Midland G15 instruction guide | 7
Whenever any signal is detected, the scanning will stop on a busy chan-
nel and, if no operation is done, will start after 5 seconds.
If you press the PTT, the radio will transmit on the latest busy channel;
after 10 seconds that you released the PTT, G15 will return on the default
channel and the scanning will be active.
Squelch
The Squelch function suppresses noises on free channels and allows to
receive even weak signals.
G15 has 10 different Squelch levels that can be set by programming sof-
tware: 0 means that the Squelch is turned off; from level 1 to level 9 you
will have different levels of noise reduction. The higher is the level, the
louder will be the Squelch.
By default, the Squelch level of G15 is set on level 5.
Make sure you do not set an excessively high squelch level because in this
case you may not be able to receive weaker signals. On the other hand an
excessively low Squelch value could enable the Squelch even when no si-
gnals are present.
Squelch must always be adjusted when no signals are present.
The Time Out timer is settable from 30 sec to 270 sec. only through the
programming software.
This feature is disabled by default.
Battery recharge
G15 is equipped for using a 7,4V Li-ion rechargeable battery pack which
can be recharged connecting the socket of the AC/DC wall adaptor to a
mains power socket and inserting the jack of the wall adaptor into the
desktop charger plug.
It takes 4 hours to fully recharge the radio. The led of the desktop charger
indicates the status of the recharge:
Red = charging, Green = full charge
For maximum battery life, we recommend charging the battery pack
when the G15 is off and the battery pack is fully discharged.
! Using a different battery charger other than the one specified can cau-
se damage to your device or may even cause explosions and personal
injuries.
