Over-the-Air Programming (OTAP)

Your radio can be updated by your dealer remotely, via OTAP,

without needing to be physically connected. Additionally, some

settings can also be configured via OTAP.

While undergoing OTAP, the LED blinks green.

NOTE: When the radio is receiving high volume data, the

channel is busy. A PTT button press at this time causes

a negative tone to sound.

Once the programming is complete, a tone sounds, and your

radio restarts (powers off and on again).

Utilities

Setting the Squelch Level

You can adjust your radio's squelch level to filter out unwanted

calls with low signal strength or channels that have a higher

than normal background noise.

Settings: Normal is the default. Tight filters out (unwanted)

calls and/or background noise. However, calls from remote

locations may also be filtered out.

Procedure:

1 Press the programmed Squelch button.

2 You hear a positive indicator tone, indicating the radio is

operating in tight squelch.

You hear a negative indicator tone, indicating the radio is

operating in normal squelch.

Setting the Power Level

You can toggle your radio’s power setting between high or low

for each channel.

Settings: High enables communication with radios located at a

considerable distance from you. Low enables communication

with radios in closer proximity.

Procedure:

1 Press the programmed Power Level button.

2 You hear a positive indicator tone, indicating the radio is

transmitting at low power.
