2-TONE SIGNALLING
2-Tone Signalling is enabled or disabled by your dealer. This
function opens the squelch only when the transceiver receives
the two tones programmed in your transceiver, in succession.
Transceivers that do not transmit the correct tones will not be
heard.
Your dealer may also activate Group Call for your transceiver.
Group Call sends on the first tone of the 2-Tone signal when a
call is made.
RECEIVING
When you receive a signal containing the correct tones,
squelch opens and you will hear the call.
The LED indicator flashes orange.
•To mute the speaker after squelch opens, press the key
programmed as Monitor Momentary or Monitor Toggle.
•Your dealer can program the squelch to close again after a
specific time period elapses.
If Transpond for 2-Tone Signalling is programmed, an
acknowledgment signal is returned to the calling station.
If Call Alert for 2-Tone Signalling is programmed, an alert tone will
sound when the correct tones are received.
TRANSMITTING
To transmit a 2-Tone signal, press and hold the PTT switch,
then press the key programmed as 2-Tone Encode and
continue your call as normal.
If Single Tone has been activated, only the first tone of the
2-Tone signal will be transmitted, activating the Group Call
function.
