Battery charge

The TL-22 is equipped with a Lithium Ion battery (also known as Li-Ion or simply Lithium battery). The main characteristics of these batteries are lightness, no memory eﬀect and a high energetic capacity in a reduced size. The majority of the lithium batteries have more advantages than Ni-Mh batteries or the older and obsolete ones of Ni-Cad (the cadmium is a very pollutant element), thought it is necessary to take some cautions with the Lithium batteries, therefore we recommend you to read carefully the warnings indicated on the subject of Lithium batteries in the paragraph located in the pages 4, 5 and 6 of the Cautions and practical advices.

To carry out the charge of the batteries, the equipment is supplied with the LUTHOR TL-440 charger, it is an intelligent one that identiﬁes the battery charge to recharge it only during the necessary time to complete its full capacity. In the case that the battery is totally ﬂat, the full capacity will be reached in about 5 hours. WARNING: it is

not at all advisable to recharge the battery with another charger than the original TL-440 and not try to charge another battery diﬀerent than the ones provided by the brand for this charger.

Detailed descriptions

1) Scanning mode (SCAN – MENU 1 and SCANS – MENU 17) Function: staying in the MR / VFO / CH modes, the transceiver allows the search into

the whole operative band or in the memorized channels. Enter into the menu 1 and press [ ] to start the search. Once the search has started, press [ ] or [ ] to change the search direction. The search will stop when a signal has found, press the PTT button to stop the search; press the MONI button to stop temporally the search; press [ ] to exit the scanning mode. The scanning function is the same for everyone of the diﬀerent modes. Before starting the search, take a moment to select the way you prefer the search to stop when founding a signal.

Enter into the menu 17 to select the adjustment for the scanning mode. The default value is TO.

There are three search options avaliable. TO: in this mode, the search will stop in the signal found, and will stay in this signal for a while. If you don’t make any action to cancel the search during this period of time, the search will restart although the signal is still active.

Page 32

www.luthor.es

CO: in this mode, the search will stop in the signal found, and will stay in this signal until

it ends. Once the signal ends, the search will restart. SE: in this mode, the search will stop in the signal found, and will not restart automatically, you will have to restart the search if you want it to continue.

2) Selection of priority channel ( TX.SEL – MENU 2) Function: allows transmitting in a concrete channel although you are receiving in

another diﬀerent channel.

Enter into the menu 2 and press [ ] to select the priority channel. The default value is: EDIT. EDIT: you will transmit on the channel chosen as predetermined or priority. BUSY: you will transmit on the last channel used for transmitting.

3) Conﬁguration of VOX level and activation (VOX – MENU 3 and VOX.SW – MENU 13) Function: allows the user to transmit without pressing the PTT button, when the

equipment hears a sound, it actives the transmission automatically. The equipment can realize this function individually with its own microphone or can be used another external element such an earphone with PTT/VOX switch.

Enter into the menu 13 to activate the VOX function. The default value is: OFF.

When this function is on, the “VOX” icon will appear on the display.

Page 33

If you set a too high level, the signal that you will receive will be very clean of noise, but it will go to the detriment of the communication, that is, in this case you will lose reception distance. On the contrary if you set a too low level or deactivate the squelch, you will count with an increased reception distance but the radio will be object to receive noises or worse quality

7) Cloning

This function allows sending the same information and conﬁguration from one equipment to another one. Prepare two units of the TL-22 model and a cloning cable, the ﬁrst unit will be the “Master” one and it will have all the information we want to transmit to the other equipment, the second equipment, the one called the “Receptor”, it will be the one in which we want to store all the information contained in the ﬁrst equipment.

1) The “Receptor” equipment will be turned on and the “Master”

equipment will be turned oﬀ.

2) Connect the cloning cable between the two equipments. In the “Master” equipment, while pressing both PTT button and [ ] turn it on, on the display “CLONE” will be showed.

3) Press [ ] button in the “Master” equipment to start cloning.
