6.0 Basic Transceiver Operation-Quick Guide
To Turn the Transceiver On:
tery inserted, rotate the power/volume control knob clockwise. The col-
or LCD screen will come on with "INFINITY" as the defaulted start up
screen. In start up option, Battery Voltage may also appear if selected.
The radio will display the channel number and channel alias for both
banks of the radio, A and B. 128 channels per bank.
Increase or Decrease Volume as needed. If there is no one on frequen-
cy and nothing is heard from the unit's speaker, you may adjust volume
by pressing the MONITOR button (opening up the squelch), and then
adjusting the volume level as needed. See Page 15, Section 7.1 for
preprogrammed Channel Defaults from the Factory.
Squelch:
The transceiver has a preset squelch level which may be
adjusted (in the Squelch set-up/programming mode either in the soft-
ware or by using the front keypad. To do so USING THE RADIO: with
the LCD screen lit and to the lower left hand coroner, the word "MENU"
will be present. Press the [ — ] key immediately below the word
"MENU". Rotate the channel selector going thought the various menus
that appear until you see "RADIO SET". Press the [ — ] button below
the word "SELECT" and rotate the channel selector once more until you
see the word "SQL LEVEL" appears on the screen. Press the [ — ]
once more and select the entry. SQL level 9 closes the squelch level
threshold, while SQL level 1 opens up the squelch. Select as desired.
Press [ — ] BACK repeatedly to exit and save.
This should be set to "5" for normal operation.
Transmitting:
It is common practice to hold down the MONITOR but-
ton momentarily (Button "SK2", Page 10), to open up the squelch and
defeat the CTSS/DCS tone that may have been programmed to avoid
transmitting while another station using another CTCSS or DCS tone is
on your radio frequency but not on your tone. If this is the case, you
may also consult the "receive signal bar meter" that also shows relative
receive signal strength. If another station is on frequency you will see
the received signal on this bar graph. Also is there is another station
the GREEN LED on the unit will also light up. If the MONI button would
be pushed, ( you would then hear the other station.)
Consult your communications officer for use of the this formality and
see if it applies to your agency. Transmit only when the channel is
clear. If the radio was set up for BCL (Bust Channel Lock out), a Beep
will be heard from the radio speaker indicating that the channel is occu-
pied, and will not allow you to turn the transmitter on using the PTT key
until the channel is clear.
