VGS-1 OPTIONAL VOICE GUIDE & STORAGE UNIT
When using the optional VGS-1 voice guide & storage unit, you gain access to
the voice recorder and voice announcement functions. Ask your dealer for
details.
VOICE RECORDER
The voice recorder provides you with an auto recorder to record your
conversations and a voice memo function to create voice memos.
The voice recorder can store a combined maximum of 300 seconds (5 minutes)
of recordings in blocks of up to 30 seconds each.
■ AUTO RECORDING
If activated, the auto recording will continuously record all transmitted and
received signals. The recording storage area retains 30 seconds of
recording, so all transmitted and received signals are simultaneously
recorded and erased, leaving only the last 30 seconds of recording in
memory.
• The auto recording indicator (KCH-14: / KCH-15: )
appears when this function is activated.
■ VOICE MEMOS
To record a voice memo, for later playback:
1 Press and hold the key programmed as Playback for 1 second.
• The duration of recording memory will appear on the display and begin
counting down.
2 Speak into the microphone to record your voice memo.
• Pressing the microphone PTT switch at this time will transmit your message as
well as record it. Do not press the microphone PTT switch if you do not want to
transmit your message.
3 Press the PF 2, PF 4, or DTMF key to end the recording at any time and
store it into the transceiver memory.
• Press the PF 1 key to cancel the recording at any time. The recording is not
stored to memory in this case.
• If the memory becomes full, recording will stop automatically and store the
voice memo to memory.
• “WRITING” appears on the display while the recording is being stored to
memory.
