VOICE OPERATED TRANSMISSION (VOX)
VOX operation allows you to transmit hands-free. This
feature must first be activated by your dealer, and can only be
used if you are using a supported headset.
When operating VOX, you must set a VOX Gain level. This
setting allows the transceiver to recognize sound levels. If the
microphone is too sensitive, it will begin transmitting when
there is noise in the background. If it is not sensitive enough,
it will not pick up your voice when you begin speaking. Be
sure to adjust the VOX Gain level to an appropriate sensitivity
to allow smooth transmission.
To activate VOX and set the VOX Gain level, perform the
following steps:
1 Connect the headset to the
transceiver (page 7).
• The VOX function does not
activate when a headset is not
connected to the accessory
terminal of the transceiver.
2 With the transceiver power OFF,
press and hold the Side 1 key
while turning the transceiver
power ON.
3 Continue to hold the Side 1 key
until a beep sounds.
• The LED indicator lights
orange.
• When the Side 1 key is
released, the transceiver
announces the VOX Gain level.
