PREPARATION INSTALLING/ REMOVING THE BATTERY PACK The battery pack is not charged at the factory; charge it before use. CAUTION ◆◆ Do not short the battery terminals or dispose of the battery by fire. ◆◆ Never attempt to remove the casing from the battery pack. 1 Align the battery pack with the back of the transceiver, then press the battery pack and transceiver firmly together until the release latch on the base of the transceiver locks.
CHARGING THE BATTERY PACK ATTENTION: ◆◆ Always switch OFF a transceiver equipped with a battery pack before inserting the transceiver into the charger. 1 Plug the AC adapter cable into the jack located on the rear of the charger. 2 Plug the AC adapter into an AC outlet. 3 Slide a battery pack or a transceiver equipped with a battery pack into the charging slot of the charger. • Make sure the metal contacts of the battery pack mate securely with the charger terminals.
INSTALLING THE BELT CLIP If necessary, attach the belt clip using the two supplied M3 x 8 mm binding screws. Belt clip Note: ◆◆ If the belt clip is not installed, its mounting location may get hot during continuous transmission or when left sitting in a hot environment. M3 x 8 mm screws ◆◆ Use the Phillips #2 screwdriver. CAUTION ◆◆ Do not use glue which is designed to prevent screw loosening when installing the belt clip, as it may cause damage to the transceiver.
INSTALLING THE SPEAKER/ MICROPHONE OR HEADSET Note: ◆◆ The transceiver is not fully water resistant when using a speaker/ microphone or headset. ◆◆ Use the Phillips #1 screwdriver. 1 Insert the speaker/ microphone plugs into the speaker/ microphone jacks of the transceiver. 2 Place the locking bracket over the speaker/ microphone plugs so that the locking tabs insert into the transceiver grooves. 3 Secure the locking bracket in place using the attached screw.

QT/DQT SETUP (ANALOGUE) Quiet Talk (QT) and Digital Quiet Talk (DQT) are functions that reject undesired signals on your channel. You will hear a call only when you receive a signal that contains a matching QT tone or DQT code. If a call containing a different tone or code is received, squelch will not open and you will not hear the call. Likewise, when transmitting using QT or DQT, the receiving station must have a matching tone or code to hear your call.

COMMON ID SETUP (DIGITAL) Common ID is a signaling system designed for Digital communications. When a channel is setup with an ID, squelch will only open when a call containing a matching Common ID is received. If a call containing a different Common ID is made on the same channel you are using, you will not hear the call. This allows you to ignore (not hear) calls from another parties who are using the same channel.
CHANNEL CONFIRMATION MODE To confirm your channel settings: 1 With the transceiver power OFF, press and hold the PTT switch while turning the transceiver power ON. • Continue to hold the PTT switch until the LED lights yellow and the transceiver announces “Confirm”. 2 Release the PTT switch. • The transceiver announces the Zone number of the selected channel. 3 Rotate the Selector to desired channel. • The transceiver announces the information of the current channel.
BUTTON FUNCTION PROGRAMMING MODE This transceiver allows you to reprogram the Side 1 and Side 2 buttons with any of the functions listed in the table below. Explanations on the use of each function are provided under “PROGRAMMABLE FUNCTIONS” {p. 22}.
To change the functions of the Side 1 and Side 2 buttons: 1 With the transceiver power OFF, press and hold the Side 1 and Side 2 buttons while turning the transceiver power ON. • Continue to hold the Side 1 and Side 2 buttons until the LED lights yellow and the transceiver announces “Setup”. 2 Release the button. 3 Press and hold the button to be reprogrammed (either the Side 1 or Side 2 button). • The transceiver will announce “Table zero”. 4 Release the button.
PROGRAMMABLE FUNCTIONS Calling Alert Calling alert tones help identify yourself to party members and inform them that you are calling. Your dealer can set up your transceiver with 1 of 10 calling alert tones. If each party member uses a different tone, it is easy to know who is calling. To make a call, press the button programmed as Calling Alert. Button Lock Press and hold this button for 2 seconds to lock/ unlock the transceiver buttons.
Scan Press this button to start scanning the transceiver channels. Second Channel Scan: This scan type to start the Second Channel Scan on the current zone. The Second Channel Scan is set by your dealer. Priority Scan: The Priority channel is a channel that is given first priority to while scanning. The Priority channel is set by your dealer. Revert Channel: During Scan, pressing the PTT switch will automatically select the transceiver’s Revert channel and you will begin transmitting.
VOICE OPERATED TRANSMISSION (VOX) VOX (VOX/ Semi-VOX) operation allows you to transmit hands-free. VOX can only be used if you are using a supported headset. VOX Type VOX: When the voice level to the microphone is higher than the reference level (VOX Gain Level), the transceiver automatically starts transmission. Semi-VOX: Transmission is started by pressing PTT switch and transmission continues while speaking even after PTT switch is released. The Semi-VOX function is effective in the following cases.
Note: ◆◆ If a headset is connected to the transceiver while the VOX function is switched ON and the VOX Gain level is configured to a higher, more sensitive level, louder received signals may cause the transceiver to start transmission. ◆◆ The transceiver will automatically return to normal operation if no action is performed for 20 seconds. VOX Operation 1 To transmit, simply speak to the microphone. 2 When you finish speaking, transmission ends.
SECOND PTT FUNCTION Apart from the channel you normally select, you can use another channel (second channel) with a dedicated [Second PTT]. • Second PTT function can be activated by your dealer. SECOND PTT OPERATION Second Channel Scan “Scan Type” is set to “Second Channel”, it alternately scans the second channel with the channel you normally select. • Second Channel Scan cannot be used with Priority Scan. Transmitting 1 Press the button programmed as [Second PTT] to move to second channel.
BACKGROUND OPERATIONS TIME-OUT TIMER (TOT) The Time-out Timer prevent callers from using a channel for an extended duration. If you continuously transmit for the duration programmed by your dealer (default is 60 seconds), transmission will stop and an alert tone will sound. To stop the tone, release the PTT switch.
ALL RESET MODE At some point in time, you may desire to reset the transceiver settings to their default values. This function will reset all channels to their default frequencies and Common ID (Digital)/ QT/DQT (Analogue), the VOX function to its default status, and all buttons to their default functions. 1 With the transceiver power OFF, press and hold the PTT switch, the Side 1 button, and the Side 2 button while turning the transceiver power ON.
