14 OPTIONS D VOX-related settings The VOX gain, the VOX delay, and the VOX time-out timer can be set in the Set mode. q C onnect an optional headset and plug adapter cable to the transceiver, and then turn the power ON. w P ush [FUNC](M), and then [VOX](2) to turn the VOX function ON. e P ush [FUNC](M), and then [SET](8) to enter the Set mode. r P ush [] or [] to select the VOX gain (VOX), the VOX delay (VXd), or the VOX time-out timer (Vto) item. t R otate [VOL] to select a desired option. y Push [# ENT] to exit the Set mode. The VOX function does not activate transmission while in the Set mode. • VOX gain The VOX gain level can be adjusted between 1 (minimum) and 10 (maximum), or turned OFF. Higher values make the VOX function more sensitive to your voice. (default: VOX.05) The VOX function is turned OFF. The VOX gain is set to 10 (maximum). ➥ While speaking into the headset microphone, adjust the VOX gain until "On" continuously appears on the LCD. 53 Appears If "On" is intermittent, be sure the VOX delay is set long enough to allow normal pauses in speech, but keep the VOX ON until you finish speaking. ✔ CONVENIENT! While transmitting using the VOX function, you can adjust the VOX gain simply by rotating [DIAL]. • VOX delay Sets the VOX delay to between 0.5 and 3.0 sec. (in 0.5 sec. steps). The VOX delay is the amount of time the transmitter stays ON after you stop speaking. (default: VXd.10) The VOX delay is set to 1 sec. The VOX delay is set to 3 sec. • VOX time-out timer Sets the VOX time-out timer to between 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 10 and 15 min. to prevent accidental prolonged transmission for the VOX function. To turn the function OFF, select "Vto.OF." (default: Vto.03) The VOX time-out timer must be set shorter than the timeout timer, otherwise this timer will not be activated.
