programmed on a channel, the radio will not transmit when a carrier is present. Instead, the radio
will generate short beep three times and indicate
“* ERROR *” on the display. Release the PTT
switch and wait for the channel to be clear of activity.
VX-P920/-P970 OPERATING MANUAL

 If CTCSS or Digital Coded Squelch (DCS) Lockout has been programmed on a channel, the radio
can transmit only when there is no carrier being
received or when the carrier being received includes the correct CTCSS tone or DCS code.
Automatic Time-Out Timer
If the selected channel has been programmed for
automatic time-out, you must limit the length of each
transmission. While transmitting, a beep will sound
10 seconds before time-out. Another beep will sound
just before the deadline; the “TX” indicator will disappear and transmission will cease soon thereafter.
To resume transmitting, you must release the PTT
switch and wait for the “penalty timer” to expire.

ARTS (AUTO RANGE TRANSPOND SYSTEM)
DTMF PAGING SYSTEM
This system is designed to inform you when you and
another ARTS-equipped station are within communication range.
This system allows paging and selective calling, using DTMF tone sequences.
During ARTS operation, when the radio receives the
correct ARTS signal, a short beep will sound and the
“In” (meaning “In Service” notation will be displayed
on the sub-LCD. If you move out of range for more
than two minutes, your radio senses that no signal
has been received; three short beeps will sound, and
“Out” (“Out of Service”) will be displayed on the
sub-LCD. If you subsequently move back into range,
as soon as the other station transmits, a short beep
will sound and “In” will be displayed again on the
sub-LCD.

When your radio is paged by a station bearing a tone
sequence which matches yours, your radio’s squelch
will open and the alert will sound. The three-digit
code of the station which paged you will be displayed
on your radio’s LCD.
