unit will start to scroll through the channels at 125ms intervals. It returns
to normal mode when the key press is released
B.4 16/9 Channel
Summary of CH16/9 Key operation:
-
If the current channel was not the priority channel, press 16/9 key will directly jump to the 16 channel or 9 channel(short press to jump to priority CH16 at High Power and long press to jump to priority CH9 at High Power)
Note: Accessing the priority channel will change the power setting to high power. The user can change the power setting to low power by pressing H/M/L/LOCK Key. If the priority channel is limited by the cloning software for 1-W only, accessing the priority channel will still follow the low power limitation. -
After the channel is tuned to the priority channel, the “P” icon is lit to indicate that the priority CH16 or CH9 has been reached. UP and Down key functions normally
-
When the radio already tunes to the priority channel, pressing the 16/9 key will revert the radio to the previously used working channel depending on how it is being pressed (see flow chart above).
16/9 Key also acts ‘esc key’ to exit other modes
To reprogram a secondary priority channel:
- Tune to priority CH9. It is indicated by the “P” icon. It is done by pressing the “16/9” key for more than 3 seconds.
- Then, press and hold the “16/9” key for 3 seconds.
- and Currently, the secondary priority channel number should start flashing and the current secondary priority channel number should start flashing.
- While the channel number is flash, it can be changed with the “UP” and“DOWN” arrow buttons. The selection can be saved by short pressing the ‘’16/9’’ key and the screen display the ‘’P’’ icon to indicate that the second priority channel has been changed.
- The user can reprogram the secondary priority channel on the HM130+

D. EUROPEAN KEY OPERATION
Most of the functions in the radio are the same as in the US model. These are
the functions that work differently.
D.1 Programming ATIS ID
ATIS function only exists in European Model. Therefore, it only functions when
the European radio is tuned to the International Frequency Group. After ATIS
ID is being programmed into the radio via the keypad or the cloning software,
the ATIS function will be enabled all the time. The user cannot disable it. To
enable the customer to enter ATID ID into the radio from the keypad, the check
box next to the ATIS entry by the user on the Cloning software has to be
ticked.
Programming ATIS ID from the Keypad
- Programming start with the radio turn OFF.
- Long press DOWN and turn radio ON to access the ATIS mode.
- The front digit will indicate the digit position of the ATIS ID. The rear digit will blink continuously. The rear digit indicates the ATIS ID. Changing the value of the rear digit can be achieved using the “UP/DOWN” Key.
- Press the “MEM” key to confirm the selection and move to the next digit.
- After the user completes the 9-digit ATIS ID, the user has to enter the ATIS ID the second time to avoid invalid entry. If a different ATIS ID is entered, the operation will be canceled The user has to repeat step one to initiate the ATID ID entering sequence.
- The operating procedure to enter a valid ATID ID for the second time is same as the first time, the ATIS ID will be flashed in sequence one time on the screen.
- Turn off the radio, and permanently save the ATIS ID to the EEPROM of the radio.
- After the ATIS ID being programmed into the radio, from the OFF position holding H/M/L/LOCK and turning the radio ON will make the radio flash its ATIS ID. After this stage, only with the cloning software the ATIS ID is modified or erased.
- At the ATIS mode, part of international channels is restricted to transmitting on low-power, such as CH6, CH8, CH10, CH11, CH12, CH13, CH14, CH71, CH72, CH74, and CH77.
D.2 Special Function Keys
Press DW/TRIW key as well as power key to directly enter into write channel
mode as below displayed.

test. It is highly recommended that at least one other person is present (or
very close by) during the test.
Test Configuration
EUT Setup
The EUT shall be setup in a typical system configuration on an isolated wooden
bench with NO GROUNDPLANE. The power to the EUT and auxiliary equipment shall
be from 12V or 24V sealed lead-acid batteries via a suitable fuse. The length
of the EUT power cable shall be no more than 2m. Any screens within the system
shall be terminated at the battery–vet connection.
Caution: The max operating of the EUT is 50℃.
EUT Configuration
All operating configurations should be tested with appropriate performance
criteria defined for each test.
Performance Criteria
From BS EN 61000-4-5 : 2006
Performance criteria C: Temporary loss of function or degradation of
performance, the correction of which requires operator intervention.

- Inter-ship channels are for communications between ship stations. Inter-ship communications should be restricted to Channels 6, 8, 72, and 77. If these are not available, the other channels marked for Inter-ship may be used.
- Channel 70 is used exclusively for Digital Selective Calling (DSC) and is not available for regular voice communications.
Notes:
- Channel 06 may also be used for communications between ship stations and aircraft engaged in coordinated search and rescue operations. Ship stations should avoid harmful interference to such communications on channel 06 as well as to communications between aircraft stations, ice breakers, and assisted ships during ice seasons.
- Within the European Maritime Area and in Canada, channels 10, 67, and 73 may also be used by the individual admin stations concerned for communication between ship stations, aircraft stations, and participating land stations engaged in coordinated search and rescue and anti-pollution operations in local areas. Channels 10 or 73 (depending on location) are also used for the broadcast of Marine Safety Information by the Maritime and Coast Guard Agency in the UK only.
- Channel 13 is designated for use on a worldwide basis as a navigation safety communication channel, primarily for inter-ship navigation safety communications.
- Channels 15 and 17 may also be used for onboard communications provided the effective radiated power does not exceed 1 Watt.
- The use of Channels 75 and 76 should be restricted to navigation-related communication only and all precautions should be taken to avoid harmful interference to channel 16. Transmit power is limited to 1 Watt.

- Recreational boaters normally use channels listed as Non-Commercial: 68, 69, 71, 72,
- Channel 70 is used exclusively for Digital Selective Calling (DSC) and is not available for regular voice
- Channels 75 and 76 are reserved as guard bands for Channel 16 and are not available for regular voice
Notes:
- The letter “A” following a channel number indicates simplex use of the ship station transmit side of an international semi-duplex Operations are different from that of international operations on that channel.
- Channel 13 should be used to contact a ship when there is a danger of All ships of length 20 meters or greater are required to guard VHF channel 13, in addition to VHF channel 16 when operating within U.S. territorial waters.
- Channel is Receive
- Channel 16 is used for calling other stations or for distress
- Output power is fixed at 1 watt
- Output power is initially set to 1 User can temporarily override this restriction to transmit at high power.
