Kenwood TK-3360 Operation Manual 2 - Page 28

BACKGROUND OPERATIONS Your dealer can activate a variety of transceiver functions to perform without any additional operation on your part. TIME-OUT TIMER (TOT) The Time-out Timer is used to prevent you from using a channel for an extended duration. If you continuously transmit for a preset time, the transceiver will stop transmitting and an alert tone will sound. Release the PTT switch. BATTERY SAVER The Battery Saver decreases the amount of power used when a signal is not being received and no operations are being performed. LOW BATTERY WARNING Low Battery Warning alerts you when the battery needs to be recharged. Your dealer can set an alert tone to sound and the LED indicator to blink red when the battery power is low. Recharge or replace the battery pack at this time. PTT ID PTT ID is the transceiver unique ID code which is sent each time the PTT switch is pressed and/or released. COMPANDER If programmed by your dealer for a channel, the compander will remove excessive noise from transmitted signals, to provide higher clarity of signals. BUSY CHANNEL LOCKOUT (BCL) If BCL is set up by your dealer, you will be unable to transmit if the channel is already in use. Use a different channel or wait until the channel becomes free. 18
