Setting the Battery Save Function
The battery save feature conserves energy when

channel and it is not actively scanning. The
scanner repeatedly turns off the internal power for
one second, and then turns it back on for half a
second to check for a transmission.

Setting CTCSS/DCS
The CTCSS/DCS feature allows squelch to open
only when the tone you have programmed with
a specific frequency is received along with a
transmission. If the scanner detects the tone, it
displays the tone’s frequency and DCS code.
To turn the CTCSS/DCS feature on or off, Press
FUNC + CL/CTCSS/DCS. The scanner displays,
”CTCSS/DCS ON” or “CTCSS/DCS OFF” for one second.
