Battery
Warning for Mobile notifies a user by the LED or warning tone that a transmission is restricted because the battery
power of the vehicle battery is low.
If the battery power of the vehicle battery goes lower than the threshold (8.5 V), the LED flashes red and a Battery Warning
Tone sounds from the transceiver. If the battery power of the vehicle battery recovers to the threshold (8.5 V), the flashing
of the LED and the Battery Warning Tone stop.
If the power of the vehicle battery is lower than the threshold (8.5 V) when transmitting, transmission cannot occur. In this
case, while the PTT switch is being pressed. a Warning Tone A (continuous beep) sounds from the transceiver. The threshold
(8.5 V) is not determined while transmitting.
Note
For Mobile, Battery Warning cannot be configured by using KPG-D1/ D1N and always functions as above.
