FCC ID: AFJ359800 Dual Band Transceiver

 

BASIC MANUAL DUAL BAND TRANSCEIVER i2730A i2730E This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation. WARNING: MODIFICATION OF THIS DEVICE TO RECEIVE CEL-

LULAR RADIOTELEPHONE SERVICE SIGNALS IS PROHIBITED UNDER FCC RULES AND FEDERAL LAW. FOREWORD Thank you for choosing this fine Icom product. The IC-2730A and IC-2730E vhf/uhf transceiver are designed and build with Icoms superior technology and craftsmanship combin-

ing traditional analog technologies. With proper care, this product should provide you with years of trouble-free operation. We thank you for making your IC-2730A or IC-2730E your transceiver of choice, and hope you agree with Icoms philos-

ophy of technology first. Many hours or research and devel-

opment went into the design of your IC-2730A or IC-2730E. EXPLICIT DEFINITIONS WORD R DANGER!

R WARNING!

CAUTION NOTE DEFINITION Personal death, serious injury or an ex-

plosion may occur. Personal injury, fire hazard or electric shock may occur. Equipment damage may occur. Recommended for optimum use. No risk of personal injury, fire or electric shock. i IMPORTANT READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS carefully and completely before using the transceiver. SAVE THIS INSTRUCTION MANUAL This in-

struction manual contains basic operating instructions for the IC-2730A or IC-2730E. SUPPLIED ACCESSORIES The following accessories are supplied with the transceiver. DC power cable Controller cable

(3.5 m:11.4 ft) Microphone

(HM-207) Spare fuse

(FGB 15 A) Microphone hanger PRECAUTIONS R DANGER HIGH VOLTAGE! NEVER touch an an-

tenna connector during transmission. This may result in an electrical shock or burn. R WARNING RF EXPOSURE! This transceiver emits Radio Frequency (RF) energy. Extreme caution should be ob-

served when operating this transceiver. If you have any ques-

tions regarding RF exposure and safety standards please refer to the Federal Communications Commission Office of Engineering and Technologys report on Evaluating Compli-

ance with FCC Guidelines for Human Radio Frequency Elec-

tromagnetic Fields (OET Bulletin 65). R WARNING! NEVER operate the transceiver while driving a vehicle. Safe driving requires your full attention anything less may result in an accident. R WARNING! NEVER operate the transceiver with an earphone or other audio accessories at high volume levels. Continuous high volume operation may cause a ringing in your ears. If you experience ringing, reduce the volume level or discontinue use. R WARNING! NEVER connect the transceiver to an AC outlet. This may pose a fire hazard or result in an electric shock. R WARNING! NEVER connect the transceiver to a power source of more than 16 V DC such as a 24 V DC. This could cause a fire or damage the transceiver. R WARNING! NEVER reverse the DC power cable po-

larity when connecting to a power source. This could damage the transceiver. R WARNING! NEVER cut the DC power cable between the DC plug and fuse holder. If an incorrect connection is made after cutting, the transceiver may be damaged. R WARNING! NEVER let metal, wire or other objects touch any internal part or connectors on the rear panel of the transceiver. This may result in an electric shock or this could cause a fire or damage the transceiver. R WARNING! NEVER operate or touch the transceiver with wet hands. This may result in an electric shock or may damage the transceiver. R WARNING! Immediately turn OFF the transceiver pow-

er and remove the power cable if it emits an abnormal odor, sound or smoke. Contact your Icom dealer or distributor for advice. CAUTION: NEVER expose the transceiver to rain, snow or any liquids. ii PRECAUTIONS (Continued) CAUTION: NEVER change the internal settings of the transceiver. This may reduce transceiver performance and/or damage to the transceiver. CAUTION: NEVER place the transceiver where normal operation of the vehicle may be hindered or where it could cause bodily injury. DO NOT operate the transceiver near unshielded electrical blasting caps or in an explosive atmosphere. DO NOT push the PTT when not actually desiring to trans-

mit. DO NOT use harsh solvents such as benzine or alcohol to clean the transceiver, as they will damage the transceivers surfaces. If the transceiver becomes dusty or dirty, wipe it clean with a soft, dry cloth. DO NOT use or place the transceiver in areas with tem-

peratures below 10C (+14F) or above +60C (+140F). Be aware that temperatures on a vehicles dashboard can exceed

+80C (+176F) in direct sunlight, resulting in permanent dam-

age to the transceiver if left there for extended periods. DO NOT place the transceiver in excessively dusty environ-

ments or in direct sunlight. DO NOT place the transceiver against walls or putting anything on top of the transceiver. This will obstruct heat dissipation. iii Place the transceiver in a secure place to avoid inadvertent use by children. During mobile operation, NEVER place the transceiver where air bag deployment may be obstructed. During mobile operation, DO NOT place the transceiver where hot or cold air blows directly onto it. During mobile operation, DO NOT operate the transceiver without running the vehicles engine. When the transceivers power is ON and your vehicles engine is OFF, the vehicles battery will soon become exhausted. Make sure the transceiver power is OFF before starting the vehicle engine. This will avoid possible damage to the trans-

ceiver by ignition voltage spikes. During maritime mobile operation, keep the transceiver and microphone as far away as possible from the magnetic navi-

gation compass to prevent erroneous indications. BE CAREFUL! The rear panel will become hot when op-

erating the transceiver continuously for long periods of time. Use Icom microphones only (supplied or optional). Other manufacturers microphones have different pin assignments, and may damage the transceiver.
