PREPARING FOR USE
UNPACKING AND INSPECTION
Unpack the radio and check that you have received the
following items:
·SL100K hand-portable radio
·Battery pack
·Antenna
·Belt clip
If any of these items are missing, please contact your
Reseller.
FITTING INSTRUCTIONS
ATTACHING AND REMOVING THE ANTENNA
A high quality matched antenna is supplied with the SL100K
radio. Install the antenna by turning clockwise into the
antenna socket Ãon the top of the radio, until it is firmly
seated. Do not over tighten. To remove the antenna, reverse
the above procedure.
Never operate the rad o w thout the antenna f tted.
Always use a Maxon approved antenna.
ATTACHING AND REMOVING THE BATTERY
(See Fig. 1)
To attach the battery pack, hold the radio face down in your
hand and position the guides of the battery in line with the
radio guide rails. Slide the battery upward until a click is
heard.
To remove the battery pack, hold the radio face down in your
hand and push the battery latch button located in the upper
right hand corner of the battery pack. Hold the battery latch
button down, and slide the radio battery in a downward
direction.
Gently lift the battery pack away from the base of radio when
it is free from radio guide rails.
ATTACHING AND REMOVING THE BELT CLIP
To attach the clip, hold the radio face down in your hand.
Locate the slot in the belt clip and align with holder on upper
left-hand corner of the radio back. Push upward on belt clip
until a click is heard. To remove the clip, push and hold the
release button located at the top of the belt clip. Slide the
clip away from the belt clip holder.

RADIO PERFORMANCE
Optimum positioning of the radio will significantly improve the
effective transmission range, i.e. hold the radio close
(approximately 5cm) to your mouth whilst talking. Mounting
the radio on a belt and using a lapel microphone may
degrade performance in marginal signal areas. In poor
signal areas, moving the radio just a few metres may
produce a clearer signal.
ENGLISH
7

BATTERY CHARGING AND CARE
To ensure peak performance from your radio, the battery
pack must be fully charged. To obtain maximum capacity and
performance it is recommended that you cycle your new
batteries with at least 3 charges and 2 discharges.
Remove the charger base and power supply from the
packaging, and plug in the power supply's DC connector into
the jack on the back of the charging base. Plug the AC
power cord into the standard mains AC outlet.
To charge a battery while attached to a radio, simply place
the radio into the front charging well. The charger will identify
the battery condition, and then automatically initiate a charge
mode - rapid or top-up trickle.
To charge a battery removed from the radio, place the
battery into the rear charging well. (Belt clip side facing rear.)
Again, the charger will identify the battery condition, and
automatically rapid charge or top-up trickle charge, the
battery pack.
Note the colour of the LED charge indicators: flashing red for
brief battery analysis, red for rapid charge cycle, green for
the top-up trickle charge cycle.
When using both charging wells of the fast charger, only one
can rapid charge at a time. The front charging well always
has priority for rapid charging. After the front well cycles from
rapid to top-up trickle charge, the back well will initiate its
rapid charge mode. Again, note the colour of the charging
well's LED to define the current charging cycle.
Note: To ensure peak performance from your radio,
periodically discharge the battery completely and recharge
fully. This action will prevent the battery from developing a
"memory" of short-term use, and will permit a good service
life.
To prolong battery life in general usage, make sure that the
radio is programmed to use the power save mode.
RECYCLING / DISPOSAL OF BATERIES
The battery should be recycled at the end of its useful life.
Under various local laws, Ni-MH and Ni-Cad batteries must
be recycled or disposed of properly and cannot be discarded
in landfills or incinerators.
For further information on how to safely dispose of your used
batteries, contact your reseller.

SL100K OPERATION
Many of the features of the SL100K are User Defined and
will have been determined by the Reseller and End User
together. Page 13 shows how your radio may have been
programmed.
POWER ON/VOLUME/POWER OFF
Turn the radio on by rotating the off on volume control À
clockwise.
You will hear a click and (if enabled via dealer programming),
the radio's self-test alert tones. Increase the radio volume by
continuing the clockwise rotation.
To turn the radio off, rotate the control anti-clockwise until a
click is heard.
CHANNEL SELECT
To change radio channels, simply press and release the
buttons sor tuntil the desired channel is reached. Or,
to scroll through your programmed channels more quickly,
press and hold the sor t buttons. The channel numbers
will appear in the radio's LCD Â (Located on top panel of
unit).
To lock the Channel Select buttons (to prevent accidental
channel change) press and hold Key 1 Èfor 4 seconds.
"LO" will appear in the LCD display Â. To unlock the
Channel Select buttons, press and hold Key 1 again for 4
seconds
KEYPAD
The Keypad can be locked, by pressing the * (star) and #
(hash) keys at the same time for approximately 1 second.
Repeat the procedure to unlock the keypad.
The following comments are intended to be used as a guide
only, due to the variable nature of the software and radio
features.
TRANSMIT
To Transmit a fixed Selcall address, Group Call, or an
Emergency Call: -
A short or long press on a Call Key, either Key 1 Èor Key 2
Édepending on set-up. Briefly the LED Áon the top panel
illuminates RED. Conversation can begin by pressing the
PTT Æbutton.
ENGLISH
9

To Transmit a variable Selcall address: -
A variable selcall address may be selected using the
numerical keys 0 - 9 .
The number of variable digits will be determined at
programming.
Pressing the * key generates the default address (call 1)
which includes the appended variable digits.
Pressing the # key generates the default address (call 2)
which includes the appended variable digits.
For e.g. calling radio 37325, the default address is 373KK,
so only 2 and 5 have to be pressed on the keypad, and then
* to send.
To Transmit DTMF: -
The radio can be programmed for DTMF transmission only,
or can be programmed to toggle between Selcall and DTMF.
If programmed with this "toggle keypad" mode, press the
"toggle keypad" key (defined at programming stage) and
press the DTMF keys to transmit. Pressing the "toggle
keypad" key once more will return the keypad to selcall
mode.
At power-up, the radio will default to Selcall mode.
In DTMF mode only, press the DTMF keys to transmit.
With all of the above features, when ready to speak, hold the
radio microphone area approximately 5 - 8cm from your
mouth, keeping the antenna vertical. Press and hold the PTT
button Æon the side of the radio, and begin speaking in a
clear, normal tone. Release the PTT button when you have
finished speaking.
To Transmit Status: -
If programmed to send Status, a long press on the # key
places the radio into status mode. The status digit(s) can
then be entered and a further long press on the # key stores
the status digit(s). Pressing the Call 1 Key or the * key will
then transmit the status digit with the Selcall address.
CAUTION: Operation of the transmitter without a proper
antenna fitted may result in permanent damage to the radio.
NOTE: The radio's LED will illuminate red continuously when
you have the PTT button pressed and are transmitting. If the
red LED starts "flashing", the battery needs to be recharged
and transmission will cease. Recharge the battery fully
before reusing.
ENGLISH
10

RECEIVE
Flashing green LED indicates call received, and if
programmed, an alert tone is generated. Conversation can
then begin by pressing the PTT button. LED will continue to
flash until call has been answered.
STATUS INDICATORS
AND AUDIBLE ALERT TONES
The SL100K radio provides a range of audible alert tones.
Upon each power-up, a quick melody* indicates that the self-
test of the microprocessor functions has been completed. A
variety of audible tones* may be sounded with any of the
following conditions:
·PTT lockout
·Tx Timeout timer
·Toggling scrambler on and off
·Toggling keypad on and of
·Keypad alerts
·Side button alerts
·Decode of valid selcall address
·Auto-mute alert
·All audible tones can be programmed off for silent
operation
ENGLISH
11

DIAGNOSTIC MESSAGES
In addition to the low battery condition, a flashing red status
LED may also indicate fault conditions
Should your radio apparently not operate correctly, replace
the battery with one known to be fully charged. If the
condition persists, or the radio emits an unexpected
continuous pattern of audio beeps, or will not transmit or
receive as it does normally, return the radio to your Maxon
Reseller.
NOTE: All audible tones can be programmed 'off' for silent
operation
