Battery cautions

CAUTION! NEVER short the terminals of the battery pack (or charging terminals of the transceiver). Also, current may ow into nearby metal objects such as a necklace, so be careful when placing battery packs (or the transceiver) in handbags, etc. Simply carrying with or placing near metal objects such as a necklace, etc. causes shorting. This will damage not only the battery pack, but also the transceiver. NEVER incinerate used battery packs. Internal battery gas may cause an explosion. NEVER immerse the battery pack in water. If the battery pack becomes wet, be sure to wipe it dry BEFORE attaching it to the transceiver. Clean the battery terminals to avoid rust or miss contact. Keep battery contacts clean. Its a good idea to clean battery terminals once a week. If your battery pack seems to have no capacity even after being charged, completely discharge them, then fully charge the battery pack again. If the battery pack still does not retain a charge (or only very little charge), a new battery pack must be purchased.
D Recycling information (U.S.A. only) The battery (BP-209, BP-210 or BP-222) that you have purchased is recyclable. At the end of its life, under various state and local laws, it may be illegal to dispose of this battery into the municipal waste stream.

Charging NOTE
Prior to using the transceiver for the rst time, the battery pack must be fully charged for optimum life and operation. Recommended temperature range for charging: +10C to +40C (50F to 140F). Use the supplied charger or optional charger (BC-119/BC-121/BC144 for rapid charging, BC-146 for regular charging) only. NEVER use other manufacturers chargers. The optional BP-209, BP-210 or BP-222 battery packs include rechargeable Ni-Cd(Ni-MH: BP-210) batteries and can be charged approx. 300 times. Charge the battery pack before rst operating the transceiver or when the battery pack becomes exhausted. If you want to charge the battery pack more than 300 times, the following points should be observed: Avoid overchargingbatteries must be removed from the charger to stop charging. Batteries should not be charged for more than 15 hours after the LED indicator turns green. Use the battery until it becomes almost completely exhausted under normal conditions. D Battery pack life When the operating period becomes extremely short even after charging the battery pack fully, a new battery pack is needed.

NOTE: The charger rapidly charges a battery pack to a specied level, not a completed level, to prevent overcharging. Leave the battery pack in the charger for a few more hours (up to 15 hours; depending on battery condition) after the LED indicator turns green, to charge the battery completely. 10

Battery case (Option)

When using a BP-208 OPTIONAL BATTERY CASE attached to the transceiver, install 6 AA (R6) size alkaline batteries as illustrated below. NOTE: Output power is automatically reduced to 1 W to retain sufcient power in case of an emergency, etc.
D CAUTIONS Use ALKALINE batteries only. Make sure all battery cells are the same brand, type and capacity. Never mix old and new batteries. Either of the above may cause a fire hazard or damage the transceiver, if ignored. Never incinerate used battery cells since internal battery gas may cause them to rupture. Never expose a detached battery case to water. If the battery case gets wet, be sure to wipe it dry before using it.

PROGRAMMABLE FUNCTIONS

General
In the following explanations, programmable function names are bracketed, the specic switch used to activate the function depends on programming. D KEY LOCK FUNCTION1/2 This function locks access to all programmable switches (except the switch assigned for the lock function): Lock1: All Key Lock function; lockes all keys except Lock, PTT, CALL, Moni, Emergency keys and Channel selector SW. Lock2: Channel selector SW Lock function; lockes all keys except Lock, PTT, CALL, Moni and Emergency keys. Push and hold the [Lock1] or [Lock2] switch for 1 sec. to toggle the lock function ON and OFF. This function may be inhibited on some channels. D PRIORITY CHANNEL This function is used to select a pre-programmed channel at the push of a switch. Push the [PrioA], [PrioA(Rewrite)] or [PrioB] switch to select the priority channel. Priority channel is automatically selected.
D SCAN FUNCTION The scan function allows you to search a pre-programmed group of channels for signals. Push the [Scan] switch to start/stop scan. Scan pauses on a channel when receiving a signal. Lockout SCAN (pre-programmed list SCAN) or Priority SCAN can be pre-programmed. When the Power-save function is activated, the transceiver checks all pre-programmed channels then returns to the Powersave function again. D HIGH/LOW POWER OUTPUT This function selects high or low power for a channel. Push the [High/Low] switch to toggle between high and low power.

D MONITOR AUDIBLE FUNCTION The monitor function allows you to open the transceivers squelch manually to check whether a channel is busy or not. The transceiver has 2 conditions for receive standby: Audible condition: This condition mutes audio ONLY when no carrier is present. You can receive (or monitor) any signals on a channel. Push and hold the [Moni], switch to select the audible condition. Any audio mute functions are cancelled while pushing the [Moni] switch. Inaudible condition: This condition mutes ALL signals except those directed to you. Therefore you should check a channels condition (busy or not) with the monitor function before transmitting. Push the [Moni] switch momentarily to select the inaudible condition.

All signals are received

Only signals containing the proper tone are received
D TALK AROUND The talk around function changes duplex channels to simplex channels. Duplex allows you to contact your base station, repeaters, etc. Simplex allows you to contact other portable transceivers directly (portable-to-portable contact). Push the [Talk Around] switch one or more times to toggle the function ON and OFF.
D DTMF TRANSMISSION This function allows you to send a pre-programmed DTMF code to control a repeater, open another transceivers squelch, etc. Automatic pre-programmed transmission: Push the [DTMF Autodial] switch to send a DTMF code. D EMERGENCY FUNCTION The emergency function allows you to send your ID quickly and easily to your Base Station, etc. in case of emergency. Push and hold the [Emergency Single/repeat] switch for 1 sec. to activate the emergency function. The transceiver selects a pre-programmed channel, then sends an emergency signal to your Base Station. The pre-programmed channel remains selected until a control signal is received from the Base Station, or power is turned OFF. The emergency call is repeatedly transmitted at pre-programmed intervals. D MR-CH1, MR-CH2, MR-CH3, MR-CH4 This function temporarily allows you to select one of memory CH1 to CH4, when you push the [MR-CH14] key.
D CODE SQUELCH This conveniently eliminates unwanted audio and is useful in group activities or security related activities where unwanted output can be a problem. The function is similar to a CTCSS tone squelch. In order to use the above functions, cloning is necessary via a PC using the optional CS-F11 cloning software. Using this software, the transceivers model, individual RX Code CH, TX Code CH, Special Tone Link2 (must be E) in 5Tone screen, 5Tone Signaling Form in Memory-CH screen, Log, RX C-No, Key&Display, Common AutoReset TimerB, and other settings related to operation can be set. Refer to the HELP le that comes with the CS-F11 CLONING SOFTWARE for available settings.

CONVENTIONAL OPERATION

Receiving and transmitting
NOTE: Transmitting without an antenna may damage the transceiver. See p.4 for antenna attachment. Turn power ON as described on p. 2. Receiving: q Select a desired channel. w Listen for a transmission and adjust [VOL] to a comfortable listening level. When no transmission is heard, push and hold [Moni] (monitor) while adjusting [VOL] (your transceiver may not be programmed with the monitor function). The transceiver is now set to receive desired calls on the selected channel. Transmitting: Wait for the channel to become clear to avoid interference. e While pushing and holding [PTT], speak into the microphone at a normal voice level. When a tone signalling system is used, the call procedure described at right may be necessary. r Release [PTT] to return to receive. IMPORTANT: To maximize the readability of your transmitted signal, pause a few sec. after pushing [PTT], hold the microphone 10 to 15 cm from your mouth and speak at a normal voice level.

Call procedure

When your system employs tone signalling (excluding CTCSS and DTCS), the call procedure may be necessary prior to voice transmission. The tone signalling employed may be a selective calling system which allows you to call specic station(s) only and prevent unwanted stations from contacting you. q Select the desired Tx code channel or 5-tone code according to your System Operators instructions. This may not be necessary depending on programming. w Push the call switch (assigned to one of the dealer programmable switches: [Upper] and [Lower], etc.). e After transmitting a 5-tone code, the remainder of your communication can be carried out in the normal fashion.

Selective calling

Non-selective calling

Setting squelch level

The squelch circuit mutes the received audio signal depending on the signal strength. q While pushing [PTT] and [Lower], turn the transceivers power on to enter the squelch adjustment mode. w Push [Upper] to increase the squelch level (tight squelch) or [Lower] to decrease the squelch level (loose squelch).
Squelch level will be fixed after 1 sec.

[Upper] [PTT] [Lower]

Transmitting notes
D TIME-OUT TIMER After continuous transmission for a pre-programmed period, the time-out timer is activated causing the transceiver to stop transmitting, and automatically select receive. D PENALTY TIMER Once the time-out timer is activated, transmission is further inhibited for a period determined by the penalty timer.

CLONING

Cloning
Cloning allows you to quickly and easily transfer the programmed contents from one transceiver to another transceiver; or data from PC to a transceiver using the optional CS-F11 CLONING SOFTWARE.
D Transceiver-to-transceiver cloning NOTE: Transceiver-to-transceiver cloning is available between the same models on 2CH model to 16CH model or the opposite case cannot be cloned. q Connect the optional OPC-474 CLONING CABLE with adapter plugs to the [SP] jack of the master and slave transceivers.
The master transceiver is used to send data to the slave transceiver.
w While pushing [PTT] and [Upper], turn the transceivers power on to enter cloning mode (master transceiver onlypower ON only for slave transceiver). e Push [PTT] on the master transceiver.
NOTE: DO NOT push the [PTT] on the slave transceiver during cloning. This will cause a cloning error.

r When cloning is nished, turn power off, then on again to return to normal operation. D PC-to-transceiver cloning Please refer to the HELP le that comes with the CS-F11 CLONING SOFTWARE.
CAUTION: Imprudent cloning operation causes a cloning error. In such a case, memory contents may be lost. Cloning must then be repeated.
