   1SP200  FCC RF EXPOSURE COMPLIANCE REQUIREMENTS FOR OCCUPATIONAL USE ONLY The Federal Communications Commission (FCC), with its action in General Docket 93-62, November 7, 1997, has adopted a safety standard for human exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) electromagnetic energy emitted by FCC regulated equipment.  Maxon subscribes to the same safety standard for the use of its products. Proper operation of this radio will result in user exposure far below the Occupational Safety and Health Act (OSHA) and Federal Communications Commission limits.   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. • This radio is NOT approved for use by the general population in an uncontrolled environment. This radio is restricted to occupational use, work related operations only where radio operator must have the knowledge to control the user’s exposure conditions for satisfying the higher exposure limit allowed for occupational use. • When transmitting, hold the radio in a vertical position with its microphone 1 inche (2.5 cm)        away from your mouth. • The radio is transmitting when the red LED on the front of the radio is illuminated. You can                    cause the radio to transmit by pressing the PTT bar on the radio. • These are required operating configurations for meeting FCC RF exposure compliance.                    Failure to observe these restrictions mean violation.   RF EXPOSURE COMPLIANEC 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.  Operating Instructions: • 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. The antenna should be kept away from eyes.  • When worn on the body, always place the radio in a Maxon Telecom approved clip, holder, holster, case, or body harness for this product. Using approved body-worn accessories is important because the use of Maxon Telecom or other manufacturer’s non-approved accessories may result in exposure levels which exceed the FCC’s occupational/controlled environment RF exposure limits.  • Use only Maxon Telecom approved supplied or replacement antennas, batteries, and accessories.  Use of non-Maxon Telecom approved antennas, batteries, and accessories may exceed the FCC RF  exposure guidelines.

Channel Select/Channel Group Select  The SP-200 Radio is capable of up to 13  programmed groups with up to 16 channels per group for a total channel capacity of 199 channels. To change channels press and release the ▲ or ▼ buttons to change channels (remove). A press and hold will scroll through your programmed channels. Channel numbers will appear in the LCD located at top of unit.  If your radio has been programmed for Channel Group Scan you must enter the scan mode by pressing the scan button which is the first button located beneath the PTT button. The Channel Group to be scanned will be shown in the display. In order to change the Channel Group press the ▲ or ▼ buttons to select desired group to be scanned.  Transmit CAUTION OPERATION OF THE TRANSMITTER WITHOUT  A PROPER ANTENNA INSTALLED MAY RESULT IN PERMANENT DAMAGE TO THE RADIO  1) Press the monitor button to monitor the channel for activity. To  avoid interrupting another user, make sure the channel is clear    before you begin transmitting.  NOTE: Federal Communications Commission Rules and Regulations require that you monitor a channel for activity before transmitting.  NOTE: The tri-color LED located on the top panel can help with channel monitoring. It will glow amber if RF activity is present; or green if the transmission has a CTCSS or DCS tone that matches a tone programmed for receive in your radio. When this LED is not illuminated, the radio is indicating a "clear" channel.  2) When the channel is clear, hold the radio upright with the antenna vertical and the front microphone area about 2-3 inches from the mouth, keeping the antenna away from the face and eyes. Press and hold the P-T-T bar on the side of the radio, and speak slowly and clearly into the microphone area.   NOTE: The LED will glow red when transmitting. This indicator should be on continuously while the P-T-T bar is being pressed and the radio is transmitting. Should the red LED be "flashing", the battery needs to be recharged and transmission will cease. Recharge the battery before attempting more than one transmission.   Receive When you have finished transmitting, release the P-T-T bar to receive.  Power Off When finished transmitting, receiving, monitoring, etc., turn the radio off by rotating the on/off-volume control fully counter-clockwise, to the detent position.  Status Indicators and Audible Alert Tones  Your SP-200 Radio has a sophisticated microprocessor control which provides a series of audible alert tones.  Upon initial power up, a quick melody indicates that the self-test of  the microprocessor functions has been completed satisfactorily. A  series of tones may be sounded with any of the following conditions:  · Attempt to transmit on a channel set for receive only · Attempt to transmit on a channel that is already in use when busy   channel lockout has been programmed into the radio * · Transmitting time has exceeded time-out timer programmed length * · Low battery condition  · Selecting a channel with no programmed frequency   * Indicates a function that is initially programmed into the radio by your  Maxon Dealer.    NOTE: All audible tones can be programmed off for silent operation.

Your Dealer will help you define a scanning mode and your channel "scan list" .    Normal Channel Scan Once the scan list has been established you can initiate scan by press and release of scan button, first button  located beneath the PTT button. The top panel LED can be programmed to flash green as the radio is scanning.  If a conversation is detected on any of the channels in the scan list, the radio will stop on that channel and you will be able to hear the conversation. If programmed for normal scan TX you will be able to transmit on that active channel during the pro-grammable scan delay time. The scan delay time is the amount of time the radio will stay on that channel once activity has ceased (Dealer programmable, 4-7 seconds is typical). The radio will resume scanning once the scan delay time has expired. Scanning will continue until the channel is changed.     Priority Channel Scan A single channel may be programmed as the "Priority" channel. The radio will constantly monitor this channel while scanning and when the radio has stopped on an active channel. If a call is detected on the "Priority" channel, the radio will automatically move to, and remain on, the "Priority" channel for as long as the priority conversation takes place. "Priority" channel activity takes precedence over all other conversations.  To activate Priority scan press and release the scan button, first button beneath the PTT button. When priority scan has been activated display will show PS to indicate priority scan has been activated. ( Remove)   Other Scanning Features  · Look Back: Any channel, when not in the scan mode, can be programmed to "look back" at the "Priority" channel. (Remove) This feature  is ideal for those who do not need scan as defined above, but want to make sure that they never miss a call on the "Priority" channel if another channel has been selected. Once a "look back" (Remove) channel other than the priority channel  has been selected, the radio will periodically "look back" at the Priority" channel. If activity is detected on the "Priority" channel,  the radio will move to that channel for as long as it remains active. To enter look back mode, press and hold the scan button, first button located beneath the PTT button. PS will be shown in the display and the LED will flash green.   NOTE: Look Back  requires that the radio leave the active channel for a fraction of a second (at regular intervals) to check the priority channel for activity. Depending upon how the radio is programmed (scan speed, etc.) this may or may not be noticeable as "breaks" on the active channel for that same fraction of a second. A transmission will be made on the selected channel at all times.  ·   Scan Channel Delete: To temporarily delete a channel from the scan list, simply press the monitor button while scanning and stopped on the channel to be deleted. This will remove that channel from the scan list until the channel is changed or the radio's power is reset. When power is restored or the scan list channel position is again selected, the original Dealer programmed scan list will be activated.  ·   CTCSS/DCS Scanning: The SP-200 Radio can be programmed by your Dealer to scan for tone. This will help block out unwanted calls.  ·  Normal Scan TX: Allows a transmission only after a call is received, depending on the programmed scan delay time. After the scan resumes, and a transmission is made, the radio will sound an   alarm (two beeps) , display_h and will not allow a transmission.  ·   Priority Scan TX: Allows a transmission after a call is received depending on programmed scan delay time. The transmission will      be made on the channel that the call was received. After the scan resumes, if a transmission is made, the radio will transmit on the        programmed priority channel.
   7·   Priority Only TX: Allows a transmission on the priority channel when scanning and not stopped on an active channel. It can also be programmed to ( Remove) will always transmit on the priority channel if scanning      or stopped on an active channel.  ·   Receive Only Scan: This allows only reception. If a transmission is made at any time, the radio will sound an alarm (two beeps) ,, display  r0 and will not allow the transmission.
