VX-2200 (LTR) SERIES OPERATING MANUAL 1INTRODUCTIONThe VX-2200(LTR) Series are full-featured FM transceivers designed for flexiblemobile and base station business communications in the VHF or UHF Land Mobilebands. These transceiver are designed for reliable business communications in awide variety of applications with a wide range of operating capability provided bytheir leading-edge design.The 128-channel memories can each be programmed with a 8-character channelname.Important channel frequency data is stored in EEPROM and flash memory on theCPU, and is easily programmable by dealers using a personal computer and theVERTEX STANDARD Programming Cable and CE94 Software.The pages which follow will detail the many advanced features provided on the VX-2200(LTR) Series transceiver. After reading this manual, you may wish to consultwith your Network Administrator regarding precise details of the configuration ofthis equipment for use in your application.For North American Users Regarding 406 MHz Guard BandThe U.S. Coast Guard and National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Ad-ministration have requested the cooperation of the U.S. Federal Communica-tions Commission in preserving the integrity of the protected frequency range406.0 to 406.1 MHz, which is reserved for use by distress beacons. Do notattempt to program this apparatus, under any circumstances, for operation inthe frequency range 406.0 - 406.1 MHz if the apparatus is to be used in ornear North America.Vertex Standard Co., Ltd.FCC ID: K6610844740/IC ID: 511B-10844740

VX-2200 (LTR) SERIES OPERATING MANUAL6BASIC OPERATION OF THE TRANSCEIVERImportant! - Before turning on the radio the first time, confirm that the power con-nections have been made correctly and that a proper antenna is connected to theantenna jack.Switching Power ON/OFFTurn the VOL/PWR knob turn on the radio. The display will become illuminated.Press the [T]/[S] button to choose the desired operating group. A group namewill appear on the display. If you want to select an operating group from adifferent zone, press the PF (Programmable Function) button which is pro-grammed to the Zone Up/Down feature to select the zone you want before se-lecting the operating group. See page 7 for more information on the Program-mable Function keys.Setting the VolumeTurn the VOL/PWR knob clockwise to increase the volume, and counterclock-wise to decrease it.TransmittingCONVENTIONAL SYSTEMTo transmit, monitor the channel and make sure it is clear.THIS IS AN FCC REQUIRMENT!Press the PF button which is programmed to the Monitor feature to listen forchannel activity.When receiving a call, transmit only after the incoming call ends. The radiocannot receive a call and transmit simultaneously.Press the PTT switch.If the channel is clear, the TX/BUSY indicator will glow red. The radio is nowtransmitting. While holding in the PTT switch, speak across the face of the micro-phone in a clear and normal voice. For best transmission, hold the microphoneabout 1-1/2 to 2 inches away from your mouth. Release the PTT switch to receive.If the Busy Channel Lockout feature has been programmed on a channel, theradio will not transmit when a carrier is present. Instead, the radio will generatea short beep three times and indicate “* ERRORERRORERRORERRORERROR *” on the display. Release thePTT switch and wait for the channel to be clear of activity.If CTCSS or Digital Coded Squelch (DCS) Lockout has been programmed on achannel, the radio can transmit only when there is no carrier being received orwhen the carrier being received includes the correct CTCSS tone or DCS code.Vertex Standard Co., Ltd.FCC ID: K6610844740/IC ID: 511B-10844740
VX-2200 (LTR) SERIES OPERATING MANUAL 7CONVENTIONAL SYSTEMPress the PTT switch.When a channel is available, the TX/BUSY indicator will glow red. The radio isnow transmitting. While holding in the PTT switch, speak across the face of themicrophone in a clear and normal voice. For best transmission, hold the micro-phone about 1-1/2 to 2 inches away from your mouth. Release the PTT switchto receive.If all channels are busy, a continuous tone will be heard from the radio, and the“BUSYBUSYBUSYBUSYBUSY” notation will appear on the display when the PTT switch is pressed.Release the PTT switch.If the radio is out of range during the transmitting attempt, slow beeps will beheard followed by a continuous tone from the radio.Automatic Time-Out TimerIf the selected channel has been programmed for automatic time-out, you must limitthe length of each transmission. While transmitting, a beep will sound 10 secondsbefore time-out. Another beep will sound just before the deadline; the red “TX”indicator will disappear and transmission will cease soon thereafter. To resume trans-mitting, you must release the PTT switch and wait for the “penalty timer” to expire(if you press the PTT switch before this timer expires, the timer restarts, and youwill have to wait another “penalty” period)Key LockIn order to prevent accidental frequency change or inadvertent transmission, variousaspects of the transceiver’s keys may be locked out.To activate the Locking feature, press and hold in the [P1] key while turning theradio on. To disable the Locking feature, repeat this power-on procedure.BASIC OPERATION OF THE TRANSCEIVERVertex Standard Co., Ltd.FCC ID: K6610844740/IC ID: 511B-10844740

VX-2200 (LTR) SERIES OPERATING MANUAL 13ARTS (Auto Range Transpond System)This system is designed to inform you when you and another ARTS-equipped sta-tion are within communication range.During ARTS operation, when the radio receives an incoming ARTS signal, a shortbeep will sound, and “IN SVC” (“In Service”) notation will be displayed on thedisplay for 2 seconds. If you move out of range for more than two minutes, yourradio senses that no signal has been received; a short triple-beep will sound, and“OUT SVC” (“Out of Service”) notation will be displayed on the display for 2seconds. If you subsequently move back into communication range, as soon as theother station transmits, a short beep will sound and “IN SVC” notation will be dis-played again on the display for 2 seconds.DTMF Paging SystemThis system allows paging and selective calling, using DTMF tone sequences.When your radio is paged by a station bearing a tone sequence which matches yours,your radio’s squelch will open and the alert will sound. The three-digit code of thestation which paged you will be displayed on your radio’s display.ADVANCED OPERATIONVertex Standard Co., Ltd.FCC ID: K6610844740/IC ID: 511B-10844740
