OPERATING REQUIREMENTS

In Australia, any person operating a VHF marine radio should possess at least a Short Range Operators Certificate of Proficiency (SROCP) for  VHF Radio Operations. Alternatively, operators may choose to obtain a Long Range Operator Certificate of Proficiency (LROCP) which covers the operation of both VHF and MF/HF equipment.
Many TAFEs and marine organisations offer courses leading to examination for the SROCP and LROCP although such courses are not compulsory. Persons wishing to obtain the SROCP or LROCP should first purchase a copy of the Marine VHF Radio Operators
Handbook which is essential reading for every boat owner in Australia.
The Australian Maritime College (AMC) provides the marine examination and certificate service on behalf of the ACMA. The AMC can provide the details of organisations and individuals offering courses and or conducting exams. For further information visit:
www.amc.edu.au
If you have obtained the SROCP you can operate your VHF radio under the maritime ship class licence. You do not need to apply for a class licence or pay any fees.
If operating your VHF radio under the LRSOP you will need to apply to the AMCA for a Maritime License. In New Zealand, operators of a VHF marine radio require a Maritime VHF Operators Certificate (MVOC)
and a callsign. Please refer to www.maritimenz.govt.nz for further details. Courses for the MVOC can be arranged through www.boatingeducation.org.nz.

WARNING: SAFETY INFORMATION
The GX610 is a radio transmitting device.

  • When transmitting, ensure a distance greater than 1.5 meters is maintained between the antenna and all persons.
  • Do not transmit near electrical blasting equipment or in explosive atmospheres.
  •  Always operate the radio in accordance with the instructions supplied.
  • Always ensure an antenna is connected before transmitting to prevent possible damage to the radio.
  • Do not allow children to operate a radio transmitter unsupervised.

OPERATING RULES
Priorities

  • Read all rules and regulations pertaining to priorities and keep an up-to-date copy handy. Safety and distress calls take priority over all others.

  • You must monitor Channel 16 when you are not operating on another channel.

  • False or fraudulent distress calls are prohibited under law.
    Privacy

  • Information overheard but not intended for you cannot lawfully be used in any way.

  • Indecent or profane language is prohibited.

RANGE
The range of VHF transmissions depends on antenna height, transmitter power and the terrain over which the signals pass. For a 2.5 watt handheld radio like the GX610, ship to ship communications of up to 5 nautical miles should be possible. Ship to
shore ranges will often be even greater due to the increased height of the shore antenna.

BATTERY PACK

The GX610 uses a rechargeable 3.7 Volt 1600mAh Li-Ion battery pack. The battery pack can be charged using the supplied drop-in charging cradle and plug pack charger unit. Alternatively the battery can be charged using any suitable 5V USB power source via
the USB-C charging port on the right-hand side of the radio.
USING THE DESKTOP CHARGER
Your GX610 is supplied with a desktop charger unit (BCD610), an AC plug pack charger (PS003) and a USB charging cable. Connect the USB cable to the AC charger and plug the AC charger into the mains supply.
Connect the USB cable’s USB-C connector to the socket on the rear of the charging cradle. The LED on the charging cradle will light Amber.
Place the GX610 into the cradle with the display facing forward. The LED on the charging cradle will change to Red. Once the battery has charged the  LED will change to Green.
A fully discharged battery should achieve full charge in around 2 hours.

DIRECT CHARGING YOUR GX610
Your GX610 can be directly charged via the USB charging port on the side of the radio. The USB charging port is located under the water-resistant cover marked ‘CHG’ on the right hand side. Simply lift the top of the cover and plug the USB-C cable into the charging socket. The bottom edge of the cover will be retained by the outer case.

OPERATION

ON/OFF
To switch ON, press and hold the key for 1 second. During switch-on the radio will briefly test the LCD then switch on. The last selected channel, volume and squelch settings are restored.
To switch OFF, press and hold the   key for 1 second. The radio will beep then switch off.
VOLUME
Press the key to increase the volume or press the key to decrease it. The volume setting is displayed next to the VOL: icon in values from 0 to 9.
NOTE: There will still be sufficient volume for incoming calls to be heard at the minimum volume setting . This is a safety requirement. It is not possible to completely silence the receiver audio.
CHANNEL SELECTION
Briefly press the   key to step upwards one channel or the   key to step downwards one channel. A beep will be heard with each key press and the channel number will change to indicate the selected channel.
Press and hold the or key for 2 seconds to quickly step upwards or downwards through the channels at a rate of 10 channels per second. During this time the channel display will update once a second to show progress. When the display nears
the desired channel, release the key then individually press the keys to select the channel.

SQUELCH
The GX610 has a squelch function to ensure the radio remains quiet when there are no signals being received. When a signal is received the squelch opens to allow the signal to be heard. When the signal has gone the squelch closes again and the receiver becomes quiet.
To manually open or close the squelch Briefly press the key. A low beep will be heard, and the squelch will open. If there are no signals present you will hear the receiver’s background ‘hiss’. While the bsquelch is open the BUSY icon is displayed.
Briefly press the key again to close the squelch. A high beep will be heard, the BUSY icon will disappear and the receiver will become quiet again.

Setting the Squelch Preset Level
The preset squelch level determines the sensitivity of the squelch to incoming signals. If you are in a noisy location or unwanted weak signals keep opening the squelch, you can increase the preset squelch sensitivity so the GX610 remains quiet. Note
that increasing the preset squelch level will require stronger signals to overcome the squelch and may result in missed calls from weaker signals. The optimum setting is the minimum one required to reliably keep the receiver quiet. The Squelch setting
has a range from 1 to 9, with 1 being the minimum (most sensitive) level.
To adjust the squelch levell
Press and hold the key for 1.5 seconds until a high beep is heard. SQL: will flash on the display.
Briefly press the   keys to increase or decrease the squelch level. The current squelch level will be displayed next to the flashing SQL: icon. The squelch level adjustment is ‘live’ so if you are currently experiencing interference simply adjust the
squelch level until the radio becomes quiet. To exit the squelch setting, briefly press the key or simply wait for 10 seconds. A low beep will be heard and normal operation will be restored.
TRANSMITTING
To transmit, press the Push-To-Talk (PTT) key. The TX icon will appear on the LCD to indicate the radio is transmitting. Hold the radio in front of you with the microphone about 3-5 cm from your face and speak at a normal voice level. The microphone is quite sensitive so it is not necessary to raise your voice or shout.
For best performance speak across the microphone rather than directly into it.
Release the PTT when you have finished talking. The TX icon will disappear.
NOTE: Transmissions are inhibited on Channel 70 and any other channels that are configured as ‘Receive-only’ or ‘Data-only’. If the PTT is pressed on these channels the radio will emit a warning beep and the PTT will be ignored.
Time-out Timer
The GX610 incorporates a time-out-timer to automatically disable the transmitter if the PTT has been pressed continuously for more than 5 minutes. This is designed to prevent accidental jamming of the channel frequency.
When your transmission time approaches 5 minutes, a warning beep will be heard 10 seconds before timeout occurs and the TX icon will flash. If you release the PTT during this period, the time-out timer will be reset and you can begin retransmitting
immediately.
However if the PTT is not released, a second warning beep will occur signalling that the transmitter has been disabled. Once the transmitter is disabled, the TX icon will continue to flash even after you release the PTT.
To reset the timer and re-enable the transmitter Release the PTT and wait a further 10 seconds until the TX icon stops flashing. The timer will then reset and you can resume transmitting.

CHANNEL 16
Channel 16 is the international Distress, Safety and Calling channel. If you need to call for help in an emergency or are seeking relevant information from your local marine rescue base, use channel 16. If the call is for an emergency you will probably be asked to stay on channel 16 so others can provide assistance but for less serious incidences you will probably be transferred to a designated working channel.
Press the key at any time to go directly to channel 16. The transmit power will be restored to HI (2.5 Watts) and all other functions such as Scan, Dual Watch and Triple Watch will be cancelled. Press the key again to return to the previously selected channel. Alternatively, press the  keys to manually select a different channel.
TRANSMIT POWER
The GX610 has both high power (2.5 Watts) and low power (1 Watt) transmitter settings. For local transmissions a low power setting will conserve power and reduce interference to nearby stations. If you require the best transmission range you should select a high power setting. The default setting is high (2.5 Watts).
To set the transmitter power
Briefly press the key to toggle high or low power.
When high power is selected, a high beep will be heard and the HI icon will be displayed. When low power is selected, a low beep will be heard and the LO icon is displayed.
NOTE: High power (2.5 Watts) will be restored whenever Channel 16 is selected.
DISPLAY BACKLIGHTING
The LCD backlight will automatically illuminate whenever a key is pressed then extinguish 10 seconds after the key is released. If desired, the automatic backlighting can be disabled so that it remains off even when a key is pressed.
To enable or disable the automatic backlight, press and hold the key. A high beep indicates the automatic backlight is enabled and will switch on whenever a key is pressed. A low beep indicates the backlight is disabled and will remain off.
