POCKET BEEP AND TONE SQUELCH
Tone scan
By monitoring a signal that is being operated with the
pocket beep, tone or DTCS Squelch function turned
ON, you can determine the tone frequency or DTCS
code necessary to open the squelch.
q Set the channel to be checked for a tone frequency
or code.
w Push [TONE] several times to select the tone type
to be checked.
• One of the icons “ ,” “ ” or ” appear.
e Hold down [T-SCAN] (TONE) for 1 second to start
the tone scan.
Rotate [DIAL] to change the scanning direction.
r When the CTCSS tone frequency or DTCS code is
detected, the squelch opens and the detected tone
frequency is temporarily programmed into the mem-
ory or Call channel.
The scan pauses when a CTCSS tone frequency or
DTCS code is detected.
The detected CTCSS tone frequency or DTCS code
is used for the tone encoder or decoder, depending
on the tone condition or type selected in step w.
- No icon : Cannot be used for operation.
- : CTCSS tone encoder
- ”+“ : DTCS tone encoder
- : CTCSS tone encoder/decoder
- : DTCS tone encoder/decoder
t Push [V/MH z] to cancel the scan.
Using the HM-133V
z Set the channel to be checked for a tone frequency.
x Select the tone type to be checked.
Push [FUNC] then push; [TONE] for repeat-
er tone; [TSQL] for tone squelch; [DTCS] for
DTCS squelch.
c Push [FUNC] then [T-SCAN] to start the
tone scan.
v When the tone frequency is matched, the squelch
opens and the tone frequency is programmed into
the selected memory or Call channel.
b Push [CLR] to cancel the scan.
