A similar set of functions to that shown on the previous page can be programmed
into the speaker microphone buttons but equally, they can be left unprogrammed if
preferred.
Both the orange buttons, F7 on the radio itself and F10 on the speaker microphone
can be programmed with the FFSK alarm function (see later). In this case only, they
are independent of the KeyPad Lock.
Although there is nothing to prevent further experimentation, the settings shown
under ‘GPS Settings’ have been shown to work well. The two values set to 0
cause the GPS engine to be powered up all the time. This is the most costly in
terms of battery consumption and will require a further 80mA to power the GPS
engine. To date this has not caused any battery life problems.
The Man-Down function monitors the vertical angle of the speaker microphone but
is not used due to the likelihood of the microphone deliberately being placed in the
condition where it would trigger the alarm such as when attached to a ruck sack
which is subsequently placed on the ground.
