Record Procedure - in detail

9

Recording a message onto the internal “message chip.”

1 Insert the Control Lock Key in the control lock hole located on the back of the Transmitter. Select either 

Part-1 or Part-2 on the Two-Part Message Switch located on the back of the Transmitter. Note that you 
can record or re-record either message part at any time and select to playback either only Part-1 or  
Part-1 and Part-2 when transmitting. Therefore, Part-1 is often used as a “wrap-around” or permanent 
part of the message while Part-2 is used for additional information and topical updates. 

2 To record from the internal built-in MIC, speak into the top grill of the unit. To record from an external 

MIC or LINE-INPUT plug either device into its corresponding rear panel connector. 

3 Press and hold the Record /Pause button on the front of the Transmitter until the Display Panel begins 

counting down in seconds (i.e. 300, 299, 298...) and then immediately begin speaking or press the start 
button on your external audio source. 

4 To pause during recording, press the Record/Pause button. Push Record/Pause again to continue. Do 

not use the Pause Button to end a recording.

5 When your message is complete, wait a second or two then press and hold the Play button located on 

the front of the Transmitter until you see the frequency re-display on the front panel. The message will 
begin to playback, and will repeat in a loop.

  If desired, repeat the recording procedure for message PART-2 by selecting Part-2 on the  

TWO-PART MESSAGE SELECT SWITCH.

6 To protect your message from accidental erasure or tampering, remove the Control Lock Key from the 

Control Lock located on the back of the Transmitter and place it in a safe place where it cannot be lost.  

Note

 - You can monitor your recording on the Transmitter’s Internal Speaker by turning up the 

“SPEAKER VOLUME” control on the transmitter rear panel, but doing so when utilizing a MIC as the record 
source may cause feedback. The setting for this internal speaker volume will not affect of audio transmission.
