VX-1210
OPERATING MANUAL
Front Panel Control and Switches
(1) POWER Switch
Turn this knob clockwise (straight down) to turn the radio on. Counterclockwise
rotation will turn the radio off.
(2) SEL Knob
This is 20-position detended rotary switch selects the memory channels or tunes
the operating frequency.
(3) VOL Knob
This control adjusts the audio volume level. Clockwise rotation increases the
volume level.
(4) CLAR Knob
This control allows you to offset the receiving frequency from that originally
displayed (and used for transmission) frequency by up to 200 Hz in 10 Hz/step
(SSB, CW, and DATA mode), or up to 400 Hz in 20 Hz step (AM mode).
(5) GND Terminal
If an earth ground connection point is available at the operating site, this terminal
may be connected to it to provide improved performance and safety.
(6) ANT Jack
This jack accepts the 50Ω antenna. If an optional antenna tuner is installed, the
optional whip antenna can be connecting to this connector directly. Use only type
PL-259 (type M) plug.
(7) SQL Switch
Turn this switch to “upper” position to keep the receiver quiet until a signal is
received. Turn this switch to “lower” position to “open” the noise squelch manually,
allowing you to listen for very weak signals.
This switch function can be customized, via programming by your dealer. See page
XX for details regarding the available feature.
(8) LAMP Switch
Turn this switch to “upper” position to illuminate the LCD lamp continuously. To
disable the LCD lamp, turn this switch to “lower” position.
This switch function can be customized, via programming by your dealer. See page
XX for details regarding the available feature.
(9) LCD (Liquid Crystal Display)
Display the current operating channel.
(10) LED Indicator
This LED indicates the current status of the transceiver.
Glows Green: Busy Channel (or Squelch off)
Glows Yellow: Transmission in progress
Blinking Yellow:
Blinking Red: Battery voltage is nearing depletion. Prepare to replace the battery.
Glows Red: Battery voltage is critically low. Replace the battery immediately.

OPERATING MANUAL
Rear Panel Connectors
(1) CHG Terminal
This 4-pin coaxial jack allows connection to the optional CD-17 Rapid Charger or
PA-25 AC adapter.
(2) Battery Compartment
This compartment allows installation of the FNB-66LI Lithium-Ion Battery Pack.
Before You Begin
Battery Pack Installation and Removal
To install the Battery Pack, insert the Battery Pack into the battery compartment on
the bottom of the radio, then secure the Battery Pack using the screws on the Battery
Pack.
To remove the Battery Pack, turn the radio off and remove any protective cases.
Unscrew the screws on the Battery Pack, then slide out the Battery Pack from the
radio.
(!) Do not attempt to open the Rechargeable Battery Pack, as personal injury or
damage to pack could occur if a cell or cells become accidentally short-circuited.
Battery Charging
It is necessary to fully charge the Battery Pack before its first use.
1. Install the Battery Pack into the transceiver. Ensure that the transceiver is
switched off.
2. Plug the CD-17 Charger into the AC line outlet.
3. Insert the cable plug from the CD-17 Charger into the CHG terminal on the bottom
of the transceiver. A fully discharged pack will be charged completely in 5 hours.
4. Unplug the cable from the CHG terminal, then disconnect the CD-17 Charger from
the AC line outlet.
(!) Do not connect an improper Charger into the CHG terminal.
Operation
Preliminary Steps
(1) Install a charged Battery Pack onto the transceiver, as described previously.
(2) Connect the MH-50A7A Speaker/Microphone onto the transceiver; align the
connector of the MH-50A7A to the connector on the left side of the transceiver
body, then secure the connector pin using the screws supplied with the MH-50A7A
Speaker/Microphone.
(3) If you use this transceiver with the optional YA-30 antenna kit, setup the YA-30
antenna kit then connect the coaxial plug from the YA-30 onto the ANT jack of the
transceiver.
(4) If you use this transceiver with the optional YHA-61 whip antenna, connect the
YHA-61 whip antenna onto the ANT jack of the transceiver then connect the good
earth ground onto the GND terminal of the transceiver using heavy braided cable.
Whip Antenna Setup
(1) Connect the optional YHA-61 whip antenna and good ground earth onto the
transceiver, as described previously.
(2) Turn the transceiver on by rotating the POWER switch clockwise (set to straight
VX-1210

down) while press and holding the CHANNEL selector knob. Appear the “TU ADJ”
in the display for three seconds, then return to the frequency display.
(3) Press and hold the CHANNEL selector knob for 1/2 second to initiate antenna
tuning.
(4) Repeat step (3) on the all-operating channels.
(5) Turn the transceiver off to save the new setting.
Operation Quick Start
(1) Turn the transceiver on by rotating the POWER switch clockwise.
(2) Rotate the SEL knob to select the desired Memory Channel.
(3) Rotate the VOL knob to set the comfortable volume level.
(4) Turn the SQL switch (ANT side Toggle switch) to “upper” position to keep the
receiver quiet until a signal is received.
(5) To transmit, press and hold the microphone’s PTT switch, and speak into the
microphone in a normal voice level. To return to the receive mode, release the PTT
switch.
(6) If you listen a very weak signals, turn SQL switch to “lower” position to “open” the
noise squelch manually.
(7) If the station you are receiving should start to drift, rotate the CLAR knob to follow
the drifting signal without requiring you to move your transmit frequency.
(8) In the night time operation, turn the LAMP switch (LCD side Toggle switch) to
“upper” position to illuminate the LCD display.
FUNCTION Switch Functions
The VX-1210’s Function (Toggle) switches are determined to LAMP on/off (LCD side),
HI/LOW switch (Center), and SQL off (ANT side) on default. Therefore, these switches
functions can be customized, via programming by your Vertex Standard dealer. The
possible switch programming features are illustrated below, and their functions are
explained below. For future reference, check the box next to each function that has
