Setting the Sensitivity Level When in or Mode Adjusting the radio's sensitivity level helps minimize the possibility of unintended noises triggering a transmission and helps the radio pick up soft voices. 1. Press until VOX and the level setting (1-3) appear on the display. 2. Press or to select the sensitivity level. 3. Press to set or to continue set up. 3 = High Sensitivity for quiet environments 2 = Medium Sensitivity for most environments 1 = Low Sensitivity for noisy environments Note: When you connect a headset, the radio is automatically set to the last chosen sensitivity level. QT Noise Filtering The QT noise-filtering feature helps to ensure uninterrupted communication with other Motorola radios that have this feature. This feature also filters out unwanted transmissions from other radios. This is useful in places where there is heavy radio traffic, such as amusement parks or ski resorts. Note: QT noise filtering is not available when the radio is scanning. To turn QT noise filtering on or off: 1. Press until displays. The current setting On/Off will flash. 2. Press or to turn noise filtering On or Off. 3. Press to confirm your selection or to continue set up. To transmit to a radio that has QT noise filtering turned on: 1. Select the same channel and Interference Eliminator Code as the other radio. 2. Press to send a call tone. This allows your voice to pass through the QT noise filter on the receiving radio. 3. Press and speak normally. Note: If you skip step 2, the beginning of your message may not be heard on the receiving radio. For a 30-second period, starting after the last transmission, all transmissions received on the selected channel and code will pass through the QT noise filter. Keypad Tones You may enable or disable the speaker key tones. You will hear the key tone each time a button is pushed. 1. Press until appears. The current setting On/Off will flash. 2. Press either or to turn On or Off. 3. Press to confirm or to continue set up.

Scanning Channels Use scan to search the 22 channels for transmissions from unknown parties, to find someone in your group who has accidentally changed channels, or to quickly find unused channels for your own use. There is a priority feature and 2 modes of scanning (basic and advanced) to make your search more effective. The basic scan mode uses the channel and code combinations for each of the 22 channels as you have set them (or with the default code value of 1). The "Advanced Scan" mode will scan all channels for any and all codes, detect any code in use, and use that code value temporarily for that channel. Priority is given to the "home channel," that is, the channel (and Interference Eliminator Code) your radio was set to when you start the scan. This means the initial channel (and code setting) is scanned more often than the other 21 channels, and your radio will respond quickly to any activity occurring on the home channel as a priority. To start Scanning: 1. Briefly press the key. The scan will appear in the display, and the radio will begin to scroll through the channel and code combinations. 2. When the radio detects channel activity matching the channel and code combination, it stops scrolling and you can hear the transmission. 3. To respond and talk to the person transmitting, press within five seconds after the end of the transmission. 4. The radio will resume scrolling through the channels five seconds after the end of any received activity. 5. To stop scanning, briefly press the key. To start Advanced Scanning: 1. Set the Interference Eliminator Code to "zero" or OFF. 2. Briefly press the key. The scan will appear in the display, and the radio will begin to scroll through the channels. No Interference Eliminator Codes will filter what is heard. 3. When the radio detects channel activity with ANY code (or NO code), it stops scrolling and you can hear the transmission. Any Interference Eliminator Code that may be in use by that party will be detected and displayed. 4. To respond and talk to the person transmitting, press within five seconds of the end of the transmission. The radio will transmit using the newly detected Interference Eliminator Code. 5. The radio will resume scrolling through the channels five seconds after the end of any received activity. 6. To stop scanning, briefly press the key. Scanning Notes: 1. If you press while the radio is scrolling through inactive channels, the transmission will be on the "home channel". Scanning will resume five seconds after the end of your transmission. You may press the key to stop scanning at any time. 2. If the radio stops on an undesired transmission, you may immediately resume the scan by briefly pressing or . 3. If the radio repeatedly stops on an undesired transmission, you may temporarily remove that channel from the scan list by pressing and holding or for three seconds. You may remove more than one channel in this way. 4. To restore the removed channel(s) to the scan list, turn the radio off and then back on, or exit and re-enter the scanning mode by pressing . 5. You cannot remove the home channel from the scan list. 6. In Advanced Scan, the detected code will only be used for one transmission. You must note the code, exit scan, and set that detected code on that channel to permanently use the detected code.
