2 SAFETY INFORMATION
The operator of any mobile radio should be aware of certain hazards common
to the operation of vehicular radio transmissions. A list of several possible
hazards is given:
1. Explosive Atmospheres - Just as it is dangerous to fuel a vehicle
with the motor running, similar hazards exist when operating a
mobile radio, be sure to turn the power to the radio OFF while
fueling the vehicle. Do not carry containers of fuel in the trunk of the
vehicle if the radio is mounted in the trunk.
2. Interference to Vehicular Electronics Systems - Electronic fuel
injection systems, electronic anti-skid braking systems, electronic
cruise control systems, etc., are typical electronic systems that may
malfunction due to the lack of protection from radio frequency
energy present when transmitting. If the vehicle contains such
equipment, consult the dealership and enlist their aid in determining
the expected performance of electronic circuits when the radio is
transmitting.
3. Electric Blasting Caps - To prevent accidental detonation of electric
blasting caps, DO NOT use two-way radios within 1000 feet of
blasting operations. Always obey the "Turn Off Two-Way Radios"
signs posted where electric blasting caps are being used. (OSHA
Standard: 1926.900).
4. Radio Frequency Energy - To prevent burns or related physical
injury from radio frequency energy, do not operate the transmitter
when anyone outside of the vehicle is within two feet of the antenna.
5. Liquefied Petroleum (LP) Gas Powered Vehicles - Mobile radio
installations in vehicles powered by liquefied petroleum gas with the
LP gas container in the trunk or other sealed-off space within the
interior of the vehicle must conform to the National Fire Protection
Association standard (NFPA)58 requiring:
a) The space containing the radio equipment shall be isolated
by a seal from the space containing the LP gas container and
its fittings.
b) Outside filling connections shall be used for the LP gas
container.
c) The LP gas container shall be vented to the outside of the
vehicle.

2.1 SAFE DRIVING RECOMMENDATIONS FOR
USERS OF MOBILE RADIOS RECOMMENDED BY
AAA
•Read the literature on the safe operation of the radio.
•Keep both hands on the steering wheel and the microphone in its
hanger whenever the vehicle is in motion.
•Place calls only when the vehicle is stopped.
•When talking from a moving vehicle is unavoidable, drive in the
slower lane. Keep conversations brief.
•If a conversation requires taking notes or complex thought, stop the
vehicle in a safe place and continue the call.
•Whenever using a mobile radio exercise caution.
2.2 OPERATING RULES AND REGULATIONS
Two-way FM radio systems must be operated in accordance with the rules
and regulations of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). As an
operator of two-way radio equipment, you must be thoroughly familiar with
the rules that apply to your particular type of radio operation. Following these
rules helps eliminate confusion, assures the most efficient use of the existing
radio channels, and results in a smoothly functioning radio network. When
using your two-way radio, remember these rules:
1. It is a violation of FCC rules to interrupt any distress or emergency
message. As your radio operates in much the same way as a
telephone "party line", always listen to make sure that the channel
is clear before transmitting. Emergency calls have priority over all
other messages. If someone is sending an emergency message - such
as reporting a fire or asking for help in an accident - KEEP OFF
THE AIR!
2. The use of profane or obscene language is prohibited by Federal law.
3. It is against the law to send false call letters or false distress or
emergency messages. The FCC requires that you keep conversations
brief and confine them to business. To save time, use coded
messages whenever possible.
4. Using your radio to send personal messages (except in an
emergency) is a violation of FCC rules. You may send only those
messages that are essential for the operation of your business.
5. It is against Federal law to repeat or otherwise make known anything
you overhear on your radio. Conversations between others sharing
your channel must be regarded as confidential.

6. The FCC requires that you identify yourself at certain specific times
by means of your call letters. Refer to the rules that apply to your
particular type of operation for the proper procedure.
7. No changes or adjustments shall be made to the equipment except
authorized or certified electronic technician.
Under U.S. law, operation of an unlicensed radio transmitter within the
j
urisdiction of the United States may be punishable by a fine of up to
$10,000, imprisonment for up to two years, or both.
IMPORTANT
2.3 OPERATING TIPS
The following conditions tend to reduce the effective range of two-way radios
and should be avoided whenever possible:
•Operating the radio in areas of low terrain, or while under power
lines or bridges.
•Obstructions such as mountains and buildings.
In areas where transmission or reception is poor, some improvement may be
obtained by insuring that the antenna is vertical. Moving a few yards in
another direction or moving to a higher elevation may also improve
communication.

3 INTRODUCTION
The Vehicular Charger (VC),is designed to be vehicle mounted. The VC,
product numbers BML 161 67/2, BML 161 67/22 and BML 161 67/62, will
charge Nickel Cadmium (NiCd) type battery packs for all models of the
Prism™ HP, LPE™-200, LPE-50, M-RK™, JAGUAR™ 700P/Pi and P7100IP
radios. The VC, product number BML 161 67/162, will charge Nickel
Cadmium (NiCd) and Nickel Metal Hydride (NiMH) batteries for the JAGUAR
700P/Pi and P7100IP radios.
The VC model BML 161 67/162 contains a Dual Position feature, which has
two sets of battery charging contacts. If a speaker/microphone is attached to
the radio before being inserted into the VC, the radio is configured in the First
Position mode, which charges the radio battery through the first set of battery
charging contacts. The radio will remain operational while charging using the
radio antenna and the speaker/microphone.
Use only speaker/microphones KRY 101 1617/185, KRY 101
1617/186 or KRY 101 1617/385 or equivalent with VC model
BML 161 67/162. Using any other speaker/ microphone
attached to the radio will cause severe damage to the charger,
radio and/or speaker/microphone.
If a speaker/microphone is not attached to the radio before it is inserted into
the VC (BML 161 67/162) the radio is configured in the Second Position
mode and the second set of battery charging contacts allows the radio operate
and function like VC BML 161 67/2, BML 161 67/22 and BML 161 67/62,
which allows the VC to latch directly to the UDC of the radio.
Four models of the VC are available, and differentiated by the type of insert
provided. The insert (or sleeve) is the part of the charger where the radio is
placed to charge the battery pack. See Table 3-1 for a list of the Vehicle
Charger product numbers and corresponding radio product for each.

4.2 STEP 2 - LOCATE THE TOOLS REQUIRED
•Electric Drill
•No. 28 Drill Bit
•Hole Saw
•Phillips and Flat-Blade Screwdrivers
4.3 STEP 3 - PLAN THE INSTALLATION
Before work actually begins, the installation of the Vehicular Charger should
be carefully planned. It is recommended that the unit be installed by one of
the many Authorized Service Centers located throughout the United States.
Personnel at these centers are experienced in installations of this type of
equipment and can provide a safe, neat and functional installation.
Mechanical installation guidelines include mounting the unit:
•in a location that is safe for the operator and any passengers in
the vehicle.
•in a location that is convenient for the operator to use.
•in a location that allows proper clearance for cables.
•so that it can be easily removed for servicing.
4.4 STEP 4 - CONFIGURE THE CHARGER
The VC is equipped with a dip switch bank. The dip switch bank configures
the charger for each application. There are eight (8) dip switches on the bank.
Table 4-1 provides a list of all the dip switches along with the factory default
setting.
4.4.1 Accessing the DIP Switches
1. Locate the dip switch access panel located on the bottom of the
charger.
2. Using your finger (or a flat blade screwdriver), bend the locking tab
toward the front of the charger and then pull up on the locking tab to
remove the access panel.

4.4.2 Switches 1 – 6
Switches 1 through 6 do not affect the operation of the charger. They must
be left in the factory default settings.
4.4.3 Switch 7: Charge Rate
Use switch 7 to configure the charge rate. The VC can be configured to
charge at 750 milliamps or 1.5 amps. By default, switch 7 is set in the ON
position as shown in Table 4-1 and Figure 4-8. This configures the charger to
rapid charge at a rate of 1.5 amps. The 1.5 amp charge rate is the preferred
rapid charge rate for most applications.
When the battery is placed in the charger, the fast or "rapid" charge feature, is
normally applied immediately. When the rapid charge is applied to the battery
repeatedly in a short period of time, a high internal battery temperature may
result. This high battery temperature will prevent the battery from charging
and may reduce battery life.
In applications where the battery is removed from and inserted in the charger
repeatedly within a short period of time, the 750-milliamp charge rate should
be used. For a 750-milliamp-charge rate, set switch 7 to OFF as shown in
Figure 4-2. For more information on charging the battery and battery life, see
the section named Operation on page 20.

4.4.4 Switch 8: Radio Select
Your Vehicular Charger can be used with Prism HP/LPE-200/LPE-50, M-RK,
JAGUAR 700P/Pi or P7100IP radios. Switch 8 defines the type of radio that will
be used with the charger. The type of radio is also physically or mechanically
dependent on the insert or sleeve installed in the charger. The sleeve is the
part of the charger the radio is placed in to be charged. From the factory, this
switch is set according to the sleeve installed. The sleeves are
interchangeable, therefore if the sleeve type is changed; the dip switch must
also be changed.

4.5 STEP 5 - INSTALL POWER CABLE
The Standard Power Cable (RPM 113 2864/1) supplied with the charger, is
approximately eight (8) feet long and consists of a DB-25 connector and two
leads. The YELLOW (positive) lead includes a fuse holder and 5-ampere fuse
located near the battery end. See Figure 4-5: Standard Power Cable (RPM 113
2864/1). The power cable must be connected to the vehicle's battery. The
vehicle must have a negative-ground electrical system.
Figure 4-5: Standard Power Cable (RPM 113 2864/1)
1. When the charger is wired directly to the vehicle's battery it is
necessary to route the power leads through the vehicle's firewall. If
an existing hole is not conveniently located in the firewall, drill a
small hole and install an appropriately sized rubber grommet before
routing the leads through the firewall. This grommet is required to
prevent lead chaffing. Additional grommets may be required if the
leads must pass through shields or guards in the engine compartment
between the firewall and battery.
Route the leads away from high heat sources in the engine
compartment that may cause lead damage and introduce a fire
hazard. In addition, the leads should not be routed near electrical
noise sources such as electronic ignition modules or cruise control
modules.
2. Connect the BLACK lead to the negative power source ("NEG" or
"-" battery post) and connect the YELLOW lead to the positive
power source ("POS" or "+" battery post). See Figure 4-6: Power
Cable Installation Diagram.

The power source must have adequate current supply
capability.
This connection wires the charger to an un-switched power source so the
charger can operate when the vehicle ignition switch is turned OFF. However,
if desired, the charger can be controlled by a switched power supply. See
Section 4.5.1 Connecting to a Switched Power Source.
The Vehicular Charger contains an enable/disable circuit for a separately
installed vehicular repeater. For this feature, a modification to the power cable
is required. See Section 4.5.2 Vehicular Repeater Enable/Disable on page 17.
4.5.1 Connecting to a Switched Power Source
To control the charger by a switched power source, an #18 AWG wire (not
supplied by M/A-COM) must be installed between the DB-25 connector and
the ignition switch power. Install the wire as described in the following
instructions:
1. Using a small Phillips head screwdriver, disassemble the DB-25
Power Cable connector.
2. Solder one end of the #18 AWG wire to Pin 10 of the DB-25
connector. Make sure enough lead is provided to make the
connection.

5 OPERATION
The Vehicular Charger (VC), is designed to be vehicle mounted. The VC,
product numbers BML 161 67/2, BML 161 67/22 and BML 161 67/62, will
charge Nickel Cadmium (NiCd) type battery packs for all models of the Prism
HP, LPE-200, LPE-50, M-RK, JAGUAR 700P/Pi and P7100IP radios. The VC,
product number BML 161 67/162, will charge Nickel Cadmium (NiCd) and
Nickel Metal Hydride (NiMH) batteries for the JAGUAR 700P/Pi and P7100IP
radios.
The VC model BML 161 67/162 contains a Dual Position feature, which has
two sets of battery charging contacts. If a speaker/microphone is attached to
the radio before being inserted into the VC, the radio is configured in the First
Position mode, which charges the radio battery through the first set of battery
charging contacts. The radio will remain operational while charging using the
radio antenna and the speaker/microphone.
CAUTION
The upper position (i.e. radio with speaker/mic attached) is
designed for battery charging only. The radio may be on and
receiving calls, but TX is not allowed. If an attempt is made to
transmit during battery charging in the upper position, the
charge cycle may be terminated early (battery incompletely
charged). If this occurs, the charge must be restarted by
removing and re-inserting the radio into the charger.
Use only speaker/microphones KRY 101 1617/185, KRY 101
1617/186 or KRY 101 1617/385 or equivalent with VC model
BML 161 67/162. Using any other speaker/microphone
attached to the radio will cause severe damage to the charger,
radio and/or speaker/microphone.
If a speaker/microphone is not attached to the radio before it is inserted into
the VC (BML 161 67/162) the radio is configured in the Second Position
mode and the second set of battery charging contacts allows the radio to
operate and function like VC BML 161 67/2, BML 161 67/22 and BML 161
67/62, which allow the VC to latch directly to the UDC of the radio.
