r To remove the battery, turn the radio off and remove any protective cases. Open

the Battery Pack latch on the bottom of the radio, then slide the battery down-
ward and out from the radio while holding the Belt Clip.

r As the battery discharges during use, the voltage gradually becomes lower. When

the battery voltage reaches 6.3 volts, substitute a freshly charged battery and
recharge the depleted pack. The TX/BUSY indicator on the top of the radio will
blink red  when the battery voltage is low.

r Avoid recharging Ni-Cd batteries often with little use between charges, as this

can degrade the charge capacity. We recommend that you carry an extra, fully-
charged pack with you so the operational battery may be used until depletion
(this “deep cycling” technique promotes better long-term battery capacity).

r To install the battery, hold the transceiver with your left hand, so your palm is

over the speaker and your thumb is on the top of the belt clip. Insert the battery
pack into the battery compartment on the back of the radio while tilting the Belt
Clip outward, then close the Battery Pack Latch until it locks in place with a
“Click.”

r Install a charged battery pack onto the transceiver, as described previously.
r Screw the supplied antenna onto the Antenna jack. Never attempt to operate this

transceiver without an antenna connected.

r If you have a Speaker/Microphone, we recommend that it not be connected until

you are familiar with the basic operation of the VX-210A.

r Turn the top panel’s VOL/PWR knob clock-

wise to turn on the radio on.

r Pull and turn the top panel’s CH selector knob

to choose the desired operating channel.

r Rotate the VOL/PWR knob to set the volume

level. If no signal is present, press and hold in
the ACC button (the lower button on the left
side) for more than 1 second (when “MONI-
TOR” is assigned to the ACC button); back-
ground noise will now be heard, and you may
use this to set the VOL/PWR knob for the de-
sired audio level.

r Press and hold in the  ACC button (when

“MONITOR” is assigned to the ACC button)
for more than 1 second (or press the ACC but-
ton twice) to quiet the noise and resume normal
(quiet) monitoring.

r To transmit, press and hold in the PTT switch.

Speak into the microphone area of the front
panel grille (lower left-hand corner) in a nor-
mal voice level. To return to the Receive mode,
release the PTT switch.

r If a Speaker/Microphone is available, remove the plastic cap and its two mount-

ing screws from the right side of the transceiver, then insert the plug from the
Speaker/Microphone into the MIC/SP jack; secure the plug using the screws
supplied with the Speaker/Microphone. Hold the speaker grille up next to your
ear while receiving. To transmit, press the PTT switch on the Speaker/Micro-
phone, just as you would on the main transceiver’s body.

Note:Save the original plastic cap and its mounting screws. They should be re-

installed when not using the Speaker/Microphone.

The VX-210A provides a programmable “ACC” (Accessory) button. The ACC
button’s functions can be customized (set to any of a variety of functions), via pro-
gramming by your VERTEX STANDARD dealer, to meet your communications/
network requirements. The particular function to be activated or disabled may re-
quire a simple press of the ACC button, or it may require that the ACC button be
pressed and held in for one second (or more). See the discussion below.
   Some features may require the purchase and installation of optional internal ac-
cessories.
   The possible  ACC button
programming features are illus-
trated below, and their func-
tions are explained in the next
chapter. For further details,
contact your VERTEX STAN-
DARD dealer.
   For future reference, check
the box next to the function that
has been assigned to the ACC
button on your particular radio,
and keep it handy.

Press the ACC button to override (disable) the Tone Squelch.
Background noise or incoming signals will now be heard whether or not a match-
ing tone is present on the signal. Press the ACC button once more to resume
normal (quiet) Tone Squelch action.

Press the ACC button to override both the Noise and Tone squelch systems.
Again press the ACC button to resume normal (quiet) Noise and Tone squelch
action.

Press the ACC button to set the radio's transmitter to the “Low Power” mode,
thus extending battery life. Press the ACC button again to return to “High Power”
operation when in difficult terrain.

The Scanning feature is used to monitor multiple channels programmed into the
transceiver. While scanning, the radio will check each channel for the presence
of a signal, and will stop on a channel if a signal is present.
r To activate scanning:

Press the ACC button.
The scanner will search the channels, looking for “active” ones; it will pause
each time it finds a channel on which someone is speaking.

r To stop scanning:

Press the ACC button.
Operation will revert to the channel to which the CH knob is set.

“Follow-Me” Scan feature checks a User-assigned Priority Channel regularly as
you scan the other channels. Thus, if only Channels 1, 3, and 5 (of the 8 avail-
able channels) are designated for “Scanning,” the user may nonetheless assign
Channel as the “User-assigned” Priority Channel via the “Follow-Me” feature.
Press the ACC button to activate “Follow-Me” scanning, then pull and turn the
CH selector knob to the channel which you want to designate as the “User-
Assigned Priority Channel”. When the scanner stops on an “active” channel, the
User-assigned Priority Channel will automatically be checked every few seconds.

The Dual Watch feature is similar to the Scan feature, except that only two chan-
nels are monitored: the current operating channel, and the “Priority” channel.
r To activate Dual Watch:

Press the ACC button.
The scanner will search the two channels; it will pause each time it finds a
channel on which someone is speaking.

r To stop Dual Watch:

Press the ACC button.
Operation will revert to the channel to which the CH knob is set.

This Radio has been tested and complies with the Federal Communications Commis-
sion (FCC) RF exposure limits for Occupational Use/Controlled exposure environ-
ment. In addition, it complies with the following Standards and Guidelines:

r FCC 96-326, Guidelines for Evaluating the Environmental Effects of Radio-Fre-

quency Radiation.

r FCC OET Bulletin 65 Edition 97-01 (1997) Supplement C, Evaluating Compli-

ance with FCC Guidelines for Human Exposure to Radio Frequency Electromag-
netic Fields.

r ANSI/IEEE C95.1-1992, IEEE Standard for Safety Levels with Respect to Hu-

man Exposure to Radio Frequency Electromagnetic Fields, 3 kHz to 300 GHz.

r ANSI/IEEE C95.3-1992, IEEE Recommended Practice for the Measurement of

Potentially Hazardous Electromagnetic Fields - RF and Microwave.

m This radio is NOT approved for use by the general population in an uncon-

m When transmitting, hold the radio in a vertical position with its microphone

m The radio must be used with a maximum operating duty cycle not exceeding

m Always use Vertex Standard authorized accessories.

The U.S. Coast Guard and National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration
have requested the cooperation of the U.S. Federal Communications Commission in
preserving the integrity of the protected frequency range 406.0 to 406.1 MHz, which
is reserved for use by distress beacons. Do not attempt to program this apparatus,
under any circumstances, for operation in the frequency range 406.0 - 406.1 MHz if
the apparatus is to be used in or near North America.

Press the ACC button to activate the Talk Around feature when you are operat-
ing on duplex channel systems (separate receive and transmit frequencies, utiliz-
ing a “repeater” station). The Talk Around feature allows you to bypass the re-
peater station and talk directly to a station that is nearby. This feature has no
effect when you are operating on “Simplex” channels, where the receive and
transmit frequencies are already the same.
Note that your dealer may have made provision for “Talk Around” channels by
programming “repeater” and “Talk Around” frequencies on two adjacent chan-
nels. If so, the ACC key may be used for one of the other Pre-Programmed
Functions.

When the 2-tone selective calling unit is installed, press the ACC button to si-
lence the receiver and reset for another call, when a communication is finished.

Your Dealer may have pre-programmed Auto-Dial telephone number memories
into your radio.
To dial a number, just press the Dealer-assigned ACC button for Speed Dialing.
The DTMF tones sent during the dialing sequence will be heard in the speaker.

Press the ACC button to disable the Transmit Battery Saver, if you are operating
in a location where high power is almost always needed.
The Transmit Battery Saver helps extend battery life by reducing transmit power
when a very strong signal from an apparently nearby station is being received.
Under some circumstances, though, your hand-held radio may not be heard well
at the other end of the communication path, and high power may be necessary at
all times.

Activates an optional Unit (module) while the ACC button is held depressed.
When you release the ACC button, the optional Unit will be disabled.
For further details, contact your VERTEX STANDARD dealer.

Toggles the optional Unit “on” or “off” whenever you press the ACC button.
For example, when the optional “FVP-25” voice encryption unit is installed,
press the ACC button momentarily to disable the voice encryption feature tem-
porarily.
Press the ACC button again to re-enable the voice encryption feature.
