VOICE ACTIVATED CONTROL (VOX)
Using the VOX feature, you can operate the transceiver
hands-free. For best operating conditions, we recommend
you use an optional headset with both an ear piece and a
microphone on a boom that rests in front of your mouth.
With VOX activated, your voice level will determine when the
transceiver transmits. Because of this, you must take care
that the ambient noise around you is not so loud that it causes
the transceiver to transmit. Due to the automatic switching
between transmission and reception, we recommend you set
the VOX gain such that it will not activate transmission when
in an area with excessive ambient noise.
Before VOX will operate, you must set a VOX Gain Level:
1 Enter the Menu Settings (page 12) and
press the or key until you reach the
“VOX” display.
2 Press the
key to set the VOX Gain
Level (
) from 1 to 3, where 3 is the most
sensitive setting, or OFF (
).
3 Press the PTT switch or turn the
transceiver power OFF to confirm your
setting.
If you have turned the VOX function ON
by selecting a VOX Gain Level other than
OFF (
), the VOX icon appears on the
display.
