BASIC OPERATIONS Switch on / off Transceiver Switch on Transceiver: Under power-off state, turn POWER / VOLUME clockwise till hearing "Click" to switch on the transceiver. The transceiver will announce "Power on" when power-on. Switch off Transceiver: Under power-off state,turn POWER / VOLUME anticlockwise till hearing "Click"...
Page 25: Receiving
BASIC OPERATIONS Receiving You can hear the transmitting party's calling when the channel you are operating is called and the LED light turns green. NOTE: You may not receive the calling if you set a high squelch off level of the transceiver. If current channel has been programmed with signaling) you can only hear the call from a same signaling) other calls can not be heard.
Page 26: Advanced Operations
ADVANCED OPERATIONS The [PF1]、 [PF2]、 keys are programmable. They can realize the 、、 following functions by programming software. NOTE: The keys can be programmed of long press and short press , if program of short press, the function will be activated when press the programmed key , if program of long press, the function will be activated when press and hold the key for programmed time.
Page 27: Squelch Off
ADVANCED OPERATIONS Press this key again, transceiver emits "DU DU" beep and exits the monitor state. Squelch off Under sandby, press the programmed key of Squelch off, the squelch circuit is not mute, background noise can be heard. Press this key again, transceiver emits "DU DU" beep, the squelch circuit becomes mute.
Page 28: Frequency Reverse
ADVANCED OPERATIONS Under standby, press the programmed key of Squelch Levels Setup, LCD displays Squelch level "SQL XX", rotate channel switch to choose desired level. Total 10 squelch levels, 0-9, 0 is lowest, 9 is highest. NOTE: Press the programmed key of Squelch Levels Setup repeatedly, also can level. Frequency Reverse Under standby, press the programmed key of Frequency Reverse,LCD displays "REV ON"...
Page 29: Talk Around
ADVANCED OPERATIONS Talk Around Under standby, press the programmed key of Talk Around, screen displays "TALK ON" and enter into Talk Around state, press key again or wait 1 second, radio will return back to standby state, screen displays " " icon. Under Talk Around, transceiver will transmit at receiving frequency, the setting mute code (CTCSS/DCS) will use decode signal for encode transmitting.
Page 30: Instantaneously Squelch Off
ADVANCED OPERATIONS transmits at high power . when screen display " " icon, it means lower power is choosed, current channel transmits low power. when screen not display " " or " " icon, it means middle power is choosed, current channel transmits middle power.
Page 31: Scramble (Encryption)
ADVANCED OPERATIONS will start transmitting. Under this state, hold this key will send out Pilot frequency. NOTES: Pilot frequency of this transceiver is 1750HZ)2100HZ)1000HZ and 1450HZ)user can select needed Pilot frequency in programming software. Scramble (Encryption) This special audio process can offer a more confidential communication. It makes other transceiver of same frequency receive disordered noises only.
Page 32: Voice Prompt Setup

Page 36: Signaling Relations Setup
BACKGROUND OPERATIONS Signaling Relations Setup Users can set relations between CTCSS/DCS signal and DTMF signal by programming software. AND: Only when a matching CTCSS/DCS signal and a DTMF signal are received, can calling of other party be heard. OR: As long as a matching CTCSS/DCS signal or a DTMF signal is received, calling of the other party can be heard.
Page 37: Time-Out Timer
BACKGROUND OPERATIONS Time-out Timer The purpose of Time-out-timer is to restrict transceiver for continuous long-term transmission. When the continuous transmission time is beyond the due time transceiver is forced to stop transmitting and make a sound of beeping. Time-Out Timer Pre-Alarm The Time-Out Timer Pre-Alarm is to alarm users that overtime transmission is going to happen.
