4) There are 5 holes on the lock material.Set unit at adequate angle and at corresponding position at guide hole. Then turn lock knob clockwise slightly.
5) The unit can be set with +/-15 degrees to +/- 30 degrees with the lock material. Set unit desirable angle and fix the lock screw.

  • Important note*
    A) Set the unit with care for the lock material position.
    B) Use only the supplied screws and parts.
    C) It is important to install at suitable position to maintain high performance for long period of time.

Following positions are not suitable so avoid these positions and install in open position as much as possible.

*Place under direct sunlight or direct heat from heater.
*Place away from water ingress and dust, high magnetic fields or vibration.
*Place under unventilated enclosures or areas of heat accumulation.
*Place of direct mechanical shock or vibration.

3.2. Installation for rubber foot and stand material.
It is required to install rubber foot and stand materials when unit is used as a fixed station away from a vehicle.

3.3. Connection of power supply.
Connect DC power cable plug into socket on rear panel.

1) Turn on power switch only when all connections are made.
2) Red cable for +12volts to be connected to power supply for car radio or cigar lighter which must have 5A capacity.
3) Black cable for -12volts to be connected to vehicle ground connection.
4) When you intend to connect to the vehicle fuse box select a terminal that has more than 5A capacity and connect to units red cable(+12volts in).
5) The unit has reverse power protection, in the event of reversed connection the inline fuse in the power cable will blow. Replace the fuse with a 5 A capacity fuse after correcting the connection.
6) The unit has a memory back-up function, maintaining memory for approximately 1 week without a power connection.
7)

3.4. Antenna cable connection.
1)The unit is designed for a BNC connection only.
2) Refer to right figure. Insert antenna plug into antenna connection on rear panel and rotate clockwise approximately 180 degrees until locked.
Once locked the plug should not be able to be pulled from its connector.
3) Keep power off untill all connections are made.
4) When you intend to remove the antenna plug, rotate counterclockwise to release the lock.

3.5. External speaker connection.
When attempting to use an external speaker for clearer sound referring to right figure, connect speaker plug to the speaker jack socket on the rear panel.
You should hear only sounds from the external speaker as the internal speakers are now disconnected so no sound will be heard from the unit.
Use a speaker with 8 or 4 ohm impedance and adjust volume output to 0.5 watt for comfortable listening.

5.1. Operating procedure
(for Transmission.)

1) Turn VOL (9) knob clockwise for power on and set adequate sound.
Test sound of beeps should be heard and RX (4) and Scan stop level Indicator (14) light then lights in either channel mode or memory channel mode for receive condition.

2) Set desirable channel number by 10 key (8). Press PTT (21) switch and speak into the microphone. There are a slight time delays to start the transmission from pushing PTT switch (21) but this is a normal phenomenon.
Channel number scolls when in transmission mode. Refer to channel assignment section.

(For receiving).
1) Sound comes out on assigned channel number on receiving mode.
During scanning if the unit receives any incoming signal, the scan stops at the channel for 10 seconds and if incoming signal stops, scanning starts again. For Transmission just press PTT (21) switch.
Note: The unit is of simplex operation, so during receiving, transmissions wont be heard by the other party.

5.2. Channel assignment.

Press mode switch (15), memory channel indicator (17) extinguishes ann left 2 digits become “0-0” then press 10 key as desirable channel number.

1…………….00-01
10……………00-10
15……………00-15
3…………….00-03
21……………00-20
40……………00-20

Note: In case of channel 20 and up (20 ch for UK), displays as 20 when channel is selected by UP/Down switch, channel is displayed sequentially.

5.3. Memory assignment (renew).

Press mode switch (15) and memory channel indicator (17) lights, last two digits become 01-10. Then press 10 key.

Desirable memory n0. Display. Desirable channel n0. Memorised display.

Memory can be made 1 to 10 even disordered.

5.5. Memory Recall.

To be made in memory mode.

Desirable recall n0. Display.
1—————— 01-01
4—————— 04-20
10—————– 10-15

Memory recall can be made even when memory disordered.
When using UP/Down switch (12) (23) or (16) (22) as

01-01
02-?? (set channel number). UP^
03-??
04-20


  • 10-15
    09-??
    08-?? Down.v

  • 01-01

Note: When holding either Up/Down key for more than 1 second, channel and memory are displayed as scrolling.

5.5. Squelch adjustment.

Squelch function is to eliminate background noise when unit is in stand-by.
If squelch is correctly adjusted then background noise such as static or weak stations cannot be heard.
With squelch (10) turned fully counter clockwise static or other background noise will be heard.
Adjust the control turning clockwise until the noise stops, adjuting as necessary to silence the receiver.
