DMO and RMO
Your radio supports both DMO and RMO modes.
DMO: You can set the Rx frequency of your radio to be
consistent with the Tx frequency using the CPS. In DMO
mode, your radio can communicate directly with another
radio.
RMO: You can set the Rx frequency of your radio to be
different from the Tx frequency via the CPS. In this mode,
your radio can communicate with another radio of the
same frequency configuration via a repeater.
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.
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.
2. Go to “Conventional -> Channel -> Analog Channel ->
Selected Analog Channel” and set Rx/Tx CTCSS/CDCSS
Type to CTCSS.
17
Note: CDCSS is also known as DCS.
Squelch Level
This option can reduce background noise by adjusting the
squelch level when the radio is receiving signals. You may
set the squelch level to Tight, Normal, or Open using the
CPS. Normal squelch level is the default. Tight squelch level
can filter weak signals, and allow only strong signals to be
received. If the squelch level is set to Open (This parameter
value is 0), the radio will turn on the speaker and background
noise will be heard.
Procedure:
1. Log in to the CPS.
2. Go to “Conventional -> Channel -> Analog Channel ->
Selected Analog Channel” and set Rx/Tx CTCSS/CDCSS
Type to CDCSS.
CDCSS Invert
The radio checks for an invert CDCSS match when receiving
a signal on the current channel.
Follow the procedure below to set CTCSS/CDCSS Type to
CDCSS Invert.
Procedure:
1. Log in to the CPS.
2. Go to “Conventional -> Channel -> Analog Channel ->
Selected Analog Channel” and set Rx/Tx CTCSS/CDCSS

FCC Statement
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital
device, pursuant to part 15 of FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide
reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This
equipment generates and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and
used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio
communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a
particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or
television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the
user is encouraged to try to correct.
The interference by one or more of the following measures:
Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna. Increase the separation between the
equipment and receiver.
Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the
receiver is connected.
Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help
Operation is subject to the following two conditions: 1. This device may not cause harmful
interference, and 2. This device must accept any interference received, including
interference that may cause undesired operation.
Note:” Changes or modifications to this unit not expressly approved by the party
responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.”
Compliance with RF Exposure Standards
Excera 2-way radio complies with the following RF energy exposure standards and
guidelines:
United States Federal Communications Commission, Code of Federal Regulations; 47
CFR §§ 1.1307, 1.1310 and 2.1093
• American National Standards Institute (ANSI) / Institute of Electrical and Electronic
Engineers (IEEE) C95. 1-1992
• Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE)2014/53/EU Edition
RF Exposure Compliance and Control Guidelines and
Operating Instructions
To control your exposure and ensure compliance with the occupational/controlled
environment exposure limits always adhere to the following procedures.
Guidelines:
Do not remove the RF Exposure Label from the device.
• User awareness instructions should accompany device when transferred to other users.
• Do not use this device if the operational requirements described herein are not met.
Operating Instructions:
• Transmit no more than the rated duty factor of 50% of the time. To transmit (talk), push
the Push-To-Talk (PTT) button. To receive calls, release the PTT button. Transmitting
50 % of the time, or less, is important because this radio generates measurable RF
energy exposure only when transmitting (in terms of measuring for standards
compliance).
• Hold the radio in a vertical position in front of face with the microphone (and the other
parts of the radio, including the antenna) at least one inch (2.5 cm) away from the nose.
Keeping the radio at the proper distance is important because RF exposures decrease
with distance from the antenna. Antenna should be kept away from eyes.
• When worn on the body, always place the radio in a Excera’s approved clip, holder,
holster, case, or body harness for this product. Using approved body-worn accessories is
important because the use of Excera’s or other manufacturer’s non-approved accessories
may result in exposure levels, which exceed the FCC’s occupational/controlled
environment RF exposure limits.
If you are not using a body-worn accessory and are not using the radio in the intended
use position in front of the face, then ensure the antenna and the radio are kept at least
2.5 cm (one inch) from the body when transmitting. Keeping the radio at the proper
distance is important because RF exposures decrease with increasing distance from the
antenna.
• Use only Excera's approved supplied
or replacement antennas, batteries,
and accessories. Use of non-manufacturer-name approved antennas, batteries, and
accessories may exceed the FCC RF exposure guidelines.
This device complies with Innovation, Science, and Economic Development Canada
licence-exempt RSS standard(s). Operation is subject
to the following two conditions:
(1) this device may not cause interference, and
(2) this device must accept any interference, including interference that may cause
undesired operation of the device.
Le présent appareil est conforme aux CNR d' Innovation, Sciences et Développement
économique Canada(Innovation,SciencesetDéveloppementéconomiqueCanada)
applicables aux appareils radio exempts de licence. L'exploitation est autorisée aux deux
conditions suivantes :
(1) l'appareil nedoit pas produire de brouillage, et
(2) l'utilisateur de l'appareil doit accepter tout brouillage radioélectrique subi, même si le
brouillage est susceptible d'en compromettre le fonctionnement.
