4 I 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. Topaz3 / Legacy 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. I.1 CAUTION VHF AND UHF RADIOS (PL5151/PL5164) 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 2 inches (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. I.2 CAUTION VHF RADIO (PL5151) • This device has been approved for use, at a maximum duty factor of 50%, using the specific belt clip and leather belt-holster tested for body-worn SAR compliance. Other belt clips or body-worn accessories may not comply and should be avoided. ALWAYS use authorized accessories: antennas, batteries, belt clips, speaker microphones, etc. I.3 CAUTION UHF RADIO (PL5164) • This device has been approved for use, at a maximum duty factor of 50%, using the specific leather belt-holster (ACC-304) tested for body-worn SAR compliance. Other belt clips or body-worn accessories may not comply and should be avoided. ALWAYS use authorized accessories: antennas, batteries, belt clips, speaker microphones, etc. • If you wear the transceiver on your body, using the metal belt-clip p/n 560-100-0017, ensure that the antenna is at lease 2 inch (5cm) from your body while your are transmitting

8 VI GETTING STARTED VI.1 CHARGING THE NIMH BATTERY PACK You will need to charge the battery pack fully before initial use. For best results from your charging cycle, follow these tips: • Ensure the ambient temperature is between 41 and 104° F (5 and 40° C) while charging. Temperatures outside this range may not fully charge the battery. • Always switch OFF the transceiver equipped with a NiMH battery pack before charging. Using the radio during the charging cycle will hinder correct charging. • Do not recharge the battery pack if it is already fully charged. Doing so may cause the life of the battery pack to shorten or the battery pack may be damaged. • If the battery is stored for 2 months or more, it is a good idea to complete the charge / discharge cycle two or three times to allow the battery capacity to return to normal. • Never dispose of the battery in fire - it can explode causing personal injury. • Never attempt to disassemble the battery or remove its case material or charging contacts. Do not short the battery terminals. NOTE: The first few uses from the battery will not be at “normal” capacity. After repeating the charge / discharge cycle two or three times, the battery capacity will increase to provide full capacity. 1. Plug the AC adapter cable in the adapter jack located on the rear of the charger, then into an AC outlet. 2. Slide the NiMH battery pack (or the radio equipped with a NiMH battery pack) into the charging slot. 3. Ensure that the metal contacts on the battery pack come in contact with the charging terminals. 4. When charging the NiMH battery pack alone, insert the provided plastic spacer (stored in charger base) into the charging well, then insert the battery pack. 5. The charger LED will light to advise that charging has begun. Charge the standard battery pack for 9 hours. THEN REMOVE THE PACK OR RADIO FROM THE CHARGER. IMPORTANT NOTE: The ACC-410 SLOW charger DOES NOT TURN OFF AUTOMATICALLY after the charging cycle has been completed. Damage to the battery or reduced battery life may result if charged in excess of the recommended charging time. VI.2 ATTACHING AND REMOVING THE BATTERY PACK NOTE: After recharging the battery pack, REMOVE IT FROM THE CHARGER. Charging the battery pack for more than 5 days may reduce the battery life. The battery pack life is over when its operating time decreases even though it is fully and correctly charged. Replace the pack with the manufacturer’s recommended model. Average battery pack life from the supplied 750 mAh battery is 8+ hours; the optional 1350 mAh battery, 10+ hours. This service time is calculated using 90% standby, 5% transmit and 5% receive time and 5W operation. After charging the battery pack as described, you are ready to install it to the radio body. Simply; 1. Match the four grooves of the battery pack with the guides on the back of the radio. 2. Slide the battery pack up along the back of the radio until the release latch locks. To remove the battery pack, push down on the release latch and slide the pack downward, and away from the radio.

9 VI.3 INSTALLING THE ANTENNA Screw the antenna into the connector on the top of the radio by holding the antenna at its base and turning it clockwise until seated. Do not overtighten. The antenna should never be used to carry your radio, or as a base to clip radio accessories. Misuse of the antenna can cause damage, and reduce your radio’s performance. VI.4 INSTALLING THE BELT CLIP We recommend that the belt clip is installed on the radio. It keeps the radio from coming in contact with hot surfaces, and away from your body if heat build-up occurs with excess transmissions. Use the two supplied screws to install the belt clip. If a replacement is needed, use a screw designed to the exact specifications as the original, to prevent accidental contact with internal circuitry, or possible personal injury. Never use glue in conjunction with the provided screws. Some of the glue’s components may crack the radio back panel, causing radio damage and possible personal injury. VI.5 INSTALLING THE SPEAKER MICROPHONE JACK COVER If you are not using an accessory, install the provided cover over the speaker microphone jack using the screw supplied. This will keep the radio water resistant. VI.6 ATTACHING THE OPTIONAL SPEAKER MICROPHONE 1. Insert the speaker microphone jack into the radio. 2. Use the thumbscrew attachment on the speaker microphone to make connection to the radio. NOTE: The radio is not fully water resistant while the speaker microphone is attached.

10 VII RADIO OPERATION VII.1 POWER ON / TRANSMIT Power on the radio by turning the power / volume control clockwise out of detent. You will hear a confirmation tone on power-up. To check the radio volume, press and hold the monitor button then rotate the control to desired volume level. Use the channel switch to choose the desired channel. Press the monitor button to check the channel for activity. To avoid interrupting another user, make sure the channel is clear before you begin transmitting. To transmit, place the radio microphone approximately 2” (5 cm) from your mouth. Press and hold the PTT bar while speaking in a normal tone. Release the PTT bar when you are finished speaking; the radio will be placed into receive mode. When the battery pack voltage becomes too low for operation to continue, a tone will sound, LOW Batt will show in the display, the LED will blink red and the battery icon located in the lower left corner of the display will flash empty. The radio will allow only one more transmission - change or charge your battery. Refer to the “Low Battery Warning” section of this manual.

11 VIII RADIO FUNCTIONS VIII.1 TONE SIGNALING To help block out unwanted calls to your radio, the PL5151 and PL5164 can be programmed by your radio communications Dealer to look for tones. VIII.2 SCAN MODES Scanning is a Dealer programmable feature that allows you to monitor a number of channels. Your radio communications Dealer will help you define a scanning mode and your channel "scan list". Once the scan list has been established, initiate scan by pressing the SCAN button. The SCAN icon will show in the upper left corner of the display to confirm radio scanning. VIII.3 NORMAL CHANNEL SCAN 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. In normal scan, you will be able to transmit on that active channel during the programmable 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, and will continue to scan until the channel is changed. In scan mode, if radio power is turned off and on, the radio will return to the scan mode until a channel is changed. VIII.4 PRIORITY SCAN TX A single channel may be programmed as the "Priority" channel. The radio will constantly monitor this channel while scanning and when 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. Priority channel activity takes precedence over all other conversations. During the scan mode if a PTT is initiated the radio will transmit on the priority channel. VIII.5 PRIORITY LOOK BACK SCAN A single channel may be programmed as the "Priority" channel. The radio will constantly monitor this channel while scanning and when stopped on an active channel. If a call is detected on the priority channel “during a conversation”, the radio will automatically move to, and remain on, the priority channel. Priority channel activity takes precedence over all other conversations. VIII.6 PRIORITY SELECT SCAN The selected channel becomes the priority channel. As you change the channel that channels frequency will become your new priority channel. Priority channel activity takes precedence over all other conversations. VIII.7 VACANT CHANNEL SCAN The radio will automatically scan for the first open channel. Once a channel is found normal scan operation will take place. All radios you intend to communicate must be programmed for this same scan function. VIII.8 NUISANCE DELETE During receiving a signal or scan delay time, if the monitor button is pressed, the current receiving channel is deleted in scan list and is no longer scanned. When the power is turned off and on, the deleted channel is restored to the scan list. VIII.9 BUSY CHANNEL LOCKOUT When the RX signal is being received, the radio’s transmitter is disabled. Dealer programming makes this feature active or disabled. VIII.10 MARKED IDLE When used in conjunction with busy channel lockout, the transmitter is allowed to operate as long as valid RX tone is received. Dealer programming makes this feature active or disabled.

12 VIII.11 TX DELAY The TX will remain active for approximately 180 seconds even though P-T-T button is released when using CTCSS tones. This eliminates squelch tail by sending CTCSS turn-off code (No Tone TX). VIII.12 TIME-OUT-TIMER (TOT) The purpose of the time-out-timer is to prevent any single person from using a channel for an extended period. The time-out-time can be programmed from 10 seconds to 990 seconds by your radio Dealer. When active the TOT icon will show in the display. VIII.13 TIME-OUT-TIMER PENALTY (TX INHIBIT) When TOT is applied, transmission will be inhibited after time-out-time time expires. This TX inhibit time can be selected and programmed by your Dealer from 1 second to 100 seconds. For instance, when TOT is set to 3 minutes and TOT penalty is set to 5 seconds, if you continuously transmit for 3 minutes, the radio will stop transmitting. A tone will sound with each PTT bar press until the 5-sec. TX inhibit time expires. Press the P-T-T bar after the TX inhibit time expires to resume transmitting. VIII.14 BATTERY SAVE The battery save function decreases the amount of power used when a signal is not being received and no operations are being performed (no bars are being pressed, no controls are being used, etc.) When the channel is not busy and no operation is performed, battery save is enabled. When an operation is performed, or a signal is received, battery save is disabled. VIII.15 LOW BATTERY WARNING When the battery power goes below a pre-determined value, the LED will blink red and a tone sounds. The radio will then allow only one more transmission. After that, the transceiver will stop transmitting. Replace or recharge the battery pack. VIII.16 TWO-TONE DECODE Each channel can be programmed with two-tone decode by your radio communications Dealer. Two-tone selections are: Individual Call, Group Call and Super Group Call. VIII.17 VOX (VOICE OPERATED X-MIT) Allows your radio to PTT with the sound of your voice for hands free operation. Your radio has VOX sensitivity adjustment for noisy or windy conditions. VOX icon will be displayed when option is turned on.

13 IX MODE OPERATION AND FUNCTION SET UP Depending on how your dealer has programmed your radio you may be able to change certain mode and functions of your radio. Please consult your dealer regarding what functions are available with your radio. The following information is a menu tree with brief description and display reading of how to access radio mode functions. All functions are accessed or turned off or on by pressing the mode button. Using the up (∧) or down (∨) buttons move your radio display up and down each function feature. To exit press the PTT or wait for the radio to time out. IX.1 POWER ON Power on the radio by turning the power/volume control clockwise out of detent. You will hear a confirmation tone on power-up. When Power-on, all character and icon are displayed for around 0.7 sec. A beeps is sounded when the radio is ready to enter normal operation mode. * When Power-On, it checks the last Memory and if data is wrong, it will indicate the below display and beep an error tone. The radio enters normal operation with two beeps. IX.2 CHANNEL CHANGE Rotate Channel Knob to select the channel among 16 channels your display will change with each channel selection. Your channel display reading will vary depending on how your dealer programmed each channel description. IX.3 TRANSMIT - Press PTT button to transmit. If PTT button is released, the radio returns to receive mode. Both TX and RX mode are indicated by display icons. When VOX option is set and voice is input, the radio transmits the signal. If voice input stops, the radio maintains TX for around 2 sec. if there is no voice input, the radio returns to receive mode. IX.4 CHANNEL OPTION VIEW - In receiving mode, if the Monitor button is pressed for more than 2 sec., the RX tone option and the TX tone option for each channel selected will display for one sec. IX.5 LOW BATTERY - If Battery voltage goes under a predetermined value a Low Battery error message is shown for 2 sec. The battery Icon will flash. BEEP H BEEP H BEEP H
