The main menu shows the radios standard icons in the same way as the radios display. It also shows the active channel/talkgroup presented in text format.
When transmitting or receiving on a talkgroup or a private call the panel will show the group in use. It will also display the ID of the other radio when receiving a call.
In a quick access menu it gives the basic functions of channel/talkgroup change, volume control and display light control.
Audio Control
The audio volume is manually controlled on the touch panel.
This is done on the quick access menu. A display bar shows the actual setting.
Incomming calls
When a selective call (private call), or a text message comes in, the panel will automatically go into the radios menu system in the same way as the radios control panel does. You can then choose to handle the call or to exit the menues without action.
