4 Function and Operation
4.1 Transmitting Signal
Press [PTT-1]or[PTT-2]to transmit signals, icon ⑰turns red, and hand-mic light turns
grren.
Press [PTT-1]to transmit main working frequency signals, press [PTT-2]totransmit B band
frequency signals.
4.2 Receiving Signal
When the device receives same frequency signal with current working channel and the CTCSS
matches with each other’s, the radio will receive and send out the voice, and the icon ⑰
turns blue. If A band receives signals, hand-mic light turns green, while B band receives
signals, hand-mic lights turns blue.
4.3 Working Mode Switching
Short press 【#】 button to change the working mode to VFO frequency mode or Channel MODE. When it is
changed to VFO frequency mode, the icon ⑭ will show up as VHF; When it is changed to channel mode,the
icon ⑭ will show up as channel number.
4.4 Display Mode Switching
Short press 【EXIT】 key to turn on/off dual-band display. When turn off dual-band display, the
sub-frequency area will show are as system time.
4.5Frequency Changing and Repeater Frequency Setting
While under VFO mode, input frequencies manually via keypads, input 6 digits, the inputting is
[Link] this ,the input frequencies will be set to receiving and transmitting frequencies.
If need to use repeater to relay the signals, set the TX frequencies according to the repeater frequency
[Link]:Under VFO mode, long press 【1】 button, the frequency turns red, the input function
actives , and input 6 digits, so the inputting is done automatically. The input frequencies will set
to TX frequencies. Long press 【#】to exit TX frequency setting. Once the inputting is done , please
enter MENU list Save CH to save frequency to appointed channel.
Short press 【▲】/【▼】can switch preset working [Link] press 【▲】/【▼】is fast switching
function.
4.6Channel Switching
Under channel mode status, input channel number via keypads to switch to appointed channel
directly .Short press 【▲】/【▼】to switch to working channels one by one. Long press 【▲】/【▼】
is fast switching function.
4.7Air Band Receiving
When the working frequency is set within the range of 108-136MHz, the device enters aviation
frequency receiving mode.
The device is not allowed to transmit signals under aviation frequency band status.
4.8Frequency Detecting and Decoding (One-click Decoding)
【P1】/【P2】/【P3】is set to Freq Detect, and press these definable buttons while it is under standby
status. Then the device begins to detecting and decoding. This function cannot detect CTCSS and
anti-decoded [Link] 【PTT】button to exit.
If the frequencies are changing constantly before detecting actives, which means the nearby
electromagnetic environment is complicated, in order to avoid strong electromagnetic interference,please
choose proper detecting place. After detecting is done, press 【MENU】to save the detected frequency
and CTCSS/DCS to current channel, and press 【PTT】to exit, press 【EXIT】to re-detect. If detecting
result is standard CTCSS/DCS, it will show up as standard CTCSS/DCS. If the result is non-standard
CTCSS/DCS,it will show up as “23b”or “24b” plus a series of digits. After saving, if you want to
check the result, please check Menu List Mute Code.
4.9 FM function

accuracy.
Single radio measuring distance: when GPS is set successfully, press 【MENU】key,to set current
position as the starting,then move to other positions, once the GPS settles down, press 【#】key then
will show up the orientation and distance from the starting to the final position.
GPS sending: turn on GPS in menu list GPS ON-OFF-ON; or list Roger Beep-choose Send GPS . When GPS
is set successfully, press 【PTT】to send local longitude and latitude to receiving part. When the GPS
of receiving is turned on and set successfully, the receiving radio will show up the orientation and
distance of transmitting radio. While the GPS of receiving is turned off or be set unsuccessfully,the
receiving radio will show up the longitude and latitude of transmitting radio.
4.12Inputting Method
You can change relative characters via inputting method both in Menu list Personal ID and Menue
list CH Name.
4.12 .1 Delete Character
when in Person ID, the display content will be added blank characters automatically to 16
bytes( 2 bytes per Chinese character,1 byte per Digit/English letter/symbol). while in
Channel Name, the display content will be added blank characters automatically to 10 bytes.
You can move the cursor via 【▲】or【▼】to certain place, then press 【*】to delete the characters
before it.
