IMPORTANT

READ THIS INSTRUCTION MANUAL CAREFULLY before attempting to operate the

transceiver.

SAVE THIS INSTRUCTION MANUAL. This

manual contains important safety and operating instructions for the IC-F7000.

EXPLICIT DEFINITIONS

R WARNING RF EXPOSURE! This device

emits Radio Frequency (RF) energy. Extreme caution should be observed when operating this device. If you have any questions regarding RF exposure and safety standards please refer to the Federal Communications Commission Office of Engineering and Technology’s report on Evaluating Compliance with FCC Guidelines for Human Radio Frequency Electromagnetic Fields (OET Bulletin 65).

R WARNING HIGH VOLTAGE! NEVER at-

tach an antenna or internal antenna connector during transmission. This may result in an electrical shock or burn.

R NEVER apply AC to the [DC13.8V] jack on the

transceiver front panel. This could cause a ﬁre or damage the transceiver.

R NEVER apply more than 16 V DC, such as a 24 V

battery, to the [DC13.8V] jack on the transceiver front panel. This could cause a fire or damage the transceiver.

R NEVERlet metal, wire or other objects touch any

internal part or connectors on the front panel of the transceiver. This may result in an electric shock.

R NEVER expose the transceiver to rain, snow or

any liquids.

AVOID using or placing the transceiver in areas with

temperatures below –10°C (+14°F) or above +60°C (+140°F). Be aware that temperatures on a vehicle’s dashboard can exceed 80°C (+176°F), resulting in permanent damage to the transceiver if left there for extended periods.

AVOID placing the transceiver in excessively dusty en-

vironments or in direct sunlight.

AVOID placing the transceiver against walls or putting

anything on top of the transceiver. This will obstruct heat dissipation.

Place unit in a secure place to avoid inadvertent use by children.

During mobile operation, DO NOT operate the trans-

ceiver without running the vehicle’s engine. When the transceiver’s power is ON and your vehicle’s engine is OFF, the vehicle’s battery will soon become exhausted.

Make sure the transceiver power is OFF before starting the vehicle. This will avoid possible damage to the transceiver by ignition voltage spikes.

BE CAREFUL! The rear panel will become hot when

operating the transceiver continuously for long periods.

USE Icom microphones only (supplied or optional).

Other manufacturer’s microphones have different pin assignments, and connection to the IC-F7000 may damage the transceiver.

DO NOT use chemical agents such as benzine or al-

cohol when cleaning, as they can damage the transceiver surface.

PRECAUTION

WORD DEFINITION

WARNING

Personal injury, ﬁre hazard or electric shock may occur.

CAUTION Equipment damage may occur.

NOTE

If disregarded, inconvenience only. No risk or personal injury, fire or electric shock.

■ Functions for receive

RF gain setting

The receiver gain can be reduced with the RF gain setting. This may help to remove undesired weak signals while monitoring strong signals.

Usually, the AGC function reduces the RF gain according to the receive signal strength and these weak signals are removed. However, during no signal reception, these weak signals may not be heard.

In such cases, the RF gain may be useful for setting a minimum level at which to hear signals.

Squelch function

The squelch function detects signals with voice components and squelches (mutes) unwanted signals such as unmodulated beat signals. This provides quiet stand-by.

When you need to receive weak signals, the squelch should be turned OFF.

➥ Push [MUTE] several times to select a mute type.

Available types are voice mute, signal level mute (level 1—100), call mute or mute OFF.

•When select the mute type, transceiver emits different

conﬁrmation beep for each type.

Page 59

CONNECTION AND INSTALLATION

■ Ground connection

The transceiver and antenna tuner MUST have an adequate RF ground connection. Otherwise, the overall efﬁciency of the transceiver and antenna tuner installation will be reduced. Electrolysis, electrical shocks and interference from other equipment could also occur.

For best results, use 50 or 75 mm (2 or 3 inches) wide copper strap and make the connection as short as possible. Ground the transceiver and antenna tuner to one ground point, otherwise the voltage difference (in RF level) between 2 ground points may cause electrolysis.

R WARNING— When grounding to a metal hull

Use Zinc anodes to protect the hull from electrolysis.

Ask your technical dealer, installer or refer to a technical book, etc., for RF grounding details.

Ground system example

Best ground points

• External ground plate

• Copper screen

• Copper foil

Un-usable ground points

(these connections may cause an explosion or electrical

shock)

• Gas or electrical pipe

• Fuel tank or oil-catch pan

■ Power source

The transceiver requires a regulated DC power of

13.8 V and at least 30 A. There are 2 ways to supply power:

•Direct connection to a 12 V battery in your vehicle through the supplied DC power cable.

•Use PS-60

DC POWER SUPPLY

to connect to an AC

outlet.

CATION: The supplied DC power cable MUST be

used to provide power to the transceiver. AVOID exceeding the 3 m (10 ft.) length of the DC power cable. When it is necessary to make a run of over 3 m, use #6 or similar weight cable with line fuses, 30 A, instead of the supplied DC power cable for a maximum of 6 m (20 ft.).

CONNECTION AND INSTALLATION

■ Antenna

Most stations operate with a whip or long wire (insulated backstay) antenna. However, these antennas cannot be connected directly to the transceiver since their impedance may not be matched with the transceiver antenna connector.

R WARNING: HIGH VOLTAGE!

NEVER touch the antenna element/wire while tun-

ing or transmitting.

With a 50 Ω matched antenna all HF bands cannot be used. The following antenna matcher or antenna tuner may be helpful for antenna installation.
