Note: The Channel Name is your actual GMRS channel number. In this example, the radio is set to GMRS Channel 7 with a tone code 25.
RADIO FUNCTIONS
FUNCTION
Press [F] to toggle the function button.
VOLUME
Powers radio on/off and adjusts volume levels.
P1/SCAN
Long press [P1] to scan through radio channels.
P2/MONITOR
Press [P2] to adjust radio to “0” squelch mode allowing you to receive weaker
transmissions.
P3/SQL
Press [P3] to adjust squelch.
P4/BATTERY
Press [P4] to display the amount of volts the unit is receiving.
P5/LOCK
Long press [P5] to lock and unlock radio.
BRIGHTNESS
Press [F] + [P3] to adjust the LCD brightness level.
DISPLAY COLOR
Press [F] + [P4] to adjust the LCD display color.
CHANGING TONE CODE
Press [F] + [P5] to get to the desired tone type: “T”, “T SQ”, “DCS”, or “SQ
DCS”. “T” and “DCS” are transmit side only. “T SQ” and “SQ DCS” are transmit
and receive. Use the channel knob to change tone codes. Press [P5] to save.
Unless needed, use codes with “SQ” in them. Our tone codes use the same chart
and numbering system as listed in GMRS charts. To remove all tone codes on a
channel, press [F] + [P5], five times starting from the channel display.
EXIT
Press [P5] to exit out of menu options.
PART 15 COMPLIANCE
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to
the following two conditions:
- this device does not cause harmful interference, and
- this radio must accept any interference that may cause undesired operation.
Exposure To Radio Frequency Energy Your Rugged radio is designed to comply with the following national and international standards and guidelines regarding exposure of human beings to radio frequency electromagnetic energy.
- United States Federal Communications Commission, Code of Federal Regulations: 47 CFR part 2 sub-part J
- American National Standards Institute (ANSI)/Institute of Electrical & Electronics Engineers (IEEE) C95. 1-1992
- Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) C95. 1-1999 Edition
- National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurements (NCRP) of the United States, Report 86, 1986
- International Commission on Non-lonizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP) 1998
- To control your exposure and ensure compliance with the general population or uncontrolled environment exposure limits, transmit no more than 50% of the time. The radio generates measurable RF energy exposure only when transmitting.
Important: Changes or modifications to this unit not expressly approved by Rugged Radios could void your right to operate this unit. Your radio is set up to transmit a regulated signal on an assigned frequency. It is against the law to alter or adjust the settings inside the COMMUNICATOR to exceed those limitations. Any adjustment to your radio must be made by qualified technicians.
SAFETY
This radio generates RF electromagnetic energy during transmit mode. This
radio is designed for and classified as “Occupational Use Only,” meaning it
must be used only during the course of employment by individuals aware of the
hazards, and the ways to minimize such hazards. This radio is NOT intended for
use by the “General Population” in an uncontrolled environment. This radio has
been tested and complies with the FCC RF exposure limits for “Occupational Use
Only”. In addition, this radio complies with the following Standards and
Guidelines with regard to RF energy and electromagnetic energy levels and
evaluation of such levels for exposure to humans: FCC OET Bulletin 65 Edition
97-01 Supplement C, Evaluating Compliance with FCC Guidelines for Human
Exposure to Radio Frequency Electromagnetic Acids. American National Standards
Institute (C95.1-1992), IEEE Standard for Safety Levels with Respect to Human
Exposure to Radio Frequency Electromagnetic Fields, 3 kHz to 300 GHz. American
National Standards Institute (C95.3-1992), IEEE Recommended Practice for the
Measurement of Potentially Hazardous Electromagnetic Fields— RF and Microwave.
The following accessories are authorized for use with this product. use of
accessories other than those (listed in the instruction) specified may result
in RE exposure levels exceed the FCC requirements for wireless RE exposure.
To ensure that your exposuree to RF electromagnetic energy is within the FCC
allowable limits for occupational use, always adhere to the following
guidelines: DO NOT operate the radio without a proper antenna attached, as
this may damage the radio and may also cause you to exceed FCC RF exposure
limits. A proper antenna is the antenna supplied with this radio by the
manufacturer or antenna specifically authorized by the manufacturer for use
with this radio. DO NOT transmit for more than 50% of total radio use time.
Transmitting more than 50% of the time can cause FCC RF exposure compliance
requirements to be exceeded. The radio is transmitting when the ‘TX indicator’
lights up red. You can cause the radio to transmit by pressing the PTT switch.
ALWAYS keep the antenna at least 2.5 cm (1 inch) away from the body when
transmitting and only use the provided belt-clip to ensure FCC RF exposure
compliance requirements are not exceeded. To provide the recipients of your
transmission the best sound quality, hold the antenna at least 5 cm (2 inches)
from your mouth, and slightly off to one side. The information outlined in
this manual provides the user with the information needed to make him or her
aware of RF exposure and what to do in order to assure this radio is operated
safely within the FCC exposure limits.
ELECTROMAGNETIC INTERFERENCE/COMPATIBILITY DURING TRANSMISSION
Your radio generates RF energy that can possibly cause interference with other
devices or systems. To avoid such interference, turn off the radio inareas
where signs are posted to do so. DO NOT operate the transmitter in areas that
are sensitive to electromagnetic radiation such as hospitals, aircraft, and
blasting sites.
