EXPLICIT DEFINITIONS The explicit definitions below apply to this instruction manual. WORD R WARING CAUTION NOTE DEFINITION Personal injury, fire hazard or electric shock may occur. No risk of personal injury, fire or electric shock. Icom, Icom Inc. [. . . ] e Push [A·FUNC], then push [8·SET] to enter into the channel name programming mode. · The character to be edited flashes. · Usable characters are; A­Z, 0­9, "space", +, ­, =, , /, [, and ] y Push [#·ENT ] to fix and exit the channel name programming mode. I Memory transferring Memory (call) channel contents can be transferred to the VFO or to another memory channel. D Memory/call VFO q Select the memory (call) channel to be transferred: Push [C·MR] ([B·CALL]) to select memory (call) mode. Push [Y]/[Z] to select the memory channel. · When [VOL] is assigned as "dial, " rotate [VOL] to select the memory channel. to transfer the se- lected memory contents to the VFO. · VFO mode is selected automatically. 25 MEMORY PROGRAMMING 6 D Memory/call call/memory q Select the memory (call) channel to be transferred: Push [C·MR] ([B·CALL]) to select the memory (call) mode. Push [Y]/[Z] to select the memory channel. · When [VOL] is assigned as "dial, " rotate [VOL] to select the memory channel. 50) w Push [A·FUNC], then push [C·MR] momentarily. · "--" and "X" flashes. e Push [Y]/[Z] to select the target memory. · When "dial" is assigned [VOL], rotate [VOL] to select the memory channel. 50) r Push [A·FUNC], then push [C·MR] for 1 sec. · Memory mode is selected and the contents are transferred to the target memory. D Clearing a memory q Push [A·FUNC], then push [C·MR] to enter the memory transfer mode. · "X" and a memory channel number flash. · When [VOL] is assigned as "dial, " rotate [VOL] to select the memory channel. e Push [A·FUNC], then push [C·MR] momentarily. r Push [A·FUNC], then push [C·MR] for 1 sec. · Perform step e and r operations within 1. 5 sec, otherwise the memory clearing is cancelled and the transceiver returns to the memory mode. t Push [D·CLR] to return to regular operation. 26 I Programming a DTMF code The transceiver has 5 DTMF memory channels (d0 to d4) for storage of often-used DTMF codes of up to 24 digits. q Push [A·FUNC], then push [0·DTMF-M] to 7 DTMF MEMORY enter the DTMF memory. · One of "d0" to "d4" appears. to enter the DTMF programming mode. · "_ _ _ _ _" appears. r Push the digit keys, [A·FUNC], [B·CALL], [C·MR], [D·CLR], [·OPTION] and [#·ENT ] to enter the desired DTMF code. · A maximum of 24 digits can be input. · [·OPTION] enters as "E", [#·ENT ] enters as "F. " · If a digit is mistakenly input, push [SQL] or [PTT] momentarily then repeat from step q. t Push [SQL] or [PTT] to input the digits and exit the DTMF pro- gramming mode. · Programmed DTMF codes sound when [SQL] is pushed to exit. 27 DTMF MEMORY 7 I Transmitting a DTMF code D Using a DTMF memory channel q Push [A·FUNC], then push [0·DTMF-M] to enter the DTMF mem- ory. w Rotate [VOL] to select the desired channel. r While pushing [PTT], push [SQL] to transmit the selected DTMF memory. · After the DTMF code is transmitted, the transceiver returns to receive automatically. D Manual DTMF code transmission While pushing [PTT], push digit keys, A­F to transmit a DTMF code manually. USING INITIAL SET MODE I DTMF transmission speed When slow DTMF transmission speeds are required with DTMF memory transmission (as for some repeaters), the transceiver's rate of DTMF transmission can be adjusted. q While pushing [Y] and [Z], turn the power F MR TX on to enter INITIAL SET MODE. e Rotate [VOL] to select the desired DTMF transmission speed. F MR TX · Four speeds are available: "1" (100 msec. r Push [#·ENT ] to exit INITIAL SET MODE. 28 I Scan types PROGRAMMED SCAN Band edge 1A 2A 3A Scan edges Scan Jump 1b 2b 3b 8 SCAN OPERATION Band edge MEMORY (SKIP) SCAN SKIP Mch 1 Mch 0 Mch 99 Mch 10 Mch 9 Mch 8 Mch 7 Mch 2 Mch 3 Mch 4 Mch 5 Mch 6 SKIP PRIORITY WATCH Priority memory channel watch VFO frequency 145. 20 MHz 5 sec.

This scan is useful for checking for signals within a specific frequency range such as repeater output frequencies, etc. w Push [A·FUNC], then push [5·SCAN] to start the scan, then a selected scan edge appears as "P1", "P2", "P3" or "AL. " · To change the scan edge, push [A·FUNC] then push [8·SET] several times until the desired scan edge appears. · "AL" for full scan, "P1", "P2" and "P3" for programmed scan between the programmed scan edge channels as "1A"­"1b", "2A"­"2b" and "3A"­"3b". [. . . ] This will cause a cloning error. 54 13 OPTIONAL UNIT D Optional UT-108 installation q Remove the optional connecter access cover (named 2251 OPT sheet). · Insert a screwdriver into the hollow of the chassis, then lift and take away the cover. NEVER attempt to remove the optional connector cover using your finger nails, this may result in injury. e Remove the paper backing of 2251 OPT sheet supplied as an accessory. [. . . ]
