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.

zDigital C4FM mode transceivers compatible with the DG-ID function are required in order to

utilize this function.

zIf 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. The latest firmware is available on the YAESU website. The latest firmware is available on the YAESU website.

Registering the DP-ID of the other station

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] key, to enter the Set Mode.

2. Rotate the DIAL knob to select [17 DP-ID].

3. Press the [F] key.

• The DP-ID list is displayed.

• If a number of DP-IDs are registered, rotate the DIAL knob to display the desired DP-ID.

4. 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 “REG” are displayed on the LCD.

zWhen a signal from another registered transceiver is received, nothing is display on the

LCD.

zWhen 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.

Registering to the Programmable Memory Channels

50 sets of PMS memory channels (L1/U1 to L50/U50) are available. Register the lower and upper frequencies of the frequency range in a pair of Programmable Memory Channels,

L££: Lower limit memory channel U

: Upper limit memory channel

££

For more details on registering frequencies to the memory channel, see “Registering To Memory channel” (see the operating manual).

zMake sure to use the corresponding numbers for the lower and upper limit memory channels. zSet the PMS memory channel for performing the Programmable Memory scanning (PMS) as

follows.

• The scan width of the upper and lower limit frequencies must be 100 kHz or more.

• The lower and upper limit memory channels must be within the same frequency band.

• The lower and upper limit memory channels must not register the lower and upper channels in reverse.

• The PMS memory channel must not register a skip memory channel.

Performing Programmable Memory Channel Scan

The programmable memory channel scan allows scanning a specified frequency range within the same frequency band.

1. Recall the PMS memory channel to which the lower limit (L

)

or upper limit (U££)

££

of the frequency is registered.

2. Press the [F] key, then press the [2](SCAN) key. Programmable memory channel scanning starts.

• During scanning, “P

” appears on the upper left side of the LCD.

££

• If the DIAL knob is rotated while scanning is in progress, the scanning will contin-

ue up or down in frequency according to the direction of the DIAL Knob rotation. If the scanner halts on an incoming signal, the back light will turn ON and the decimal point between the “MHz” and “kHz” digits of the frequency display will blink. Scanning will resume in about five seconds.

3. Press the PTT switch to cancel the scanning.

zIf the scan has paused on a signal, rotating the DIAL knob will cause scanning to resume

instantly.

zDuring scanning, the frequency may be changed only within the programmed frequency

range.

Functions to Use as Necessary

Using the Transceiver for Packet Communication

You can perform packet communication with your transceiver by connecting a TNC (Terminal Node Controller) using an optional Microphone Adapter (CT-44).

MIC/SP

TNC

CT-44

EAR

MIC

10 F

2 kΩ

After connecting the TNC to the transceiver, set the output signal level to the TNC by adjusting the sound volume level of your transceiver. Also, adjust the signal level input to your transceiver using the output level adjustment volume on the TNC (Input level cannot be adjusted on your transceiver).

When sending a vast volume of data, the transmission takes a longer time and the transceiver may be overheated. If the transmission is continued for a long time, the overheat prevention circuit will operate and the transmission power decreases. If the transmission is continued further, the transmission will be automatically stopped to prevent the transceiver from overheating and consequently malfunctioning. If the overheat prevention circuit has operated and then the transceiver returns to the receive mode, turn the transceiver off, or leave it in the receive mode until the temperature falls.

zSet the receive battery Save Function to “OFF” during packet communication by selecting [48

If you suspect malfunction

Check the following items before requesting a repair.

● The 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.

•The battery pack properly attached? Refer to “Installing the Battery Pack” on the Operating Manual and securely install 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 external power supply 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 or the E-DC-6 is approximately 12V.

● There is no sound.

•Is the level of squelch (or S meter squelch) set too high? Press the MONI/T-CALL switch and verify that you can hear white noise. Adjust the level of squelch (or S meter squelch) when receiving a weak signal.

•Is the volume low? While pressing the VOL key, rotate the DIAL 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 two-digit DG-ID.

● There 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 the PTT is pressed. Wait until signal being received stops and then press the PTT switch.

•Is the transmission frequency on a ham radio band? Transmission cannot be performed on the AM Radio Broadcast Band/ Short Wave Radio Band/ FM Radio Broadcast Band/ Air Band/ 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 FT-70DR/DE from operating at full capability.

● The keys or DIAL does not respond.

•Is the Key Lock or DIAL Lock on?

● The battery pack cannot be charged or 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-18B) or the rapid charge cradle (SBH-28). 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).

•Is the battery pack in use exhausted? If “CHGERR” appears on the LCD during the charging and the battery pack is not charged after a lapse of 10 or more hours, stop charging the battery pack immediately. The battery pack is presumed to be at the end of its service life, or defective. In this case, replace the battery pack with a new one.

•Charge the battery pack within the temperature range from +5 °C to +35 °C (+41 °F to +95 °F).
