[. . . ] INSTRUCTION MANUAL VHF TRANSCEIVER UHF TRANSCEIVER iF30GT/GS iF40GT/GS This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must except any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation. SAFETY TRAINING INFORMATION Your Icom 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. W ARN ING This radio has been tested and complies with the FCC RF exposure limits for "Occupational Use Only. " In addition, your Icom 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 Fields. [. . . ] Push and hold the [Lock] switch for 1 sec. to toggle the lock function ON and OFF. · " "appears while the lock function is ON. · 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 [Priority A/A (Rewrite)/B] switch to select the priority channel. · "Prio A" or "Prio B"appears briefly, then the 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 A/B] switch to start/stop scan. · Scan pauses on a channel when receiving a signal. · Depending on programming, a message may appear while scanning. · "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 "Power-save function" again. 11 4 PROGRAMMABLE FUNCTIONS D HIGH/LOW POWER OUTPUT This function selects high or low power for a channel. Push the [High/Low] switch to change transmit output power between high, low1 and low2 power. ·" " appears when low1 or low2 output power is selected. D SCRAMBLER FUNCTION (optional UT-109 (#02)* or UT-110 (#02)* is required. ) This function provides higher communication security. 1020 (4 groups × 255) code numbers are available. Push the [Scrambler] switch to toggle the function ON and OFF. NOTE: NEVER use #01 Low AF level versions, as they are not compatible 12 PROGRAMMABLE FUNCTIONS 4 D MONITOR AUDIBLE FUNCTION The monitor function allows you to open the transceiver's 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] (LMR) or [Moni (Audi)] (PMR) switch to select the audible condition. while pushing the [Moni] (LMR) or Any audio mute functions are cancelled [Moni (Audi)] (PMR) switch. Inaudible condition: This condition mutes ALL signals except those directed to you. Therefore you should check a channel's condition (busy or not) with the monitor function before transmitting. Only signals containing the · Push the [Moni] (LMR) or [Moni (Audi)] proper tone are received. (PMR) switch momentarily to select the inaudible condition. 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 to toggle the function ON and OFF. 13 4 PROGRAMMABLE FUNCTIONS D DTMF TRANSMISSION This function allows you to send a pre-programmed DTMF code to control a repeater, open another transceiver's squelch, etc. Manual transmission: Push the desired digit keys in sequence while pushing [PTT]. · Pushing [PTT] may not be necessary depending on programming. Automatic pre-programmed transmission: q Push the [DTMF Autodial] switch to select DTMF autodial mode, then push [CH Up] or [CH Down] to select the desired channel. w Push the [DTMF Autodial] switch to send a DTMF code. D DTMF RE-DIAL FUNCTION This function allows you to transmit the last-used DTMF code at the push of a key. [. . . ] · BP-210/FM Ni-MH BATTERY PACK 7. 2 V/1650 mAh Ni-MH battery pack, allows approx. BP-210FM for the intrinsicaly safe type. · BP-211 Li-Ion BATTERY PACK 7. 4 V/1800 mAh Li-Ion battery pack, allows approx. D CHARGER · BC-119N DESKTOP CHARGER + AD-101 CHARGER ADAPTOR For rapid charging of battery packs. [. . . ]
