[. . . ] USING [TX CODE CH UP]/[TX CODE CH DOWN] KEY: If the transceiver has a [TX Code CH Up] or [TX Code CH Down] key assignment, the programmed TX code channel can be selected directly when pushed. NOTE for PMR or BIIS PMR operation: · The LCD indication does not change when the operating channel number (or name) is displayed. (Depending on the pre-setting) · To check the selected TX code, push [TX Code CH Select]. D Transmitting notes · Transmit inhibit function The transceiver has several inhibit functions which restrict transmission under the following conditions: - The channel is in mute condition (`Inaudible' condition; " " does not appear. ) - The channel is busy. - Un-matched (or matched) CTCSS is received. (Depending on the pre-setting. ) - Un-matched (or matched) NAC is received. * (Depending on the pre-setting. ) - The selected channel is a `receive only' channel. · Time-out timer After continuous transmission for the pre-programmed time period, the time-out timer is activated, causing the transceiver to stop transmitting. · Penalty timer Once the time-out timer is activated, transmission is further inhibited for a period determined by the penalty timer. 14 BASIC OPERATION D TX code number edit (PMR or BIIS PMR operation only) If the transceiver has [TX Code CH Select] or [TX Code Enter] assigned to it, TX code contents can be edited within the allowable digits. USING [TX CODE CH SELECT] KEY: q Push [TX Code CH Select] to enter the TX code channel selection mode. · Select the desired channel before entering the TX code channel selection mode if necessary. 3 USING [TX CODE ENTER] KEY: q Select the desired TX code channel via [TX Code CH Select]+[CH Up] or [CH Down], [TX Code CH Up] or [TX Code CH Down]. w Push [TX Code Enter] to enter the TX code edit mode. e Push [TX Code Enter] to select the desired digit to be edited. · The digit to be edited blinks. 3 w Push and hold [TX Code CH Select] for 1 sec. e Push [TX Code CH Select] to select the desired digit to be edited. · The digit to be edited blinks. r Push [CH Up], [CH Down] or 10-keypad* to set the desired digit. t Push [TX Code Enter] to set the digit. The digit to the right will blink automatically. · When the 10-keypad* is used for setting, the digit to the right will blink automatically without pushing [TX Code CH Enter]. r Push [CH Up], [CH Down] or 10-keypad* to set the desired digit. t Push [TX Code CH Select] to set the digit. The digit to the right will blink automatically. · When the 10-keypad* is used for setting, the digit to the right will blink automatically without pushing [TX Code CH Select]. y Repeat r and t to input all allowable digits. u Push [Call] or [PTT] to transmit the edited TX code. *IC-F70DT/T or IC-F80DT/T only y Repeat r and t to input all allowable digits. u Push [Call] or [PTT] to transmit the edited TX code. *IC-F70DT/T or IC-F80DT/T only 15 3 BASIC OPERATION D Talkgroup ID code selection (Digital mode operation only) If the transceiver has [Talkgroup] assigned to it, the indication can be toggled between the operating channel number (or name) and Talkgroup ID code (or name). When the Talkgroup ID code (or name) is displayed, [CH Up] or [CH Down] selects the desired Talkgroup ID code. q Push [Talkgroup]-- a Talkgroup ID code (or name) appears. w Push [CH Up] or [CH Down] to select the desired Talkgroup ID code. e Push [PTT] to transmit the selected Talkgroup ID code. r Change the channel-- cancels the selected Talkgroup ID code (return to the pre-set Talkgroup ID code in the channel. ) D Individual ID code selection (Digital mode operation only) If the transceiver has [Individual] assigned to it, the indication can be toggled between the operating channel number (or name) and Individual ID code (or name). When the Individual ID code (or name) is displayed, [CH Up] or [CH Down] selects the desired Individual ID code. [. . . ] Then, push [Up] or [Down] to set the desired level/condition. r Rotate [VOL] to turn the power OFF to exit set mode. · VOX Gain The VOX sensitivity level can be adjusted from OFF or 1 to 6 (more sensitive). [Up] Push [Down] SET X TXC SET X TXC 0. 5 sec (min. ) (default) 3. 0 sec (max. ) NOTE: MIC/VOX gain can be adjusted via the Adjusting pot using a thin screw driver. 9 [Up] Push [Down] SET X TXC SET X TXC VOX function is OFF VOX gain level 3 (default) 39 10 SAFETY TRAINING INFORMATION To ensure that your expose to RF electromagnetic energy is within the FCC allowable limits for occupational use, always adhere to the following guidelines: C AU TIO N 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 W ARN ING the course of employment by individuals aware of the hazards, and the ways to minimize such hazards.
