25 WIRELESS CONTROL (TH-D74A ONLY)

If you also have a KENWOOD multi-band mobile transceiver,
you can control one of its bands by sending DTMF tones from
this handy transceiver. You will find this function useful when
you want to control your mobile transceiver from a location
outside your vehicle.
Note:
◆ You can remotely control only mobile transceivers that have
both the secret number and Remote Control functions.
◆ FCC rules permit you to send control codes only on the 440
MHz band.

PREPARATION

Let us assume the VHF band of the mobile transceiver will be
controlled.
On the TH-D74A:
1 Access Menu No. 946.
The current secret access code number appears.
2 To change the secret number, press the numeric keys (0 to
9) to enter a 3-digit number.
On the mobile transceiver:
1 Set the ID code to the same secret number you set on the
handy transceiver.
• For the method, refer to the instruction manual for the
mobile transceiver.
2 Select the receive frequency on the UHF band.
• Match this frequency with the transmit frequency of the
handy transceiver.
3 Enter the transceiver's Remote Control mode.
• For the method, refer to the instruction manual for the
mobile transceiver. If it is not described, consult your
authorized KENWOOD dealer, customer service, or
service center.

CONTROL OPERATION

1 Press and hold [PTT].
2 While transmitting, press [ENT].
• The last called DTMF Memory channel number.
3 While still transmitting, press [
control to select your desired remote control number (RM0
~ RM#), then press [ENT] to transmit DTMF code.
Note:
◆ If using a handheld without a remote control function, manually
send "AXXX#YA#" where "XXX" is a 3-digit secret number and
"Y" is a single-digit control command. If you do not add "A#" to
the end, you can skip sending "AXXX#" next time; however, the
mobile may be accidentally controlled by other stations.
