BATTERY INFORMATION

Initial Use

New batteries are shipped from the factory uncharged. Charge a new battery approximately 12 hours prior to initial use

(applies to Ni-CD, Ni-MH and Li-Ion batteries

charged with slow or rapid rate charger). NOTE: The Indicator Light will turn GREEN approximately one hour after battery is placed in a Rapid Rate Charger; however, it is strongly recommended the battery charge for 12 hours. This initializes it and allows for the best performance. Maximum battery capacity is normally achieved after two or three full charge / discharge cycles. If battery power runs low, recharge the battery. Batteries that are brand new or that have been stored for an extended period of time (several weeks), may require more time to fully charge.

Applicable Battery Packs

To reduce the risk of injury, use only batteries

specically designed for your Alpha One

TM

two-way radio.

Caution

1. To avoid risk of personal injury, do not

dispose of batteries in a re.

2. Dispose of batteries according to local recycling regulations. Do not dispose as household waste.

3. Never attempt to disassemble the battery.

Battery Tips

1. When charging a battery, keep it at a temperature between 41°F ~ 104°F (5°C ~ 40°C) to ensure a full charge. Temperatures

outside this range signicantly reduce

battery life.

2. Before charging a battery attached to a radio, turn the radio off to ensure a full charge. Never leave a radio on while it is

9

APR100 Bussines Two-Way Radios Instruction Manual

3. Batteries with damaged contacts can be extremely dangerous. Any battery with damage to one or more contacts should be replaced immediately and not used under any circumstances.

Battery Storage

1. Fully charge a battery before storing it for an extended period of time to avoid battery damage due to over-discharge.

2. Recharge a battery after three months storage to avoid reduced battery capacity due to over-discharge.

3. When storing a battery, keep it in a dry place at room temperature.

Charging the Battery

1. When the battery level is very low, recharge it. It is never recommended to completely drain the battery, which may cause your battery to malfunction and no longer accept a charge.

in the charger, as it can damage both the battery and the radio; the charger is not a radio stand.

3. Do not cut off the power supply or remove battery while charging.

4. Never charge a battery that is wet. Dry it with soft cloth prior to charging.

5. The battery will eventually weaken. When the operating time (talk-time and standby time) is noticeably shorter than normal, replace the battery.

Tips To Prolong Battery Life

1. Battery performance greatly decreases

at temperatures below -4°F (-20°C).Having

a spare battery is always necessary in extremely cold environments. A cold battery may work again when it returns to room temperature,so keep it for later use.

2. Dust on the battery contact may cause the battery not to work or charge properly. Use a clean dry cloth to wipe it before attaching the battery to the radio.

APR100 Bussines Two-Way Radios Instruction Manual

10

2. Use only chargers certied for use with

your Alpha OneTM radio and battery. When the charger’s LED illuminates red, it is an indication that the battery is being correctly charged. When the LED illuminates green, the battery charge is complete.

Steps for setting up your charger

1. Plug the adapter’s AC connector into the AC outlet socket.

2. Plug the adapter’s DC connector into the DC socket on the back of the charger.

3. Place the radio with the battery attached, or the battery alone, in the charger.

4. Make sure the battery contact is touching the charging terminals. The charging process begins when the red LED light illuminates.

5. The green LED light will illuminate approximately one hour later, indicating the battery is fully charged.

ANTENNA INFORMATION

Stubby (3”) antennas are ideal for communication within limited range, and standard (6”) antennas optimize coverage; the longer the antenna, the better the coverage is. If you use a stubby antenna for convenience instead of a standard length antenna, you can expect approximately a 30% reduction in coverage. When using a two-way radio outdoors, heavy rain, snow, buildings or thick forest can dramatically reduce radio coverage.

FUNCTIONS AND SETTINGS

The following radio functions can be enabled by your Alpha OneTM Sales and Service

Center through the radio’s programming software.

BUSY CHANNEL LOCKOUT

Avoid interference with other users on the same channel by preventing transmission if another talkgroup is currently speaking over the air. The radio will generate a continuous tone when the PTT is pressed and will not allow a second transmission to “step-on”the current conversation. Releasing the PTT will cancel the tone.

VOX SENSITIVITY

The VOX Sensitivity can be adjusted with selectable levels between 1-9, where 9 is the

most sensitive.

TX POWER

The transmit power can be adjusted between low (1 Watt), medium (2 Watt) and high (4 Watt).

SQUELCH LEVEL

The purpose of squelch is to mute audio output from the speaker when no signals are present. Open the squelch to unmute radio speaker. The selectable levels are 0-9.

AUDIO SETTING

TIME OUT TIMER (TOT)

This limits the amount of time the radio user can continuously transmit on a channel. If the user holds down the PTT longer than the preprogrammed limit, the radio automatically stops transmitting and generates a warning tone until the PTT is released. Your Alpha One Sales and Service Center may program the alert tone that sounds before the TOT timer nearly expires. See Glossary for the

denition of Time-out Timer.

CTCSS/DCS

The setting of CTCSS/CDCSS code in transmitting party must match that in the
