Above all….Safety! Warnings ! Do not open the radio for any reason! The radio’s precision mechanics and electronics require experience and specialized equipment; for the same reason, the radio should under no circumstances be realigned as it has already been calibrated for maximum performance. Unauthorized opening of the transceiver will void the warranty. ! Do not use detergents, alcohol, solvents, or abrasives to clean the equipment. Just use a soft, clean cloth.

Let’s communicate! To turn on/off the radio Hold down MENU/ for 3 seconds. Channel selection Press once the Menu button and then select the desired channel by the ▲/▼ buttons. Press PTT to confirm the selection. Remember that both radios must be set on the same channel. Transmission Keep pressed the PTT button. The display will show “Tx” and “to”. Release the PTT and the radio beeps to confirm to other users that your transmission has finished ( ‘Roger Beep’, see paragraph).
Menu button The following functions can be selected by pressing the Menu button: • VOX • Roger Beep on/off • Channel setting • CTCSS tone setting • Keypad Beep VOX function and its sensitivity The VOX function lets you open the transmission by voice without the use of the PTT button. To get the most use from the VOX feature you must first determine what sensitivity (noise level) is needed to activate the VOX. Push the Menu button for three times; “VOX” blinks on the display.
Channel setting Press once the Menu button and then select the desired channel by the ▲/▼ buttons. Press PTT to confirm the selection. CTCSS sub-audio tone setting The CTCSS sub-tones, are code numbers (from 1 to 38) that can be added to the first 8 channels in order to create a new private channel. You can add up to 38 codes to the channels named from P1 to P8.
MON/SCAN Monitor function When this feature is activated, the radio can receive very low and weak signals. This is very useful when you need to talk but the distance is as far as the maximum range possible; with the monitor feature you can extend the coverage of the radio. The disadvantage is the reception of loud background noises. Activation/Deactivation: Keep pressed MON/SCAN till the display shows “Rx”. SCAN function The SCAN mode monitors the busy channels.
Insert the battery pack into the radio. Plug the USB supplied in the package into the USB port of the radio or of the desktop charger. The icon with its bars will be displayed to indicate that the radio is being charged. Once the batteries are fully charged the bars of the icon will be steady. We recommend to disconnect the power supply (disconnect the USB cable). Note: the USB cable must be connected to devices with a charge current of 500mAh at least.
Troubleshooting and radio reset XT50 is designed to provide you with years of optimal performance. If for some reason problems arise, refer to this chapter before contacting a service centre in your region. Reset If your transceiver experiences a logical malfunction (improper symbols on the display, blocking of functions, etc.), it may not be experiencing a true failure, but rather a problem caused by external factors.
