D Programmable key reference Upper Lower 7 2 PANEL DESCRIPTION ` LED indicator The LED indicator indicates several information as follows; (Ref. ; R=Red, G=Green, O=Orange) · TX: Turns Red while transmitting a signal. R · RX: Turns Green while receiving a signal. G · Call LED (ON): When receiving a matched 2/5-tone. OO · Call LED (Blink): When receiving a matched 2/5-tone. O O · Fast/Slow scan: Blinks while Fast/Slow scan is activated. G G · Low BATT1: You should charge the battery. This function can be used for situations other than an emergency alert such as a security alarm for example. 11 3 CONVENTIONAL OPERATION I Turning power ON Rotate [VOL] to turn power ON. [VOL] I Channel selection IC-F14S/F24S: Toggle [CHANNEL SWITCH] to select the channel 1 or 2, or, push one of [MRCH 1] to [MR-CH 4] key to select a channel directly. · The memory channels 3 and 4 are available when [MR-CH 3] and [MR-CH 4] keys are assigned. [CHANNEL SWITCH] IC-F14/F24/F26-L: Rotate [CHANNEL SELECTOR] to select the desired operating channel, in sequence; or, push one of [MR-CH 1] to [MR-CH 4] key to select a channel directly. [CHANNEL SELECTOR] AUTOMATIC SCAN TYPE: Channel setting is not necessary for this type. When turning the power ON, the transceiver automatically starts scanning. Scanning stops when receiving a call. 12 CONVENTIONAL OPERATION 3 I 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 specific station(s) only and prevent unwanted stations from contacting you. q Select the desired TX code channel or 2/5-tone code according to your System Operator's instructions. · This may not be necessary depending on programming. 3 w Push the call key (assigned to one of the dealer programmable keys. ) (p. 11) e After transmitting a 2/5-tone code, the remainder of your communication can be carried out in the normal fashion. Selective calling Non-selective calling 13 3 CONVENTIONAL OPERATION I Receiving and transmitting NOTE: Transmitting without an antenna may damage the transceiver. 2 for antenna attachment. Receiving: q Rotate [VOL] to turn power ON. w Toggle [CHANNEL SWITCH] (IC-F14S/F24S), rotate [CHANNEL SELECTOR] (IC-F14/F24/F26-L) or push one of [MR-CH 1] to [MR-CH 4] key to select a channel. For IC-F14S/F24S: The memory channels 3 and 4 are available when [MR-CH 3] and [MR-CH 4] keys are assigned. e When receiving a call, adjust the audio output level to a comfortable listening level. Transmitting: Wait for the channel to become clear to avoid interference. q 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 on p.
