Operation

Preliminary Steps

Install a charged battery pack onto the transceiver, as described previously.

Screw the supplied antenna onto the Antenna jack. Never attempt to operate this transceiver without an antenna connected.

If you have a Speaker/Microphone, we recommend that it not be connected until you are familiar with the ba- sic operation of the VX-410/-420.

Operation Quick Start

Turn the top panel’s VOL/

PWR knob clockwise to turn on the radio on.

Turn the top panel’s CH selec-

tor knob to choose the desired operating channel.

Rotate the VOL/PWR knob to

set the volume level. If no sig- nal is present, press and hold in the Soft key assigned to “MONITOR” for more than 1

seconds; background noise will

now be heard, and you may use this to set the VOL/ PWR knob for the desired audio level.

Press and hold in the Soft key assigned to “MONITOR” for more than 1 seconds (or press the MONITOR key twice) to quiet the noise and resume nor- mal (quiet) monitoring.

To transmit, monitor the chan- nel and make sure it is clear.

THIS ISAN FCC REQUIRMENT!
To transmit, press and hold in the PTT switch. Speak into the microphone area of the front panel grille (lower left-hand

corner) in a normal voice level. To return to the Re- ceive mode, release the PTT switch.

If a Speaker/Microphone is available, remove the plas- tic cap and its two mounting screws from the right side of the transceiver, then insert the plug from the Speaker/ Microphone into the MIC/SP jack; secure the plug us- ing the screws supplied with the Speaker/Microphone. Hold the speaker grille up next to your ear while re- ceiving. To transmit, press the PTT switch on the Speaker/Microphone, just as you would on the main transceiver’s body.

Note:Save the original plastic cap and its mounting screws. They should be re-installed when not us- ing the Speaker/Microphone.
