About Notations
About Notations
The following notations are used in this manual.
[ ]
The characters in [ ] indicate the name of the operating portion of the transceiver and the key of the PC.
“ ” (Double Quotation Mark)
characters in “ ” indicate the name of the functions, buttons, and menus shown on the KPG-D1/ KPG-D1N or the display
The
of the transceiver.
Bold Letters
The characters in bold letters indicate the name of the windows, tabs, checkboxes in KPG-D1/ KPG-D1N and functions
assigned to keys on the transceiver.
[ ] + [ ]
This notation is used for describing functions activated by pressing 2 keys on the PC keyboard at the same time. For example,
the notation to enter a capitalized A on the PC is [Shift] + [a] for pressing the [a] key while pressing the [Shift] key.
PF (Programmable Function) Key
This function is used for describing the key that is assigned with any function. When the Reset function is assigned to the
[A] key, the [A] key is described as the “Reset key”.
Notations for FPU names
KPG-D1 and KPG-D1N are referred to collectively as “KPG-D1/ D1N” in this document.
About the Notation of the Supported Models
This manual describes the supported models according to the following rules:

About the Programming Software
About the Programming Software
Various functions and parameters of the transceiver can be configured by using the KPG-D1/ D1N software. Various
functions
KPG-46X (Mobile) programming cable and writing the data configured using KPG-D1/ D1N to the transceiver. In this manual,
a corresponding reference in the help texts of KPG-D1/ D1N is described for each function of the Function Reference.
Therefore, you can configure the function by referring to the function also appearing in the help texts of KPG-D1/ D1N.
KPG-D1N is the programming software to configure functions for the transceiver to be used in the U.S.A.

About the Notation of “Configuration Using KPG-D1/ D1N”
In this manual, for the description of each function written as “Configuration using KPG-D1/ D1N”, a corresponding reference
in the help texts of KPG-D1/ D1N is described. Therefore, you can configure the function by referring to the function also
appearing in the help texts of KPG-D1/ D1N.
About the Zone-channel Format
Using KPG-D1/ D1N, the zone information of the transceiver can be configured by selecting whether to configure for each
the channels in the same communication system (Analog Conventional, P25 Conventional, NXDN Conventional, P25
zone
Trunking, NXDN Trunking, or DMR Conventional), or channels in different systems.
Channel Table:
The communication system to be used can be selected for each zone. Only channels which use the same communication
system can be configure in a zone.
Personality:
The communication system to be used can be selected for each channel. Channels which use different communication
systems can exist in a zone.
In this manual, the Channel Table format or the Personality format may be described in explanations and references. This
indicates that the function is enabled only when the format is configured. Also, the data configured by the Channel Table
format can be migrated to the Personality format, but the data configured by the Personality format cannot be migrated to
the Channel Table format.
Refer to the help texts of KPG-D1/ D1N for the method for configuring Zone-channel Format using KPG-D1/ D1N.

About the Built-in GPS Receiver Unit
About the Built-in GPS Receiver Unit
The GPS receiver is built-in for NX-5200/ NX-5300/ NX-5400/ NX-5700/ NX-5800/ NX-5900. Read the following warnings
before using the built-in GPS receiver unit of NX-5200/ NX-5300/ NX-5400/ NX-5700/ NX-5800/ NX-5900.
On the use of the GPS
0
With frequency interference in the GPS receive frequency range to the transceiver or another transceiver, the GPS
receiver may not position normally.
If the GPS receiver positions during transmission:
1.
0
The GPS receiver may be unable to position if the transmit spurious emission of the transceiver interferes within the
GPS receive frequency range.
0
The interference to the GPS receiver changes depending on the transmission power of the transceiver. Greater
transmission power results in the higher possibility of being unable to position.
2. If the GPS receiver positions during reception:
0
The GPS receiver may be unable to position if the harmonics of the oscillator equipped in the transceiver interfere
within the GPS receive frequency range.
3. Effects of other interfering frequencies (such as if other transceivers transmit):
0
If even transmit and receive frequencies other than the above, the GPS receiver may be unable to position if
frequencies emitted from other transceivers and electronic equipment interfere within the GPS receive frequency
range.
As the built-in GPS receiver unit consumes more power when powered on compared to when powered off, the battery
0
life of the transceiver becomes shorter compared to when the built-in GPS receiver unit is powered off.
If the clock in the transceiver is not configured, a cold start always occurs. Therefore, the time until the start of positioning
0
is longer. (Refer to Adjusting the Time.)
