Warning on Danger of Radio Frequency and Magnetic Energy The Model CS1000 generates both radio frequency energy and magnetic energy while transmitting. Any transmitter has the potential to cause heating and other thermal effects in your body. The amount of heating and other thermal effects is determined by the power out from the radio and the distance from the body.
FCC Warnings This equipment generates or uses radio frequency energy. Changes or modifications to this equipment may cause harmful interference unless the modifications are expressly approved in the instruction manual. The user could lose the authority to operate this equipment if an unauthorized change or modification is made. This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC rules.
CHARGING THE BATTERY Insert the cable of the power supply into the power jack at the back of the charger. You can determine it is the power jack because it is the only hole in the charger that will accommodate the cable from the power supply. Insert the power adapter into the applicable AC 110 Volt power outlet. The three LED lights will flash for about one second and then the green light will stay on indicating everything is normal. Turn off the radio and insert the radio into the charger.
INSTALLING THE BATERY Align the two protrusions at the lower end of the battery to the slot at the lower part of the shell of the radio and insert in. Press the upper end of the battery down until the push button on the radio is completely bounced out and locked. REMOVING THE BATTERY To remove the battery, slightly press the battery and pull the push button upward, and then remove the battery from the radio.
DANGER: THINGS NOT TO DO WITH YOUR BATTERY Do Not Take Apart Or Reconstruct Battery Pack The battery pack has various safety features and protection circuits to avoid damage to the battery and the user. If these safety features are compromised, the battery may burst in flame, get hot, rupture, or generate smoke. Do Not Short-Circuit Battery Pack Terminals The terminals on the battery pack are not designed to be shorted.
Do Not Touch A Ruptured or Leaking Battery The battery contains some chemicals that if it gets in your eyes can cause permanent eye damage or even blindness. If the liquid from the battery gets in your eyes, wash out your eyes as soon as possible without rubbing your eyes. Go to the Emergency Hospital as soon as possible.
BASIC OPERATION Light Emitting Diodes Your radio has two light emitting diodes, normally called LEDS. The meaning of the colors and if it is on solid or flashing is described below. Red LED Solid: The radio is transmitting. This can be caused by you pressing the PTT switch on the side of the radio or automatically from an emergency alarm mode. Red LED Flashing Fast: The radio is in an emergency alarm condition but not transmitting.
Channel Turn the channel selector knob to select the desired channel. The built in voice prompt if enabled will tell you what channel you are on. If you are on the correct channel and that channel is set to receive CTCSS or DCS code and there is a radio transmitting on that channel and that transmitting radio has the proper CTCSS or DCS code, then you will hear sounds from the speaker. If the channel you selected is not programmed, then there will be a continuous tone from that channel.
PROGRAMMABLE FUNCTION KEYS There are three buttons on the radio that are programmable for different functions. Each button has the capability of having two separate functions, determined by how long the button is pressed. The length of time the button has to be pressed for the second feature is determined by the dealer. The list below gives the possible features and the reasons for the features. The user must be informed by the dealer the function of each key. 1.
4. Call Key 2 Pressing this key sends either a preprogrammed DTMF code or two tone code. This is a paging feature that is used to contact individual radio or sometimes to set off certain type of alarming features. When you set it for a DTMF code or a two tone code the other radio has to be able to receive that DTMF code or two tone code. Not all radios have the ability to respond to paging. 5. Lone Worker This is an alternate action switch.
9. Scan This is an alternate action switch. Pressing the key the first time starts the scan and pressing it again stops the scan. The purpose of the scan function is to allow the user to monitor multiple channels and stop at the channel that is active. This would be useful for a supervisor who needs to monitor the activity among different groups of users. The scan function requires the user to program a scan list. This is a list of the channels that you want to scan.
10. Nuisance Delete Pressing this key deletes the current channel that has activity. If the radio is scanning and is not stopped at a channel then this key does nothing. The purpose of this key is to delete scan channels that have noise on them or other erroneous transmissions. This prevents the scanning from always stopping at a channel that has no meaning. Once you quit the scan mode and then enable it again this deleted channels comes back. You cannot delete a priority channel from the scan list. 11.
15. Squelch On/Off This is an alternative action switch that when enabled will disable the squelch and allow the user to hear a very weak signal. When this switch is disabled, the squelch is enabled and will prevent the user from hearing noisy signals. This feature should only be used if the user is working on the fringe of available signal strength and is necessary to hear everything even if the channel is very noisy.
