BASIC MANUAL

INSTALLATION AND CONNECTIONS

■ Connecting to a battery

R WARNING!

• NEVER remove the fuses from the cable connecting the

transceiver to a power source, especially a car battery.

• NEVER connect the transceiver directly to a 24 V battery.

The transceiver must be connected to a 24 V battery through the DC-DC converter.

CAUTION:

• DO NOT use a cigarette lighter socket as a power source

when operating in a vehicle. The plug may cause voltage drops and ignition noise may be superimposed onto transmit or receive audio.

• DO NOT pull or tightly bend the DC power cable.

• DO NOT reverse the polarity when connecting the DC

power cable.

• Use a rubber grommet when passing the DC power cable through a metal plate to prevent a short circuit.

• The transceiver may not receive well on some frequencies when installed in a hybrid vehicle, or any type of electric vehicle (fuel cell vehicle). This is because vehicle’s electric components, such as the inverter system, generate a lot of electrical noise.

MAINTENANCE

■ Resetting

Occasionally, erroneous information will be displayed when,

for example, rst applying power. This may be caused

externally by static electricity or by other factors. If this problem occurs, turn OFF the transceiver. After waiting a few seconds, turn ON the transceiver again. If the problem is still there, perform a Partial reset or an All reset. A Partial reset resets the operating settings to their default values (VFO frequency, VFO settings, menu contents) without clearing data as listed below:

Memory channel contents Scan Edge contents Call channel contents Call sign memories Message data DTMF memory contents GPS Memory contents Repeater list

BE CAREFUL! An All reset clears all programming and returns all settings to their factory defaults. After All Resetting, you cannot use the DR function because the Repeater List contents are also cleared. See the Advanced manual for details. (Section 10)

MAINTENANCE

■ Fuse replacement

A fuse is installed in each fuse holder of the supplied DC power cable. If a fuse blows, or the transceiver stops functioning, track down the source of the problem if possible, repair it and then replace the damaged fuse with a new rated one (FGB 15 A).

R WARNING!

• NEVER remove the fuse holders from the DC power

cable. USE only the applicable fuses.

• NEVER replace the fuse when the DC cable is connected

to the power supply.

■ Power protect function

The transceiver is equipped with a protection circuit for the power ampliﬁer. The circuit activates when the transceiver continuously transmit at high power, and then the temperature becomes extremely high. In this case, the transceiver automatically reduces transmit output power to low (approximately 5 W). When the Power Protect function activates, wait until the transceiver’s temperature returns to normal.

NOTE: When the power supply voltage is high, the transceiver automatically displays “Over Voltage,” and then sounds a warning beep. In this case, the transceiver may be damaged. In that case, contact your nearest Icom Dealer or Service Center.
