To connect the transceiver to an appropriate regulated
DC power supply, use an optional PG-2W DC cable.
1 Confirm that the power of both the transceiver and
the DC power supply is OFF.
2 Connect the optional PG-2W DC cable to the DC
power supply; the red lead to the positive (+)
terminal, and the black lead to the negative (–)
terminal.
3 Connect the barrel plug on the DC cable to the
DC IN jack of the transceiver.
While a DC power supply is connected with the DC IN
jack, the transceiver automatically initiates charging the
PB-43N Ni-MH battery pack.
Note:
◆ If the DC power supply voltage is below 12.0 V DC, you may not
be able to charge the PB-43N Ni-MH battery pack.
◆ The supply voltage must be between 12.0 V and 16.0 V to
prevent damaging the transceiver. If the input voltage exceeds
approximately 16.5 V, warning beeps sound and “DC ERR”
appears. Remove the DC IN jack plug immediately.
◆ If the DC power supply voltage is above 14.5 V DC and “ ”
(High Power) is selected, the “ ” icon blinks and the output
power is gradually reduced to “ ” level (Medium Power)
