FIELD DEFINITIONS:
Monitor Type
This option determines how the radio unmutes when the monitor button is pressed. Silent Monitor, also called PL
Defeat, allows the user to monitor the channel before transmitting. Factory default is Open Squelch.
Open Squelch - When this option is enabled, the radio will always unmute, even on noise, when the monitor
button is pressed.
Silent - Radio will be carrier squelched in Monitor mode.
Latch Enable Tone
The monitor button may be momentarily pressed, or may be latched by pressing the monitor button for a short
period of time (Latch Enable Time). This option causes the radio to give a short beep each time the permanent
monitor function has been enabled. Permanent monitor is cancelled by pressing the monitor button again.
Factory default is Disabled.
Latch Enable Time (sec)
Values between 0.0 and 6.0 seconds may be selected in 0.5 second increments. Select Disable (0) to turn off
this option.
Smart PTT Retry Timer (ms)
Values between 0 and 5000 ms may be selected in 25 ms increments. When Smart PTT is enabled, this field
adjusts the period at which the radio will sample for a clear channel. Factory default is 275 ms.
Smart PTT Quick Key Timer (ms)
Values between 100 and 5000 ms may be selected in 100 ms increments. When smart PTT is enabled, a quick
key (double press) of the PTT button can override the feature and cause the radio to transmit although the
channel is busy. The timer determines the maximum amount of time between PTT presses, i.e., how fast the
user must press the PTT button to override. Factory default is 500 ms.
Hub Defeats PL
When HUB Defeats PL is enabled, PL/DPL will be disabled when the microphone is removed from the hang up
box. This allows for monitoring of a conventional channel to prevent transmitting during another conversation.
Factory default is Disabled.
Note
This feature is only applicable to portable radios when a Vehicular Adapter is used.
Direct Frequency Enabled
If the Direct Frequency flag is Enabled, the user can enter if the direct frequency in the conventional Personality
Screen (F4/F6/F3) and change it. Direct Frequency flag is Disabled and the direct frequency will be copied from
the conventional Rx frequency.
Last Number Redial
When this feature is Enabled, the last number that was dialed will appear on the display and transmit when PTT
is pressed.
When this feature is Disabled, the last number that was dialed will be cleared.
This feature is only available on MT2000 radios with R02.00 firmware or later. R02.00 was initially shipped in
October 1994. The factory default is Enabled.
