VOICE OPERATED TRANSMISSION (VOX)
VOX operation allows you to transmit hands-free. This feature
must first be activated by your dealer, and can only be used if
you are using a supported headset. VOX can be turned off for
specific channels by your dealer. To activate VOX and set the
VOX Gain level, perform the following steps:
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 With the transceiver power OFF, press and hold the Side 1
key while turning the transceiver power ON.
3 Continue to hold the Side 1 key until a beep sounds.
•
The LED indicator lights orange.
When the Side 1 key is released, the transceiver will announce
•
the VOX Gain level.
4 Press the Side 1 key to set the VOX Gain level, from 1 (least
sensitive) to 10 (most sensitive).
Press the Side 2 key to enable or disable the VOX function for
•
the current channel (you can change this setting for each channel
by selecting a channel with the Channel selector). When turned
ON, a beep sounds. When turned OFF, a double beep sounds.
5 Press the PTT switch to save the setting.
•
A beep will sound.
•
The transceiver announces the new VOX Gain level.
6 Turn the transceiver power OFF and then ON again to
activate VOX.
Note:
If key lock or key lock with status memory is ON, you will be unable
◆
to enter VOX setup mode.
If a headset is connected to the transceiver while the VOX function
◆
is switched ON and the VOX Gain level is configured to a higher,
more sensitive level, louder received signals may cause the
transceiver to start transmitting.
If no operation is performed for 20 seconds, the transceiver will exit
◆
VOX setup mode.
