This part allows users to assign your desired features as shortcut to some keys of the radio. Every key corresponds to two kinds of operations: long press or short press. Off Monitor Scan VOX High/Low Power Emergency Basic Operations No feature is assigned to the key. To switch between Monitor Squelch Mode and Rx Squelch Mode To enable or disable the Scan feature. To enable or disable the VOX feature Switch the power between super high, high, middle and low To initiate or end an emergency alarm. In order to get the most out of your new radio, read this reference guide completely before attempting to operate the unit. Power on/off and volume adjustment To turn the radio on, keep pressed the key. To adjust the volume level as you prefer, press the [SK1/VOL+ ] or [SK2/VOL-] key. In case the radio does not pick up any signal, activate momentarily the Monitor function that allows to detect also weak signals. Then, adjust the volume to the desired level. To turn the radio off, keep pressed the key until a switch off tone is heard. Channel selection Unlock the radios, press the [CH+] / [CH-] key to step down or up to select the channel. Press and hold the [CH+] / [CH-] key to quickly switch channels down or up. When the voice prompt function is turned on, the corresponding channel is broadcast by voice. Talking on Your Radio To communicate, all radios in your group must be set to the same channel. · Initiate a call: After selecting a good channel, press and hold the [PTT] key to place a call to the current channel. Speak into the microphone with normal tone. When the call is initiated, the red LED is always on. · Receive a call: After releasing the [PTT] key, you can answer it without any action. When receiving a call, the green LED is always on. To ensure the best reception volume, keep the distance between the microphone and the mouth at the time of transmission from 2.5 cm to 5 cm. Only one user at a time can talk during radio communications. Therefore, it is important not to transmit when you are receiving a communication and use the transmission mode sparingly to allow other users to talk. Transmission consumes a significant amount of energy and should therefore be used sparingly to prolong the battery life. If you are unable to contact a station that you have no problems in receiving, the station may be using CTCSS tones or DCS codes. Monitor Note: To use this, pre program the [SK1/VOL+ ] or [SK2/VOL-] keys as Monitor function keys. The Monitor feature is for excluding (opening) the Squelch, in order to listen to signals that are too weak to keep the Squelch permanently opened. Hold down the [MONI] key to enable such function. Keypad Lock To avoid accidentally changing the radio settings, press the [SK2/VOL-] key for 3 seconds. Repeat the same procedure to unlock the keypad. Scan function The Scan feature allows you to listen to activities on a channel, keeping track of your team members. With this feature enabled, the radio searches the scan list preset for the current channel and stays on a channel with activities. Selected intercom channel 16, after opening the scan, the terminal will scan according to the scan list, the channel scanning when there is an event; will stay on the channel to listen to understand the current status of activities related members. General CPS programming software set the Scan Add option of the frequency list, the setting range: Yes/No. Select YES to activate the channel scan function and No to cancel the channel scan function. The factory default set of channels 16 open to a scanning function When there are less than 2 scan cable channels, the radio cannot scan. Voice Operated TransmitVOX Note: To use this, pre program the [VOL+ ] or [VOL-] keys as VOX function keys. The Voice Operated Transmit (VOX) feature allows you to transmit voice without pressing and holding the [PTT] key. The radio automatically transmits voice when the volume reaches the preset level. A higher gain level indicates lower sensitivity, which requires higher volume for triggering transmission. You can set the sensitivity of the microphone voice emitted by voice gain. The higher the voice-activated gain level, the lower the sensitivity and the louder the volume of voice required for the terminal to transmit. Please set the gain level correctly according to the current environment and the volume of the speech, etc., so as to avoid frequent accidental triggering of voice control (high sensitivity) or difficulty in triggering voice control (low sensitivity). Voice is used to control the gain sensitivity of the microphone voice emitted, arranged by the dealer. General CPS programming software, set Vox Lever option, setting range: off / 1/2 / 3 / 4 / 5 / 6 / 7 / 8 / 9. Select off to turn Squelch The Squelch function suppresses noises on free channels and allows receiving even weak signals. M9 has 10 different Squelch levels that can be set by programming software: 0 means that the Squelch is turned off; from level 1 to level 9 you will have different levels of noise reduction. The higher is the level, the louder will be the Squelch. By default, the Squelch level of M9 is set on level 4. Make sure you do not set an excessively high squelch level because in this case you may not be able to receive weaker signals. On the other hand an excessively low Squelch value could enable the Squelch even when no signals are present. Squelch must always be adjusted when no signals are present. Emergency Alert The Emergency Alert feature can be used to signal members in your group for help. To use this, pre program the [VOL+ ] or [VOL-] keys as Emergency function keys.

Wireless Replication Select channel to channel 2, press and hold the [VOL-] and key to turn on both the transmitter and receiver. The receiver and transmitter prompt "beep" to enter wireless replication. When the transmitter presses the [PTT] key, the red light remains on, and the receiver green light automatically remains on. Copy all the configuration parameters of channels 1-16 of the transmitter, and the receiver prompts "beep" twice to complete the replication. Both prompt lights turn off and automatically restart, the replication task has ended. CTCSS/DCS tones CTCSS and DCS tones are similar to access codes and enable the radio to communicate only with the users that are tuned on the same channel and have set the same code. For each channel, you can set up to 50 CTCSS tones and 210 DCS codes. The CTCSS/DCS tones are a sort of "access codes" and enable the radio to communicate only with the other users set on the same frequency and on the same CTCSS/DCS tone. Undesired signals coming from other stations set on the same frequency but with different CTCSS/DCS tones won't be received.
