FOREWORD This instruction manual explains basic operation of the 144 MHz FM TRANSCEIVER., When you require additional information, refer to a separate’ sheet called “Tech Talk. " available from our nearest [com Dealer or Service Center.
IMPORTANT READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS carefully and completely before using the transceiver. SAVE THIS INSTRUCTION MANUAL This instruction manual contains important safety snd operating instructions for the The use of non-lg com battery packs/chargers may impair transceiver performance and invalidate the warranty. OPERATING NOTES BE CAREFUL! When transmigrating for a long time with ‘high output power, the rear panel may become hot.
SLIM AND UNBELIEVABLY COMPACT Transceiver dimensions are Just 49 mn {1.971W x 103.6 (1.3 These are dimensions that include the BP-82 BATTERY PACK! And the rounded body design gives you a feeling of even smaller transceiver dimensions. CONVENIENT, SIMPLE OPERATION The 1C2SA/SEs uncomplicated design includes just 6 switches and 3 controls. This design ensures easy operation. Else. no double controls are incorporated, making opera son even sassier. EXTERNAL DC POWER JACK Another loom innovation.

4 BASIC OPERATION 4-4 Repeater Operation When operating the transceiver with a station through a repeater, the repeater transmits your signal, allowing you 10 communicate with long distance stations even when low output power is selected. FUTURE then fal oo | “9E0 o _(ONION] B 1750 Hz TONE CALL (Europe version) 1) Quickly push the PTT switch 2 times and briefly hold the switch down (second push}. s A 1750 Hz tone is transmitted. 2} Release and then push the PTT switch again to transmit your voice signal.
5-1 Call channel A one touch access call channel s provided for using your most often used frequency. The call channel is separate from memory channels: (1) ACCESSING THE CALL CHANNEL 1) Push [C] to call up the call channel. 2) Push [C] again ta return to the previous mode, I RELATED FUNCTIONS 5 Il (2] PROGRAMMING THE CALL CHANNEL 1) Set the transceiver in VEQ mode using 2} Set the desired: frequency {and Duplex, if desired) to be programmed. ! 3) 1o call up the ¢all channel.
12 5 RELATED FUNCTIONS 5-2 Memory mode The transceiver has 48 memory channels for storing your most often used frequencies for use with repeaters; group calls, etc. Where first applying prows or after resetting, memory channels 10 ~ 47 are blank.
(3) PROGRAMMING THE MEMORY CHANNEL 1) Set the transceiver in MEMORY mode using [VIGIL 2) Rotate the tuning control to select the memory channel programmed. s To select a blank channel, push TRUNCATE] then rotate the tuning control. 3) Push [V/M] 1o select VFO mode. 4] Set the desired frequency (and Duplex, if desired). 5] Push [FUN] . then push and hold: [V/M] until 3 short beeps are heard.

5 RELATED FUNCTIONS 5-4 Auto power off function The transceiver has an auto power off function. If vou forget to tun OFE the transceiver, the function automatically: turns OFE: the receiver and transmitter circuits 60 minutes after a switch is pushed. After the circuits are OFF. the function display shows clock time, and then the transceiver stops operating: Amer B0 min. R ] To operate the transceiver, turn power OFF then ON again.
MAINTENANCE 6-1 Troubleshooting POSSIBLE CAUSE: | SOLUTION ® No power comes ON: are erased. charging has been performed for along time. charged simultaneous. o Battery pack requires charging: i . Charge the battery pack. B @ Poor connection between the battery pack e Clean debris from the terminals of the bat: handheld transceiver. Wiy pack perseverance. & No sound comes from the e [SQLITE turned tao far clockwise. o Notate (SLOT counterclockwise, BB speaker. * Battery pack requires charring.
6 MAINTENANCE 6-2 Backup battery The transceiver s skipped with a rechargeable lithium backup battery for retaining memory information. The backup battery s automatically charged when a battery pack is connected. Backup battery replacement is therefore not necessary every 5 years, Catalonia Attach the charged battery pack and ;the transceiver Mother, the may discharge after 1 week. 6-3 Cleaning Hf the transceiver becomes dusty or dirty wipe it clean with dry, soft cloth.
