Muting the transceiver
Muting allows you to silence the transceiver so that you do
not hear unwanted background noise on the channel until you
receive a call.
Three buttons control the mute setting of the transceiver:
• the
Voice Mute
button on the control panel
• the
S'Call Mute
button on the control panel (selects
selcall mute)
• the
Mute
button on the microphone.
The Voice Mute button on the control panel
Select voice mute if you expect to receive voice calls. Voice
mute silences the transceiver until a voice call is detected.
When the transceiver is not scanning for incoming calls, the
Voice Mute
button switches voice mute on and off. The red
indicator at the top left of the button is on when voice mute is
selected.
When the transceiver is scanning, the
Voice Mute
button is
used to switch between:
•
Pause Scan
to stop scanning and switch off the mute
for five seconds when a voice call is detected
•
Hold Scan
to stop scanning and switch off the mute for
as long as the voice call is detected
•
Scanning
to continue scanning with mute switched off.
Changing the volume, clarifier setting or channel
momentarily switches off mute.
