INSTRUCTION MANUAL
VHF AIR BAND TRANSCEIVER
iA110
This device complies with Part 15 of the
FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the
condition that this device does not cause
harmful interference.
FOREWORD
CAUTIONS
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS carefully and completely
R WARNING! NEVER operate the transceiver with a
headset or other audio accessories at high volume levels.
Hearing experts advise against continuous high volume operation. If you experience a ringing in your ears, reduce the
volume level or discontinue use.
before using the transceiver.
SAVE THIS INSTRUCTION MANUAL — This instruction manual contains important operating instructions for
the IC-A110.
NEVER connect the transceiver to an AC outlet or to a
EXPLICIT DEFINITIONS
The explicit definitions below apply to this instruction manual.
WORD
DEFINITION
RWARNING! Personal injury, fire hazard or electric shock
may occur.
CAUTION
NOTE
Equipment damage may occur.
If disregarded, inconvenience only. No risk
of personal injury, fire or electric shock.
Icom, Icom Inc. and the Icom logo are registered trademarks of Icom Incorporated (Japan) in Japan, the United states, the United Kingdom, Germany,
France, Spain, Russia and/or other countries.
power source of more than 27.5 V DC. Such a connection
will damage the transceiver.
NEVER connect the transceiver to a power source that is
DC fused at more than 5 A. Accidental reverse connection
will be protected by this fuse, higher fuse values will not give
any protection against such accidents and the transceiver will
be ruined.
DO NOT operate the transceiver near unshielded electrical
blasting caps or in an explosive atmosphere.
DO NOT connect the transceiver to a power source using
reverse polarity. This connection will not only blow fuses but
also may damage the transceiver.
DO NOT place unit in a non-secure place to avoid inadvertent use by children.
TABLE OF CONTENTS
DO NOT push [PTT] when not actually desiring to transmit.
DO NOT use or place the transceiver in direct sunlight or
in areas with temperatures below –30°C (–22°F) or above
+60°C (+140°F).
DO NOT place the transceiver in excessively dusty environments.
DO NOT place the transceiver against walls. This will obstruct heat dissipation.
DO NOT use harsh solvents such as benzine or alcohol to
clean the transceiver, as they can damage the transceiver’s
surfaces.
BE CAREFUL! The transceiver will become hot when operating continuously for long periods of time.
FCC caution: Changes or modifications to this transceiver,
not expressly approved by Icom Inc., could void your authority
to operate this transceiver under FCC regulations.

BASIC OPERATION
■ Squelch function
■ Dial select function
The transceiver has a noise squelch circuit to mute undesired
noise while receiving no signals.
Use the dial select function to adjust the tuning steps of the
[DIAL] keys. Use 1 MHz tuning when you want to change the
frequency in large increments; use regular tuning (25 kHz or
8.33 kHz) when you want to change the frequency in smaller
increments.

D Data cloning
Cloning allows you to quickly and easily
transfer the programmed contents from one transceiver to
another transceiver or data from a PC to a transceiver using
the optional CS-A110/EURO cloning software.
D Cloning using PC
Data can be cloned to and from a PC using the optional
CS-A110/EURO CLONING SOFTWARE and the optional OPC-478
CLONING CABLE+ OPC-592 CLONING CABLE ADAPTER. Consult the CSA110/EURO CLONING SOFTWARE HELP message for details.
D Transceiver to transceiver cloning

■ OPC-871 Headset adapter
When using a headset (supplied from 3rd party) with an
adapter, the transceiver outputs your transmitted voice to the
headset for monitoring. (pp. 5, 10)
D Connection
PTT switch
Use a PTT switch with a
3.5 mm diameter plug, if
required.
D Installation
The optional OPC-871 HEADSET ADAPTER is installed as
follows.
q Turn OFF the power, then disconnect the DC power
cable.
w Unscrew the 4 screws, then remove the bottom cover. (Fig. 1)
e Insert the connector as shown below. (Fig. 2)
r Mount the phone plug attachment together with the mobile
mounting bracket with 2 supplied screws. (Fig. 3)

FOR CLASS B UNINTENTIONAL RADIATORS
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with
the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of
the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential
installation. This equipment generates, uses 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.

SAFETY TRAINING INFORMATION
WA RN ING
Your Icom radio generates RF electromagnetic energy during transmit mode. This
radio is designed 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 Requirements, the transmitter antenna installation
shall comply with the following two conditions:
1. The transmitter antenna gain shall not exceed 0 dBi.
2. The antenna is required to be located outside of a vehicle
and kept at a distance of 38 centimeters or more between
the transmitting 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 38
centimeters separation distance. In order to ensure this
distance is met, the installation of the antenna must be
mounted at least 38 centimeters away from the nearest
edge of the vehicle in order to protect against exposure
to bystanders.
C AU TIO N
11
To ensure that your exposure to RF electromagnetic energy is within the FCC allowable limits for occupational use, always
adhere to the following 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 authorized 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”฀appears.฀You฀can฀cause฀the฀radio฀to฀transmit฀by฀pressing฀the฀“PTT”฀switch.
Electromagnetic Interference/Compatibility
During 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.
