D While operating D-STAR

PROBLEM
After your call, the repeat-
er does not return a status
reply.
After your call, the repeat-
er replies 'UR?' and its call
sign.
After your call, the repeat-
er replies 'RX' or 'RPT?'
and the access repeater's
call sign.
After your call, the repeat-
er replies 'RPT?' and call
sign of the destination re-
peater.

and its call sign.
Even holding down ,
DR
the DR mode will not ap-
pear.
Even holding down
, the received
AUTO TUNE
RX�CS
call sign will not set to the
destination call sign.
A Local area call can be
made, but a Gateway call
or destination station call
cannot be made.
During transmission, "L"
appears on the LCD, and
the received audio is inter-
rupted.
"DV" and "FM" icons alter-
nately blink.
Simplex operation cannot
be made in the DR mode.
The digital code squelch
(CSQL) is impossible.
You don't know how to up-
date the repeater list.
POSSIBLE CAUSE
• The access repeater setting is wrong.
• The repeater setting is wrong.
• Your transmission did not reach the re-
peater.
• The call was successfully sent, but no sta-
tion immediately replied.
• Your own call sign (MY) has not been set.
• Your own call sign (MY) has not been reg-
istered on a gateway repeater, or the reg-
istered contents do not match your trans-
ceiver's setting.
• The repeater cannot connect to the desti-
nation repeater.
• The repeater is busy.
• The call sign of the destination repeater
is wrong.
• There is no repeater list in your radio.
• The call sign has not been correctly re-
ceived.
• When a received signal is weak, or a sig-
nal is received during scanning, the call
sign may not be received correctly. In that
case, "--------" appears and error beeps
sound, and a reply call cannot be made.
• MY call sign has not been registered on a
D-STAR repeater.
• While receiving through the internet, some
packets may be lost due to network error
(poor data throughput performance).
• While in the DV mode, an FM signal is
received.
• A call sign is programmed in "CALL SIGN"
of the Repeater list.
• Duplex mode (DUP+, DUP–) is set.
• A repeater frequency is programmed.
• The wrong digital code is set.

SOLUTION
• Select the correct repeater.
• Correct the repeater frequency, frequency
offset, or duplex setting.
• Wait until you are closer to the repeater
and try again.
• Wait for a while, and try again.
• Set your own call sign (MY).
• Register your own call sign (MY) on a
gateway repeater, or confirm the registra-
tion of the call sign.
• Check the repeater setting.
• Wait for a while, and try it again.
• Correctly set the destination repeater call
sign.
• Reload the repeater list using the CS-
7100 cloning software on the CD.
• Reload the repeater list using an SD card.
• Enter the Repeater list data directly into
the transceiver.
• Try it again, after the transceiver has cor-
rectly received the call sign.
• Register your own call sign (MY) on a
gateway repeater, or confirm the registra-
tion of the call sign.
• Wait a while, and try it again.
When the transceiver receives corrupted
data, and misidentifies it is as Packet
Loss, "L" is displayed, even if it is a Local
area call.
• Use a different operating frequency until
there are no FM signals on the original
frequency.
• Delete the Call sign in "CALL SIGN" set-
ting of the Repeater list.
• Select "OFF" in "DUP" setting of the re-
peater list.
• Enter a simplex frequency.
• Set the correct digital code.
• See "Updating the repeater list."
