CTCSS/DCStones
CTCSSand DCS tones are similar to access codes and enable the radio to communicate only with the users that are tuned on
the same channel and have set the same code. For each channel, you can set up to 50 CTCSStones and 210 DCS codes. The
CTCSS/DCS tones are a sort of "access codes" and enable the radio to communicate only with the other users set on the
same frequency and on the same CTCSS/DCS tone. Undesired signals coming from other stations set on the same
frequency but with different CTCSS/DCStones won't be received.
Prompt voice switch settings
The encoder is selected to the 10th channel. Press and hold the PTT and Side Key 1 to turn on the radio, and turn the
prompt voice on or off.
Turn on the prompt voice function, and there will be voice prompts when the encoder is turned on or operated. If you turn
off the prompt voice function, there is only a "beep" prompt when you turn on or operate the encoder.
Emergency alert function
If necessary, you can pre-program the Side Key 1 into the Alarm function via CPS programming software.
Turn on the radio, short press the Side Key 1 to turn on the alarm function. Press the Side Key 1 again to release the
emergency alarm status.

vox
The VOX feature enables hands free conversations without using PTT:just speak in the direction of the microphone and the
communication will be automatically activated. The VOX sensitivity can be adjusted in 5 different levels (1...5) through the
programming software:
Level 2 is set by default and has the lowest VOX sensitivity, 5 is the lowest one.
With the programming software you can enable/disable the VOXfeature and select the sensitivity levels.
