WIRELESS OPERATION (TM-D710GA ONLY)
If you also have a compatible KENWOOD handy transceiver, you may use it as a remote control for this mobile transceiver. You will
control one band on the mobile while sending DTMF tones to the other band from the handheld. This function is useful, for example,
when you want to control the mobile from a location outside your vehicle.
Note:
◆ As a remote control, you can also use a handy transceiver which does not have a remote control function but a DTMF function. However, you must manually send
DTMF tones for control code strings. Skip steps 1 and 3 in “PREPARATION”.
◆ The FCC rules permit you to send control codes only on the 440 MHz band.
PREPARATION
Let us assume band A (VHF) of the mobile transceiver will be
controlled.
On the handy transceiver:
1 Program a 3-digit secret number.
• For the programming method, see the instruction manual for the
handheld.
2 Select the transmit frequency on the UHF band.
3 Make the handheld enter Remote Control mode.
• For the method, see the instruction manual for the handheld. If
not described, consult your dealer.
On the mobile transceiver:
4 Enter Menu mode and access Menu 923.
5 Set the ID code to the same secret number you set on the
handy transceiver.
6 Select the receive frequency on band B (UHF).
• Match this frequency with the transmit frequency on the
handheld.
7 Select band A (VHF) as the TX band or Control band.
8 To cause the mobile to send a control acknowledgment to the
handheld, enter Menu 924 and set it to ON.
• DTMF tones which represent the secret number will be used as
an acknowledgment.
9 Turn the transceiver power OFF.
10 Press [REV] + Power ON to enter Remote Control mode.
• The (blink) and icons appear on the display.
• To exit Remote Control operation, turn the transceiver power
OFF, then press [REV] + Power ON again.
CONTROL OPERATION
While in Remote Control mode, the DTMF keys of the handheld
will function as shown in the table below. Each time you press
the desired key, the handheld will automatically enter transmit
mode and send the corresponding command to the mobile.
Note: If using a handheld without a remote control function, manually send
“AXXX#YA#” where “XXX” is a 3-digit secret number and “Y” is a single-digit
control command. If you do not add ”A#” to the end, you can skip sending
“AXXX#” next time; however, the mobile may be accidentally controlled by other
stations.
