AnyTone AT-5189 User manual

Thank you for choosing this vehicle transceiver,
always provides high quality products, And this tra-
nsceiver is no exception. As you learn how to use this
transceiver, you will find that is pursuing "user
friendliness". For example, each time you change the Menu No.
in Menu mode, you will see a text message on the display that
lets you know what you are conguring.
Though user friendly, this transceiver is technically
sophisticated and some features may be new to you. Consider
this manual to be a personal tutorial from the designers. Allow
the manual to guide you through the learning process now, then
act as a reference in the coming years.
Precautions
Please observe the following precautions to prevent fire,
personal injury, and/or transceiver damage:
Do not attempt to configure your transceiver while driving;
it is simply too dangerous.
This transceiver is designed for a 13.8 V power source.
Never use a 24 V battery to power the transceiver.
Do not place the transceiver
in excessively dusty, humid
or wet areas, nor on unstable
surfaces.
Please keep it away from
interferential devices (such
as TV, generator etc.) when
interfered by external
Do not expose the transceiver to long periods of direct
sunlight nor place it close to heating appliances.
If an abnormal odor or smoke is detected coming from the
transceiver, turn OFF the power immediately. Contact a
Anytone service station or your dealer.
Do not transmit with high output power for extended periods;
the transceiver may overheat.

Mobile installation
To install the transceiver, select a safe, convenient location inside
your vehicle that minimizes danger to your passengers and yourself
while the vehicle is in motion. Consider installing the unit at an appro-
priate position so that knees or legs will not strike it during sudden bra-
king of your vehicle. Try to pick a well ventilated location that is shielded
from direct sunlight.
The bracket must be installed so that the 3 screw hole positions•
on the side of the mounting bracket are towards the rear of
the bracket.

Position the transceiver, then insert and tighten the supplied2.
hexagon SEMS screws and at washers.
Double check that all hardware is tightened to prevent vehicle•
vibration from loosening the bracket or transceiver.
Determine the appropriate angle of the transceiver, using the•
3 screw hole positions on the side of the mounting bracket.
Install the mounting bracket in the vehicle using the supplied self-1.
tapping screws (4pcs), at washers (4pcs), and spring washers
(4pcs).

PREPARATION
DC Power Cable Connection
Mobile Operation
♦
The vehicle battery must have a nominal rating of 12 V. Never
connect the transceiver to a 24 V battery. Be sure to use a 12V
vehicle battery that has sufficient current capacity. If the current
to the transceiver is insufficient, the display may darken during
transmission, or transmit output power may drop excessively.
Route the DC power cable supplied with the transceiver directly to1.
the vehicle's battery terminals using the shortest path from the
transceiver.
If using a noise filter, it should be installed with an insulator•
to prevent it from touching metal on the vehicle.
We recommend you do not use the cigarette lighter socket as some•
cigarette lighter sockets introduce an unacceptable voltage
drop.
The entire length of the cable must be dressed so it is isolated•
from heat, moisture, and the engine secondary (high voltage)
ignition system/ cables.
Locate the power input connector as close to the transceiver as
possible.
Note:
Confirm the correct polarity of the connections, then attach the4.
power cable to the battery terminals; red connects to the positive (+)
terminal and black connects to the negative (-) terminal.
Use the full length of the cable without cutting off excess•
even if the cable is longer than required. In particular, never
remove the fuse holders from the cable.
Reconnect any wiring removed from the negative terminal.5.
Connect the DC power cable to the transceiver's power supply6.
connector.
Press the connectors firmly together until the locking tab•
clicks.
After the cable is in place, wrap heat-resistant tape around the2.
fuse holder to protect it from moisture and tie down the full run of
cable.
To prevent the risk of short circuits, disconnect other wiring from3.
the negative (-) battery terminal before connecting the transceiver.

Fixed Station Operation
♦
In order to use this transceiver for xed station 1 operation, you will
need a separate 13.8 V DC power supply (not included).
The recommended current capacity of your power supply is 12 A.
Connect the DC power cable to the regulated DC power supply1.
and ensure that the polarities are correct (Red: positive, Black:
negative).
Do not directly connect the transceiver to an AC outlet.•
Use the supplied DC power cable to connect the transceiver to•
a regulated power supply.
Do not substitute a cable with smaller gauge wires.•

♦
Connect the transceiver's DC power connector to the connector2.
on the DC power cable.Press the connectors rmly together until
the locking tab clicks.
Note:
Before connecting the DC power to the transceiver , be sure to
switch the transceiver and the DC power supply OFF.
Do not plug the DC power supply into an AC outlet until you make
all connections.
If the fuse blows, determine the cause, then correct the problem.
After the problem is resolved, replace the fuse. If newly installed fuses
continue to blow, disconnect the power cable and contact your autho-
rized dealer or an authorized service
center for assistance.

Note:
Caution:
Fuse Location Fuse Current Rating
Transceiver 15A
Supplied Accessory DC
power cable 20A
Only use fuses of the specified type and rating; otherwise the
transceiver could be damaged.
If you use the transceiver for a long period when the vehicle battery
is not fully charged, or when the engine is OFF, the battery may
become discharged, and will not have sufcient reserves to start
the vehicle.
Avoid using the transceiver in these conditions.
Antenna Connection
Before operating, install an efcient, well-tuned antenna. The success
of your installation will depend largely on the type of antenna and its
correct installation. The transceiver can give excellent results if the
antenna system and its installation are given careful attention.
Use a 50Ω impedance antenna and low-loss coaxial feed line that
has a characteristic impedance of 50 Ω, to match the transceiver
input impedance. Coupling the antenna to the transceiver via feed
lines having an impedance other than 50Ω reduces the efciency of
the antenna system and can cause interference to nearby broadcast
television receivers, radio receivers, and other electronic equipment.
Note:
Transmitting without first connecting an antenna or other•
matched load may damage the transceiver. Always connect the
The possible locations of antenna on a car are shown as following.
PREPARATION
antenna to the transceiver before transmitting.
All fixed stations should be equipped with a lightning arrester•
to reduce the risk of re, electric shock, and transceiver damage.

External Speaker
♦
If you plan to use an external speaker, choose a speaker with an
impedance of 8 Ω. The external speaker jack accepts a 3.5 mm (1/8")
mono (2-conductor) plug.
Note:
External speaker adopt double port BTL, please care about the
connecting way. The speaker can not connect with the ground,
otherwise the speaker will be fault. The wrong connecting way as
the following picture.
Microphone
♦
PC Connecting
♦
Note:
For voice communications, connect a microphone equipped with an
8-pin modular plug into the modular socket on the front of the main
unit. Press rmly on the plug until the locking tab clicks.
Attach the supplied microphone hanger in an appropriate location
using the screws included in the screw set.
To utilize the optional QPS589 software, you must first connect the
transceiver to your PC using an optional programming Cable PC51 (via
the microphone jack).
Please use QPS589 software for programming.
Ask your dealer about purchasing a Programming Cable PC51.
