PART 1 


















1. Basic Rules 


1.1 Status at Start Up 

Each time you tum the FM-8000 on it performs a 
self-test to check for proper operation. After the self-test 
is completed, the unit starts up with the previous 
settings of the folio wing Controls: 

• Channel mode 

• Channel number 

• Output power 

• Speaker on/off 

• Dimmer 

If the self-test detects equipment fault, error indications 
appear. For description and meaning of error indications, 
see page 3-3 in PART2. 

When the FM-8000 is tumed on it powers the DSC-8V 
(if connected). 

NOTE: When the power is tumed off while 
transmitting, scanning or dual watching, the last settings 
for the above-mentioned Controls are not memorized. 


1.2 Key Operation Rules 

Key input When entering a line of data, press each key within 5 

seconds of previous key. Otherwise, the FM-8000 will 
return control to the previous display screen. 

SHIFT key The SHIFT key altemates selection of primary and 

secondary functions. “SHIFT” appears on the LCD 
when the SHIFT key is pressed. You can select a 
secondary function while “SHIFT”’ is displayed, up to 5 
seconds after pressing the key.

1.3 Automatic Selection of Channe! 16 


1.3 Automatic Selection of Channel 16 


Channel 16 is automatically selected when the handset 
is hung in the hanger. 


1.4 Key Response Beep 


One short beep One short beep sounds to confirm acceptance of key 

input. 

Three Short beeps Three short beeps sound to indicate invalid key input or 

to inform the activation of time-out timer. 


1.5 Remote Control 


“REMOTE” 

indication 


• When the remote station RB-700 or the DSC 
Terminal DSC-8V (if connected) is in operation, the 
indication “REMOTE” appears on the LCD of the 
FM-8000. 


• Suppose that the FM-8000 has higher priority than 
the RB-700. When the handset of the RB-700 is 
picked up with the handset of the FM-8000 also 
picked up, the indication “REMOTE” on the 
FM-8000 blinks.

3.6 Ignoring Remote Control from RB-700 


IntrodllCtion The remote station RB-700 can be operated whenever 

the handset of the FM-8000 is hung. This is true even if 
the FM-8000 has higher priority than the RB-700. If 
you want the FM-8000 to retain priority with its hanset 
hung when it has priority over RB-700, follow the 
procedure shown below. 


To enter this mode Procedure 

1. Press the SHIFT key of the FM-8000 before hanging 
up the handset. 

2. Hang up the handset within five seconds. 

To quit this mode Pick up the handset, then hang it on the hanger. 


■ NOTE: When the handset of the remote station is 
picked up, “REMOTE” blinks on the LCD of the 
FM-8000 in this mode.

1. Self-test 


lntroduction The FM-8000 provides two types of self-tests: 

• Self-test at start up 

• Self-test in the test mode 

1.1 Self-test at Start Up 

When you turn on the FM-8000, it automatically 
conducts a self-test to check for proper operation. 

ContentS The devices checked in this self-test are: 

• Transmitter PLL 

• Receiver PLL 

• ROM in the CPU 

• RAM in the CPU, and 

• E 2 PROM. 

Starting Tum the power on. 

Result When the self-test is completed, the FM-8000 is ready 

for operation. If equipment fault is found, error 
indications appear on the LCD. Refer to page 3-3 in

2. Maintenance 


2.1 Regular Check 

Introduction The FM-8000 is designed and constructed to give the 

user many years of trouble-ffee performance. However, 
no machine can perform to the utmost of its ability 
without regular maintenance. For better performance: 

• Have a licensed radiotelephone technician check the 
transceiver and antenna before initial operation and 
once annually to ensure compliance with pertinent 
regulations. 


• A quarterly routine maintenance program should be 
established and should include at least the following: 


Item 

Check Point 

Connectors 

& Cables 

Check all connectors (antenna, power, handset, ground, etc.), 
cables and wires for proper seating, foreign material and 
corrosion. Wipe off any foreign material with a clean cloth. 
Replace wom parts. Carefully inspect the coaxial cable 
connected between the antenna and the transceiver for 
extemal damage. 

Transceiver 

Accumulated dust or dirt on the exterior surface and 
keyboard can be removed with a clean, soft cloth. Clean the 
LCD with lens tissue or soft cloth to prevent scratching. Do 

not use Chemical solvents to clean the transceiver. They 
may harm plastic, paint and markings. 

Antenna 

Inspect the antenna insulators for corrosion. Check condition 
of soldered connections. Remove salt deposits with fresh 
water. 

Power 

Supply 

The FM-8000 is powered by 24VDC +30%, -10% power. 
Confirm that the power supply is operating within this rating. 
Check battery terminals and ship’s mains switchboard for 
proper seating and corrosion. 

Fuses 

Fuse holders are subject to corrosion which increases circuit 
resistance. Fuses should be removed from their holders, 
inspected, and cleaned of any accumulation of dirt or 
corrosion. 


PART 2 



3. Troubleshooting 


3.1 Troubleshooting List 

Introduction The cause of most VHF operating problems is the 

antenna/antenna feeder or power supply, so those are 
the first places to check if there is trouble. 


& WARNING 


Do not open the cover of the equipment. 


This equipment uses high voitage electricity which 
can shock, burn, or cause death.Only qualified 
personnel should work inside the equipment.

Automatic power 
reduction function 


Output power is automatically reduced to 6 W when the 
temperature at the power amplifier is high, to protect 
the final stage transistors. “HI” indication blinks when 
power is reduced. 



Wait until the unit cools down (“HI” doesn’t blink when 
PTT is pressed) before resuming operation.

4. Replacement of Fuse 


Introduction 


A CAUTION 

Use the correct fuse. 

Use of the wrong fuse can cause fire or 
equipment damage. 


To protect the unit from reverse polarity and equipment 
fault, two 10A fuses are provided in snap-in holders on 
the power cable. If a fuse blows, find the cause of the 
problem before replacing it. Never use a fuse rated 
more than 10A since it may cause serious damage 
to the equipment.
