2) Go to the

Rf Freqs (MHz/KHz)

dialog box and select the TX frequency in MHz in the upper box

by clicking its left drag down button,

then click the hundreds MHz you require (e.g.

156

for 156 MHz)

3) Select now the decimal TX frequency in KHz by clicking the right drag down button, then point the decimal frequency you need (e.g.

800,00

will select 156,800.00 MHz)

4) Now that you have selected the whole TX frequency, you have three choices:

If you are programming a simplex channel

(same RX and TX frequency), click the

Rx freq = Tx freq

button: The RX frequency

will be immediately set to the just programmed TX one

If you are programming a duplex channel

(RX frequency different than the TX one), go to RX box and set up the hundreds MHz

and the decimal RX frequency performing the same operation described in steps 2) and 3)

If you are programming a one way channel

(only RX or only TX), tick either

Only RX

Only TX

checkboxes. The TX or the RX

frequency will disappear accordingly

You can’t check both the

Only RX

and

Only TX

checkboxes. If you don’t want to program a particular channel, just skip its programming

as explained in the note in step 1).

5) To select the TX output power go to

RF power level

box and select either the

Low

High

radio button for

that channel depending on your choice (in the example we have chosen

Low

6) Select the channel bandwidth (either 25 or 12.5 KHz) by clicking the

Ch. spacing

button until you’ll see

your choice on it (the figure shows 12.5 KHz)

7) If you want to add the channel to the scan list, go to

Scan/Priority channel

box and tick the

Add to Scan

List

checkbox. In this case, the

Priority

checkbox will be immediately available. Tick it if you want to

designate the channel as priority one

Obviously, you can designate only one priority channel. If you already did that with another channel, a
message will warn you until you won’t remove the checkbox from the former priority channel

If you don’t tick the priority checkbox in all the programmed channels, the user has the possibility to define the priority channel with the
channel knob as described in the user’s manual

8) You have now programmed the basic channel specifications in the transceiver. However, depending on your customer’s requirements,

you may need to program other channels and/or add CTCSS/DCS and/or Selective Call facilities and/or other options. You have three
options:

If you need to program the basic parameters of additional channels

, go to step 9) (CTCSS/DCS, Selective Call and other options

will be further added as we’ll describe).

If you already have programmed the basic parameters of all the needed channels, but you still need to add the CTCSS/DCS
and/or Selective Call facilities and/or other options,

go to the appropriate paragraph/chapter: 3.7 for CTCSS/DCS and/or

Chapters 4 & 5 (the whole chapters) for Selective call and/or chapters 4 & 6 (the whole chapters) for other options

If you already have programmed the basic parameters of all the needed channels and you don’t need to add any CTCSS/DCS
and/or Selective Call facilities and/or other options

(i.e. you have complete the programming), go to chapter 7.1 in order to

transfer the program to the unit.

9) If you need to add/modify/delete new channels, you have two convenient options:

If you need to create a new channel which has completely different parameters

, press

Add

and go back to step 1)

If you need to program a new channel that only slightly differs between the current one

you can save time by pressing the

Chann. Clone

. You’ll create a new channel with the
