Initiating an Announcement
If your radio has been programmed to allow announcement
calls:
Procedure:
1 Press the Mode Knob to locate the announcement-group
mode.
2 Press the microphone PTT button to initiate the
announcement.
Ignition Switch Options
This feature allows the user to select the radio’s functionality
based on the Ignition State of the radio user’s vehicle. The
available options are as follows.
Blank
This option allows the user to power on and power off the radio
through the Power button regardless of the Ignition’s current
state.
Tx Inhibit
This option allows the user to power on and power off the radio
through the Power button regardless of the Ignition’s current
state. In addition, if the Ignition is not present, then all
transmissions are inhibited. This includes receiving any
Trunking dispatch communications since the radio will not
affiliate with the Trunking systems.
PTT Tx Inhibit
This option allows the user to power on and power off the radio
through the Power button regardless of the Ignition’s current
state. In addition, if the Ignition is not present, then all PTT
button transmissions are inhibited. However, the radio is able to
affiliate with the Trunking systems.
