1 GENERAL INFORMATION The Phantom PS2000 is a revolutionary Commercial Grade remote control ITU-R Class D Marine VHF transceiver. The design allows the transceiver to be mounted in a protected area on vessels that may not have space to mount a full size VHF. The Phantom PS2000 is capable of using up to 2 enhanced full function RAM+ type microphones which are supplied seperately.
4 SAFETY / WARNING INFORMATION This radio is restricted to occupational use, work related operations only where the radio operator must have the knowledge to control the exposure conditions of its passengers and bystanders by maintaining the minimum separation distance of 0.6 m (2 feet). Failure to observe these restrictions will result in exceeding the FCC RF exposure limits. Antenna Installation: The antenna must be located at least 0.
5 FCC RADIO LICENSE INFORMATION Vertex Standard radios comply with the Federal Communication Commission (FCC) requirements that regulate the Maritime Radio Service. STATION LICENSE An FCC ship station license is no longer required for any vessel traveling in U.S. waters (except Hawaii) which is under 20 meters in length.
6 FCC NOTICE NOTICE Unauthorized changes or modifications to this equipment may void compliance with FCC Rules. Any change or modification must be approved in writing by Marine Division of Vertex Standard. NOTICE This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation.
7 GETTING STARTED 7.1 ABOUT VHF RADIO The radio frequencies used in the VHF marine band lie between 156 and 158 MHz with some shore stations available between 161 and 163 MHz. The marine VHF band provides communications over distances that are essentially “line of sight” (VHF signals do not travel well through objects such as buildings, hills or trees). Actual transmission range depends much more on antenna type, gain and height than on the power output of the transmitter.
7.3 COAXIAL CABLE VHF antennas are connected to the transceiver by means of a coaxial cable – a shielded transmission line. Coaxial cable is specified by it’s diameter and construction. For runs less than 20 feet, RG-58/U, about 1/4 inch in diameter is a good choice. For runs over 20 feet but less than 50 feet, the larger RG-8X or RG-213/U should be used for cable runs over 50 feet RG-8X should be used. For installation of the connector onto the coaxial cable refer to the figure below.
8 INSTALLATION 8.1 LOCATION The radio can be mounted at any angle. Choose a mounting location that: • is far enough from any compass to avoid any deviation in compass reading due to the speaker magnet • allows connection to a power source and an antenna • It is recommended not to mount the antenna closer than three feet from the Phantom PS2000.
2. Connect the red power wire to a 13.8 VDC ±20% power source. Connect the black power wire to a negative ground. 3. If an optional remote extension speaker is to be used, refer to next section for connections. 4. It is advisable to have a Certified Marine Technician check the power output and the standing wave ratio of the antenna after installation. 8.3 CMP25 RAM+ MICROPHONE(S) INSTALLATION NOTE The Phantom PS2000 is capable of connecting 2 RAM+ microphones to control all functions. 1.
RAM+ or External Speaker Selection By default the CMP25 RAM+ internal speaker is turned on, however using the RAM+ mic this speaker can be turned off so the external speaker can be used. 1.

Mode of operation cannot be altered from simplex to duplex or vice-versa. 10.5 INTERNATIONAL, USA, AND CANADA MODE 1. To change the modes, hold the [16/9] key and press the [WX] key.
3. The programmed NOAA weather channels will be scanned along with the regular-programmed channels. However, scanning will not stop on a normal weather broadcast unless a NOAA alert is received. 4. When an alert is received on a NOAA weather channel, scanning will stop and the transceiver will emit a loud beep to alert the user of a NOAA broadcast. 5. Press the [WX] key to stop the alert tone and receive the weather report.
10.8 CALLING ANOTHER VESSEL (CHANNEL 16 OR 9) Channel 16 may be used for initial contact (hailing) with another vessel. However, its most important use is for emergency messages. This channel must be monitored at all times except when actually using another channel. It is monitored by the U.S. and Canadian Coast Guards and by other vessels. Use of channel 16 for hailing must be limited to initial contact only. Calling should not exceed 30 seconds, but may be repeated 3 times at 2-minute intervals.
10.9 MAKING TELEPHONE CALLS To make a radiotelephone call, use a channel designated for this purpose, The fastest way to learn which channels are used for radiotelephone traffic is to ask at a local marina. Channels available for such traffic are designated Public Correspondence channels on the channel charts in this manual. Some examples for USA use are Channels 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 84, 85, 86, and 87.
10.12 SCANNING Allows the user to select the scan type from Memory scan or Priority scan. “Memory scan” scans the channels that were programmed into memory. “Priority scan” scans the channels programmed in memory with the priority channel. 10.12.1 Selecting the Scan Type 1.

11 DIGITAL SELECTIVE CALLING 11.1 GENERAL WARNING This radio is designed to generate a digital maritime distress and safety call to facilitate search and rescue. To be effective as a safety device, this equipment must be used only within communication range of a shorebased VHF marine channel 70 distress and safety watch system. The range of signal may vary but under normal conditions should be approximately 20 nautical miles. NOTE A DSC Warning sticker is included with the Phantom PS2000.
11.2 MARITIME MOBILE SERVICE IDENTITY (MMSI) 11.2.1 What is an MMSI? An MMSI is a nine digit number used on Marine Transceivers capable of using Digital Selective Calling (DSC). This number is used like a telephone number to selectively call other vessels. THIS NUMBER MUST BE PROGRAMMED INTO THE RADIO TO OPERATE THE PHANTOM PS2000 DSC FUCTIONS. How can I obtain an MMSI assignment? Boat US offers online registration of a MMSI. Visit www.boatus.com/mmsi 11.2.
11.3 DSC DISTRESS CALL The Phantom PS2000 is capable of transmitting and receiving DSC Distress messages to all DSC radios.

Also, priority for the call can be designated as Urgency or Safety. URGENCY Call: This type of call is used when a vessel may not truly be in distress, but have a potential problem that may lead to a distress situation. This call is the same as saying PAN PAN PAN on channel 16.
11.5 INDIVIDUAL CALL This feature allows the PS2000 to contact another vessel with a DSC VHF radio and automatically switch the receiving radio to a desired communications channel. This feature is similar to calling a vessel on CH16 and requesting to go to another channel (switching to the channel is private between the two stations). 11.5.

When an individual call acknowledgment is received, the established channel is automatically selected and a ringing tone sounds. 8.
11.5.6 Setting Up the Call Waiting Function Allows the Phantom PS2000 to be setup to reply (ABLE) or set the radio so it transmits a call that advises the calling vessel the person is UNABLE to reply to the call at this time. This function is similar to an answering machine. When set up in UNABLE and a individual call is received the Individual call from the other vessel is logged in the CALL WAITING directory for you to review and call back at a later time. 1.
6. Press the [ ] or [ ] key to select the first letter of the name of the group you want to reference in the directory. 7. Press the [CALL(SET)MENU] key to store the first letter in the name and step to the next letter to the right. 8. Repeat step 6 and 7 until the name is complete. The name can consist of up to eleven characters, if you do not use all eleven characters press the [CALL(SET)MENU] key to move to the next space. This method can also be used to enter a blank space in the name.
