OPERATION
■ Turning power ON
q Push [POWER] to turn power ON.
w If the repeater is programmed for a power on pass-
word by an Icom Dealer, input digit codes directly.
• The keys in the table below can be used for password
input.
• The repeater detects numbers in the same block as
identical. Therefore “01234” and “56789” are the same.
e When the “PASSWORD” indication does not clear
after inputting 4 digits, the input code number may
be incorrect. Turn power off and start over in this
case.
