or UHF) in the main or secondary display. When listening to broadcast FM, the / key switches between 65-75 MHz and 76-108 MHz band. Press and hold this key for 5 seconds to switch between GMRS communication and NoAA weather reception mode. • Numeric keypad With these keys you can input the information or your selections on the radio. In tx mode, push the number keys to send a corresponding DTMF code. •* Key A short momentary press of the key enables the reverse function.
5. BASIC OPERATIONS 5.1 Power on the radio • Turning the unit on To turn the unit on, simply rotate the volume/power knob clockwise until you hear a "click". If your radio powers on correctly there should be an audible double beep after about one second and the display will show a message or flash the LCD depending on settings for about one second. Then it will display a frequency or channel. If the Voice prompt is enabled, the voice will announce "frequency mode" or "channel mode".
5.4 Making a call NOTE: Press the / key to switch the main channel to the other channel if there are 2 channels shown on the display. In standby mode, press and hold the key to switch between frequency (VFO) mode and channel (MR) mode. • Channel mode call: After selecting a channel, hold down the [PTT] key to initiate a call to the current channel. Speak into the microphone with normal tone. Initiate a call, the red LED is on.
WARNING! Just because you can program in a channel does not mean you're automatically authorized to use that frequency. Transmitting on frequencies you're not authorized to operate on is illegal, and in most jurisdictions a serious offence. However, it is legal in most jurisdictions to listen. Contact your local regulatory body for further information on what laws, rules and regulations apply to your area. 5.
6.2 Channel scanning Use scan to search the channels for transmissions from unknown parties, to find someone in your group who has accidentally changed channels or to quickly find unused channels for your own use. a. In channels mode, press key for more than 2 seconds. The radio will start scanning according to the channel you set. b. You can change the scanning direction with the / keys. c. Press key to stop scanning. Note: for Scan mode, see Menu No.19. 6.
receiving and transmitting frequencies; while in channel mode the two different channels will be displayed. Important2: In frequency or channel mode, press the / key to shift between the main channel A and the sub-channel B on the display indicates on which channel (main channel A or sub channel B) you are operating. 6.7 Keypad lock This function locks the keypad to prevent accidental pressure of the controls. To unlock the keypad, press [* ] for more than 2 seconds. 6.
Frequency Mode vs. Channel Mode In standby mode, press and hold the key to switch between frequency (VFO) mode and channel (MR) mode. These two modes have different functions and are often confused. Frequency Mode (VFO) : Used for a temporary frequency assignment, such as a test frequency or quick field programming if permitted. Channel Mode (MR) : Used for selecting preprogrammed channels. Ex 1. Programming a Scan Channel with CTCSS Tone EXAMPLE New memory in Channel 31: RX = 432.
B. Press and hold the key to set the radio to VFO mode, and the VFO icon is displayed on the right. C. [1][8] Enter the scan range menu D.

You have 5 selections available: Off/ Mode 1/ Mode 2/ Mode 3/ Mode 4. For example: Mode 1= 1s’ working and 1s’ battery saving. Mode 2= 1s’ working and 2s’ battery is saving. NOTE: The higher the number the longer the battery lasts. The higher number increases the RX sleep cycle, but you may miss the first few syllables before the RX opens (4) VOX Function (Vox Level ) - MENU No.
Note: If this option is set to OFF, press and hold the PTT key to keep transmission. (10) Receiving DCS (Rx DCS) - MENU No.9 DCS codes are similar to access codes and can be added to channels, so as to create a sort of personal channel. They enable the radio to communicate with the users that are tuned on the same channel and have set the same DCS code.
(15) ANI-ID (ANI-ID) - MENU No.14 With this function you can set your ID-code. It can be programmed by the proper programming software. You can edit up to 5 digits. (16) DTMFST (DTMFST) - MENU No.15 Determines when DTMF Side Tones can be heard from the transceiver speaker.
Thanks to this function, P15UV can SCAN in frequency or channel mode. You can choose amongst three options: • Time-operated SCAN Whenever a signal is detected, the radio will suspend the SCAN for 5 seconds, and then will continue to SCAN even if the signal is still present. • Carrier-operated SCAN Whenever a signal is detected, the radio will stop scanning. It will resume to SCAN once the signal will disappear. • Search -Search SCAN The radio will stop scanning once a signal is detected.
• Frequency: Frequency + channel No. • Name: Channel name Note: Channel name mode must be set by the programming software. Up to three numbers or characters can be edited. (24) Busy Channel Lock (Busy Lock) - MENU No. 23 When this function is on, it may prevent other radios’ interference. If the selected channel is being used by other radios, when you press key PTT, your radio cannot transmit. Release the PTT and transmit as soon as the frequency is no longer busy.
NOTES: If you want to set CTCSS tones, DCS codes or the frequency offset, you have to do it before storing the channel. The channels already stored are displayed as CH-XXX ("CH" and -channel number), and other channels only display channel numbers. (29) Channel Delete (Delete) - MENU No.28 In this menu you can delete a channel of the radio. (30) Alarm Mode (Alarm Mode) - MENU No.29 This function can set the tone alarm/code alarm/site alarm of the radio.
(34) Squelch tail elimination of repeater (RP-STE) - Menu No. 33 This function is used when the radio operates through a repeater; when the PTT is released, the repeater will emit the end transmission tone to confirm it is working. Available settings: Off, 1,2,3,4,5,….10 to set the delay time. Note: Please disable this function in normal using, lest affect your normal conversation. (35) Delay the squelch tail of repeater (RPT-RL) - Menu No.
