Please see section 4.1.4 “USING THE CD-39 CHARGER CRADLE” for details. 3. ABOUT THIS RADIO 3.1 ABOUT THE VHF MARINE BAND WARNING: The radio frequencies used in the VHF marine band lie between 156 and 158 MHz with NOAA Weather stations available between 161 and 163 MHz. The marine VHF band provides communications over distances that are essentially “Line of sight” Actual transmission range depends much more on antenna type, gain and height than on the power output of the transmitter. On a fixed mount 25W radio transmission expected distances can be greater than 15 miles, for a portable 5W radio transmission the expected distance can be greater than 5 miles in “Line of sight.” The user of a Marine VHF radio is subject to severe fines if the radio is used on land. The reasoning for this is you may be near an inland waterway, or propagation anomalies may cause your transmission to be heard in a waterway. If this occurs, depending upon the marine VHF channel on which you are transmitting, you could interfere with a search and rescue case, or contribute to a collision between passing ships. For VHF Marine channel assignments refer to page ?? section 11. Vertex Standard Co.,Ltd. FCC ID:K6630323X30 IC ID:511B-30323X30 Operating Manual 4. GETTING STARTED If the radio has never been used, or its charge is depleted, it may be charged by connecting the CD-39 Charger Cradle with the NC-88 battery charger, as shown in the illustration. If 12V DC power is available, the optional E-DC-19A DC Cable with 12 V Cigarette Lighter Plug or the optional E-DC-6 DC Cable may be used for charging the battery. The NC-88, E-DC-19A and E-DC-6 will charge a completely discharged FNB-V99LI battery pack in about 8 hours. 4.1 BATTERIES AND CHARGERS The FNB-V99LI is a high performance LI-ion battery providing high capacity in a compact package. CAUTION To avoid risk of explosion and injury, FNB-V99LI battery pack should only be removed, charged or recharged in non-hazardous environments. 4.1.1 BATTERY SAFETY Battery packs for your transceiver contain LI-ion batteries. This type of battery stores a charge powerful enough to be dangerous if misused or abused, especially when removed from the transceiver. Please observe the following precautions: DO NOT SHORT BATTERY PACK TERMINALS: Shorting the terminals that power the transceiver can cause sparks, severe overheating, burns, and battery cell damage. If the short is of sufficient duration, it is possible to melt battery components. Do not place a loose battery pack on or near metal surfaces or objects such as paper clips, keys, tools, etc. When the battery pack is installed on the transceiver, the terminals that transfer current to the transceiver are not exposed. The terminals that are exposed on the battery pack when it is mounted on the transceiver are charging terminals only and do not constitute a hazard. DO NOT INCINERATE: Do not dispose of any battery in a fire or incinerator. The heat of fire may cause battery cells to explode and/or release dangerous gases. Battery Maintenance For safe and proper battery use, please observe the following: Battery packs should be charged only in non-hazardous environments; Use only STANDARD HORIZON-approved batteries; Use only a STANDARD HORIZON, (a Marine Division of VERTEX STANDARD) approved charger. The use of any other charger may cause permanent damage to the battery. Follow charging instructions provided with the chargers. Keep the battery contacts clean. Vertex Standard Co.,Ltd. FCC ID:K6630323X30 IC ID:511B-30323X30 Operating Manual Battery Storage Store the batteries in a cool place to maximize storage life. Since batteries are subject to self-discharge, avoid high storage temperatures that cause large self-discharge rates. After extended storage, a full recharge is recommended. Battery Recycling DO NOT PLACE USED BATTERIES IN YOUR REGULAR TRASH! LI-ION BATTERIES MUST BE COLLECTED, RECYCLED OR DISPOSED OF IN AN ENVIRONMENTALLY SOUND MANNER. The incineration, land filling or mixing of nickel-cadmium batteries with the municipal solid waste stream is PROHIBITED BY LAW in most areas. Return batteries to an approved LI-ion battery recycler. This may be where you purchased the battery. Contact your local waste management officials for other information regarding the environmentally sound collection, recycling and disposal of LI-ion batteries. 4.1.2 BATTERY CHARGING If the radio has never been used, or its charge is depleted, it may be charged by connecting the CD-39 Charger Cradle with the NC-88 battery charger, as shown in the illustration. If 12V DC power is available, the optional E-DC-19A DC Cable with 12 V Cigarette Lighter Plug or the optional E-DC-6 DC Cable may be used for charging the battery. The NC-88, E-DC-19A and E-DC-6 will charge a completely discharged FNB-V99LI battery pack in about 8 hours. 4.1.3 BATTERY INSTALLATION/REMOVAL 1. Turn the transceiver off. 2.

The transceiver will revert to the channel you were using prior to switching to the weather channel mode. 6.7.1 NOAA WEATHER ALERT In the event of extreme weather disturbances such as storms and hurricanes, NOAA (National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration) sends a “weather alert” consisting of a 1050 Hz tone, followed by weather reports on the weather channels. The transceiver is capable of receiving this alert if the following is performed: 1. Program your area’s weather channels into the transceiver’s scan memory. Follow the same procedure as for regular channels. 2. Press the [SCAN(DW)] key to start the scan. 3. The memorized weather channels are scanned along with the regular memorized channels. Scanning will not stop on the (continuous) weather broadcast channels unless the weather alert tone is received. 4. When an alert is received on a weather channel, scanning stops and the transceiver emits a beeping tone that will stay on for 5 minutes. 5. Press the [WX] key to listen to the Weather Alert. 6.7.2 NOAA WEATHER ALERT TESTING In the event of a major storm or other appreciable weather condition requiring vessels at sea (or other bodies of water) to be notified, the NOAA (National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration) broadcasts a 1050 Hz tone that some VHF radios, including your HX750S, can 13 Vertex Standard Co.,Ltd. FCC ID:K6630323X30 IC ID:511B-30323X30 Operating Manual detect for “Weather Alarm” purposes (refer to section 6.7.1 “NOAA WEATHER ALERT” for a discussion of how to use this feature). The 1050 Hz tone, when detected, will produce a loud beep in the speaker of the HX750S, to signal that a Weather Alert Broadcast is being received. In order to test this system, NOAA broadcasts the 1050 Hz tone every Wednesday sometime between 11 AM and 1 PM local time. You may use this opportunity to test your HX750S periodically to confirm that the Weather Alert feature is working, or for training crew members on how to configure the HX750S to receive the NOAA Weather Alerts. 6.8 PRESET CHANNELS (0 ~ 9): INSTANT ACCESS Ten user assigned channels can be programmed for instant access. Pressing the [PRESET] key activates the user assigned channel bank. If the [PRESET] key is pressed and no channels have been assigned, an alert beep will be emitted twice from the speaker. Programming 1. Hold down the [PRESET] key, and press the [T] or [S] key (repeatedly, if necessary) until the desired channel number is displayed. 2. With the desired channel number displayed, release the [PRESET] key. The Preset Channel number “0” will appear at the right of the channel number on the display. 3. Repeat steps 1 and 2 to program the desired channels into Preset Channels “1” ~ “9.” 4. To delete a Preset Channel, hold down the [PRESET] key and press the [T] or [S] key until the Preset Channel number to be deleted is displayed, then release the [PRESET] key. Operation Pressing the [PRESET] key will toggle between Preset Channels “0” through “9” and the last selected “regular” channel. 6.9 MEMOY SCAN The HX750S can be programmed to scan channels from a minimum of 2 channels up to all channels in the marine band. If an incoming signal is detected on one of the channels during scan, the radio will pause on that channel, allowing you to listen to the incoming transmission. 1. Select the desired channel to be included in the scan memory using the [T] or [S] key. 2. Press the [MEM] key to store the channel into the transceiver’s scan memory. “MEM” will be displayed on the LCD. 3. Repeat steps 1 and 2 for all the channels to be scanned. 4. To delete a channel from the transceiver’s scan memory, select the memorized channel, then press the [MEM] key until “MEM” is removed from the display. 14 Vertex Standard Co.,Ltd. FCC ID:K6630323X30 IC ID:511B-30323X30 Operating Manual 5. All channels programmed remain in the transceiver’s scan memory even if the power is turned off. See section 11 “RESETTING THE TRANSCEIVER’S MICROPROCESSOR” for clear all channels from the transceivers scan memory. 6. Adjust the SQL level until background noise is eliminated by pressing the [SQL] key followed by the [T] / [S] key. 7. To start scanning, press the [SCAN(DW)] key. The scan proceeds from the lowest to the highest programmed channel and stops scanning when a transmission is received. Scanning will resume when the incoming signal disappears at the end of the transmission. A blinking “SCN” icon will appears at the left bottom of the display during scanning. 8. To stop the scan, press the [SCAN(DW)] key. 6.10 PRIORITY SCAN The Priority Scanning feature allows the radio to Memory Scan while also keeping watch on a particularly important “Priority Channel”. The following channels can be set as the Priority Channel: 16, 09, and Preset Channels described previously. 1. To set the priority channel, hold down the [16/9] key and press the [MEM] key. The channel will change from “16” to “09” to Preset Channels “0” through “9” with each press of the [MEM] key. When the [16/9] key is released the displayed channel will be set as the Priority Channel (the “P” icon will appear at the left side of the channel number). 2. For Priority Scanning, press the [SCAN(DW)] key to activates the Memory Scanning, then hold down the [SCAN(DW)] key while activating the Memory Scan. Scanning will proceed between the memorized channels and the Priority Channel. The Priority Channel will be scanned after each programmed channel. 3. As an example of priority scanning, let us say that marine channels “06”, “07”, and “08” are memorized in the transceiver’s scan memory. Priority scanning will proceed in the following sequence: [CH06] Æ [Priority Channel] Æ [CH07] Æ [Priority Channel] Æ [CH08] Æ [Priority Channel] Æ [CH06] Æ [Priority Channel] ………… 4. Even when the transceiver stops and listens to the signal of a programmed channel, the transceiver will shift to a “dual watch” mode between this channel and the priority channel. Therefore, your priority watching of the designated channel is not compromised when the scanner has paused on an active channel. 5. Hold down the [SCAN(DW)] key to change the Priority Scan to Memory Scan, and then press the [SCAN(DW)] key to stop the scan and return to normal operation. 6.11 DUAL WATCH 15 Vertex Standard Co.,Ltd. FCC ID:K6630323X30 IC ID:511B-30323X30 Operating Manual The Dual Watch feature allows the radio watch the particularly important “Priority Channel” (determined section “6.10 PRIORITY SCAN”) while receiving the current channel. 1.

To return to the Dual Watch operation, repeat the “Setting Up Triple Watch feature”, selecting “d-” in step 5. 6.13 EMERGENCY (CHANNEL 16 USE) Channel 16 is known as the Hail and Distress Channel. An emergency may be defined as a threat to life or property. In such instances, be sure the transceiver is on and set to CHANNEL 16. Then use the following procedure: 1. Press the microphone push-to-talk switch and say “Mayday, Mayday, Mayday. This is _____, _____, _____” (your vessel’s name). 2. Then repeat once: “Mayday, _____” (your vessel’s name). 3. Now report your position in latitude/longitude, or by giving a true or magnetic bearing (state which) to a well-known landmark such as a navigation aid or geographic feature such as an island or harbor entry. 4. Explain the nature of your distress (sinking, collision, aground, fire, heart attack, life-threatening injury, etc.). 5. State the kind of assistance your desire (pumps, medical aid, etc.). 6. Report the number of persons aboard and condition of any injured. 7. Estimate the present seaworthiness and condition of your vessel. 8. Give your vessel’s description: length, design (power or sail), color and other distinguishing marks. The total transmission should not exceed 1 minute. 9. End the message by saying “OVER” Release the microphone button and listen. 10. If there is no answer, repeat the above procedure. If there is still no response, try another channel. 6.14 CALLING ANOTHER VESSEL (CHANNEL 16 OR 9) Channel 16 may be used for initial contact (hailing) with another vessel. However, its most important use is for emergency messages. This channel must be monitored at all times except when actually using another channel. It is monitored by the U.S. and Canadian Coast Guards and by other vessels. Use of channel 16 for hailing must be limited to initial contact only. Calling should not exceed 30 seconds, but may be repeated 3 times at 2-minute intervals. In areas of heavy radio traffic, congestion on channel 16 resulting from its use as a hailing channel can be reduced significantly in U.S. waters by using Channel 9 as the initial contact (hailing) channel for non-emergency communications. Here, also, calling time should not exceed 30 seconds but may be repeated 3 times at 2-minute intervals. 17 Vertex Standard Co.,Ltd. FCC ID:K6630323X30 IC ID:511B-30323X30 Operating Manual Prior to making contact with another vessel, refer to the channel charts in this manual, and select an appropriate channel for communications after initial contact. For example, Channels 68 and 69 of the U.S. VHF Charts are some of the channels available to non-commercial (recreational) boaters. Monitor your desired channel in advance to make sure you will not be interrupting other traffic, and then go back to either channel 16 or 9 for your initial contact. When the hailing channel (16 or 9) is clear, state the name of the other vessel you wish to call and then “this is” followed by the name of your vessel and your Station License (Call Sign). When the other vessel returns your call, immediately request another channel by saying “go to”, the number of the other channel, and “over.” Then switch to the new channel. When the new channel is not busy, call the other vessel. After a transmission, say “over”, and release the microphone’s push-to-talk (PTT) switch. When all communication with the other vessel is completed, end the last transmission by stating your Call Sign and the word “out”. Note that it is not necessary to state your Call Sign with each transmission, only at the beginning and end of the contact. Remember to return to Channel 16 when not using another channel. Some radios automatically monitor Channel 16 even when set to other channels or when scanning. 6.15 OPERATING ON CHANNELS 13 AND 67 Channel 13 is used at docks and bridges and by vessels maneuvering in port. Messages on this channel must concern navigation only, such as meeting and passing in restricted waters. Channel 67 is used for navigational traffic between vessels. By regulation, power is normally limited to 1 Watt on these channels. Your radio is programmed to automatically reduce power to this limit on these channels. However, in certain situations it may be necessary to temporarily use a higher power. See page ?? ([H/L] key) for means to temporarily override the low-power limit on these two channels. 6.15 OPERATING ON CHANNEL 13 Channel 13 is used at docks, bridges and for maneuvering in port. Messages on this channel must concern navigation only, such as meeting and passing in restricted waters. In emergencies and when approaching blind river bends, High power is allowed. Pressing the [H/L(KEY)] key will change the power output from Low Power (1 Watt) to Medium (2.5 Watts), High (5 Watts), or Normal (6 Watts) power will be selected. When you select to this channel again, the transceiver will revert to Low power. 6.16 OPERATING ON CHANNEL 67 When channel 67 is used for navigational bridge-to-bridge traffic between ships, Normal, High or 18 Vertex Standard Co.,Ltd. FCC ID:K6630323X30 IC ID:511B-30323X30 Operating Manual Medium power may be used temporarily (in the USA band) by pressing the [H/L(KEY)] key. When you select to this channel again, the transceiver will revert to low power. 6.17 ENABLING S.O.S STROBE OPERATION The S.O.S. STROBE feature utilizes the high-intensity strobe LED on the front of the HX750S as a visual distress beacon. When enabled, the LED blinks the internationally-recognized Morse Code “S.O.S.” message (...---...) at a rate of 5 words per minute. This can be very useful in summoning help from rescuers who may not be able to communicate with you via radio. 1. Hold down the [MEM] key while turning the radio on to activate the emergency S.O.S. Strobe. Once the radio comes on, the BUSY/TX LED will flash the Morse Code S.O.S. message repeatedly. 2. The S.O.S. strobe function is interrupted when a signal is received or if the squelch control is turned so audio is heard from the speaker and during transmission. 3. To disable the S.O.S. strobe function, turn the radio off and back on again. 7. MENU (“SET”) MODE The HX750S’s Menu Mode allows a number of the HX750S operating parameters to be custom-configured for your operating requirements. The Menu Mode is easy to activate and set, using the following procedure: 1. Turn the transceiver off. 2. Hold down the [SQL] key, and then turn on the transceiver while still holding down the [SQL] key. 3. The “SEt” will appear on the display, indicating that the Menu (“Set”) Mode has been activated. 4.

MAINTENANCE 8.1 GENERAL The inherent quality of the solid-state components in STANDARD HORIZON radios will provide many years of continuous use. Take the following precautions to prevent damage to the radio. To prevent corrosion of electrical contacts and keep the water resistance, keep the microphone connected or the jack covered at all times. Never key the transmitter unless an antenna or suitable dummy load is connected to the antenna receptacle. Ensure that the input voltage does not exceed the value specified in your Owner’s Manual. Use only STANDARD HORIZON-approved accessories and replacement parts. 8.2 REPLACEMENT PARTS Occasionally an owner needs a replacement parts.

INSTALLATIONS OF OPTION 9.1 FBA-38 BATTERY CASE FBA-38 is a battery case that holds five LR03 alkaline batteries and is used with the HX750S transceiver. 1. Slide the five LR03 alkaline batteries into the FBA-38 with the Negative (–) side of the batteries touching the spring connections inside the FBA-38. 2. Insert the FBA-38 into the battery nest on the bottom of the transceiver, and then turn the Battery Pack Lock to the “LOCK” position by a coin. 10. VHF MARINE CHANNEL ASSIGNMENTS Tables on the following pages list the VHF Marine Channel assignments for U.S.A. and International use. Below are listed some data about the charts. 1. VTS. Where indicated, these channels are part of the U.S. Coast Guard’s Vessel Traffic System. 2. Alpha channel numbers, that is, channel numbers followed by the letter A (such as Channel 07A) are simplex channels on the U.S.A. or Canadian channel assignments whose counterparts in the International assignments are duplex channels. International channels do not use “alpha” numbers. If you call the Coast Guard on Channel 16, they will sometimes ask you to “go to channel 22 Alpha.” This is a channel assigned to U.S.A, and Canadian Coast Guards for handling distress and other calls. If your radio is set for International operation you will go to Channel 22 instead of 22A, and will not be able to communicate with the Coast Guard. To use Channel 22A, your radio must be set for USA or Canada operation, using the USA/CAN/INTL channel selection procedure described on page ?? of this manual. Channel 22 (without an “A” is an International duplex channel for port operations. The HX750S displays an “A” adjacent to 23 Vertex Standard Co.,Ltd. FCC ID:K6630323X30 IC ID:511B-30323X30 Operating Manual the channel number on all “Alpha” channels, unlike some other models that may not indicate the “A” even though they may be set to the correct frequency. 3. Bridge-to-Bridge channels (for example, Channel 13) are for use by bridge operators on inter-coastal waterways and rivers. It is also used by marine vessels in the vicinity of these bridges for navigation and for communicating with the bridge operators. Note that a limit of 1 Watt is specified for these channels. 4. The S/D column on the chart indicates either S (simplex) or D (duplex). Simplex means transmitting and receiving on the same frequency. Only one party at a time can talk, unlike a telephone. Be sure to say “over” and release your microphone push-to-talk switch at the end of each transmission. Duplex operation involves the use of one frequency for transmitting and a separate frequency for receiving. On channels specified as duplex on the charts, correct mode of operation is established automatically by your radio when you select a channel; you cannot change the mode. And you still must release the push-to-talk switch after each transmission in order to listen to the radio. 5. Channels normally used by recreational boaters are those that include the term “non-commercial” in the Channel Use column of the chart. Some of these are shared with other users and some are used only in certain geographic regions. 6. Marine vessels equipped with VHF radios are required to monitor Channel 16.
