If no signal is received for a pre-determined time, Code Squelch turns back ON. • Pressing the key programmed as Monitor at any time will turn the Code Squelch back ON. TK-7102H E 01-11 02.9.30, 1:42 PM ADVANCED OPERATIONS TIME-OUT TIMER (TOT) The purpose of the Time-out Timer is 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 a warning function to alert you before the TOT expires. Continuously transmitting for the time specified by your dealer will cause the warning tone to sound. BUSY CHANNEL LOCKOUT (BCL) The Busy Channel Lockout feature is activated or deactivated by your dealer. When activated, BCL prevents you from interfering with other parties who may be using the same channel that you selected. Pressing the PTT switch while the channel is in use will cause your transceiver to emit an alert tone and transmission will be inhibited (you cannot transmit). Release the PTT switch to stop the tone and return to receive mode. TALK AROUND You may occasionally experience an interruption in service (due to a power failure, etc.). During such an occurrence, you can continue communication by using the Talk Around feature, if it has been programmed by your dealer. Talk Around allows you to communicate directly with other transceivers, without the use of a repeater. However, if the station you want to contact is too far away, or there are geographical obstacles in the way, you may not be able to contact the station. Toggle Talk Around ON and OFF by pressing the key programmed as Talk Around. • The indicator corresponding to the Talk Around key lights while the Talk Around function is ON. • When using Talk Around, the “receive” frequency is used for both transmission and reception, and the QT/DQT “decode” signalling is used for both encoding and decoding.
