FTM-10R Operating Manual

Transmission

To transmit, simply close the PTT (Push To Talk) key on the microphone when the

frequency is clear. Hold the microphone approximately 1” (25 mm) from your mouth,

and speak into the microphone in a normal voice level. When your transmission is

complete, release the PTT switch; the transceiver will revert to the receive mode.

During transmission, the red “TX” indicator at front panel will appear.

Note: 1) The FTM-10R has the “Time-Out Timer” (TOT) feature which is designed to

force the transceiver into the “receive” mode after a preset time period of continuous

transmission (the default is 6 minutes). This feature prevents your transceiver from

transmitting a “dead carrier” for a long period of time in the event that the microphone

PTT switch is accidentally locked in the “TX” condition. The Time-Out Timer’s

“switch-to-receive” time may be adjusted to 1 ~ 30 minutes, or Off via Menu Item “F43

TOT.” See page ?? for details.

2) You may set the microphone gain (level) via Menu Item “F16 MIC GAIN.” See page ??

for details.

Changing the Transmitter Power Level

You can select from among a total of three transmit power levels on your FTM-10R.

To change the power level:

1. Press and hold the [SELECT] key for one second to activate the Menu (SET) mode.

2. Rotate the DIAL knob to select Menu Item “F44 TX POWER.”

3. Press the [X] key to enable selection of the transmit power level. The current

transmit power level is appeared on the LCD.

4. Rotate the DIAL knob just to desired transmit power level.

5. Press the [SELECT] key momentarily to save your new setting and resume normal

operation.

During transmission, the Bar Graph will deflect in the display, according to the power

output selected.

LOCK feature

To prevent accidental frequency change, various aspects of the FTM-10R’s keys and

knob may be locked out.

Press the [POWER] key momentarily to toggle the key lockout feature on and off while

the transceiver is turned on.

In the LOCK mode, the display will show “LOCK” when you rotate the DIAL knob or

touch the keys.
