Comply with this information and instructions in order to ensure compliance with RF exposure guidelines.e the capability to access information in that form. This radio is intended for use in occupational/controlled conditions, where users have full knowledge of their exposure and can exercise control over their exposure to remain below RF exposure limits. This radio is NOT authorized for general population, consumer, or any other use. Changes or modifications not expressly approved by Shenzhen Excera Technology Co., Ltd.could void the user's authority to operate the equipment. WARNING CAUTION This two-way radio uses electromagnetic energy in the radio frequency (RF) spectrum to provide communications between two or more users over a distance. It uses RF energy or radio waves to send and receive calls. RF energy is one form of electromagnetic energy. Other forms include, but are not limited to, electric power, sunlight, and x-rays. RF energy, however, should not be confused with these other forms of electromagnetic energy, which, when used improperly, can cause biological damage. Very high levels of x-rays, for example, can damage tissues and genetic material. Experts in science, engineering, medicine, health, and industry work with organizations to develop standards for exposure to RF energy. These standards provide recommended levels of RF exposure for both workers and the general public. These recommended RF exposure levels include substantial margins of protection. All two-way radios marketed in North America are designed, manufactured, and tested to ensure they meet government-established RF exposure levels. In addition, manufacturers also recommend specific operating instructions to users of two-way radios. These instructions are important because they inform users about RF energy exposure and provide simple procedures on how to control it. Refer to the following websites for more information on what RF energy exposure is and how to control exposure to assure compliance with established RF exposure limits: http://www.fcc.gov/oet/rfsafety/rf-faqs.html http://www.osha.gov./SLTC/radiofrequencyradiation/index.html Important Information Federal Communications Commission Regulations Before it was marketed in the United States, the Digital portable radio was tested to ensure compliance with FCC RF energy exposure limits for two-way portable radios. When two-way radios are used as a consequence of employment, the FCC requires users to be fully aware of and able to control their exposure to meet occupational requirements. Exposure awareness can be facilitated by the use of a label directing users to specific user awareness information. The radio has an RF exposure product label. Also, the Product Safety Manual and this Operator’s Manual include information and operating instructions required to control RF exposure and to satisfy compliance requirements. Operation Safety Recommendations Occupational Safety Guidelines And Safety Training Information To ensure bodily exposure to RF electromagnetic energy is within the FCC allowable limits for occupational use.

In the process, you will hear the sequence number of the selected channel in the Zone Member list. ■ Selecting a Zone A zone is a group of channels exhibiting the same property. The radio supports 32 zones and each zone contains 16 channels at most. You may quickly toggle to your desired zone by pressing the programmed Zone Up or Zone Down key. ■ Transmit Time-Out The purpose of Transmit Time-Out is to prevent any user from occupying a channel for an extended period. If the preset time expires, the radio will automatically terminate the transmission. You may set the time via the CPS. 11 Digital Conventional Functions and Operations ■ Call Group Call To ensure that your speech is clear, keep the microphone 2.5 to 5 cm from your mouth. A group call refers to a call from an individual radio to a group of radios. Private Call Making a Group Call A private call is a call from an individual radio to another individual radio. In standby mode, hold down the PTT key to make a group call to the group call contact preset for the current channel. Making a Private Call In standby mode, hold down the PTT key to make a private call to the private call contact preset for the current channel. Receiving and Responding to a Private Call When a private call is received, you can listen to it without any operation and you may hold down the PTT key within the preset time period to call back. 12 Receiving and Responding to a Group Call When a group call is received, you can listen to it without any operation and you may hold down the PTT key within the preset time period to call back. Late Entry After a group call is established, it allows other group members to join this call. Late entry may occur in any of the following situations: ● The radio is powered on. ● The Channel Selector knob is rotated to the channel in operation. ● The radio is within the communication coverage of this group call. Digital Conventional Functions and Operations Color Code Rx Group List ■ With this option, you can receive multiple group calls on a digital channel. A Rx group list contains a maximum of 32 group contacts. You can set up to 32 Rx group lists using the CPS, each of which can be associated with a digital channel. Color code is used to identify a system. Users who wish to communicate with each other are assigned with the same color code. A radio ignores the channel activity which does not match the preset color code in this field, as it assumes the activity belongs to other systems. You may set this feature via the CPS. All Call ■ An all call is a call from an individual radio to every radio on the channel. Once this feature is activated, if you radio tilts to a specified gradient and is not placed upright within Man Down Delay Time, it will enter the emergency mode. This feature will be valid if is checked in the CPS. Note: The All Call ID is fixed and is set via the CPS. Man Down Making An All Call In standby mode, hold down the PTT key to make the all call to the all call contact preset for the current channel. 13 Analog Conventional Functions and Operations ■ Calls on Analog Channels To transmit on an analog channel, hold down the PTT key and speak into the microphone. To receive, release the PTT key. ■ CTCSS/CDCSS Type This option allows you to configure the current channel with a specific Rx CTCSS/CDCSS type. When the radio receives the signal, it will distinguish whether the received signal is CTCSS or CDCSS, and check out whether it matches the predefined CTCSS/CDCSS for the current channel before processing. Three types are available: CTCSS, CDCSS, and CDCSS Invert. Note: CDCSS is also known as DCS. CTCSS The radio checks for CTCSS match when receiving a signal on the current channel. Follow the procedure below to set CTCSS/CDCSS Type to CTCSS. Procedure: 1. Log in to the CPS. 14 2. Go to “Conventional -> Channel –> Analog Channel -> Selected Analog Channel” and set Rx/Tx CTCSS /CDCSS Type to CTCSS.
