PRECAUTIONS
Thank you for purchasing the RMK-4 separation kit.
The RMK-4 allows you to connect the additional
HEAD to the IC-F9511HT to enable dual-head operation.
Depending on the length of separation you need, use either
the optional OPC-607, OPC-608, OPC-609 or OPC-726
aration cable with the RMK-4.

USE the specified microphone only. Other microphones have
different pin assignments and may damage CONT
the transceiver’s main unit.
KEEP the transceiver’s main unit (with the RMK-4) and CON-
TROL HEADs away from heavy rain, and never immerse them
in the water.
The transceiver’s main unit (with the RMK-4) and CONTROL
HEADs meet IP54 requirements for dust-protection and splash
resistance when the optional microphone*, the front/rear plate(s)
and the speaker jack cover of CONTROL HEAD are attached.
However, if these items are dropped, dust-protection and splash
resistance cannot be guaranteed because of possible damage to
the cases or the waterproof seals.

D Panel Lock function
Set the Panel Lock function to ON or OFF. (default: ON)
The Panel Lock function locks all keys and the dial other than

cloning software on both CONTROL HEADs for match-
ing the CONTROL HEAD’s performance. Ask your dealer
for details.
D TX AF Monitoring function
Set the TX AF Monitoring function to ON or OFF. (default: ON)
This function allows the operator of CONTROL HEAD to
monitor the other side’s communication.
When one CONTROL HEAD operator is communicating, the

Set the RX Speaker Tuning function to ON or OFF for CONTROL HEAD 1 (main). (default: OFF)
This function allows the operator of CONTROL HEAD 1 to
adjust the output level of the external speaker that is con
nected to the transceiver’s main unit.
ON : The audio output level of the external speaker is adjust
able with the AF volume control knob on CONTROL
HEAD 1.
The minimum audio output level must be set to more
than 1 on the transceiver’s main unit in order to avoid
muting the audio output.
OFF : The audio output level of the external speaker is not
adjustable by CONTROL HEADs.
D Intercom function
Set the Intercom function to ON or OFF. (default: ON)
The Intercom function allows CONTROL HEAD operators to
communicate each other via their microphones.
The optional microphone and the SP-22
are required.
ON : The [INTERCOM] function is assigned to [P3], and
-
you can enter and exit the Intercom mode by pushing
[P3 (INTERCOM)].
OFF : [P3] retains the originally programmed function and the

NOTE:
• When one CONTROL HEAD enters the Intercom mode,
the other CONTROL HEAD also enters even if this func
tion is set to OFF.
• When this function is set to ON, the key function [Null]
must be assigned to [P3] by the CS-F9010/F9510
ing software on both CONTROL HEADs for matching
the CONTROL HEAD’s performance. Ask your dealer for

■ Intercom function
[P3] is used for the Intercom function ON/OFF switch when
the Intercom function is set to ON in the REMOTE BOX SET
MODE. (No other function can be assigned.)
The Intercom function allows the operators of CONTROL
HEAD 1 and 2 to communicate each other via their micro
phones.
The optional microphone and the SP-22
are required.
NOTE:
• Transmitting is impossible during intercom operation.
• During intercom operation, when [PTT] is pushed and
held on the caller’s side, any received radio signal is
muted on the listener side’s CONTROL HEAD external
speaker. However, the received radio signal can be heard
on the caller side’s CONTROL HEAD external speaker
and the main unit’s external speaker.
• When the message signal is received, it is not displayed
on the LCD of CONTROL HEADs during intercom opera
tion. After exiting the intercom mode, it will be displayed
on the LCD.
• During intercom operation, CONTROL HEADs 1 and 2
return to the normal operation mode, if no [PTT] opera
tion is performed for 30 sec.

■ NOTES
• Transmission can be performed on either CONTROL HEADs
1 or 2 at the same time.
• The Power ON Password function will not work properly
when attaching the RMK-4.
• The RMK-4 is not designed for the single-head operation.
For single-head operation, use the original attachment and
cable combination— no RMK-4 is necessary.
But when the one of CONTROL HEADs is accidently bro
ken, the RMK-4 may go into the unintended single-head op
eration mode. In that case, the Intercom function
turned OFF. Otherwise, any problem may occur.
