Busy channel Channel busy lock can prevent interference from other terminals on the same channel during lock transmission. When other terminals occupy the current channel, press and hold the [PTT] key, and the terminal will emit a "beep" tone, indicating that it cannot be transmitted. If the current channel is free, press and hold the [PTT] key to start transmission. Power level The power level refers to the transmit power level of the walkie-talkie, which can be set to high power or low power. High power can increase the signal strength of the current transmitted voice of the terminal, and it can also communicate with the remote terminal. Low power can save power. MONI Monitoring is a listening method used to receive more signals or weak signals, which helps to distinguish and listen to the faint sounds in the speakers. Channel It is used to indicate the sequence of the current channel. broadcast VOX After turning on the voice control, when the voice detected by the microphone meets the transmission conditions, the terminal will automatically transmit the voice, and you can speak directly without pressing the [PTT] key.
