[. . . ] INSTRUCTION MANUAL UHF TRANSCEIVER i400PRO IMPORTANT READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS carefully and completely before using the transceiver. PRECAUTION RWARNING!Safe driving requires your full attention-- anything less may result in an accident. SAVE THIS INSTRUCTION MANUAL -- This instruction manual contains important operating instructions for the IC-400PRO UHF TRANSCEIVER. EXPLICIT DEFINITIONS DEFINITION Personal injury, fire hazard or electric shock RWARNING may occur. WORD NEVER connect the transceiver to a power source of more than 16 V DC. If an incorrect connection is made after cutting, the transceiver might be damaged. [. . . ] Note that CTCSS group mode is not private--anyone can receive your calls. The IC-400PRO is equipped with 51 CTCSS frequency for CTCSS GROUP MODE use. To temporarily hear all signals (including noise) push and hold [MONI]. Do not use CTCSS GROUP MODE if you want to hear signals on all channels. w Push [MONI] for 1 sec. r Push [DUP] to select "OFF" (group mode OFF). 5 Push [DUP] t Push [MONI] for 1 sec. to exit Set mode. · The under bar indicators disappear.

In case a frequency other than at left is used, sometimes the squelch system may not performed correctly. 16 6 SELCALL OPERATION I Calling operation D TX code channel selection The [MONI] (Call) key (in Function mode) enables you to change the TX code channel with [ ]/[ ] keys. 32 TX code channels can be pre-programmed into the IC-400PRO using the optional CS-400PRO CLONING SOFTWARE. To select a TX code channel: q While in Function mode, push [MONI] (Call) for 1 sec. to enter the TX code channel selection mode. · Push [O] (Bank/Func) for 1 sec. to enter the transceiver into Function mode. I General In addition to the group mode operation for silent stand-by, the SelCall operation is available. In Group mode operation, there are 51 ways to make an individual call with CTCSS frequencies versus 100, 000 ways to make an individual call with Selcall using 5tone. SelCall allows you to selectively call another unit that is operating on the same channel. SelCall can also call the entire group on that channel using group call code. The caller station code/name, status message, Answer Back function, automatic scan start function, etc. A variety of functions are available depending on the setting with the CS-400PRO CLONING SOFTWARE. See the help file for setting details. Push [MONI] for 1 sec. The TX code or TX code channel name (if programmed) is displayed. w Push [ ]/[ Push [ ] to select the desired TX code channel. ] or [ ] 17 SELCALL OPERATION 6 e Push [MONI] (Call) to set the TX code channel, and return to Function mode. D TX code number edit The [MONI] (Call) key (in Function mode) enables you to change the TX code contents within the allowable digits. The group call function works by allowing you to edit a special `group code' into the last 2 digits position of the SelCall ID code. To edit a TX code: q While in Function mode, push [MONI] (Call) for 1 sec. to enter the TX code channel selection mode. · Push [O] (Bank/Func) for 1 sec. · Push [ ]/[ ] to select the desired TX code channel, if desired. Push [MONI] 6 r Push [MONI] (Call) to transmit the code on the selected channel. Appears while transmitting Push [MONI] w Push [MONI] (Call) for 1 sec. [. . . ] r OPTIONAL CABLE (OPC-617) Connect an external modem unit, dimmer control, etc. t EXTERNAL SPEAKER JACK Connect a 4­8 (5 W) external speaker, if desired. When using self-tapping screws The universal mounting bracket supplied with your transceiver allows overhead mounting. · Mount the transceiver securely with the 4 supplied screws to a thick surface which can support more than 1. 5 kg.
