Table 6 Input/Output Programmable Polarities
To prevent nuisance and to regulate transmissions to a reasonable period, the PTT
Timeout function will disable all PTT Tx functions after a pre-determined (configured) time
period.
Tx Timeout
and
Warning
When the PTT is activated the PTT Timer will run for the configured interval giving an
Audible Warning 6-seconds before the timeout. If the PTT is still active 6-seconds after
the warning the transmission will be aborted at that time and all PTT functions completely
disabled for a short period (6-seconds) to enable other users the opportunity to enter the
channel.
Although not recommended, if the the PTT is released and re-keyed frequently before the
PTT Timeout Warning, the PTT Timer will be reset and the Tx Timeout will not be
activated
Under Tx Timeout conditions, the PTT must be released and will not be re-enabled for a
predetermined period. The PTT Timeout period can be configured to OFF.
Configured as PTT Time-Out:
A configurable function incorporated to indicate the end of a tone or tone sequence to the
on-board µController. For optimum CM1481 performance it is recommended that this
function be set to approximately 1.5 times the selected Tone Length.

In reply to a Selcall the CM1481 can be configured to respond by transmitting either its
Transpond Address (Tp) or a BEEP (tone F). This function can be re-configured over-air.
