NOTICE:
The four levels available for battery status are: High,

Transmitting and Receiving
•
Listen through the speaker to receive.
•
Press the PTT (Push to Talk) button and wait to hear
the Talk Permit Tone (TPT), a quick double beep to talk.
Release the PTT to listen.
•
The Tx/Rx Indicator blinks slowly red when on standby.
When the radio is transmitting, the Tx/Rx Indicator is
solid red.
•
When the radio is receiving, the Tx/Rx Indicator LED
blinks red quickly.
IMPORTANT:
When talking on the radio, make sure not to release
the PTT button at any given time. Whether you are
transmitting using the PTT button or using an in-line
PTT on the earpiece accessory, always ensure the
PTT button is pressed firmly until the transmission is
finished. Releasing the PTT button while
transmitting and trying to immediately press the PTT
button again causes the radio to give a loud denial
tone.
Wait for two seconds and press PTT again to
continue speaking. If you press the PTT button to
transmit and a busy tone is received instead of a
TPT, this means the channel is either not available,
busy or there are no users reachable within
transmission range.
Talk Permit Tone (TPT)
Talk Permit Tone (TPT) is a quick distinctive double beep
tone that sounds after you press the PTT button, indicating
the channel is free to talk.
TPT is useful in ensuring orderly communications by
preventing radios from transmitting over ongoing
conversations.
