Basic Operation

Power On/Off of the Vehicle Mounted Station

• Power On of the Vehicle Mounted Station
  Under the shutdown state, press the key for a second to turn on the walkie-talkie. After the walkie-talkie begins to beep loudly and there appear some messages on the LCD display screen, directions and the present operating frequency will show on the screen.
• Power Off of the Vehicle Mounted Station
  Under the shutdown state, press the key for a second to turn off the walkie-talkie.
  As the walkie-talkie is turned off, the present parameters can be stored in it and will be shown autimatically for the next time when the power is on again.

Volume Control

Adjust the Frequency with the Tuning Knob

Under the VFO mode, adjust and select the frequency that needs to be adjusted with the [DIAL] knob. Clockwise adjustment is to increase the frequency, and the anticlockwise adjustment is to decrease the frequency. One notch can increase or decrease it by one step value.

As 1MHz adjusting step value is selected, the number below 100kHz will disappear. As to adjust the frequency of the main engine, press the corresponding [DIAL] knob, you will enter the adjustment mode of MHz. With this state, modify the band switch, and the frequency can be immediately adjusted by 1MHz step value.

Usage of the [▼]/[▲] Keys

• Press the key to select the frequency range (left or right)as the main band.
• Press the [▼]/[▲] to select the frequency you want.

Notes: push the [▲] for one time can increase the value by one step, holding down the [▼]/[▲] can adjust the frequency continuously.

Input the Frequency with Mic Number

Under the mode of the main frequency range, you can input the frequency by the mic keyboard. You will fail as the input frequency is beyond the range. For example, the frequency is set as 145.36250MHz

Notes: If the frequency range has been set to a range, the frequency whatever you input or modify will be limited within the present effective frequency range of the VFO.

Selecting the Output Power

There are 3 notches of out power with the walkie-talkie to meet your needs. If you are going to communicate within a short distance, the low power output can be turned on to reduce the interference to other stations and the power consumption.

• Press the key a few times to select the output power

S/RF Display	POWER OUTPUT
	VHF/UHF Taiwan
High Power:	50W/50W 25W
Medium Power:	15W*/15W* 15W*
Low Power:	5 W*/5 W* 5W*

The output power can be changed in the process of transmission.
The output power can also be selected by microphone keyboard.
Press the key on the microphone keyboard first, and then press the key to respectively select the high power, medium power and low power.

Single Frequency/Dual Frequency Operation

You can monitor the two frequencies during the operation of dual frequency. There are two independent receiving circuits: the left frequency range and the right frequency (can be used to different frequencies, modes and functions). Only one frequency can be monitored during the operation of single frequency.

1. Press the key, the function menu will be displayed.
2. Press the [SNGL(] the right frequency range )to select the mode of the single-band operation. You can operate with the [DIAL], [MAIN-BAND], [VOL], [VFO-SCAN] and the [M/CALL·MW] that are placed to the left frequency band and the right frequency band.
   
3. Press the key, the function menu will be displayed. Afterwards, you can press the [DUAL] (right frequency ) to back to the dual frequency operation.
   

Selection of the VFO Channel, MR Channel and CALL Channel

• Under the standby mode, as the vehicle mounted station is in VFO mode, you can press the key to switch it to MR storage pattern, press the again, it can be swtiched to the mode of CALL channel.
• Under the standby mode, as the vehicle mounted station is in the mode of MR stirage or the CALL channel mode, press the key, and it can be changed to the VFO mode.

Duplex Slection

It is used to select a transmitting frequency that is above (+) or below (-) the receiving frequency.

1. Under the standby mode, press the [MAIN·BAND] key to select the left side frequency band or the right frequency band as the main mode.
2. Press the key to select the –DUPLEX, + DUPLEX or the simplex mode in turn.

Programming Chanel

The frequency and the related data that are used frequently can be stored in the memory channel so that you do not need to program them evey time. Only with simple opeation can you reload the programmed channel.

1. Set the frequency at the expected frequency band
   • Press the [VFO·SCAN] of the expected frequency band to select the VFO mode
   • To set the receiving frequency, the DUPLEX, and the CTCSS/DCS according to your needs.
2. Hold down the [M/CALL·MW] that is in the same channel for 1 second.
   • 2 alert sounds
   • The indicator of "MR" and the storage channel number begin to blink.
3. Switch the [DIAL], select the storage channel to program.
   • The storage channel that has not been progranmmed should be empty.
4. Hold down the [S.MW]( M/CALL·MW) (the left side frequency band)for a second to enter the programming operation.
   • 3 alert sounds

As the storage channel number increases automatically, press the [M/CALL·MW] to cintinue the programming.

Delete the Channel

Steps that are used to clear the single storage channel:

1. Press the [VFO·SCAN] select the frequency band (the left side frequency band or the right side frequency band)that the VFO needs.
2. Hold down the [M/CALL·MW] of the corresponding band for one second.
   • The indicator of "MR" and the storage channel number begin to blink.
3. Switch the [DIAL] and select the storage channel that needs to be cleared.
4. Hold down the [CLR](DUP·MONI) for one second to clear.
   • As there appears 3 alert sounds, the frequency is cleared.
   • The indicator of "MR" and the storage channel number blink on and off.
   • After the CALL channel is cleared, the presentVFO will reenter the CALL channel and do the programming automatically.
5. Press the [BACK](V/MHz·SCAN)(the righ side frequency band) and back to the VFO mode.
