Motorola GP-68

Basic Operations
16
NOTE
Unless disabled (‘dot’ indicator flashes on the LCD
Screen (18)
), PTT ID tones are heard as they are
being transmitted (see “
PTT ID” on page 17). You
can start your conversation when the tones end.
NOTE
The ‘TX’ indicator lights up on the LCD Screen (18)
when the Push-To-Talk (PTT) Button (6) is pressed.
IMPORTANT
Whenever you transmit a message, you are using
the resources of the transmitting channel. Speaking
for long periods of time would deprive others from
using that channel.
NOTE
The maximum duration for transmission is deter-
mined by the value of the
Time-Out-Timer (see “ Edit-
ing the Time-Out Timer Duration”
on page 33).
Once you reach the time limit, a
Time-Out Timer Alert
tone is sounded, and the transmission is cut off.
Receiving
• If the Push-To-Talk (PTT) Button (6) is pressed,
release it and listen for incoming messages.
NOTE
Make sure the volume level is set properly, or else
you may receive a message but are unaware about it.
