Wi Before operating the transceiver @ Points to Note Before Transmitting
Many wireless stations use frequencies adjacent to the ham bands for
@ Attention business purposes. Be mindful when transmitting near them.
+ Do not remove the case or touch the interior components. Even when amateur stations obey radio laws, unexpected jamming can
occur.
Tampering can cause equipment trouble. : ; . : :
Pay sufficient attention during mobile operation.
- Do not use or keep the transceiver where it is exposed to direct
sunlight. dusty places, or near sources of heat.

@ Points to Note for Using an External Power Supply
* Use a 4.0 V-15.0 BC power supply as an external power supply.
* When connecting the power supply to the transceiver, use an
optional DC cable for base station (EDC-37). Connect the cable to
the DC jack on the side of the transceiver.
* When the power is supplied from a cigarette socket of a car, use the
cigarette lighter cable (EDC-43) or the cigarette lighter cable with
filter (EDC-36). Use the cigarette lighter cable with filter (EDC-36)
during mobil operation to prevent noise.
+ Turn the power off when connecting or disconnecting the DC cable.

Turn the transceiver power off before recharging
the battery pack.
Disconnect the EDC-93/94 from the outlet while
not using it.
Never charge battery packs of other
manufacturers with this charger.
The required recharging time depends on the
condition and model of battery pack. Refer to the
instruction manual of the battery pack.
Never short-circuit the recharging terminals of
this recharger with metal objects, etc. The
charger can be damaged.
The EDC-93/94 does not work when the voltage
from the wall outlet is extremely low.

3 Memory Channel and Call Channel
3-1 Memory (MR) Channel
The Memory channel is the frequency called up and operated in the
Memory mode. The DJ-V5 has 200 memory channels, and each
channel has a memory channel number. You can program these
channcls to enable quick and easy recall of frequencies and memory
settings.
Note: It is not possible to increase the number of memory
channels,

Mi Packet Operation
Packet operation is used for data communication (from a computer, etc.).
@ Packet Operation Connections
Reference: — Connect the packet communication TNC (Terminal
Node Controller) terminals to the SP (@ 3.5 mii plug)
and MIC ( @ 2.5 mm plug) connectors on the top of the
transceiver.
+ Input level adjustment : The transceiver has no MIC
level adjustment circuit. Adjust the level on the TNC
side.
* Output level adjustment ; Use the volume dial on the
top of the transceiver.
, 3.5@PLUG
3.5V"
* Power is supplied from internal 3.5¥ line through a 100 () resistor.
AN Caution: « Refer to the TNC's instruction manual when
connecting the TNC unit to other devices
(personal computer etc.). If the transceiver, TNC
unit and connected personal computer are too
close together, noise between them may cause
interference.
+ Turn the battery save function off during packet
operation.
- Confirm your frequency and your communicating
partner's frequency. If the frequencies are OFF,
the number of retries will be high, or
communications may not be possible at all.
* Operate up to 1200 bps.
Mi Cloning
Using the cloning function. all setting information of one DJ-V5
(master) can be transferred to another DJ-V5 (slave).
1. Connect the mic jacks on both the master and slave transceiver.

2. Turn on the power of both transceivers while the LAMP key is
held down.
"CLONE" appears on the display of both transceivers.
3. Press the MONI (SQL) key on the master transceiver.
"TX (}" appears on the master transceiver's display, and
"RX 1" on the slave transceiver's display.
4. "PASS" appears on the both displays if the cloning completes Note: - Do not disconnect the cable while cloning.
correctly. + All data in the slave transceiver will be updated if
cloned. Be sure you want to change evrything
before cloning.
fj f 5 4 ‘ Do not press any key when transmitting data.
- If you want to clone the data to other transceivers, after
completing one cloning operation, connect the master
transceiver to another slave transceiver. and press the MONI
(SQL) key on the master transceiver again.
- To return transceivers to normal use, turn the power off, then
back on.
If incorrect data is transmitted in cloning, "ERROR" appears on
both transceivers’ displays.
