Even though the console is recording, message play is still possible. If a message is
playing when recording starts, it is paused, as indicated on the display. NOTE:
Message play will be continuous when your console is set up for radio
communications monitoring.
To continue playing the message, PLAY is pressed. Pressing STOP enables
MESSAGE SEARCH mode while recording. In this mode it is possible to monitor the
recorded call live from the console speaker. As shown in Figure 10, the MON button
can be pressed to enable monitoring. While monitoring, the clock display will
increment in real-time, and the call duration counter will count up in real-time, with the
call.
NOTE: Lower speaker volume during monitoring to prevent possible feedback
from the operator microphone.
