3. Transceiver Controls and Indicators

3-1. Front Panel Controls
All the keys on the front panel are momentary-type push buttons. The functions of these keys are explained below.
POWER key
Transceiver POWER key. When the power is switched off, all the parameters are stored in memory. When the power is switched on again, the transceiver returns to the previous conditions.
4
DTMF ID (BOT)
In conventional mode, if you press this key, a predeter-
mined DTMF ID (Begin of TX) will be sent automatically.
DTMF ID (EOT)
In conventional mode, if you press this key, a predeter-
mined DTMF ID (End of TX) will be sent automatically.
Emergency
Pressing this key for longer than the programmed “Emer­gency Key Delay Time” causes the transceiver to enter the Emergency mode and display the “Emergency Display” set­ting. The transceiver automatically switches to the “Emer­gency System/Group” and transmits for the programmed “Duration of Transmission Mode”.
The transceiver disables MIC mute while transmitting. After finishing transmission, the transceiver receives for the programmed “Duration of Receiving Mode”. The trans­ceiver mutes the speaker while receiving.
OPERATING FEATURES
TK -863G
Following the above sequence, the transceiver continues to transmit and receive. While in Emergency mode, switch the power OFF or press [Emergency] for longer than the pro­grammed “Emergency Key Delay Time” to exit Emergency mode. Note : This function can be assigned to only the Foot switch.
Group up/down
When the key is pressed each time, the group number to be selected is incremented/decremented and repeats if held for one second or longer.
Home group
Each pressing of the key selects a preset system/group.
Horn alert
If you are called from the base station or other party using signalling for Horn Alert function selected in a group, while you are away from your transceiver, you will be alerted by the vehicle horn or some other type of external alert. To turn the horn alert function on , press this key. A confirmation tone sounds.
If this key is pressed again, the horn alert function is turned off.
Key lock
Pressing this key causes the transceiver to accept entry of only the [Vol Up/Down], [Key lock], [PTT], [Monitor Mo­mentary], [Monitor Toggle], [Squelch Off Momentary], [Squelch Off Toggle], and [Emergency] keys.
Memory
This key allows DTMF memory data to be recalled; up to 32 memories each with a memory dial of up to 16 digits and an A/N of up to 8 digits per memory.
Monitor
Used to release signalling or squelch when operating as a conventional.
None
Sounds error operation beep, and no action will occur. Use this function when the transceiver is required to be more simple operated.
Public address
Public address amplifies the microphone audio, and out­puts it through a PA speaker. PA is activated by pressing this key. A confirmation tone sounds, (and the display shows “PA”). PA can be activated at anytime (scanning or non-scanning).
If this key is pressed again, a confirmation tone will sound, (the display will return to the normal group or SCAN display), and the PA function will turn off.
Redial
If you press this key when the system/group is displayed, the last transmitted DTMF code will appear on the display. Pressing the PTT switch at this time will transmit the dis­played DTMF code.
Scan
Press this key starts scanning. Pressing this key stops scanning.
Scan del/add
Used to select whether system scan routines are used during system scan. Each pressing of the key (to ON) toggles between lockout and lock. The scan routine is started when on lock. The DEL indicator flashes when the system is on lockout.
Scan temporary delete
This key is temporarily deleted a system being scanned. If you press this key when scan is stopped (when a call is being received from another station), the system is tempo­rarily deleted and scanning restarts.
This key operates even when “Scan Type” is set to “List Type System Scan”.
System up/down
When the key is pressed each time, the system number to be selected is incremented/decremented and repeats if held for one second or longer.
Telephone disconnect
Pressing this key ends an RIC connection (disconnects the telephone line).
Volume up/down
When the key is pressed, the volume level is increased/ decreased and repeats if held for 200ms or longer.

4. Scan Operating

System Scan
System scan can be selected with the “Scan” key by pro­gramming the scan feature. When the “Scan” key is pressed and the “SCN” mark appears, scan mode in en­tered. Scanning starts from the system following the cur­rently displayed system. When a call is received, scanning stops, and the system and group are displayed.
When programming key is touched during scanning, the scan stops and the revert system or group can be changed. Scanning resumes one second after the key is released.
There are two types of system scan.
Fix system scan
All the set systems except locked-out ones are scanned. If the Del/Add feature is assigned to the programmable key, it can be controlled from the front panel.
5
TK -863G
OPERATING FEATURES
List type system scan
A scan list can be set for each system. The list to be scanned can be changed by changing the
display system.
If many systems have been set, the scan speed can be increased by narrowing the systems to be scanned with scan lists.
System Lockout
The system lockout feature is used to lock systems out of the scan sequence, and can be selected by programming in the following two ways;
Fixed lockout
The system to be locked out is selected by programming. When a locked system is selected, the Delete ( appears on the left of the SYSTEM indicator. The revert sys­tem is scanned even if it is locked out. If there is a locked system, the Delete ( ning.
) indicator flashes during fixed scan-
) indicator
User selectable lockout
If the scan lockout feature is programmed to a key, the user can lock systems out of the scan sequence with the key. To lock a system out of the scan sequence, press the key when the system is displayed. The Delete ( is displayed on the left of the SYSTEM indicator.
To unlock a system, select the system and press the key. The Delete ( tem has returned to the scan sequence. The revert system is scanned even if it is locked out. If there a locked system, the Delete ( systems are locked out, the scan stops and only the revert system is received.
) indicator disappears to indicate that the sys-
) indicator flashes during fixed scanning. If all
) indicator
Drop-out Delay Time (Scan Resume Time)
If a call is received during scan, the scan stops. The scan resume time can be programmed as 0 to 300 seconds in one-second increments. The default value is 3 seconds.
Dwell Time
The dwell time is the time after transmission ends until the scan resumes in scan mode. It can be set 0 to 300 sec­onds by programming. The default value is 3 seconds.
System/Group Revert
System/group revert can be programmed for one of the following;
Last called revert
The system or group changes to the revert system or group when a call is received with the system or group be­ing scanned.
Last used revert
If a system/group call is received during scanning and the PTT button is pressed for transmission and response within the drop out delay time, the system or group is assigned as the new revert system or group.
Selected revert
If the system/group was changed while scanning, the newly selected system/group.
Selected + Talkback revert
If the system/group was changed while scanning, the newly selected system/group. The transceiver “talks back” on the current receive group.
Scan Massage Wait
The time for staying with the home repeater that re­ceives a signal during system scan and monitoring data messages can be programmed. If there is no signal from the home repeater, the system is scanned for about 50ms. If there is a signal, three data messages are monitored. Normally, three data messages are monitored for each sys­tem, and it can be increased in multiples of three data mes­sages per line to up to eight lines.
If the repeater data message indicates that there is no call, data monitoring is terminated and the home repeater of the next system is scanned.
Group Scan Operation
Group scan can be programmed for each group. In addi­tion to the ID codes of the selected group, the ID codes of the other groups that are permitted for group scan are de­coded. (The two fixed ID and block decode codes are al­ways decoded.)
If, during group scanning, a call is received with one of the selectable group ID codes for which group scan is en­abled, the group display indicates the group number that the call came in with. That group then becomes the new se­lected group. Group scan resumes after the specified drop­out delay time or dwell time shared by the system scan elapses.
In Conventional System
If QT or DQT is set for the channel, the channels, includ­ing signalling, are scanned.
In case of the priority group is set in conventional sys­tem, if a group scan (including group scan during a system scan) temporarily stops (receiving) in a group that does not have priority, a look back is performed to the priority group. Look back is performed according to the look back time A and B settings. If a call is received on the priority group, reception immediately switches to the priority group.

5. Details of Features

Time-out Timer
The time-out timer can be programmed in 15 seconds increments from 15 seconds to ten minutes. If the transmit­ter is keyed continuously for longer than the programmed time, the transmitter is disabled and a warning tone sounds while the PTT button is held down. The alert tone stops when the PTT button is released.
PTT ID
PTT ID provides a DTMF ANI to be sent with every time PTT (beginning of transmission, end of transmission, or both).
You can program PTT ID “on” or “off” for each group. The contents of ID are programmed for each transceiver.
The timing that the transceiver sends ID is program­mable.
BOT : DTMF ID (BOT) is sent on beginning of transmis-
sion.
EOT : DTMF ID (EOT) is sent on end of transmission.
Both : DTMF ID (BOT) is sent on beginning of transmis-
sion and DTMF ID (EOT) is sent on end of transmission.
Radio Password
When the password is set in the transceiver, user can not use the transceiver unless enter the correct password.
This code can be up to 6 digits from 0 to 9 and input with the key, and "SCN" key.
Off Hook Decode
If the Off hook decode function has been enabled, re­moving and replacing the microphone on the hook has no effect for decoding QT/DQT.
Horn Alert
Horn alert can be set to on or off for each group. If horn alert has been set to YES for a group and DEC ID/QT/DQT matches, the horn alert, HOR. is turned on and off.
Either continuous or non-continuous operation can be set by the FPU. The horn alert port is enabled or disabled as follows;
Off hook horn alert
Enable Yes Yes
Disable No Yes
Pulse
The horn alert port, HOR, is turned on and off as follows;
0.5s 0.5s 0.5s 0.5s 0.5s
Hook off Hook on
HOR
The timing when the fixed LTR ID matches is as follows
(trunking mode);
1s 0.5s 1s
Continuous
Horn alert can be reset by setting an expiration time from
the FPU, pressing the Horn Alert key, or setting off hook.
Data TX with QT/DQT
Whether programmed QT/DQT is modulated or not with a data transmission. A radio unit can receive a data mes­sage regardless of QT/DQT if the receiving unit is not scan­ning.
Call Indicator
The call indicator can be programmed for each group. In trunked system, it can be set to respond to a selectable de­code ID or one of two fixed IDs, except block IDs. When a call is received with a selectable decode ID, the call indicator flashes. When a call is received with a fixed ID, the call indicator lights continuously.
On a conventional system, the call indicator can be pro­grammed to light for each QT or DQT code. It keeps flash­ing while a call is being received. It is turned off by pressing any front panel key.
Free System Ringback
This feature is available only when a telephone intercon­nected ID code is selected. If a busy tone sounds when the PTT button is pressed, the transceiver enters this mode au­tomatically.
When the PTT button is released, a beep sounds for 400ms to indicate that the mode has been entered. If the scan is on, it is resumed (the “SCN” mark goes on). When any repeater becomes available, a ringing tone sounds and this mode ends.
The mode is terminated when the system, group, scan, PTT, key is changed.
System Search
This feature can be programmed to automatically access other programmed systems when the selected system can­not be accessed. If an intercept tone sounds when the PTT button is pressed after setting the mode, the transceiver has entered the mode.
If the group ID is a telephone interconnect ID, the trans­ceiver then attempts to access, in succession, other sys­tems that have a telephone interconnect ID in the revert group location. If the group ID is a dispatch ID, the trans­ceiver attempts to access other systems that have a dis­patch ID programmed in the revert group location.
7
TK -863G
OPERATING FEATURES
If there is no system to be accessed, an intercept tone sounds, the mode is terminated, and the transceiver returns to the first system. If the access is successful, the mode is terminated, and the searched system becomes the new se­lected system (If during scanning, the scan stops).
Transpond
This feature can be programmed to turn on and off for each group. If the ID of the group for which transpond is enabled is received, two data messages (transmit ID and turn-off code) are automatically transmitted if the PTT but­ton is not pressed as a response within the time set (0 to 300 seconds in 1-second increments). If the PTT button is pressed within the time, the transpond is not preformed.
Transmit Inhibit
The transceiver can be programmed with a transmit in­hibit block of ID codes. If an ID code within this block is decoded the preset time before the PTT button is pressed, transmission is inhibited. The BUSY indicator lights and a busy tone sounds until the PTT button is released to indicate that transmission is not possible (except clear-to talk mode).
ARQ Mode
It affects Trunking mode only. Automatic Repeat reQuest (ARQ) mode is a manner to minimize the air traffic of data communication. Also, it enables to occupy the trunking repeater channel for the data communication pe­riod.

6. Audible User Feedback Tones

When the calculation is completed, the display returns to
normal and PC displays the check sum of the radio.

5. PC Mode

5-1. Preface
The TK-863G transceiver is programmed using a personal
computer, a programming interface (KPG-46) and program­ming software (KPG-76D).
The programming software can be used with an IBM PC
or compatible. Figure 1 shows the setup of an IBM PC for programming.
5-2. Connection Procedure
1. Connect the TK-863G to the personal computer with the interface cable.
2. When the Power is switched on, user mode can be en­tered immediately. When the PC sends a command, the radio enters PC mode. When data is transmitted from transceiver, the red LED blink. When data is received by the transceiver, the green LED blink.
Notes :
• The data stored in the personal computer must match model type when it is written into the flash memory.
• Change the TK-863G to PC mode, then attach the inter­face cable.
5-3. KPG-46 Description
(PC programming interface cable : Option)
The KPG-46 is required to interface the TK-863G to the
computer. It has a circuit in its D-subconnector (25-pin) case that converts the RS-232C logic level to the TTL level.
The KPG-46 connects the modular microphone jack of
the TK-863G to the computers RS-232C serial port.
IBM-PC
KPG-46
5-4. Programming Software Description
The KPG-76D programming disk is supplied in 3-1/2" disk format. The software on this disk allows a user to program TK-863G radio via a programming interface cable (KPG-46).
5-5. Programming With IBM PC
If data is transferred to the transceiver from an IBM PC with the KPG-76D, the destination data (basic radio informa­tion) for each set can be modified. Normally, it is not neces­sary to modify the destination data because their values are determined automatically when the frequency range (fre­quency type) is set.
The values should be modified only if necessary. Data can be programmed into the flash memory in RS-232C for­mat via the modular microphone jack.

6. Firmware Programming Mode

6-1. Preface
Flash memory is mounted on the TK-863G. This allows the TK-863G to be upgraded when new features are re­leased in the future. (For details on how to obtain the firm­ware, contact Customer Service.)
6-2. Connection Procedure
Connect the TK-863G to the personal computer (IBM PC or compatible) with the interface cable (KPG-46). (Connec­tion is the same as in the PC Mode.)
6-3. Programming
1. Start up the programming software (FPRO EXE.).
2. Set the communications speed (normally, 57600 bps)

1. If you press the [MON] switch while “PROG 576” is dis­played, the checksum is displayed. If you press the [MON] switch again (while the checksum is displayed), “PROG 576” is redisplayed.
2. If you press the [A] switch while “PROG 576” is dis­played, the display changes to “PROG 192” to indicate that the write speed is low speed (19200 bps). If you press the [A] switch again while “PROG 192” is dis­played, the display changes to “PROG 384”, and the write speed becomes the middle speed (38400 bps). If you press the [A] switch again while “PROG 384” is dis­played, the display returns to “PROG 576”.
Note :
Normally, write in the high-speed mode.

7. Clone Mode

Programming data can be transferred from one radio to
another by connecting them via their modular microphone jacks. The operation is as follows (the transmit radio is the master and the receive radio is the slave).
1. Turn the master TK-863G power ON with the [ held down. If the password is set to the TK-863G, the TK-863G displays “CLN LOCK”. If the password is not set, the TK-863G displays “CLONE”.
2. When “CLN LOCK” is displayed, only the [ [SCN], and [0] to [9] keys can be accepted. When you enter the correct password, and “CLONE” is displayed, the TK-863G can be used as the cloning master. The fol­lowing describes how to enter the password.
3. How to enter the password with the microphone keypad; If you press a key while “CLN LOCK” is displayed, the number that was pressed is displayed on the TK-863G. Each press of the key shifts the display in order to the left. When you enter the password and press the [SCN] key, “CLONE” is displayed if the entered password is correct. If the password is incorrect, “CLN LOCK” is redisplayed. How to enter the password with the [ If the [ played, numbers (0 to 9) are displayed flashing. When you press the [SCN] key, the currectly selected number is determined, and the display shifts to the left.
