OPERATION OVERVIEW Your dealer can program your transceiver for either Trunking Format or Conventional Format. ■ Trunking Format This format can handle up to 32 systems with up to 250 groups in each system. The transceiver can be used in both trunked mode and conventional mode. Systems, groups, and their functions are programmed by your dealer. ■ Conventional Format This format can handle up to 250 groups with 250 channels in each group. The transceiver can be used only in conventional mode. Groups, channels, and their functions are programmed by your dealer. 10 OPERATING BASICS ■ Switching Power ON/ OFF Turn the Power switch/ Volume control clockwise to switch the transceiver ON. Turn the Power switch/ Volume control counterclockwise to switch the transceiver OFF. If the Radio Password function is programmed, “PASSWORD” will appear on the display when the power is turned ON. To unlock the transceiver, enter the password, then press the S key. If you enter the wrong password, an error tone sounds and the transceiver remains locked. The password can contain a maximum of 6 digits. ■ Adjusting the Volume Rotate the Power switch/ Volume control to adjust the volume. Clockwise increases the volume and counterclockwise decreases it. ■ Selecting a System/ Group/ Channel Select the desired system and group (Trunking Format) using the encoder and the keys programmed with System or Group Up/ Down. Select the desired group and channel (Conventional Format) using the encoder and the keys programmed with Group or Channel Up/ Down. 11 ■ Time-out Timer (TOT) The purpose of the Time-out Timer is to prevent any caller from using a channel for an extended period of time. If you continuously transmit for a period of time that exceeds the programmed time, the transceiver will stop transmitting and an alert tone will sound. To stop the tone, release the PTT switch. Your dealer can program the TOT time in the range of 15 seconds to 10 minutes. 12 TRUNKED OPERATION (Trunking Format) ■ Placing a Dispatch Call 1 Select the desired system and group using the encoder and the System or Group keys. 2 Press the PTT switch. 3 If a tone does not sound, communication is possible; start speaking into the microphone. Release the PTT switch to receive. • For best sound quality at the receiving station, hold the microphone approximately 1.5 inches (3 ~ 4 cm) from your mouth. ■ Receiving a Dispatch Call 1 Select the desired system and group using the encoder and the System or Group keys. (If the Scan function has been programmed, you can switch it ON or OFF as desired.) 2 When you hear the dispatcher’s voice, readjust the volume as necessary. 13 CONVENTIONAL OPERATION (Trunking Format) ■ Transmitting 1 Select the desired system and group using the encoder and the System or Group keys. 2 Press the key programmed as Monitor to check whether or not the channel is free. • If the channel is busy, wait until it becomes free. 3 Press the PTT switch and speak into the microphone. Release the PTT switch to receive. • For best sound quality at the receiving station, hold the microphone approximately 1.5 inches (3 ~ 4 cm) from your mouth. ■ Receiving 1 Select the desired system and group using the encoder and the System or Group keys. (If the Scan function has been programmed, you can switch it ON or OFF as desired.) 2 When you hear the dispatcher’s voice, readjust the volume as necessary. 14 SYSTEM SCAN (Trunking Format) If the Scan function is programmed, systems can be scanned by pressing the key programmed as Scan. When the Scan key is pressed, the SCN indicator and “-SCAN-” or the revert system/ group number, appear on the display and scanning starts. The systems not locked out of the scanning sequence are scanned. When a call is received, scanning stops and the system and group digits appear. Press the PTT switch and speak into the microphone to respond to the call. The transceiver will continue scanning after a predetermined time delay if the PTT switch is released and no further signal is received. ■ Scanning Trunked Systems When scanning trunked systems, the revert groups and the groups not locked out of the scanning sequence are scanned. See “GROUP SCAN” on page 17. ■ Scanning Conventional Systems When scanning conventional systems, the revert groups and the groups not locked out of the scanning sequence are scanned. See “GROUP SCAN” on page 17. 15 ■ Scan Lockout If a programmable auxiliary key is programmed with Scan Del/Add, each system can be locked out of the scan sequence manually. The delete indicator ( s ) will appear on the display when the selected system is locked out. ■ Scan Revert You can select revert systems and groups using the encoder and the System or Group keys. Three types of Scan Reverts which can be programmed by your dealer are available: • Last Called Revert: The last system/ group received is assigned as the new revert system and group. • Last Used Revert: The last system/ group responded to is assigned as the new revert system and group. • Selected: The last system/ group selected is assigned as the new revert system and group. 16 GROUP SCAN (Trunking Format) Group Scan is available for both trunked and conventional systems. This feature is useful when more than one group is programmed in a system. Group Scan is set by your dealer on request. It scans the revert groups as well as groups that are allowed to be scanned. When a call is received, the group indicator shows the group number, and that group becomes the revert group. Simply press the PTT switch to respond to the call. You can also perform Group Scan while using a priority channel. Please contact your dealer for information concerning Priority Scan. 17 CONVENTIONAL OPERATION (Conventional Format) ■ Transmitting 1 Select the desired group and channel using the encoder and the Group or Channel keys. 2 Press the key programmed as Monitor to check whether or not the channel is free. • If the channel is busy, wait until it becomes free. 3 Press the PTT switch and speak into the microphone. Release the PTT switch to receive. • For best sound quality at the receiving station, hold the microphone approximately 1.5 inches (3 ~ 4 cm) from your mouth. ■ Receiving 1 Select the desired group and channel using the encoder and the Group or Channel keys. (If the Scan function has been programmed, you can switch it ON or OFF as desired.) 2 When you hear a caller’s voice, readjust the volume as necessary. 18 SCAN (Conventional Format) If the Scan function is programmed, groups or channels can be scanned by pressing the key programmed as Scan. Scan can be used as either Single Scan or Multi Scan. Single Scan monitors only the channels of a single group. Multi Scan monitors all channels of every group. When the Scan key is pressed, the SCN indicator and “-SCAN-” or the revert group/ channel number, appear on the display and scanning starts. When a call is received, scanning stops and the group and channel digits appear. Press the PTT switch and speak into the microphone to respond to the call. The transceiver will continue scanning after an adjustable time delay, if the PTT switch is released, and no further signal is received. When the displayed group is not locked out of the scanning sequence, the add indicator ( ) will appear on the display. ■ Priority Scan The priority channel must be programmed in order for Priority Scan to function. The transceiver will automatically change to the priority channel when a signal is received on it, even if a signal is being received on a normal channel. The indicator appears when the displayed channel is the priority channel. 19 2-TONE SIGNALLING (Conventional Format) 2-Tone Signalling is either activated or deactivated by your dealer. 2-Tone Signalling only opens the squelch when the transceiver receives two tones corresponding to those set up in the transceiver. When the squelch opens, you will be able to hear the caller without any further action. After a correct 2-Tone signal is received and the squelch opens, pressing the key programmed as Monitor will cancel the connection. If your dealer programmed Transpond for 2-Tone Signalling, your transceiver will automatically send an acknowledgment signal to the station that called you with the correct 2-Tone signal. Transpond does not function when you are called as a Group call. If your dealer programmed Tone Alert for 2-Tone Signalling, your transceiver will emit a beep when the correct 2-Tone signal is received. Note: This transceiver is only capable of decoding 2-Tone Signals. It cannot encode a 2-Tone Signal. 20 FleetSync™: ALPHANUMERIC 2-WAY PAGING FUNCTION FleetSync™ is an Alphanumeric 2-way Paging Function, and is a protocol owned by KENWOOD Corporation. FleetSync™ enables a variety of paging functions on your transceiver, some of which depend on dealer programming. ■ Key Functions Key Function Press to change the transceiver mode as shown in the diagram below.
