BASIC OPERATION 2 D Transmitting notes D DTMF transmission 1 • Transmit inhibit function If the transceiver has [DTMF Autodial] assigned to it, the au- The transceiver has several inhibit functions which restrict tomatic DTMF transmission function can be used. 2 transmission under the following conditions: - The channel is muted ('Inaudible' mode) - The channel is busy. 3 Push [DTMF Autodial] to transmit the DTMF code. 4 - U n-matched CTCSS is received. 5 (Or matched, depending on the preprogramming) - The selected channel is a 'receive only' channel. 6 • Time-out timer 7 After continuously transmitting for the pre-programmed time 8 period, the time-out timer is activated, causing the transceiver to stop transmitting. 9 10 • Penalty timer Once the time-out timer is activated, transmission is further 11 inhibited for a period, determined by the penalty timer. 12 • PTTID call 13 The transceiver automatically sends the 5-tone, DTMF or 14 digital ANI ID code when [PTT] is pushed (beginning of the transmission), and/or when it is released (end of transmis- 15 sion), depending on the preprogramming. 16 A PTTID call also be made with the MDC 1200 signal- ing system.
