LBI-38421A There are five (5) different optional interchangeable control panels available for selecting a two-channel radio, an eight (8) or sixteen (16) channel radio.
LBI-38421A CHANNEL Two momentary push type switches. Press CHAN 1 (up arrow) to select channel 1.; press CHAN 2 (down arrow) to select channel 2. The selected channel number will be illuminated on the control module. With an eight or sixteen channel radio two momentary type switches select the ADD switch to increase the Channel number; press and hold the DELETE switch to decrease the channel number. The selected channel is displayed by a 7segment display.

LBI-38421A Using the Radio (Two (2) Channel) 2. Select the desired channel by pressing either the ADD or DELETE switch. 3. Press and hold MONITOR switch and then adjust the VOLUME controls for the desired listening level. Release MONITOR switch. 4. Radio is now ready to receive a message. To Receive a Message: 1. Confirm the radio is turned on (channel indicator lit). If not, press Power switch. 2. Select the desired channel by pressing either the 1 or 2 switch. 3.
LBI-38421A Scan operation will be determined by the following conditions: • Priority 1, and Priority 2 and Non-Priority Programmed* The Priority 1, Priority 2, and up to six (6) remaining channels in an eight (8) channel radio or fourteen (14) channels in a sixteen (16) channel radio will be scanned. Once a carrier is detected (or correct Channel Guard tone is decoded) the digital display will indicate the channel.
LBI-38421A included on the scan list. The scan indicator (S, P1, P2) will light for each channel programmed. Priority 2 (P2)**: 1. Perform steps 1 through 3 of the Non-Priority procedure. 2. Press and hold SCAN switch; then press the ADD switch twice. The selected channel will now become the Priority 2 channel and the “P2” indicator will light to indicate that the channel is now in the scan program as Priority 2.
LBI-38421A • Receiver Voltage Reading • IC and Chip Procedures Component a. On the Transmitter/Receiver Board (A802), connect jumper plug P502/551 across pins 1 and 2 of J502/J551 (IN). b. Verify that the internal speaker plug P503/P552 is connected to speaker jack J503/552. c. Locate the internal speaker in the front cap assembly and cut the two wires from the speaker terminals. d.
