Sharing a multi-head radio with other users
Your radio may be installed with multiple control heads, so
you can share the radio with other users. Elements of the
user interface (such as display content, internal speaker
audio, and LEDs) are duplicated on all control heads. When
sharing the radio with other users:
■ wait until other users have finished before using the
radio. The radio may be in use if the red transmit LED is
glowing, there is audio from the speaker, or there is user-
related activity (such as scrolling) on the display.
■ you can change the display contrast and the volume
without impacting on other users.
■ features such as backlighting and indicator volume apply
to all control heads. Consider other users before changing
these features of the user interface.
Listening to outgoing transmissions
Your radio may be programmed so you can hear outgoing
transmissions initiated from other control heads. You may
need to remove the microphone from the microphone clip to
hear these transmissions.
Identifying your control head type
Some actions apply to the primary control head only, such as
adjusting the volume of a remote speaker.
To check whether your control head
is the primary or secondary head:
1 Select Menu>Radio settings>
Radio info>Multi head info.
2 Press Select to view the control
head type.
In the example shown, the
control head is the primary head.
