iiPrecautionsAvoid water and salt in the I/O connector and keep it clean frequently.Only use original Thrane & Thrane battery packs. Make sure they are clean and dry before attaching the transceiver. Be careful not to damage any gaskets.Only use the original Thrane & Thrane charger for the rechargeable battery.Be very careful when handling the Lithium batteries. With correct use they are safe but any misuse might cause dangerous situations.Never short circuit the battery terminals, never expose the transceiver and the batteries to extreme temperature or fire and never use any kind of violence.Avoid close contact between the antenna and parts of the human body. The top of the antenna must never be closer than 5 cm to the body when transmitting.Do not submerge the transceiver more than 1 m for 30 minutes.Keep the transceiver at least 0.3 m away from the magnetic compass.0709
iiiTraining informationSAILOR SP3515 VHF is designed for "occupational use only". It must be operated bylicensed personnel only.The SP3515 complies with the FCC RF exposure limits for "Occupational Use Only". • FCC OET Bulletin 65 Supplement C, evaluating compliance with FCC guidelines for human exposure to radio frequency electromagnetic fields.• American National Standards Institute (C95.1) IEEE standard for safety levels with respect to human exposure to radio frequency electromagnetic fields, 3 kHz to 300 GHz.• American National Standards Institute (C95.3) IEEE recommended practice for the measurement of potentially hazardous electromagnetic fields - RF and microwaves.Correct useFor best performance, hold the radio vertically and 10 cm away from the head when talking into the microphone.Warning! Your Thrane & Thrane VHF radio generates electromagnetic RF (radio frequency) energy when transmitting. To ensure that you are not exposed to excessive amounts of energy and thus to avoid health hazards from excessive exposure to RF energy, all persons must be at least 5 cm away from the antenna when the radio is transmitting.0703

Operation8Using the VHFBasic functionsSwitching the radio on and off•To switch the radio on, turn the knob at the top of the radio clockwise. The display lights up showing the last used channel and the battery level.•To switch the radio off, Turn the knob back counter-clockwise until it clicks.Selecting the working channel• To select channel 16 (Distress or Safety), press the 16/C key.• To select the Call channel, use a long press on 16/C.• To select among all available channels, press S or T on the keypad. For fast selection, press and hold S or T. The display shows the currently selected channel. The bottom left corner of the display shows “Dup” if the channel is a duplex channel.Note Before using the radio, mount the antenna at the top of the radio. The antenna is delivered with the radio. Note Long press on S or T can also be used to select preferred channels. For information on how to program preferred channels, see Configuring the radio on page 19.0643
Operation9Activating a callTo activate a call to the selected channel, press and hold the PTT button on the side of the radio.The radio transmits as long as the PTT button is pressed. A small Tx sign next to the channel num-ber indicates when the radio is in transmit mode.Adjusting the volume•To increase the volume, turn the on/off knob at the top of the radio clockwise.•To decrease the volume, turn the knob counter-clockwise.The display shows the level of the volume, e.g. “VOL 5”, while it is adjusted. Using Squelch control•To activate Squelch control, press the SQ key.•To set the Squelch level, press S (closing) or T (opening). The display shows the Squelch level while it is adjusted, e.g. “SQ 5”.Adjusting the display backlight•To turn on the backlight, press the Light/Lock button on the side of the radio.•To adjust the backlight level, press S or T within 3 seconds after turning on the light.The display shows the level while it is adjusted, e.g. “DIM MED”.0643
Operation10Using Dual/Triple watch•To activate Dual/Triple watch, press the SCN key.The display shows “Dual” or “Tri” at the top and “16” at the bottom right. The radio toggles between the selected channel and channel 16 in Dual watch. In Triple watch, the radio shifts between channel 16, the call channel and the selected channel.To select whether the SCN key should activate Dual or Triple watch, refer to Configuring the radio on page 19.•To terminate Dual watch, press SCN again.Scanning channels•To activate channel memory scanning, press 2 times SCN within 2 seconds. During scanning, the display shows “SC” in the channel field. The radio toggles between channel 16 and each of the channels marked for scanning.•To terminate scanning, press SCN once.Changing the transmitter powerTo change the transmitter power, press the Hi/Lo key. The display shows “Lo” when power is set to low. Otherwise maximum power is used.Locking the keypad•To lock the keypad, press and hold the Light/Lock button. The display shows a key symbol when the keypad is locked.•To unlock the keypad, press and hold the Light/Lock button again.0703
Operation11Other functionsProgramming the Call channelTo program the Call channel, do as follows:1. Press and hold 16/C until the current Call channel number is flashing.2. Select the channel with S or T.3. Press 16/C to confirm.Programming the channel memoryTo add a channel to the channel memory, select the channel and then press and hold the SCN key until the display shows MEM at the top.To remove a channel from the channel memory, select the channel and then press and hold the SCN key until the MEM sign disappears from the display.Low power operationThe radio can be operated in low power mode. In this mode battery life time is dramatically increased. Up to the first second of a received call might be lost if this mode is selected. Refer to SLEEP on page 21.Continuous Tone Coded Squelch SystemOn channels where it is allowed, you can set up selective squelch opening by sub-tone detection (CTCSS), using the configuration mode (see CTCSS on page 24). Please note that if the radio is operating with CTCSS on a channel, it is impossible to receive a normal signal on that channel. For this reason, be very careful not to use CTCSS programmed channels in emergency situations. Channels programmed with CTCSS will 0643
Operation12have a clear identification in the service field, e.g. "CTCSS 22", while selected. Not all channels are allowed for CTCSS use. In maritime channel modes CTCSS is automatically disabled when • Product is turned off • A new channel is selectedFor private channels and ALT channel mode, the feature will remain until manually removed.ScramblerOn channels where it is allowed, you can set up voice scrambling, using configuration mode (see SCRM on page 25). Please note that if the radio is operating with scrambling on a channel, it is impossible to communicate with other radios that are not programmed with the same scrambler code. For this reason, be very careful not to use scrambled channels in emergency situations. Scrambled channels will have a clear identification in the service field, e.g. "SCRM 3", while selected. Not all regions allow the use of voice scrambling.In maritime channel modes scrambling is automatically disabled when• Product is turned off • A new channel is selectedFor private channels and ALT channel mode, scrambling will remain until manually removed.Narrow band operationThe radio is prepared for narrow band operation. If narrow band operation is selected (see BAND on page 25), the number of channels are doubled in the maritime channels, according to international 0703
Operation13recommendations. Refer to the channel table in Channels on page 2. Channels are clearly identified with a preceding 4- or 2-digit, while operating in narrow band mode. Narrow band radios will not always be completely compatible with wide band operating radios.0703

Technical specifications36Battery life guidelinesDuring daily use, always keep the battery fully charged and away from hot areas.Keep the battery terminals dry and clean.Never discharge beyond the specifications of the battery.Operation/Standby time depends on usage. Generally, the more the radio is transmitting, the faster it will drain the battery. Also, the “Hi” power setting will drain the battery faster than the “Lo” setting.Approximate figures are:• A battery can be stored for 4 to 6 month at 25°C if charged to 25%.• The battery will normally last for 5 to 9 hours of use on a fully charged battery. Note New batteries should be placed in the charger for minimum 12 hours first time.0709
