7.5 Reducing Battery Consumption (Battery Saver)Supported Models: PortableBattery Saver allows the transceiver to reduce power consumption by receiving intermittently.The transceiver receives intermittently when there is no carrier and no key is pressed for 5 sec or more, or when thetransceiver is in the following states:0 Analog Conventional channelWhen there is a carrier, but the QT tone or DQT code does not match the tone or code preconfigured for the transceiverand no key is pressed for 5 sec or more0 P25 Conventional channelWhen there is a carrier, but the NAC (Network Access Code) does not match the code preconfigured for the transceiverand no key is pressed for 5 sec or more0 NXDN Conventional channelWhen there is a carrier, but the RAN (Radio Access Number) does not match the number preconfigured for the transceiverand no key is pressed for 5 sec or more0 DMR Conventional channelWhen there is a carrier, but the Color Code does not match the code preconfigured for the transceiver and no key ispressed for 5 sec or moreExtension of the intervals for intermittent reception may reduce the battery consumption; however, interruptions tointroductory parts of received audio may occur. To use Battery Saver effectively, there are systemic issues to consider, forinstance, the duration from when the transceiver starts transmitting until the transceiver starts sending audio.Intervals for intermittent reception are as follows.Table 7-5 Duration of the Battery SaverSave No Carrier Inconsistent Status of QT tone, DQT code,NAC code, RAN code, or Color CodeOff Off OffShort 200 ms 400 msMedium 400 ms 800 msLong 800 ms 1600 msOff OffSaver On200/400/800ms or 400/800/1600msFigure 7-1 Battery SaverNote0 Battery Saver is activated only in an Analog Conventional system, P25 Conventional system and NXDN Conventionalsystem.0 Battery Saver is not activated while the transceiver is scanning.Configuration using KPG-D1/ D1N0 Configuring Battery Saver (Analog Conventional) ( Transceiver Settings > Personal > Personal Features >Analog Conventional > General)0 Configuring Battery Saver (P25 Conventional) ( Transceiver Settings > Personal > Personal Features > P25Conventional > General)0 Configuring Battery Saver (NXDN Conventional) ( Transceiver Settings > Personal > Personal Features > NXDNConventional > General)7 BATTERY7.5 Reducing Battery Consumption (Battery Saver)Common FUNC (K, F)/Ver 2.20 147CONTENTS INDEX
