           BASIC OPERATION OF THE TRANSCEIVER
Important! - Before turning on the radio the first time, confirm that the power con-
nections have been made correctly and that a proper antenna is connected to the
antenna jack.

Switching Power ON/OFF
 Turn the VOL/PWR knob turn on the radio. The display will become illumi-
  nated.
 Press the [ ]/[ ] button to choose the desired operating channel. A channel
  name will appear on the display. If you want to select an operating channel from
  a different group, press the PF (Programmable Function) button which is pro-
  grammed to the Group Up/Down feature to select the group you want before
  selecting the operating channel. See page 7 for more information on the Pro-
  grammable Function keys.

Setting the Volume
 Turn the VOL/PWR knob clockwise to increase the volume, and counterclock-
  wise to decrease it.

Transmitting
 To transmit, monitor the channel and make sure it is clear.
  THIS IS AN FCC REQUIRMENT!
 Press the PF button which is programmed to the Monitor feature to listen for
  channel activity.
 When receiving a call, transmit only after the incoming call ends. The radio
  cannot receive a call and transmit simultaneously.
 Press the PTT switch.
 If the channel is clear, the TX/BUSY indicator will glow red. The radio is now
  transmitting. While holding in the PTT switch, speak across the face of the micro-
  phone in a clear and normal voice. For best transmission, hold the microphone
  about 1-1/2 to 2 inches away from your mouth. Release the PTT switch to receive.
 If the Busy Channel Lockout feature has been programmed on a channel, the
  radio will not transmit when a carrier is present. Instead, the radio will generate
  a short beep three times and indicate “* ERROR *” on the display. Release the
  PTT switch and wait for the channel to be clear of activity.
 If CTCSS or Digital Coded Squelch (DCS) Lockout has been programmed on a
  channel, the radio can transmit only when there is no carrier being received or
  when the carrier being received includes the correct CTCSS tone or DCS code.

                                                                                      Vertex Standard Co., Ltd.


                                                                         FCC ID: K6610613030/IC ID: 511B-10613030




           BASIC OPERATION OF THE TRANSCEIVER
Automatic Time-Out Timer
If the selected channel has been programmed for automatic time-out, you must limit
the length of each transmission. While transmitting, a beep will sound 10 seconds
before time-out. Another beep will sound just before the deadline; the red “TX”
indicator will disappear and transmission will cease soon thereafter. To resume trans-
mitting, you must release the PTT switch and wait for the “penalty timer” to expire
(if you press the PTT switch before this timer expires, the timer restarts, and you will
have to wait another “penalty” period)

Key Lock
In order to prevent accidental frequency change or inadvertent transmission, various
aspects of the VX-2200’s keys may be locked out.
To activate the Locking feature, press and hold in the [P1] key while turning the
radio on. To disable the Locking feature, repeat this power-on procedure.


                         ADVANCED OPERATION
Programmable Function (PF) Buttons
The VX-2200 Series includes six Programmable Function (PF) Buttons. The PF
button functions can be customized, via programming by your VERTEX STAN-
DARD dealer, to meet your communications/network requirements. Some features
may require the purchase and installation of optional internal accessories. The pos-
sible PF button programming features are illustrated below, and these functions are
explained on the pages to follow. For further details, contact your VERTEX STAN-
DARD dealer. For future reference, check the box next to the function that has been
assigned to each PF button on your particular radio, and keep it handy.
