Battery Saver Mode

This allows the user to limit the power output of the
ST-510 line transmitter to approximately 1 watt in
order to prolong the life of the batteries. In many
cases 1 watt of power is all that is needed. Using the
unit with up to 10 watts allows for more power to be
used, but consumes the batteries much faster.
Battery Saver is off by default.

Auto Shut Off Adjustment

Check this box to have an automatic shut down of the
transmitter. When checked, using the select key, the
ST-510 will automatically shutdown to help conserve
batteries. Shutdown time using this feature varies
with current draw. The approximate values are:
8 hrs 25ma output or less
4 hrs 50-100ma
2 hrs 200-400ma
1hr >400ma
This feature prevents the batteries from running down
if the unit is inadvertently left on. Auto Shutoff is on
by default. See Figure 26 above.
