Your dealer programs the Revert channel for your transceiver with one of the following six types:

Selected: The last channel selected prior to Scan is the Revert channel. Selected + Talkback: While the transceiver is paused on a channel during Scan, pressing the PTT switch will allow you to transmit (talk back) on the current channel. Otherwise, the last channel selected prior to Scan is the Revert channel. Priority: If your dealer has programmed a Priority channel, this channel is the Revert channel. Priority + Talkback: While the transceiver is paused on a channel during Scan, pressing the PTT switch will allow you to transmit (talk back) on the current channel. Otherwise, the Priority channel is the Revert channel. Last Called: The last channel on which a call was received is the Revert channel, even if Scan has already resumed. Last Used: The last channel on which you transmitted is the Revert channel. 13 DTMF CALLS Note: To make DTMF calls, you must have an optional microphone with a DTMF keypad. STORE & SEND 1 Enter the desired digits on the microphone keypad. You can enter a maximum of 16 digits (0 ~ 9, A ~ D, The digits appear on the display as you enter them.

STUN This function is used when a transceiver is stolen or lost. When the transceiver receives a call containing a stun code, either transmit mode will be disabled, or both receive mode and transmit mode will be disabled. The stun code is cancelled when the transceiver receives a call with a revive code. 15 QUIET TALK (QT)/ DIGITAL QUIET TALK (DQT) 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) You can change the preset encode and decode tones for the selected channel. Up to 40 tones can be pre-programmed by your dealer. 1 Select your desired channel. 2 Press the key programmed as Operator Selectable Tone. or the OST name or number appears on the display. 3 Press the <B and C> keys to select the desired OST name/ number. 4 Use the transceiver the same as in a regular call; press the PTT switch to transmit and release it to receive. 5 To exit OST mode and return to the preset encode and decode tones, press the S key. 16 CODE SQUELCH (ID CODE) Code Squelch is enabled or disabled by your dealer. This function turns the transceiver squelch OFF only when it receives the DTMF ID code that has been set up in your transceiver. Transceivers that do not transmit the correct code will not be heard. Consequently, you can communicate with a specific party without listening to other parties using the same channel. Your dealer may also activate Group Call for your transceiver. This is useful when you want to send information to a number of units in a fleet. Ask your dealer for details. Note: Code Squelch cannot be used on this transceiver if Selective Call {page 18} or DTMF Number Display {page 23} have been programmed. RECEIVING When you receive a signal containing the correct ID code, the squelch opens and you will hear the call. The The TX/RX indicator flashes orange. To mute the speaker after the squelch opens, press the key programmed as Monitor. Your dealer can program the transceiver to mute the speaker after a specified time icon appears on the display and blinks. period elapses. If Transpond is programmed, an acknowledgment signal is returned to the calling station. Transpond does not function when you are called with a Group code. Transpond can send an alert tone, a transceiver ID code, or autodial memory location number 1 (refer to STORING DTMF NUMBERS on page 14). If Call Alert is programmed, an alert tone will sound when the correct ID code is received. TRANSMITTING 1 Press and hold the PTT switch. 2 Enter the ID code of the transceiver you want to call or enter a Group code on the microphone keypad. 3 Use the transceiver the same as in a regular call; press the PTT switch to transmit and release it to receive. The icon appears on the display. When you release the PTT switch, the squelch opens. If no signal is received for a pre-determined time, the speaker will mute. Pressing the key programmed as Monitor at any time will mute the speaker. 17 SELECTIVE CALL Selective Call is enabled or disabled by your dealer. This function is similar to Code Squelch {page 17}. The differences from Code Squelch are:

You can send or receive Status codes containing up to 5 digits. Selective Call opens the squelch only when the transceiver receives a predetermined DTMF code in the correct sequence (3-digit or 4-digit ID code 1-digit Intermediate code Status code of up to 5 digits). Your dealer may also activate Group Call for your transceiver. This is useful when you want to send information to a number of units in a fleet. Ask your dealer for details. Note: Selective Call cannot be used on this transceiver if Code Squelch {page 17} or DTMF Number Display {page 23} have been programmed. RECEIVING When you receive the correct ID and Intermediate codes, the squelch opens and you will hear the call. If a Status code is also received, the code will appear on the display. For example, if the Status code 12345 was received, appears on the display. ( appears in place of for group calls.) The When no Status code is received You can clear the Status code by pressing any key or returning the microphone to its hook. To mute the speaker after squelch opens, press the key programmed as Monitor. Your dealer can program the transceiver to mute the speaker after a specified time icon appears on the display and blinks. appears on the display. period elapses.
