## Radio settings fields

monitorType

- Specifies the monitor type. Must be either Open or Silent. Default Open.

loneWorkerResponseTime

- When lone worker is enabled, specifies the time in minutes before the radio will start to remind the user. Default 1min. See also glLoneWorkerlone worker.

loneWorkerReminderPeriod

- Specifies the period in seconds for the lone worker reminder. Default 10s. See also glLoneWorkerlone worker.

groupCallHangTime

- Specifies the group-call hang time in milliseconds. This is the time-period the user can answer a received group call by pressing PTT. After this time has passed, a press on the PTT button will call the default contact on the selected channel. Default 3000ms. See also glHangTimehang time.

privateCallHangTime

- Specifies the private-call hang time in milliseconds. This is the time-period the user can answer a received private call by pressing PTT. After this time has passed, a press on the PTT button will call the default contact on the selected channel. Default 3000ms. See also glHangTimehang time.

downChannelModeVFO

- If true, the channel-up button will tune the VFO. If false, it will step through the channels. Default false.

upChannelModeVFO

- If true, the channel-donw button will tune the VFO. If false, it will step through the channels. Default false.

powerSaveMode

- Puts the radio is a sleep mode when in idle state (no traffic on the channels). This allows for some power saving. However, the radio will need some time to wake up. Consequently, all other radios in the network need to transmit a wake-up preamble. Default true.

wakeupPreamble

- Enables the transmission of a short wake-up preamble allowing receiving radios to wake-up in time for the actual transmission. Default true.

preambleDuration

- This sets the preamble duration in milliseconds. Default 360ms.

powerSaveDelay

- Specifies the delay, before an idle radio enters power save mode. (GD-73 only)

allLEDsDisabled

- If true, all LEDs are disabled. Default false.

quickKeyOverrideInhibited

- If true, allows the user to transmit on a busy channel irrespective of the channels admit criterion by double pressing the PTT. Default false.

txInterrupt

- WTF?!?

txOnActiveChannel

- If true, the radio will transmit on the currently active channel (if double-wait) is enabled. Default false.

scanMode

- Specifies the scan mode. Must be one of Time, Carrier or Search. Default Time.

repeaterEndDelay

- Specifies the delay after the end of a repeater transmission in seconds. Default 0s, off.

repeaterSTE

- Specifies the repeater STE (what ever that means) in seconds. Default 0s, off.

language

- Specifies the UI language. Must be one of Chinese or English.
