DETAILED FUNCTION DESCRIPTIONS
Scan & Scan Mode Setting
Functions: under Channel mode, the transceiver allows you to scan the
entire current operating band and memory channels.
When the computer program “Side Key 1” or “Side Key 2” selects the scanning
function, operate the side key to start scanning. When you have started
scanning, the radio will halt on a signal it encounters, operate the side key
again to stop scanning. Before you begin.take a moment to select the way in
which you would like the scanning to halt on a signal.
There are three options for the scan mode are available under channel mode:
- TO: In this mode, the scanning will halt on a signal it encounters, and will hold there for some time. If you do not take action to disable the scanning within the time period, the scanning will resume even if the stations are still active.
- CO: In this mode, the scanning will halt on a signal it encounters, and will hold there if the stations are still active. And after the carrier has dropped, the scanning will resume.
- SE: In this mode, the scanning will halt on a signal it encounters, it will not restart automatically; you must manually re-initiate scanning if you wish to resume.
VOX Level & VOX Switch
Functions: the VOX function provides automatic transmit/receive switching
based on the voice that is input to the microphone. With the VOX switch ON,
you do not need to press PTT key to transmit, and it is not necessary to use a
VOX headset for VOX operation. When the computer program “Side Key 1” or “Side
Key 2″ selects the VOX Switch,operate the side key to turn on VOX.Operate the
side key to turn off VOX. You can set VOX level from 1 to 7 via program
software. The higher level is, the lower sensitive it will be. This
transceiver provides for adjustment of ” Hang-Time” of the VOX (the transmit-
receive delay after the cessation of speech) via program software.
TX Power Setting
Functions: you can select High/Low TX power according to your talking
environment and need. When you store memories, you can store High and Low
power settings separately in each memory.
Enter Menu 4th to set TX power.
TX power: s5W high/middle/low
Squelch Adjustment
Functions: Squelch system allows you to mute the background noise when no
signal is being received. Not only does the Squelch system “standby” operation
more pleasant, but also significantly reduces battery current consumption.
Beeper setting
Functions: enable/disable the key beeper.
Preset Channel Selection
Functions: Preset the signal type (OFF/DTMF/2T/5T) at software, by choosing
1-16 channel to achieve remote kill stun/activate/revive function. Enter Menu
10th to choose 1-16 channel.
Transmitter Time-out-Timer
Functions: the TOT feature provides a safety switch which limits transmission
to a pre programmed value. This will promote battery conservation by not
allowing you to make excessively-long transmissions. In the event of a stuck
PTT switch, it can prevent interference from other users as well as battery
depletion.
Busy Channel Lock-out
Functions: the BCLO feature prevents the radio’s transmitter from being
activated if a signal is strong enough to break through the “noise”, squelch
is present. On a frequency where stations using different CTCSS or DCS codes
may be active, BCLO prevents you from disrupting their communications
accidentally (because your radio may be muted by its own tone decoder).
Carrier: the radios PTT will be prevented only the frequency is busy
using.
Sub: the radio’s PTT will be prevented only the frequency and tone coder
is the same.
Transmit Over Beeper
Functions: sending a beeper to inform the receiver TX is over.
Receive Saver
Functions: this feature significantly reduces quiescent battery drain,
and you may not receive the full data burst.
Voice Prompt
Functions: enable/disable voice prompt. Default: ON.
CTCSS/DCS Operation
Many repeater systems require a very-low-frequency audio tone that be
superimposed on your FM carrier in order to activate the repeater. This helps
prevent false activation of the repeater by radar or spurious signals from
other transmitters. This transceiver has 50 groups CTCSS,105 groups
normal/inverted DCS.

RF Safety
This two-way radio uses electromagnetic energy in the radio frequency (RF) spectrum to provide communications between two or more users over a distance. RF energy, which when used improperly, can cause biological damage. Please refer to the following websites for more information on what RF energy exposure is and how to control your exposure to assure compliance with established RF exposure limits: http://www.who.int/en/ Keeping the radio at a proper distance is important as RF exposure decreases with increasing distance from the proper antenna. A proper antenna is an antenna supplied with this radio by the manufacturer or specifically authorized by the local authority for use with this radio. This radio can only be operated by use of an antenna of a type and maximum (or lesser) gain approved for the transmitter under regulations and rules. This transmitter must operate with the antenna(s) documented and in Push-to-Talk and body-worn configurations as documented. Using authorized accessories is important because the use of Non-Retevis accessories may result in exposure levels, which exceed the IEEE/ICNIRP RF exposure limits. Transmit no more than the rated duty factor 50% of the time. Transmitting necessary information or less, is important because the radio generates measurable RF energy exposure only when transmitting in terms of measuring for standards compliance. For users who wish to further reduce their exposure, some effective measures to reduce RF exposure include:
- Reduce the amount of time spent using your wireless device.
- Use a speakerphone, earpiece, headset, or other hands-free accessory to reduce proximity to the head (and thus head exposure). While wired earpieces may conduct some energy to the head and wireless earpieces also emit a small amount of RF energy, both wired and wireless earpieces remove the greatest source of RF energy (handheld device) from proximity to the head and thus can greatly reduce total exposure to the head.
- Increase the distance between wireless devices and your body.
- This radio is designed for and classified as “Occupational/Controlled Use Only”. Occupational/Controlled environments are defined as locations where there is exposure that may be incurred by people who are aware of the potential of exposure, for example, as a result of employment or occupation. It means a radio must be used only by individuals aware of the hazards, and the ways to minimize such hazards;
- Not intended for use in a General population/uncontrolled environment.
Hand-held Mode:
To control your exposure and ensure compliance with the controlled environment exposure limits, always adhere to the following procedure:
- To receive calls, release the PTT button.
- To transmit (talk), press the Push-to-Talk (PTT) button in front of the face.
- Hold the radio in a vertical position with the microphone (and other parts of the radio including the antenna) at least one inch (2.5 centimeters) away from the nose or lips.
Persons with pacemakers, implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICDs) or other active implantable medical devices should:
- Consult with their physicians regarding the potential risk of interference from radio frequency transmitters, such as portable radios (poorly shielded medical devices may be more susceptible to interference).
- Turn the radio OFF immediately if there is any reason to suspect that interference is taking place.
- Do not carry the radio in a chest pocket or near the implantation site, and carry or use the radio on the opposite side of the body from the implantable device to minimize the potential for interference.
Hearing Aids: Some digital wireless radios may interfere with some
hearing aids. In the event of such interference, you may want to consult your
hearing aid manufacturer to discuss alternatives.
Other Medical Devices: If you use any other personal medical device,
consult the manufacturer of your device to determine if it is adequately
shielded from RF energy. Your physician may be able to assist you in obtaining
this information.
Turn off your radio in the following conditions:
- Turn off your radio prior to entering any area with a potentially hazardous or explosive atmosphere. Only radio types that are especially qualified should be used in such areas as “Intrinsically Safe”.
Note: the areas with potentially explosive atmosphere referred to above include blasting caps, blasting areas, inflammable gas, dust particles, metallic powders, grain powders, fueling areas such as below decks on boats, fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities, areas where the air contains chemicals or particles (such as grain, dust or metal powders) and any other area where you would normally be advised to turn off your vehicle engine. Areas with potentially explosive atmospheres are often – but not always posted.
- Turn off your radio when taking on fuel or parked at gasoline service stations.
- Turn off your radio when on board an aircraft. Any use of a radio must be in accordance with applicable regulations per airline crew instructions.
- Do not use any radio that has a damaged antenna. If a damaged antenna comes into contact with the skin when the radio is in use, a burn can result.
- Turn off your radio before removing or installing accessories.
- When the transceiver is used for long transmissions, the radiator and chassis will become hot.
Use of Communication Devices While Driving
- Always check the laws and regulations on the use of radios in the areas where you drive. Use of Communication Devices, for example, mobile radio, may not be allowed.
- Give full attention to driving and to the road.
- Use hands-free operation, if available.
- Pull off the road and park before making or answering a call, if driving conditions or regulations so require.
- Do not place a portable radio in the area over an air bag or in the airbag deployment area. The radio may be propelled with great force and cause serious injury to occupants of the vehicle when the airbag inflates.
Protect your hearing
- Use the lowest volume necessary to do your job. Turn up the volume only if you are in noisy surroundings.
- Limit the amount of time you use headsets or earpieces at high volume.
- When using the radio without a headset or earpiece, do not place the radio’s speaker directly against your ear.
- Use carefully with the earphone maybe possible excessive sound pressure from earphones and headphones can cause hearing loss.
CAUTION: Exposure to loud noises from any source for extended periods of time may temporarily or permanently affect your hearing. The louder the radio’s volume, the less time is required before your hearing could be affected. Hearing damage from loud noise is sometimes undetectable at first and can have a cumulative effect.
Batteries Safety
- WARNING: KEEP NEW OR OLD USED BATTERIES OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN.
- In the event of a battery leaking, do not allow the liquid to come into contact with the skin or eyes. If contact has been made, wash the affected area with copious amounts of water and seek medical advice immediately.
- If a radio or a battery has been submerged in water, please dry and clean it before use. Do not dry the radio or battery with an appliance or heat source, such as a hair dryer or microwave oven. If the radio has been submersed in a corrosive substance (e.g. saltwater), rinse the radio and battery in fresh water, then dry them.
- Since batteries are sensitive to high temperatures when storing them, keep them in a cool and dry place. The recommended temperature should be between +10 °Cand +25°Cand never exceed +30°C. Batteries should therefore not be stored next to radiators or boilers nor in direct sunlight. Extremes of humidity (below 35% and above 95% relative humidity for sustained periods should be avoided since they are detrimental to both batteries and packing. Although the storage life of batteries at room temperature is good, storage is improved at lower temperatures provided special precautions are taken. Also, accelerated warming is harmful.
Leaving a battery in an extremely high temperature surrounding environment
that can result in an explosion or the leakage of flammable liquid or gas;
A battery subjected to extremely low air pressure may result in an explosion
or the leakage of flammable liquid or gas.
- Turn off your radio before removing or installing a battery. Store spare batteries securely. Dispose of used batteries immediately and safely.
- The battery supply terminals are not to be short-circuit.
- Do not replace the battery in any area labeled “Hazardous Atmosphere”. Any sparks created in a potentially explosive atmosphere can cause explosion or fire.
- When the conductive material such as jewelry, keys or chains touches exposed terminals of the batteries, may complete an electrical circuit (short circuit the battery) and become hot to cause bodily injury such as burns.
