Power connection

To minimize voltage drop and avoid blowing the vehicle’s fuses, connect the supplied DC power cable directly to the battery terminals. Do not attempt to defeat or bypass the DC cable fuse - it is there to protect you, your transceiver, and your vehicle’s electrical system.
Warning!
Never apply AC power to the power cable of the FTM-3207DR/DE, nor DC voltage greater than 15.8 Volts. When replacing the fuse, only use a 25-A (20-A, European version) fuse. Failure to observe these safety precautions will void the Limited Warranty on this product.
r Before connecting the transceiver, check the voltage at the battery terminals while rev-
ving the engine. If the voltage exceeds 15 Volts, adjust the vehicle’s voltage regulator before proceeding with installation.
r Connect the RED power cable lead to the POSITIVE (+) battery terminal, and the
BLACK power cable lead to the NEGATIVE (–) terminal. If you need to extend the
power cable, use #12 A WG or larger insulated, stranded copper wire. Solder the splice connections carefully, and wrap the connections thoroughly with insulating electrical tape.
r Before connecting the cable to the transceiver, verify the voltage and polarity at the
voltage at the transceiver end of the DC cable, using a DC voltmeter. Now connect the transceiver to the DC cable.

Using the convenient Digital C4FM feature

ApplicationforFCC/IC
FCCID:K6620754X50IC:511B-20754X50

About the Digital Group ID (DG-ID) feature

1. Digital Group ID (DG-ID) function allows communications with only the specific group members using the two-digit ID numbers. The desired DG-ID number from 00 to 99 is set in advance by all the group members. This ID number may be set separately for transmit and receive, when the same ID number is set for both transmit and receive, only group members with the same ID number will be heard. This feature may be used to communicate only with group members that have the same DG-ID number. The GM function may also be utilized to automatically monitor whether or not group member stations with the same DG-ID number are operating within communication range.
The DG-ID number 00 detects signals with all ID numbers. Normally setting the ID number to “00” for both transmit and receive will permit reception of the signals from all other stations using the digital C4FM mode, regardless of the transmit DG-ID number settings of the other stations.
Also note that when the receive DG-ID number of your transceiver is set to a DG-ID number other than “00”, received signals that do not have the same DG-ID number may not be heard.
2. When accessing the C4FM digital repeater controlled by the DG-ID number, set the transmit DG-ID number of the FTM-3207DR/DE to that of the repeater input. Even in that case, if the receive DG-ID number of the FTM-3207DR/DE is set to “00”, all the downlink signals from the repeater may be received.

Communicating with the DG-ID feature

z Digital C4FM mode transceivers compatible with the DG-ID function are required in order to
utilize this function.
z If the firmware is not compatible with the DG-ID function, update the latest firmware to use the
DG-ID function. The latest firmware is available on the YAESU website

Scanning

DWN UP
ApplicationforFCC/IC
FCCID:K6620754X50IC:511B-20754X50

Basic Scanner Operation

Before activating the scanner, make sure that the Squelch is set to silence the back­ground noise when no signal is present. Scanning is not possible while the Squelch is open (if noise or signals are being heard).
Scanning may be started or stopped using the micro­phone [UP] or [DWN] button.
The following techniques are used for scanning: r in the VFO mode, press and hold either the [UP]
or [DWN] button for one second, to start upward or downward scanning of the band.
r In the Memory mode, press and hold either the
[UP]
or [DWN] button for one second to start chan­nel scanning toward a higher or lower-numbered memory channel, respectively.
r Scanning pauses when a signal opens the squelch, and the decimal point on the dis-
play will blink. You can choose one of three scan-resume modes (described later).
r
To halt the scan manually, the easiest way is to push the PTT switch on the microphone momentarily (no transmission will occur while you are scanning). The scan may also be halted manually by pressing the microphone [UP] or [DWN] button, or the [V/M(MW)] key.

Scan Resume Options

Select which of the three resume scan modes is to be performed after the scanning stops.
Note: For details, refer to the Advanced Manual (download from the Yaesu website).

Memory Skip Scanning

Memory channels which you do not want to receive can be skipped during scanning.
Note: For details, refer to the Advanced Manual (download from the Yaesu website).

Preferential Memory Scan

Set up a “Preferential Scan List” of channels which you can “flag” within the memory system.
Note: For details, refer to the Advanced Manual (download from the Yaesu website).

Programmable Memory Scan (PMS)

Using the dedicated PMS memory channels, only the frequencies within the specified frequency range will be scanned.
Note: For details, refer to the Advanced Manual (download from the Yaesu website).

Priority Channel Scanning (Dual Watch)

Scanning features include a two-channel scanning capability which allows you to operate on a VFO, Memory channel, or Home channel, while periodically checking a user defined Memory Channel for activity.
Note: For details, refer to the Advanced Manual (download from the Yaesu website).
