The unit will "beep" when turning the unit on/off and the LCD screen will light when unit is on. USING THE BELT CLIP To use the supplied belt clip, insert the clip fully into the slot at the back of the radio unit. To remove the clip, press the top of the clip and slide it out. The belt clip needs to be removed before changing/installing the batteries for full access to the battery compartment. Setting Volume level with the UP and DOWN Keys Press either the UP or DOWN keys once momentarily to enter volume setting mode. Press the UP key or DOWN key again to increase or decrease volume level from 1 to 6 as shown on the volume icon of the LCD display. Press the PWR/SET key momentarily to set or it will automatically set in 15 seconds. A beep will sound to confirm this setting. Receiving an Incoming Call (Standby Mode) In standby mode (not programming or selecting functions), the unit automatically will receive incoming calls from any other unit on the same channel and CTCSS code whenever you are not talking/transmitting. When you receive a signal, the ( ) icon appears on the display. USING EXTERNAL MICROPHONE/SPEAKER HEADSETS The MRC-11X is supplied with an MHS-11XO headset for the driver. If the unit will also be used for driver/passenger communications, an optional second headset can be purchased for the passenger (see the Optional Accessories Ordering Form enclosed for more info re the choice of the premium MHS-11XC/O or the standard MO-1/MC-1 headsets). When the driver headset is plugged into the DRV jack on the unit's top panel, it automatically disables the MRC-11X's built-in Mic and speaker, and the headset must be used for all communication. (Note: Always make sure the unit is off or the volume at minimum before plugging in the headsets and placing them on the head. ) Transmitting a Signal Using the PTT Key Check the channel activity by pressing and holding the SCAN button. You will hear static if the channel is unoccupied. Do not TRANSMIT if someone is talking on the channel. Press and hold the PTT button to TRANSMIT. The TX LED indicator will light up in red. Hold the unit in a vertical position with the MICROPHONE 1 to 2 inches from the mouth. While holding the PTT button, speak into the unit using a normal tone of voice.
