4. Rotate the tuning control or press the UP/DN switches on the
microphone until the desired tuning step size appears in the
display.
5. To complete the programming of the step size you can press any
key on the front panel except the
PWR
key, or simply wait 10
seconds and the microphone will automatically return to the normal
frequency display.
5-3 TRANSMITTER OPERATION
Caution
1. Ensure that an antenna with a low standing wave ration (SWR)
is attached to the antenna connector before attempting to
transmit failure to provide proper termination may result in
damage to the final amplifier section.
2. Always check to ensure the frequency is clear before
transmitting.
Note
The use LOW power is recommended whenever possible, to
avoid interference with other stations.
5-3-1 Transmit Basics
1. Select the desired operation frequency using any of the methods
previously discussed.
2. Press the LOW/DIM key to select the desired transmit output.
3. Check the frequency to see if it is occupied before you transmit.
4. Press the PTT switch. The TX indicator will light, and the RF
meter will deflect to the right.
If you have selected the LOW power position, the indicator will
appear in the display and the RF meter will only deflect full scale.
5. Speak into the microphone. The recommended distance to the
microphone is 5 cm (2 inches).
A "OFF" will appear on the display if TX frequency is out of the
range.
5-3-2 Time-out-Timer(TOT)
The TOT can limit the continuous transmission time to the TOT
time(the default time is 10 minutes).
1. Press the F key for longer than 1 second,then press the LOW/DIM
key. The TOT indicator will light.Rotate the tuning control or press
the UP/DN switches on the microphone to select the TOT
time(1/3/5/10/15/30 minutes).
To cancel the TOT setting, repeat the same procedure.
2. When the time of time-out timer is out, the transceiver will disable
the transmitter. To transmit again, release the PTT switch and
press it again.
