The Scanning feature is used to monitor multiple channels programmed into the

transceiver. While scanning, the radio will check each channel for the presence of

a signal, and will stop on a channel if a signal is present.


To activate scanning:

Press (or Press and hold) the assigned Programmable key.

The scanner will search the channels, looking for active ones; it will pause

each time it finds a channel on which someone is speaking.



To stop scanning:

Press (or Press and hold) the assigned Programmable key.

Operation will revert to the channel to which the CH knob is set.

The Dual Watch feature is similar to the Scan feature, except that only two chan-

nels are monitored: the current operating channel, and the “Priority” channel.



To activate Dual Watch:

Press (or Press and hold) the assigned Programmable key.

The scanner will search the two channels; it will pause each time it finds a

channel on which someone is speaking.



To stop Dual Watch:

Press (or Press and hold) the assigned Programmable key.

Operation will revert to the channel to which the CH knob is set.

Press (or Press and hold) the assigned Programmable key to set the radio’s

transmitter to the “Low Power” mode, thus extending battery life. Press (or Press

and hold) the assigned Programmable key again to return to “High Power” op-

eration when in difficult terrain.

When the radio’s transmitter is set to “Low Power” mode, the “L” icon will be

indicated on the LCD (LCD version).

Press (or Press and hold) the assigned Programmable key to activate the Talk

Around feature when you are operating on duplex channel systems (separate

receive and transmit frequencies, utilizing a “repeater” station). The Talk Around

feature allows you to bypass the repeater station and talk directly to a station that

is nearby. This feature has no effect when you are operating on “Simplex” chan-

nels, where the receive and transmit frequencies are already the same.

When the “TA” function is activated, the “ ” icon will be indicated on the LCD

(LCD version).

Press (or Press and hold) the assigned Programmable key to disable the Trans-

mit Battery Saver, if you are operating in a location where high power is almost

always needed.

The Transmit Battery Saver helps extend battery life by reducing transmit power

when a very strong signal from an apparently nearby station is being received.

Under some circumstances, though, your hand-held radio may not be heard well

at the other end of the communication path, and high power may be necessary at

all times.

When the Voice Scrambler feature is enabled, pressing the assigned Program-

mable key of the “Encryption” toggles the Scrambler “on” and “off.”

All versions of the VX-350 provide [Side 1] and [Side 2] keys. The LCD ver-

sion of the VX-350 provide [A], [B], [C], and [D] function keys. These “Pro-

grammable” keys functions can be customized (set to other functions), via pro-

gramming by your VERTEX STANDARD dealer, to meet your communications/

network requirements. Some features may require the purchase and installation

of optional internal accessories. The possible Programmable key features are

illustrated below, and their functions are explained in the next chapter. For further

details, contact your VERTEX STANDARD dealer.

For future reference, check the box next to each function that has been assigned

to the Programmable key on your particular radio, and keep it handy.

ode

Press the assigned Programmable key to change the encode digits for 5-tone op-

eration. To change a specific digit, select the desired digit using the [A] key, then

change the number using the [B]/[C] keys, and store the number using the [D] key.

Your Dealer may have pre-programmed Auto-Dial telephone number memories

(up to five memories) into your radio.

To dial a number, press (or Press and hold) the assigned Programmable key to

toggle the pre-programmed Auto-Dial telephone number memory, then press the

PTT switch. The DTMF tones sent during the dialing sequence will be heard in

the speaker.

“Follow-Me” Scan feature checks a User-assigned Priority Channel regularly as

you scan the other channels. Thus, if only Channels 1, 3, and 5 (of the 8 available

channels) are designated for “Scanning,” the user may nonetheless any channel as

the “User-assigned” Priority Channel via the “Follow-Me” feature.

Press the assigned Programmable key to activate “Follow-Me” scanning, then

turn the CH selector knob to the channel which you want to designate as the “Us-

er-Assigned Priority Channel”. When the scanner stops on an “active” channel, the

User-assigned Priority Channel will automatically be checked every few seconds.

Press and hold the assigned Programmable key to toggle the Lone Worker fea-

ture “ON” and “OFF.”

The Lone Worker feature will emit an audible alarm for 30 seconds at one second

intervals when the Lone Worker Timer has expired. If the user does not reset the

timer by pressing the PTT switch, the radio switches to the Emergency mode.

Press the assigned programmable key to toggle the TA (Talk Around) scan feature

“On” and “Off.”

While TA scan is proceeding, the VX-350 will search both the transmit and re-

ceive frequencies (the “ ” icon will blink on the LCD versions). When a signal

is encountered on the receive frequency, the VX-350 will pause until the signal

disappears (“ ” icon will appear but not blink). When a signal is encountered

on the transmit frequency, the VX-350 will check for activity on the receive fre-

quency every few seconds (interval programmed by your Dealer).

Press (or Press and hold) the assigned Programmable key to disable the Noise

and Tone squelch. Again press (or Press and hold) the assigned Programmable

key to resume normal (quiet) Noise and Tone squelch action.

Press (or press and hold) the assigned Programmable key to delete the Current

Memory Channel from the Scanning List. When you delete a channel from the

Scanning List, a ringing beeper will sound, and “ ” icon will disappear from the

LCD (LCD version). To restore a particular channel to your Scanning List, press (or

press and hold) the assigned Programmable key again; a ringing beeper will

sound, and “ ” icon will appear on the LCD (LCD version).

hIsPer

Press (or Press and hold) the assigned Programmable key to increase the mi-

crophone gain; thus you can speak in a low voice (whisper) temporarily. Again

press (or Press and hold) the assigned Programmable key to resume normal

microphone gain.

Press (or Press and hold) the assigned Programmable key to disable the radio

beeps temporarily. Again press (or Press and hold) the assigned Programmable

key to enable the radio beeps.

arts™ (a

Ystem

)

This system is designed to inform you when you and another ARTS™-equipped

station are within communication range.

During ARTS™ operation, your radio automatically transmits for about 1 second

every 55 seconds (or 25 seconds: Dealer Programmed) in an attempt to shake

hands with the other station.

If you are out of range for more than two minutes, your radio senses that no signal

has been received, a ringing beeper will sound, and “OUT RANGE” will appear

on the LCD (on the LCD version). If you subsequently move back into range, as

soon as the other station transmits, your beeper will sound and “IN RANGE”

will appear on the LCD (on the LCD version).

This system allows paging and selective calling, using DTMF tone sequences.

When your radio is paged by a station bearing a tone sequence which matches

yours, your radio’s squelch will open and the alert will sound. On the LCD ver-

sion, the three-digit code of the station which paged you will be displayed on

your radio’s LCD.
