Selected channel: the first channel in the scan list.
Auxiliary Functions
Note: The relevant setting about TOT can be set by PC
software.
Time-Out Timer (TOT)
The time-out-timer can prevent the user from continuously
talking overlong and prevent the radio from heating due to
continuous transmitting.
If you continuously transmit longer than the preset TOT time,
the radio will make an alert tone and stop transmitting.
TOT Pre-alert
The radio will make an alert tone in advance before the TOT
terminates the transmission. After the alert tone, when the
time of transmission exceeds the pre-set time, the TOT timer
will act.
TOT Rekey Time
A period during when the radio is forbidden to transmit after
its overtime activity.
During the period, if the PTT button is pressed, an alert tone
will be sounded, and the transmission is forbidden.
TOT Reset Time
The time delay from releasing the PTT button to the resetting
of the timer is limited.
The countdown will go on if the time after releasing the PTT
key is shorter than the reset time.
Busy Channel Lockout (BCL)
If the channel on which a user attempts to transmit is being
used by another party, BCL function restricts the transmission
in order to avoid interfering with the other parties'
communication, and the radio will make an alert tone, and
returns to the receiving state.
Default setting: Disabled, i.e. the radio can transmit at any
time.
Battery Saving
The battery saving function can reduce power consumption
of the radio when no signal is received and no operation is
conducted (no button is pressed and no knob is turned).
If the radio hasn't receive any signal or no operation is being
conducted for 16 seconds, the radio will enter Battery Saving
Mode. When a signal is received or any operation occurs, the
radio will exit the Battery Saving Mode automatically.
Low Battery Warning
When the battery voltage drops to the pre-set value, low
battery warning tone sounds every 10 seconds. And the
radio turns off automatically in very low battery. You need to
recharge or change the battery.
Squelch Level
The squelch function is enabled to mute the speaker when
there is no signal to be received. Enable squelch, you can
hear the background noise from the speaker. Disable squelch,
the noise cannot be heard.
The squelch level determines when the squelch function
should be on. If the selected level is too high, the weak signal
cannot be heard; if the selected level is too low, the signal
will be mixed with the background noise. Squelch level can
be set by PC software. Range: 0-9. The default setting is 5.
CTCSS/DSC
CTCSS/DSC of PT260 can be programmed by PC software.
The range of CTCSS/DSC signal tone can be 67~254,
1/D023~D777 respectively.
CTCSS/DCS tones may have been pre-programmed on some
radio channels. A CTCSS/DCS tone is a sub-audible tone,
which allows you to realize selected call and group call.
When you receive a signal that has a tone different from the
one set on your radio, you will not hear the signal. Likewise,
signals that you transmit will only be received by parties whose
CTCSS/DCS tones are the same as yours.
Voice Annunciation
If voice notice is enable in standby state, press voice notice
button to hear which channel the radio stays.
Wired clone
Enable wired clone function. If the radio enters into this mode,
it will not exit to the user mode until you restart the radio. The
steps of wired clone are as follows:
1. Press and hold Monitor button to turn on the radio. Red LED
flashes after 2 seconds, and the radio enters into clone mode.
2. Press Monitor button, Red LED flashes, and start to clone
the data. Red LED lights off when finishing clone.
