    PRECAUTIONS

    RWARNING RF EXPOSURE! This device emitsRadio Frequency (RF) energy. Extreme caution

    should be observed when operating this device. Iyou have any questions regarding RF exposure andsaety standards please reer to the Federal Com-munications Commission Oice o Engineering andTechnologys report on Evaluating Compliance withFCC Guidelines or Human Radio Frequency Electro-magnetic Fields (OET Bulletin 65).

    RWARNING HIGH VOLTAGE! NEVER touch anantenna or internal antenna connector during trans-mission. This may result in an electrical shock or burn.

    RWARNING! NEVER operate the transceiverwhile driving a vehicle. Sae driving requires your ullattentionanything less may result in an accident.

    RNEVER apply AC power to the [DC13.8V] socketon the transceiver rear panel. This could cause a reor damage the transceiver.

    RNEVER apply more than 16 V DC, such as a 24 Vbattery, to the [DC13.8V] socket on the transceiverrear panel. This could cause a ire or damage thetransceiver.

    RNEVER let metal, wire or other objects touch anyinternal part or connectors on the rear panel o thetransceiver. This may result in an electric shock or thiscould cause a re or damege the transceiver.

    RNEVER expose the transceiver to rain, snow orany liquids.

    DO NOT use or place the transceiver in areas withtemperatures below 10C (+14F) or above +60C(+140F). Be aware that temperatures on a vehiclesdashboard can exceed +80C (+176F), resulting in

    permanent damage to the transceiver i let there orextended periods.

    DO NOT place the transceiver in excessively dustyenvironments or in direct sunlight.

    DO NOT place the transceiver against walls or putanything on top o the transceiver. This will obstructheat dissipation.

    Place unit in a secure place to avoid inadvertent useby children.

    During mobile operation, NEVER place the trans-ceiver where air bag deployment may be obstructed.

    During mobile operation, DO NOT place the trans-

    ceiver where hot or cold air blows directly onto it.

    During mobile operation, DO NOT operate the trans-ceiver without running the vehicles engine. When thetransceivers power is ON and your vehicles engineis OFF, the vehicles battery will quickly become ex-hausted.

    Make sure the transceiver power is OFF beore start-ing the vehicle engine. This will avoid possible dam-age to the transceiver by ignition voltage spikes.

    During maritime mobile operation, keep the trans-ceiver and microphone as ar away as possible romthe magnetic navigation compass to prevent errone-ous indications.

    BE CAREFUL! The rear panel will become hot whenoperating the transceiver continuously or long peri-ods.

    BE CAREFUL! I a linear ampliier is connected, setthe transceivers RF output power to less than thelinear ampliers maximum input level, otherwise, thelinear amplier will be damaged.

    Use Icom microphones only (supplied or optional).Other manuacturers microphones have dierent pinassignments, and connection to the IC-7200 maydamage the transceiver.

    For U.S.A. onlyCaution: Changes or modiications to this trans-ceiver, not expressly approved by Icom Inc., couldvoid your authority to operate this transceiver underFCC regulations.

    Frequency copying

    The requency and operating mode in a memorychannel can be copied to the VFO.

    D Copying in memory mode

    This is useul or copying a memory channels con-tents (requency and operating mode) to a VFO whileoperating in memory mode.This is useul when searching or signals around amemory channel requency.

    NOTE: While operating in VFO mode, pushing andholding V/M or 1 sec. also copy the selectedmemory channels contents (requency and oper-

    ating mode) to a VFO.

    When you have changed the requency or operat-ing mode in the selected memory channel: Displayed requency and mode are copied. Programmed requency and mode in the mem-

    ory channel are not copied, and they remain inthe memory channel.

    q Push V/M to select memory mode.w Rotate [M-CH] to select the desired memory

    channel to be copied. I the RIT control indicator lights orange, push

    M-CH/RITSET . (p. 61)

    Set the requency or operating mode i required. appears i the selected memory channel is a

    blank channel (and does not have contents). In this

    case copying is not possible.

    Displayed requency and operating mode are copied.

    r To return to VFO mode, push V/M . Copied requency and operating mode appear in the

    display.

    You can return to VFO mode beore copyingthe requency and operating mode in step e.

    SCAN OPERATION

    ChannelsFor programmed scan:Program scan edge requencies into scan edge mem-ory channels P1 and P2. (p. 66)

    For memory scan:Program two or more memory channels except scanedge memory channels.

    Scan resume ON/OFF

    You can select the scan to resume or cancel whendetecting a signal in the set mode.Scan resume ON/OFF must be set beore operating ascan. See p. 78 or ON/OFF setting and scan resumecondition details.

    Scan speedScan speed can be selected rom 2 levels, high orlow, in the set mode. See p. 78 or details.

    Squelch condition

    Scan starts with squelch openFor programmed scan:

    When tuning step is 1 kHz or less:The scan continues until it is stopped manually withpushing SCAN , and does not pause* even i signalsare detected.* The scan is paused when the squelch is closed and

    then opened (scan resumes ater 10 sec. has passed

    when the scan resume is ON; scan is cancelled when

    OFF).

    When tuning step is more than 5 kHz:The scan pauses on each step when the scanresume is ON; not applicable when OFF.

    For memory scan:Scan pauses on each channel when the scan resumeis ON; not applicable when OFF.

    Scan starts with squelch closedScan stops when a signal is detected.I you set scan resume ON in the set mode, the scan

    pauses or 10 sec. when detecting a signal, thenresumes. When a signal disappears while scan ispaused, scan resumes 2 sec. later.

    NOTE: I the [RF/SQL] control unction is set asAUTO, the squelch is always open in SSB, CWand RTTY modes. (pgs. 4, 30, 75)
