3 GETTING STARTED 3-1 MAKING THE AR-DV1 READY FOR OPERATION 3-1-1 CONNECT THE ANTENNA For reception on the all bands, connect the antenna to the antenna connector on the rear panel of the AR-DV1. 3-1-2 CONNECT POWER Connect the power to the DC power jack on the rear panel of the AR-DV1. A supplied AC power adapter (part number: AA8600) or a regulated DC power supply (10.7 ~ 16.0 V with capacity 1A) may be used. Do not connect to a 24 V system. The clock will be displayed on the LCD.
Opening screen (Note: The version number may vary.) After the opening screen appears on the LCD, the main screen will then be displayed. It will take approximately eight seconds before the main screen appears. This is a normal process to initialize the AR-DV1. To power off the AR-DV1, push and hold the power switch on the front panel for about two seconds. After “AR-DV1 SHUTDOWN” message is displayed, the receiver will automatically power off.
3-4 SQUELCH CONTROL To change the squelch level, rotate the squelch control knob clockwise to increase, and counterclockwise to decrease. The squelch level will be indicated on the LCD. After setting the squelch level, the LCD will return to original display. While squelch opens, “B” (busy) will appear in reverse contrast on the middle left of the LCD. 3-5 VFO SELECTION The AR-DV1 has three (3) VFOs identified as “VFO-A”, “VFO-B” and “VFO-Z” on the middle left of the LCD.
The AR-DV1 has an auto mode setting, which in most cases, will automatically select the proper receive mode and frequency steps. 3-5-1 TUNING FREQUENCY 3-5-1-1 ENTERING A FREQUENCY USING THE NUMERIC KEYPAD While in VFO mode, enter the required frequency using MHz format followed by the [ENT] key. (Example) Frequency entry of 81.3 MHz Press the [8] key. Press the [1] key. Press the [.] key. Press the [3] key. Press the [ENT] key. (Example) Frequency entry of 1.134 MHz (1134 kHz) Press the [1] key.
3-5-1-4 VFO COPY In VFO mode, press the [F] key and then the [PASS] key to copy between two VFO’s frequencies. (While receiving frequency on VFO-Z, copy it to VFO-B) The original VFO must always be VFO-Z. The destination can either be VFO-A or VFO-B, which can be selected by rotating the dial knob. To confirm selection, press the [ENT] key. 3-6 RECEIVE MODE Due to the necessities of signal bandwidth, channel occupancy, and transmission efficiency, different receive modes are used by various services.
In the absence of a signal, the background white noise may appear quite loud. For easier listening, the squelch control should be rotated clockwise until the background noise disappears; this should be carried out while no signal is present. The point at which the background noise is cancelled is known as the threshold point. Do not advance the squelch control more than necessary or the receiver will appear to be desensitized and weaker signals will be missed.
Note: Auto-mode is cancelled as soon as the receive mode is changed. 3-6-2 RECEIVE MODE SELECTION Any receive mode may be selected at any frequency within the receiver’s frequency coverage. To access the receive mode menu, press the [MODE] key. The following modes are available: AUTO, FM, AM, SAH, SAL, USB, LSB, CW, DSTR, YAES, DMR, D-CR, dPMR, P-25, ALINC. AUTO mode AM mode DMR mode Rotate the dial knob to select the desired receive mode. Press the [ENT] key to confirm selection.
3-7 CHANGING THE FREQUENCY STEP The specification for channel occupancy, step (separation) and mode are decided by and allocated by the Departments of Governments following international discussions. The allocation of frequency bands are not the same all over the world and channel separation (step) varies from band to band. As an example, the channel separation (step) for the MW (medium wave) band in the U.S.A. is 10 kHz, and is 9 kHz in Europe and Japan.
Typical examples of receive mode and IF bandwidth are: 200 kHz – VHF FM broadcast 30 kHz, 100 kHz – Wireless microphone, etc. (30 kHz for satellite FAX, too) 15 kHz – PMR, amateur band, etc. FM 6 kHz may also be used 6 kHz – VHF/UHF airband, short wave broadcast, medium & long wave, PMR, etc. 3 kHz – Short wave amateur band, short wave utility such as oceanic airband etc.
4 ADDITIONAL SETTINGS 4-1 AGC (AUTOMATIC GAIN CONTROL) AGC is available in following AM modes: AM, SAH, SAL, USB, LSB and CW To change the AGC parameter setting, press the [F] key and then the [5] key.
