Icom IC-2100H [60/72] I auto power off

14 OTHER FUNCTIONS

■ Auto power-off

The auto power-off function conveniently turns the transceiver

power OFF after a preset time in which no operations are per-

formed. In this way, if you forget to turn power OFF, the trans-

ceiver automatically turns itself OFF.

The time can be set to 30 min., 1 hr., 2 hr. or turned OFF. The

selected time is retained even when the transceiver is turned

OFF via the auto power-off function. To cancel the function,

select “OF” in step ➃ below.

➀ Push [PWR] to turn power OFF.

➁ While pushing [SET], turn power ON to enter initial set

mode.

➂ Push [SET] one or more times until “POF” appears.

• Pushing [MONI] reverses the order of selection.

➃ Rotate the tuning dial to se-

lect the desired auto power-

off time or turn the timer

OFF (“OF”).

•“AO” appears when an auto

power-off time is set.

➄ Push [PWR] to exit initial set mode.

USING

INITIAL SET MODE

The display shows that the

30 min. timer is selected.

■ Squelch delay

During operation, received signal strength often fluctuates.

This can result in annoying repeated opening and closing of

the squelch during reception of the same signal. The IC-

2100H has a built-in squelch delay function which helps pre-

vent this. When both stations are operating from a fixed

location e.g. during packet operation, this function should be

set to “short.”
