SPECIAL FEATURES
3.1
Water Resistance
The radio and the RSM are designed to be water resistant. Water resistance is highly
dependent on proper use/connection and condition of the radio seal elements. Therefore,
the radio should not be subject to unwarranted or casual submersion outside the function
of firefighting or routine maintenance. (If radio becomes submerged, refer to Sec. 5 for
proper maintenance).
3.2
Audible Tone at End of Transmission (a.k.a. Voice End Tone)
At the end of each transmission, the radio emits an audible tone to:
1) Inform the operator of the volume setting.
2) Indicate that the radio is functioning properly.
3) Signal the end of the transmission.
3.3
30 Second Time-Out-Timer
This feature cuts off the transmitter after 30 seconds of continuous transmission and is
especially useful to correct the "stuck-button" problem. At the RSM, the radio emits a
short audible warning tone at approximately 26 seconds and a continuous tone at
approximately 30 seconds.
The operator can re-key the PTT again if a longer transmission is required. This resets
the Time-Out-Timer.
3.4
Voice Recognition
The RSM voice recognition feature captures the member's voice and reduces background
noise, providing for clearer transmissions in noisy environments.
This indicates that the transmitter has been shut off.
