To Select VOX Sensitivity:
Talkabout TA288 walkie-talkies allow you to adjust the VOX sensititvity
of the walkie-talkie to compensate for varying levels of background
noise and speech. The VOX edit mode allows you to choose between
high, and low settings. For example if you speak loudly, or are in a
noisy environment, the high setting (high bar) should be selected and
if you speak softly, or are in a quiet environment, the low setting (low
bar) should be selected. The middle setting (middle bar) is suitable
for most applications.
1. Ensuring the audio accessory is in place, press the Menu button
five times to enter the VOX sensitivity menu.
2. The headset icon will flash and the walkie-talkie will display the
current VOX setting:
3. Use the Scroll button to change the VOX setting, if required.
4. The walkie-talkie will return to the normal operating mode after a
few seconds or when you press the Mon button.

Talkabout TA288 walkie-talkies also have built-in Internal Voice
Operated Transmission (iVOX) capability. This is a similar function to
the VOX because the sound of your voice activates transmission, but
no external accessories are needed.
