ICOM HM-56 Hand Microphone with DTMF Memory
HM-56 ADVANCED FUNCTIONS
The HM-56 HAND MICROPHONE is equipped with 14 DTMF code memory channels and a re-dialing function for auto di aling Up to 22-digit telephone numbers etc. can be memorized into each memory channel.
NOTE: Set [LOCK] on the microphone to the OFF position to use HM-56 functions.
3 modes
- The HM-56 has 3 modes as follows:
MEMORY WRITING mode
- Used when writing DTMF codes into a DTMF code memory channel.
- The active indicator blinks fast.
MEMORY READING mode
- Used when reading DTMF codes from a DTMF code memory channel.
- The active indicator lights continuously.
RE-DIALING mode
- Used when recalling the last-transmitted DTMF codes.
- The active indicator blinks slowly.
Writing a DTMF code memory
Program a DTMF code memory channel as follows.
- Push [MW] on the microphone to select the MEMORY WRITING mode. The active indicator blinks.
- While holding the PTT switch, push the desired DTMF code memory number from [1] to [D] on the keyboard. Keep pushing the PTT switch.
- While pushing the PTT switch, push the desired keys up to 22 digits.
- Release the PTT switch.
- Push [MW] on the microphone to memorize the code into the DTMF code memory channel.
DTMF code memory erasing
- Push (MW on the microphone to select MEMORY WRITING mode.
- The active indicator blinks.
- While holding the PTT switch, push the desired DTMF .code memory number [1] to [D] on the keyboard.
- Release the PTT switch to erase the DTMF code.
- Push [MW] on the microphone to return to normal use.
Transmitting a DTMF code memory
Programmed DTMF code memory contents are automatically transmitted.
- Push [MR] to select MEMORY READ mode.
- The active indicator lights.
- Push the desired DTMF code memory number from [1] to [D].
- The memorized DTMF code is automatically transmitted.
- The active indicator blinks according to the DTMF code length.
Re-dialing function
To allow you to transmit a previously transmitted DTMF code the re-dial memory channel automatically memorizes the last- transmitted DTMF code sequences.
Manual re-dialing
The last-transmitted DTMF code can be transmitted by manual key operation.
- Push and hold the PTT switch.
- Push [RD] to transmit the last-transmitted DTMF codes.
- The active indicator blinks according to the DTMF code length.
Auto re-dialing
The last-transmitted DTMF code can be automatically transmitted at each push of the PTT switch.
- Push [RD] to select RE-DIALING mode.
- The active indicator blinks.
- At each push of the PTT switch, the last-transmitted DTMF code is transmitted.
- Push [RD] to cancel the function.
- The active indicator goes out.
Writing a re-dialing memory
The last-transmitted DTMF codes are automatically written into a re-dialing memory. lf desired you can manually write DTMF codes into the re-dial memory channel. Push [RD instead of the DTMF code memory number key in “Writing a DTMF code memory” step 2. (p. 25)
1750 Hz tone call
Using the HM-56, you can access a repeater that requires a 1750 Hz tone.
- Push [MR] on the microphone.
- The active indicator lights.
- Transmit a 1750 Hz tone as follows:
- Push and hold [#] to transmit a 1750 Hz tone continuously.
- Push to transmit a 1750 Hz tone for approx. 0.5 sec.
- Push [MR] again to cancel the function.
- The active indicator goes out.
HM-56 CPU resetting
NOTE: When the following operation is performed programmed information in the HM 56is erased
- Turn the transceiver power OFF.
- Push and hold [MW] and [MR] on the microphone.
- Turn the power ON to reset the CPU in the microphone.
