8 ENHANCED COMMUNICATIONS FM DCS OPERATION Digital Code Squelch (DCS) is another FM application which allows you to ignore (not hear) unwanted calls. It functions the same way as CTCSS. The only differences are the encode/ decode method and the number of selectable codes. For DCS, you can select from 104 different codes listed in the table below. 1 Press [A/B] to select VFO A or VFO B. • "tA" or "tB" appears to show which VFO is selected. 2 Select a band. 3 Select an operating frequency. 4 Press [FM/ AM/ NAR] to select FM mode. • "FM" appears. 5 Turn the SQL control to adjust the squelch. 6 Press [•/ DCS/SEL] to switch the DCS function ON (or OFF). • "DCS" appears when the function is ON. You will hear calls only when the selected code is received. To answer the call, press [SEND] or press and hold Mic [PTT], then speak into the microphone. Skip steps 7 to 9 if you have already programmed the appropriate DCS code. Note: You cannot use DCS with the Tone or CTCSS functions. DCS CODE ID SCAN This function scans through all DCS codes to identify the incoming DCS code on a received signal. You may find this useful when you cannot recall the DCS code that the other persons in your group are using. 1 Press [FUNC], [•/ DCS/SEL]. • The current DCS code appears. 2 Press [SCAN/ SG.SEL] to activate the DCS Code ID scan. • "DCS" blinks and every DCS code is scanned. When the DCS code is identified, the transceiver stops scanning and the identified DCS ID is displayed. 7 Press [FUNC], [•/ DCS/SEL]. • The current DCS code appears. The default is 023. • Press [SCAN/ SG.SEL] to resume scanning. • Press [SCAN/ SG.SEL] to stop scanning while the DCS code ID scan is active. Note: Received signals are audible while scanning is in progress. 8 Turn the MULTI/ CH control to select the appropriate DCS code. • The available DCS codes are listed in the following table. 023 065 132 205 255 331 413 465 612 731 025 071 134 212 261 332 423 466 624 732 026 072 143 223 263 343 431 503 627 734 031 073 145 225 265 346 432 506 631 743 032 074 152 226 266 351 445 516 632 754 036 114 155 243 271 356 446 523 654 043 115 156 244 274 364 452 526 662 047 116 162 245 306 365 454 532 664 051 122 165 246 311 371 455 546 703 053 125 172 251 315 411 462 565 712 054 131 174 252 325 412 464 606 723 9 Press [FUNC], [•/ DCS/SEL] again to complete the setting. 36
