Vertex Standard VXA-710

VXA-710 SPIRIT OPERATING MANUAL

Low Battery Indication

As you battery discharges during use, the voltage will

gradually become lower. When the “ ” begins

blinking on the LCD dis-

play, the battery pack

must be recharged before

further use.

Avoid recharging Li-Ion batteries before the “Low Bat-

tery” indicator is observed, as this can degrade the

charge capacity of your Li-Ion battery pack. Vertex

Standard recommends that you carry an extra, fully-

charged pack with you so you will not lose communi-

cations capability due to a depleted Li-Ion battery.

This “deep cycling” practice will help to maintain

longer overall battery life after many recharging cycles.

AC Operation Using NC-72B/C

(Receiving only)

The VXA-710 may be operated from your house current

by use of the supplied NC-72B/C Battery Charger. The

NC-72B/C should only be used for reception, because it

is not capable of supplying sufficient current to support

transmission.

To use the NC-72B/C, turn the transceiver off, then plug

the miniature connector of the Battery Charger into the

EXT DC jack on the side of the radio. Now plug the Bat-

tery Charger into the wall outlet. You may now turn on the

transceiver.
