BACKGROUND OPERATIONS  
time-out timer (tot)  
The Time-out Timer prevents callers from using a channel  
for an extended duration. If you continuously transmit for the  
duration programmed by your dealer (default is ꢀ minute),  
transmission will stop and an alert tone will sound. To stop the  
tone, release the PTT switch.  
BAttery SAver  
When activated by your dealer, the Battery Saver function  
decreases the amount of power used after no signal is present  
and no operations are being performed for 5 seconds. When a  
signal is received or an operation is performed, Battery Saver  
turns off.  
Note: While the Battery Saver is operating, the LED may flash  
green when receiving a QT/DQT signal which does not match the  
QT/DQT tone/code set up in your transceiver.  
low BAttery wArning  
While operating the transceiver, the Low Battery Warning  
sounds an alert tone every 30 seconds and the LED indicator  
blinks red when the battery needs recharged or replaced.

When activated, BCL prevents you from interfering on a  
channel that is already in use. Pressing the PTT switch will  
cause an alert tone to sound and the transceiver will not  
transmit. Release the PTT switch to stop the tone.  
Note: Ask your dealer for an explanation on how BCL functions  
when using QT, DQT, DTMF, or FleetSync signaling.

simple remote control applications.  
The DTMF decode capabilities include Selective Call ID,  
Transpond with ID, and “Wild Card” Group Calling.
