The radio is not intended for use by general population in an uncontrolled environment. It is only for
occupational use and only applied to work-related conditions.The radio must be only used by users, who
are fully aware of the hazards of the exposure and who are able to exercise control over their RF
exposure to qualify for the higher exposure limits.
Alert Icons
Caution: indicates situations that could cause damage to your product or bodily injury.
Note: indicates tips that can help you make better use of your product.

Term Explanation
Key Operation
z Short press: to press a key and release it quickly.
z Long press: to press a key and remain holding it down for a predefined period (2 seconds by default).
Hold down: to press a key and remain holding it down.
Duplexer
Duplexer is a device that allows bi-directional communication. Its role is to isolate the TX signal from the
RX signal to ensure that the transmitter and receiver can work normally. It consists of two groups of
band-stop filters with different frequencies, to prevent it from transmitting the signals to the receiver.
Feed Line
Feed Line is the cable or transmission line that connects the antenna with the radio transmitter or
receiver.
Voltage Standing Wave Ratio (VSWR)
Voltage Standing Wave Ratio (VSWR) is a value that measures how well a load is impedance-matched
to a source.
Squelch
Squelch is a circuit function that acts to suppress the audio output of a receiver in the absence of a
sufficiently strong desired input signal.

RF Radiation Information
RF Radiation Profile
Radio Frequency (RF) is a frequency of electromagnetic radiation in the range at which radio signals are
transmitted. RF technology is widely used in communication, medicine, food processing and other fields.
It may generate radiation during use.
RF Radiation Safety
In order to ensure user health, experts from relevant industries including science, engineering, medicine
and health work with international organizations to develop standards for safe exposure to RF radiation.
These standards consist of:
z United States Federal Communications Commission, Code of Federal Regulations; 47CFR part 2
sub-part J;
z American National Standards Institute (ANSI)/Institute of Electrical and Electronic Enginee rs (IEEE)
C95. 1-1992;
z Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE) C95.1-1999;
z International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP) 1998.
Operational Instructions and Training Guidelines
To ensure optimal performance and compliance with the occupational/controlled environment RF energy
exposure limits in the above standards and guidelines, users should transmit no more than 50% of the
time and always adhere to the following procedures when in PTT mode and transmit should no more
than 100% of time when in repeater mode.
FCC Regulations
Federal Communication Commission (FCC) requires that all radio communication products should meet
the requirements set forth in the above standards before they can be marketed in the U.S, and the
manufacturer shall post a RF label on the product to inform users of operational instructions, so as to
enhance their occupational health against exposure to RF energy.
Operational Instructions and Training Guidelines
To ensure the optimal performance and the compliance with occupational/controlled environment RF
radiance limits in the above standards, please adhere to the following requirements:
z When you are carrying this product on your back, ensure the Gain of the antenna is not more than
3.5dBi, and the output power is within 5W.
z When you are installing the repeater antenna outside, set up the antenna according to the supplier’s
requirements with its Gain within 6.5dBi and keep it at least 0.5 meters away from human body.
EU Regulatory Conformance
As certified by the qualified laboratory, the product is in compliance with the essential requirements and
other relevant provisions of the Directive 1999/5/EC. Please note that the above information is applicable
to EU countries only.
Mobile repeater station
When automatically retransmit-ting messages originated by or destined for hand-carried units, each
mobile sta-tion shall activate the mobile trans-mitter only with a continuous access signal, the absence of
which will de-ac-tivate the mobile transmitter. The con-tinuous access signal is not required when the
mobile unit is equipped with a switch that activates the automatic mode of the mobile unit and an
auto-matic time-delay device that de-acti-vates the transmitter after any unin-terrupted transmission
period in excess of 3 minutes. For the purposes of this rule section the continuous access sig-nal can be
achieved by use of digital or analog methods.
