Precautions
Avoid water and salt in the I/O connector and keep it
clean frequently.
Only use original Thrane & Thrane battery packs. Make
sure they are clean and dry before attaching the
transceiver. Be careful not to damage any gaskets.
Only use the original Thrane & Thrane charger for the
rechargeable battery.
Be very careful when handling the Lithium batteries.
With correct use they are safe but any misuse might
cause dangerous situations.
Never short circuit the battery terminals, never expose
the transceiver and the batteries to extreme temperature
or fire and never use any kind of violence.
Avoid close contact between the antenna and parts of
the human body. The top of the antenna must never be
closer than 2.5 cm to the body when transmitting.
Do not submerge the transceiver more than 1 m for 30
minutes.
Keep the transceiver at least 0.3 m away from the
magnetic compass.

Training information
SAILOR SP3550 UHF is designed for to be operated safely. It must be operated by
licensed personnel only.
The SP3550 complies with the uncontrolled RF exposure limits.
• FCC OET Bulletin 65 Supplement C, evaluating compliance with FCC guidelines
for human exposure to radio frequency electromagnetic fields.
• American National Standards Institute (C95.1) IEEE standard for safety levels
with respect to human exposure to radio frequency electromagnetic fields,
3 kHz to 300 GHz.
• American National Standards Institute (C95.3) IEEE recommended practice for
the measurement of potentially hazardous electromagnetic fields - RF and
microwaves.
Warning! Your Thrane & Thrane UHF radio generates
electromagnetic RF (radio frequency) energy when
transmitting. To ensure that you are not exposed to excessive
amounts of energy and thus to avoid health hazards from
excessive exposure to RF energy, all persons must be at least
2.5 cm away from the antenna when the radio is transmitting.
Correct use
For best performance, hold the radio vertically and 5 cm away from the head when
talking into the microphone.

Other functions
Programming the scanning memory
To add a channel to the scanning memory, select the channel and then
press and hold the SCN key until the display shows MEM at the top.
To remove a channel from the scanning memory, select the channel and
then press and hold the SCN key until the MEM sign disappears from the
display.
Low power operation
The radio can be operated in low power mode. In this mode battery life
time is dramatically increased. Up to the first second of a received call
SLEEP
might be lost if this mode is selected. Refer to
Continuous Tone Coded Squelch System
On channels where it is allowed, you can set up selective squelch
opening by sub-tone detection (CTCSS), using the configuration mode
CTCSS
(see
CTCSS on a channel, it is impossible to receive a normal signal on that
channel. For this reason, be very careful not to use CTCSS programmed
channels in emergency situations. Channels programmed with CTCSS will
have a clear identification in the service field, e.g. "CTCSS 22", while
selected. Not all channels are allowed for CTCSS use.
For maritime channels CTCSS is automatically disabled when
•Product is turned off
• A new channel is selected
For private channels, the feature will remain until manually removed.

Operation
Scrambler
On channels where it is allowed, you can set up voice scrambling, using
configuration mode (see
SCRM
on page 22).
Please note that if the radio is operating with scrambling on a channel, it
is impossible to communicate with other radios that are not programmed
with the same scrambler code. For this reason, be very careful not to use
scrambled channels in emergency situations. Scrambled channels will
have a clear identification in the service field, e.g. "SCRM 3", while
selected. Not all regions allow the use of voice scrambling.
For maritime channels scrambling is automatically disabled when
• Product is turned off
• A new channel is selected
For private channels, scrambling will remain until manually removed.
Note Prior to any initiation of scrambling, the operator must always
identify the calling station in clear voice (unscrambled) on that
channel. Use of scrambling may also be restricted by national
laws.
Narrow band operation
The radio is prepared for narrow band operation. (see
Narrow band configuration is indicated with an “n” next to the channel
designator.

The battery chargers
The chargers has two compartments.
CH3507
•A rear compartment only for
storing a spare battery. It does not
have a charger function.
• A front compartment for
recharging the battery alone or
while attached to the radio.
CH3508
• It is possible to charge a battery in
rear compartment simultaneously
with the radio/battery in front.
Installing the charger
Mounting the charger
There are several options for
mounting one or more chargers on a
table or a wall.
For information on dimensions and
screw positions, refer to

Batteries
Connecting to power
The charger can be supplied from DC or from AC using an AC/DC
converter.
DC: Connect the 12-24VDC Connection Cable between the DC supply and
the connector on the underside of the charger.
AC: Connect the AC/DC converter to the connector on the underside of the
charger. Then connect the AC/DC converter to the AC outlet.
Recharging the battery
To recharge the battery, place the radio1 with battery or the battery alone
in the front position of the charger cradle.
The light indicators on the charger cradle show the status as follows:
• Green light: Power is connected to the charger.
• Slow red flash: Charging in progress.
• Quick red flash (twice per second): Charging error, e.g. battery defect
or temperature out of range.
• Steady red light: Charging completed. Trickle charge mode.
Charging time with emtpy battery: UHF off
approx. 4 hours, UHF on: approx. 5 hours.
The battery indicator on the radio display
indicates if the radio is placed in the
charger while radio and charger are both
powered.

Battery life guidelines
Battery (rechargeable)
Note New batteries should be placed in the charger for minimum 12
hours first time.
During daily use, always keep the battery fully charged and away from
hot areas.
Keep the battery terminals dry and clean.
Never discharge beyond the specifications of the battery.
Operation/Standby time depends on usage. Generally, the more the radio
is transmitting, the faster it will drain the battery. Also, the “Hi” power
setting will drain the battery faster than the “Lo” setting.
Approximate figures are:
• A battery can be stored for 4 to 6 month at 25°C if charged to 25%.
• The battery will normally last for 5 to 9 hours of use on a fully
charged battery.
