SIGNALING  
QUIET TALK (QT)/ DIGITAL QUIET TALK (DQT) [ANALOG]  
Your dealer may have programmed QT or DQT signaling on your transceiver  
channels. A QT tone/ DQT code is a sub-audible tone/ code which allows you to  
ignore (not hear) calls from other parties who are using the same channel.  
When a channel is set up with a QT tone or DQT code, squelch will only open  
when a call containing a matching tone or code is received. Likewise, signals that  
you transmit will only be heard by parties whose QT/ DQT signaling matches your  
transceiver.  
If a call containing a different tone or code is made on the same channel you  
are using, squelch will not open and you will not hear the call. This allows you to  
ignore (not hear) these calls. Although it may seem like you have your own private  
channel while using QT/ DQT, other parties can still hear your calls if they set up  
their transceiver with the same tone or code.  
Operator Selectable Tone (OST) [Analog]

button again to turn the OST function off.  
RADIO ACCESS NUMBER (RAN) [NXDN]  
RAN is a signaling system designed for NXDN digital radio communications.  
When a channel is set up with a RAN, squelch will only open when a call  
containing a matching RAN is received. If a call containing a different RAN is  
made on the same channel you are using, you will not hear the call. This allows  
you to ignore (not hear) calls from other parties who are using the same channel.  
COLOR CODE (CC) [DMR]  
Color Code is a digital signaling for DMR protocol to enable smooth  
communication among groups using the same channel.  
70  
 
OPTIONAL SIGNALING

VOICE OPERATED TRANSMISSION (VOX)  
VOX (VOX/ Semi-VOX) operation allows you to transmit hands-free. This feature  
can be activated or deactivated by your dealer. To operate VOX, you must use an  
optional headset.  
VOX Type  
VOX: When the voice level to the microphone is higher than the reference level  
(VOX Gain Level), the transceiver automatically starts transmission.  
Semi-VOX: Transmission is started by pressing the PTT switch and transmission  
continues while speaking, even after the PTT switch is released.  
The Semi-VOX function is effective in the following cases.  
•
•
Incorrect transmission due to noise.  
Voice at the start of transmission is interrupted.  
VOX Operation  
1 Connect a headset to the transceiver.  
•
The VOX function does not activate when a headset is not connected to  
the accessory terminal of the transceiver.  
2 Press the button programmed as [VOX Function].

BACKGROUND OPERATIONS  
TIME-OUT TIMER (TOT)  
The Time-out Timer is used to prevent any caller from using a channel for an  
extended period of time.  
If you continuously transmit for a period of time that exceeds the programmed  
time, the transceiver will stop transmitting and an alert tone will sound. To stop the  
tone, release the PTT switch.Your dealer can program the TOT time in the range  
of 15 seconds to 20 minutes.  
If programmed by your dealer, a pre-alert tone will sound before the timer expires.  
Also, if programmed by your dealer, you may have to wait for a short duration  
before you can continue to transmit. If you press the PTT switch before the timer  
has been reset, an alert tone will sound and the transceiver will not enter transmit  
mode.  
BATTERY SAVER  
The Battery Saver extends the battery life by reducing the battery consumption  
through intermittent monitoring of the presence of signals while on standby.  
LOW BATTERY WARNING  
Low Battery Warning alerts you when the battery needs to be recharged.Your  
dealer can set an alert tone to sound and the LED indicator to blink red when the  
battery power is low.  
When the battery power is very low, recharge or replace the battery pack.  
SIGNAL STRENGTH INDICATOR  
The signal strength indicator displays the strength of received calls.  
: Strong signal  
: Sufficient signal  
: Weak signal  
: Very weak signal

BUSY CHANNEL LOCKOUT (BCL)  
If BCL is set up by your dealer, you will be unable to transmit on the channel if it  
is already in use. Under these circumstances, use a different channel or wait until  
the channel becomes free. However, if BCL Override has also been programmed,  
you can transmit over the current signal:  
1 Press and hold the PTT switch.  
•
If the channel is already in use, a warning tone will sound.  
2 Release the PTT switch, then press and hold the PTT switch again within half  
a second.  
3 Speak to the microphone as you would during a normal call.  
The transceiver transmits according to the configuration in Busy Channel Lockout  
by dealer.  
In Analog System  
Carrier Only  
The transceiver cannot transmit when carrier is received.  
The transceiver cannot transmit when the selected channel is  
busy and QT/DQT is unmatched.  
Incorrect Tone  
The transceiver cannot transmit when the selected channel  
is busy before valid Optional Signaling matches or when the  
selected channel is busy and the programmed QT/DQT is not  
detected before valid Optional Signaling matches.  
Optional  
Signaling  
In NXDN System  
Carrier Only  
The transceiver cannot transmit when carrier is received.  
The transceiver cannot transmit when the received RAN and
