Over-the-Air Programming (OTAP)
Your radio can be updated by your dealer remotely, via OTAP,
without needing to be physically connected. Additionally, some
settings can also be configured via OTAP.
While undergoing OTAP, the LED blinks green.
NOTE: When the radio is receiving high volume data, the
channel is busy. A PTT button press at this time
causes a negative tone to sound.
Once the programming is complete, a tone sounds, and your
radio restarts (powers off and on again).
Utilities
Setting the Squelch Level
You can adjust your radio's squelch level to filter out unwanted
calls with low signal strength or channels that have a higher
than normal background noise.
Settings: Normal is the default. Tight filters out (unwanted)
calls and/or background noise. However, calls from remote
locations may also be filtered out.
Procedure:
1 Press the programmed Squelch button.
2 You hear a positive indicator tone, indicating the radio is
operating in tight squelch.
OR
You hear a negative indicator tone, indicating the radio is
operating in normal squelch.
