Digital Personal ID (DP-ID) feature

About the Digital Personal ID (DP-ID) feature

When operating in digital C4FM communications, each transceiver is programmed with, and sends its own individual ID information (Radio ID) in each transmission. The DP-ID function and the individual identification information, makes possible group communica­tions of stations that are within communications range. Digital Personal ID (DP-ID) feature opens the speaker audio only when a signal set to the same DP-ID in the Digital Mode is received, even if each transceiver is set a different Digital Group ID (DG-ID) number. The digital C4FM repeater equipped with the DP-ID function allows preferentially contact in an emergency, regardless of the repeater setting or if the repeater is being used without the DG-ID setting.
• Digital C4FM mode transceivers compatible with the DG-ID function are required in order to utilize this function.
• If the firmware is not compatible with the DG-ID function, update to the latest firmware to use the DG-ID function. The latest firmware is available on the YAESU website.

Registering the DP-ID of the other station

• Once registered, DP-ID is stored until deleted.
• Register with each other's transceivers nearby.
• When setting the DG-ID code to “00”, the transceiver will receive signals from all digital C4FM stations. To utilize the DP-ID function, it is necessary to set the receive DG-ID code to a number other than “00”.
1. Press and hold the [F MENU] key touch [GM] touch [1 DP-ID LIST].
• The DP-ID list is displayed.
• If a number of DP-IDs are registered, rotate the DIAL knob to display the desired DP-ID.
2. A transmission in the digital C4FM mode from the other transceiver will register the DP-ID.
When a signal from the other station is received, the callsign and “REGISTRATION?” are displayed on the LCD.
• When a signal from another registered transceiver is received, nothing is display on the LCD.
• When registering a transceiver already registered with a different call sign, the call sign registered in the DP-ID list is changed to the new registered call sign.

Using the GPS Function

The GPS Function

GPS (Global Positioning System) is a space-based satellite navigation system that provides location and time information anywhere on the earth. It was developed by the U.S. Department of Defense as a military system. When the GPS receiver acquires 3 or more signals (of about 30) GPS satellites orbiting at an altitude of about 20,000 km, it can calculate and display its current position (latitude, longitude, and altitude) within a tolerance of several meters. In addition, GPS can receive the exact time from the satellite onboard atomic clock.

Activating the GPS Function

Activating the GPS function enables the transceiver to automatically obtain the internal clock setting, and your location information setting from the GPS data.
The default setting is ON.
1. Press and hold the [F MENU] key touch [APRS] [20 GPS POWER].
2. Rotate the DIAL knob to select “GPS ON”.
3. Press the PTT switch to save the setting and return to normal operation.
When the GPS function is active, the power consumption increases by about 15 mA. As a result, the battery life is reduced, as compared to when the GPS function is deactivated.

Displaying Position Information of Remote Stations in Digital Mode

With V/D mode of the C4FM digital, the GPS position information is transmitted simultaneously with voice signals; therefore, the direction and position of the remote station can be displayed in real-time even while communicating. For details, see “Real-Time Navigation Function” (page 30)
• Even if the GPS function of your station is set to OFF, the position information of the remote station can be displayed in V/D mode.
• When the GPS function is not active, the remote station cannot display the position information for your station.
26
About Positioning by GPS
“Positioning” refers to calculation of your current position from the satellite orbit information and radio propagation time. At least 3 satellites need to be acquired for successful positioning. If positioning fails, move away from buildings as far as possible and stand in an area with open sky.
• About errors
The measurement environment may result in positioning errors of several hundred meters. Under favorable conditions, positioning can be performed successfully using only three satellites. However, under the following poor conditions, the positioning accuracy can decrease or positioning can fail.
Between tall buildings
Narrow paths between buildings
Indoors or near large buildings
Under elevated roads or high voltage power lines
Between trees such as in forests or woods
Inside a tunnel or underground
Through heat reflective glass
Areas with strong magnetic fields
• When not in use for a long time
When using the GPS functions for the first time after purchase, or when it has been unused in a while, a few minutes may be required to acquire the satellites. Also, if the GPS function has been turned OFF for several hours, a few minutes may be required to search for satellites.

In case of a malfunction

Check the following items before requesting a repair.
zThe transceiver does not turn ON.
• Is the battery depleted?
• Charge the battery pack after purchase, and when the transceiver has not been used for a long time.
• Is the battery pack properly attached? Refer to “Installing the Battery Pack” and securely mount the battery pack.
• Is the external power supply properly connected? When using an external power supply, connect the external power supply adapter with a cigarette lighter plug (SDD-13) or an external power cable (E-DC-6) to DC input jack.
• Is the voltage of the battery pack or the SDD-13 correct? Be sure that there is a charge left in the battery pack (do not completely discharge). Check that the output voltage of the SDD-13 is approximately 12V.
zThere is no sound.
• Is the level of squelch (or S meter squelch) set too high? Press the Monitor Switch and verify that white noise can be heard. Adjust the level of squelch (or S meter squelch) when receiving a weak signal.
• Is the volume low? Rotate the VOL knob clockwise to increase the volume.
• Is the tone squelch or DCS on? When the tone squelch or DCS is on, the sound is not output until the transceiver receives a signal containing the same tone frequency or DCS code set.
• Is the C4FM digital mode on? When the AMS function is on, the sound is not output until the transceiver receives a signal containing the Analog FM mode. Also, when the DG-ID function is on and set the DG-ID number to except for “00”, the sound is not output until the transceiver receives a signal correspond to the DG-ID number.
zThere is no transmission of radio waves.
• Are you pressing the PTT switch properly?
• Is the PTT lock on?
• Is the Busy TX Block (BCLO function) on? When the Busy TX Block (BCLO function) is on, transmission cannot be done when receiving a signal even if PTT is pressed. Wait until signal being received stops and then press PTT.
• Is the transmission frequency on a ham radio band? Transmission cannot be performed on the AM Radio Broadcast Band, the Short-Wave Radio Band, the FM Radio Broadcast Band, the Air Band, or the Information Radio Band.
• Is the voltage of the battery pack or external power source correct? Check the remaining charge on the battery pack. In addition, using an inadequate power supply where voltage drops during transmission will prevent the FT5DR/DE from operating at full capability.
zThe keys or DIAL do not respond.
• Is the Key Lock or DIAL Lock on?
zThe battery pack cannot be charged, or the battery power depletes immediately
after charging.
• Is the battery pack being charged with a charger specified by Yaesu? Charge the battery pack using the accessory battery charger (SAD-25) or the rapid charge cradle (CD-41). When using an external power supply, use the external power supply adapter with a cigarette lighter plug (SDD-13) or an external power cable (E-DC-6). When charging with an external power supply, charge in the input voltage range of 10.5 to 16 VDC with the EXT DC IN terminal.
• Is the battery pack in use exhausted?
• If the “Charging Error” appears on the LCD when charging, there is a chance the battery pack is over discharged. If the error is repetitively displayed after charging the battery pack several times, the battery pack may have reached its service life or be defective. Battery packs are consumables. Please replace the battery pack with a new one immediately. Battery packs can be charged and reused up to approximately 300 times.
