The PRMT option in the Radio Programming menu provides the following options (see Figure 4-1):
Option Description
BAUD
Selects the data transmission rate of the internal modem:
• 1.2 – 1200 bps
• 2.4 – 2400 bps
• 4.8 – 4800 bps
• 9.6 – 9600 bps.
DPWR
Selects the maximum transmit power for data transmission, that is, for a transmission
initiated by the data PTT. The available selections are:
• LOW – 5 W nominal
• MED – 10 W nominal
• HIGH – 15 W nominal
• MAX – 25 W nominal.
The transmit power used in the other modes is independently selected for each channel.
If the selected data transmit power exceeds the transmit power configured on the
operating channel, the radio will use the lower channel transmit power.
MST
Enables/disables the sidetone heard in the speaker when you transmit using the
microphone.
AST
Enables/disables the speaker sidetone when you transmit using an accessory connected
through the rear panel (not relevant).
PTBP
Enables/disables the transmission of a beep when the local push-to-talk (PTT) button is
released. This beep is used to notify the other stations that the local (your) radio set has
stopped transmitting and returned to the receive mode: therefore, another radio can start
transmitting.
KBBP
Enables/disables the keypad beep. When enabled, a beep is heard whenever a valid key
is pressed.
TONE
Select the keypad beep level: high or low. The selection is relevant only when the keypad
beep is enabled.
ADT
Selects the alternate display time-out, that is, the time after which a keypad sequence is
automatically aborted in case no action is taken. In this case, the display returns to the
previous screen.
The time-out interval can be selected in the range of 1 to 10 seconds.
ATTN
Enables/disables the use of an internal RF attenuator. The attenuator is used to reduce
interference when your radio is located near strong transmitters.
