Introduction Congratulations! Now you are the owner of the most advanced state—of the—art VHF FM transceiver available today. Please read this manual carefully before attempting to operate your PCS—6000 transceiver. This will ensure that you obtain the maximum operating convenience and versatility. Unpack your PCS—6000 carefully and make sure that it is supplied with the standard accessories listed at page 14. Be sure to send in the warranty card.
—1— CAUTION BEFORE OPERATION 1. 2. 3. 4. Before connecting the unit to a power supply, make sure that you have the polarity correct. The red lead of the power cord should go to the positive (+) terminal of the power supply or battery. In mobile installations, the system must normally ~e negative—ground. That is, the negative terminal of the battery should be connected to the automobile chassis. Host modern cars and trucks are negatively grounded, but a few use positive grounding.
MAJOR FEATURES 1. C—MOS Microcomputer Control The built—in microcomputer employs the latest in CMOS technology, to provide you with unprecedented operating features. This microcomputer controls all of the scanning, channel selection, offset frequencies ,sub—audible tone operation and display functions. The lithium battery ensures that microcomputer information is stored even when power is removed. 2. Unprecedented Wide Frequency Coverage The PCS—6000 receives 118.000 to 173.
-OPERATING CONTROLS AND FUNCTIONS – (1) Power Switch: Push ‘ON’ Push ‘OFF’ switch. Pressing the button once will turn the power ON and pressing it again will turn the power off. (2) Volume Control: Turning the knob clockwise will increase the sound volume. (3) Tone Squelch (TSQ)/Squelch Control. This control is used to eliminate annoying background noise when no signal is present. To adjust the control properly for reception, first turn the knob counterclockwise until background noise is heard.
(8) Reverse Mode Indicator (REV): This indicator is lit when the reverse operation mode is in use. (See: Reverse mode operation Page 7) (9) Low Power Indicator (LOW): When the transmitter output is set at low power (5W— PCS—6000/IOW—PCS—6000H), this indicator comes on. In the high power mode (25W — PCS60OO/45W — PCS—6000H), this indicator is not lit.
(19)Memory Mode Indicator (M Mode): This indicator lights up when the PCS—6000 is in the memory mode. In this mode, the up/down keys function as memory address keys, and the scan key as memory scan key. When the indicator is not lit, the unit is in the up/down mode. (20)Function Indicator (F): This indicator will light up when the ‘F’ key (function key) is depressed, allowing each key to operate as indicated on each keytop.
5. Setting Shift Width and Direction: When ‘F’ indicator comes on after the ‘F’ ‘~witch pressed, pressing the ‘SHIFT’ key will indicate +(6) that means transmission occurs at 6UOkHz above the receiving frequency. Furthermore, when the ‘F’ indicator on, pressing the ‘SHIFT’ key will indicate —(5) that mean’; ‘transmission occurs at 600kHz below the receiving frequency. The plus and minus shift is not activated in the M. (Memory) Mode. Shift with other than 600Hz can he programmed to any optional value.
How To Store Frequencies in Memory: —Setting Receive Frequency and Tone Code Entry — a) Pressing the function (F) key and the program (PROG) key will set the unit in the program mode and the ‘AD’ blinks and indicates that you can write frequency in the MAO (memory bank A, address channel 0). b) Select the memory address desired from among 0 through 9 by the UP or DOWN key. c) Press the M MODE key and you will see that the receiving frequency display flickers.
After a round of procedures for storing the receiving and transmitting frequencies and tone code, the Memory Address Indicator flickers showing the next channel. By repeating the same procedures as above, you can store receive frequencies, receive tones, as well as transmit frequencies and transmit tones in the memory bank AD through A9 and memory bank BO through B 9 for a total of 20 channels.
Recalling Memory Channels 1) Calling ‘MAO The ‘MAO’(memory bank A, address (I channel) is called when the power is turned “ON” or when the program mode is released. If the ‘MAO’ has already been called by the ‘MAO’ key, the unit returns to the status before the MAO was pressed. When the MAO is already called by other key operation other than the MAO key, press the MAO key again to call MAO channel. 2) Memory Address Change: The MAO is called when the power is turned ‘ON’ or the program mode is released.
Memory Scanning Memory scanning is initiated by pressing the SCN key while the unit is in the memory mode.(M MODE is lit). The scan will start at the channel following the one indicated on the memory address. That is, if you are at memory address 5 and press the SCN, scanning will begin at address 6. — When Memory Bank “A” is indicated —Scanning occurs only in memory bank A. The sequence is; AOch, Alch, A2ch , A9ch, AOch, Alch,. — When Memory Bank “B” is indicated —Scanning occurs only in memory bank B.
Scanning Stop Scanning will be stopped, either in Memory Mode or UP/DOWN mode, by pressing any of the keys or the microphone PTT switch. To resume the ‘SCAN’ mode, press the ‘SCAN’ key. But be sure to note the following. I) Push either UP or DOWN key to stop the scanning. 2) Scanning will be stopped by pressing other keys than UP/DOWN key. In this case, any key other than UP/DOWN will perform the function marked on the key button.
DTMF MICROPHONE499—21* Model 499—21 in a Dynamic Microphone with 16 key encoder and multi function. This microphone is provided as a standard accessory for U.S. version. (1)To transmit, depress the Push—to—Talk (PTT) switch and speak slowly and clearly in your normal tone of voice with the microphone about two inches from your mouth. Depressing the PTT switch turns the TX indicator light on the LCD, indicating that the transmitter is in operation.
