INSTRUCTION MANUALThis device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the condition that this device does not cause harmful interference.VHF MOBILE TRANSCEIVERiF9511SiF9511T
iRWARNING! NEVER connect the transceiver to an AC outlet. This may pose a fire hazard or result in an electric shock.NEVER connect the transceiver to a power source of more than 16 V DC such as a 24 V battery. This connection will ruin the transceiver.NEVER cut the DC power cable between the DC plug and fuse holder. If an incorrect connection is made after cutting, the transceiver might be damaged.NEVER place the transceiver where normal operation of the vehicle may be hindered or where it could cause bodily injury.NEVER allow children to touch the transceiver.NEVER expose the transceiver to rain, snow or any liq-uids.USE the specified microphone only. Other microphones have different pin assignments and may damage the trans-ceiver.DO NOT use or place the transceiver in areas with tem-peratures below –30°C (–22°F) or above +60°C (+140°F), or in areas subject to direct sunlight, such as the dashboard. PRECAUTIONSWORD DEFINITIONRWARNING Personal injury, fire hazard or electric shock may occur.CAUTION Equipment damage may occur.NOTE If disregarded, inconvenience only. No risk of personal injury, fire or electric shock.READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS carefully and com-pletely before using the transceiver.SAVE THIS INSTRUCTION MANUAL — This instruction manual contains important operating instructions for the IC-F9511S/T VHF MOBILE TRANSCEIVERS.IMPORTANTIcom, Icom Inc. and the logo are registered trademarks of Icom Incorpo-rated (Japan) in the United states, the United Kingdom, Germany, France, Spain, Russia and/or other countries.All other products or brands are registered trademarks or trademarks of their respective holders.EXPLICIT DEFINITIONSSee the operating guide for details of MDC 1200 system and P25 Trunking system operations.

iiPRECAUTIONSAVOID operating the transceiver without running the ve-hicle’s engine. The vehicle’s battery will quickly run out if the transceiver transmits while the vehicle’s engine OFF.AVOID placing the transceiver in excessively dusty envi-ronments.AVOID placing the transceiver against walls. This will ob-struct heat dissipation.AVOID the use of chemical agents such as benzine or alcohol when cleaning, as they damage the transceiver sur-faces.BE CAREFUL! The transceiver will become hot when operating continuously for long periods.For U.S.A. onlyCAUTION: Changes or modifications to this transceiver, not ex-pressly approved by Icom Inc., could void your authority to operate this transceiver under FCC regulations.ABOUT APCO PROJECT 25This device made under license under one or more of the following US patents: #4,590,473, #4,636,791, #5,148,482, #5,185,796, #5,271,017, #5,377,229.The IMBE™ voice coding Technology embodied in this prod-uct is protected by intellectual property rights including patent rights, copyrights and trade secrets of Digital Voice Systems, Inc.

Therefore “01234” and “56789” are the same.KEYNUMBER 0549382716P0 P4P3P2P1P0 P4P3P2P1*In this instruction manual, these keys are from the left, called [P0]/[P1]/[P2]/[P3]/[P4].e When the “PASSWORD” indication does not clear after inputting 6 digits, the input code number may be incorrect. Turn the power off and start over in this case.n Channel selectionSeveral types of channel selections are available. Methods may differ according to your system set up.NON-ZONE TYPE:Push [CH Up] or [CH Down], or rotate [CH Up/Down] to select the desired operating channel, in sequence; or, push one of [MR-CH 1] to [MR-CH 4] keys to select a channel di-rectly.ZONE TYPE:Push [Zone] then push [CH Up] or [CH Down], or rotate [Zone Up/Down] to select the desired zone.AUTOMATIC SCAN TYPE:Channel setting is not necessary for this type. When turning power ON, the transceiver automatically starts scanning. Scanning stops when receiving a call.
102BASIC OPERATIONn Call procedureWhen your system employs tone signaling (excluding CTCSS and DTCS), the call pro cedure may be necessary prior to voice transmission. The tone signalling employed may be a se-lective calling system which allows you to call specific station(s) only and prevent unwanted stations from contacting you.q Select the desired TX code channel, 2-tone code, Indi-vidual ID code* or Talkgroup ID code* according to your System Operator’s instructions. • This may not be necessary depending on programming. • Refer to pgs. 11–13 for selection. *Digital mode operation only.w Push the call key (assigned to one of the dealer program-mable keys; except for the Digital mode operation) or [PTT].e After transmitting, the remainder of your communication can be carried out in the normal fashion.Selective calling Non-selective callingn Receiving and transmittingReceiving:q Push [ ] to turn the power ON.w Push [CH Up] or [CH Down], or rotate [CH Up/Down] to select a channel, in sequence.e When receiving a call, adjust the audio output level to a comfortable listening level.Transmitting:Wait for the channel to become clear to avoid interference.q Take the microphone off hook. • 2-tone mute may be released. (The ‘audible’ condition is se-lected and BUSY indicator lights green.) • A priority channel may be selected automatically.w Wait for the channel to become clear. • The channel is busy when BUSY indicator lights green.e Push [CALL] when initiating a call from your side. • Coded audio may be heard from the transceiver, then “ ” appears. • This operation may not be necessary depending on your signal-ing system. Ask your dealer for details.r While pushing and holding [PTT], speak into the micro-phone at your normal voice level.t Release [PTT] to receive. IMPORTANT: To maximize the readability of your signal; 1. Pause briefly after pushing [PTT]. 2. Hold the microphone 5 to 10 cm (2 to 4 inches) from your mouth, then speak into the microphone at a nor-mal voice level.
112BASIC OPERATION2D Transmitting notes• Transmit inhibit functionThe transceiver has several inhibit functions which restrict transmission under the following conditions:- The channel is in mute condition (‘Inaudible’ condition; “ ” does not appear.)- The channel is busy.- Un-matched (or matched) CTCSS is received.

Your Icom radio generates RF electromagnetic energy during transmit mode. This radio is de-signed for and classified as “Occupational Use Only”, meaning it must be used only during the course of employment by individuals aware of the hazards, and the ways to minimize such hazards. This radio is NOT intended for use by the “General Population” in an uncontrolled environment.• For compliance with FCC and Industry Canada RF Exposure Re-quirements, the transmitter antenna installation shall comply with the following two conditions: 1. The transmitter antenna gain shall not exceed 0 dBi. 2. IC-F9511S/T: The antenna is required to be located outside of a vehicle and kept at a distance of 48 centimeters or more between the trans-mitting antenna of this device and any persons during operation. For small vehicle as worst case, the antenna shall be located on the roof top at any place on the centre line along the vehicle in order to achieve 48 centimeters separation distance. In order to ensure this distance is met, the installation of the antenna must be mounted at least 48 centimeters away from the nearest edge of the vehicle in order to protect against exposure to bystanders.To ensure that your exposure to RF electromag-netic energy is within the FCC allowable limits for occupational use, always adhere to the fol-lowing guidelines:• DO NOT operate the radio without a proper antenna attached, as this may damage the radio and may also cause you to exceed FCC RF exposure limits. A proper antenna is the antenna supplied with this radio by the manufacturer or an antenna specifically au-thorized by the manufacturer for use with this radio.• DO NOT transmit for more than 50% of total radio use time (“50% duty cycle”). Transmitting more than 50% of the time can cause FCC RF exposure compliance requirements to be exceeded. The radio is transmitting when the “TX indicator” lights red. You can cause the radio to transmit by pressing the “PTT” switch.Electromagnetic Interference/CompatibilityDuring transmissions, your Icom radio generates RF energy that can possibly cause interference with other devices or systems. To avoid such interference, turn off the radio in areas where signs are posted to do so. DO NOT operate the transmitter in areas that are sensitive to electromagnetic radiation such as hospitals, aircraft, and blasting sites.W AR N IN GC AU T IO N185SAFETY TRAINING INFORMATION
