HF MARINE TRANSCEIVER IC—-M710 Icom Inc.IMPORTANT READ THIS INSTRUCTION MANUAL, CAREFULLY before attempting to operate the transceiver. SAVE THIS INSTRUCTION MANUAL — This instruction manual contains important safety and ‘operating instructions for the IC-M710. The DSC function is not standard for any of the IC-M710 versions and is possible with the IC-M710 GMDSS versions only. To use the DSC function, an optional GM-110DSC OSC TERMINAL UNIT must be connected to the IC-M710 GMDSS. EXPLICIT DEFINITIONS The explicit definitions described below apply to this struction manual WORD DEFINITION Personal injury, fire hazard or electric AWARNING | shock may occur. CAUTION | Equipment damage may occur. If disregarded, inconvenience only. No NOTE | tisk of personal injury, fire or electric shock, PRECAUTIONS 4\ WARNING! NEVER connect the transceiver to an AC outlet directly. This may pose a fire hazard r result in an electric shock. AX WARNING! NEVER mount the transceiver overhead. ‘The weight of the transceiver is approxi- mately 8 kg, but its apparent weight will increase several fold due to wave shocks or vibration. The transceiver must be mounted on a flat hard surface only. NEVER connect a power source of more than 16 V DC such as a 24 V battery. This connection will the transceiver. NEVER place the transceiver where normal opera- tion of the ship or vehicle may be hindered or where it could cause bodily injury. NEVER allow children to touch the transceiver. NEVER expose the transceiver to rain, snow or any liquids. ‘There are two types of grounding systems available for the IC-M710 — Negative Ground and Floating Ground — NEVER install the negative ground type to a plus-grounding ship. Such a connection might blow fuses and is not usable. DO NOT use chemical agents such as benzene or alcohol when cleaning, as they can damage the transceiver surfaces. In maritime mobile operation, KEEP the transceiver and microphone as far away as possible (at least 1 'm) from the magnetic navigation compass to prevent erroneous indications. USE an Icom microphone and/or handset only (supplied or optional). Other brands may have differ- ent pin assignments and may damage the trans- ceiver. AVOID using or placing the transceiver in areas with temperatures below -20 °C (~4°F) or above +60 °C (4140°F). AVOID connecting the transceiver to a power source using reverse polarity. This connection will not only blow fuses but may also damage the transceiver. AVOID placing the transceiver in excessively dusty environments or in direct sunlight. AVOID placing the transceiver against walls or putt- ing anything on top of the transceiver. This. will ‘obstruct heat dissipation.IN CASE OF EMERGENCY (for maritime operation) It your vessel requires assistance, contact other vessels and the Coast Guard by sending a distress call on 2182 kHz. r, transmit your distress call using digital selective calling on 2187.5 kHz ‘USING 2182 kHz WITH VOICE @ Push [2182kHz] to select the emergency fre- quency. @® Push [ALARM] and [TX FREQ] for 1 sec. to trans- mit a two-tone alarm signal for at least 30 sec. +The transceiver automatically stops the alarm after 50 sec. @ Push [ALARM] to turn OFF the alarm trans- mission, then push and hold the PTT switch on the microphone and send the following infor- mation. 1, "MAYDAY, MAYDAY, MAYDAY.” 2."THIS IS " (name of vessel) 3."LOCATED AT ......"

WONT + CALL PROCEDURES Calls must be properly identified and time limit must be respected. © Give your call sign each time you call another vessel or coast station. f you have no cal sign, identify the station by giving your vessel name and the name of the licensee. @ Give your call sign at the-end of each trans- mmission that lasts more than 3 min. @ You must break and give your call sign at least once every 15 min. during long ship-to-shore calls. @ Keep your unanswered calls short, less than 30 sec. Do not repeat a call for 2 min. © Unnecessary transmissions are not allowed. + PRIORITIES @® Read all rules and regulations pertaining to priorities and keep an up-to-date copy handy. Safety and distress calls take priority over all others. @ False or fraudulent distress signals are prohibited land punishable by law. + PRIVACY @ Information overheard but not cannot lawtully be used in any way. tended for you @ Indecent or profane language is pro! *LoGs © All distress, emergency and safety calls must be recorded in complete detail. Log data activity is usually recorded in 24 hour time. Universal Time (UTC) is frequently used. © Adjustments, repairs, channel frequency changes and authorized modifications affecting electrical ‘operation of the equipment must be kept in the maintenance log; entries must be signed by the authorized licensed technician performing or su- pervising the work. * RADIO LICENSES (1) SHIP STATION LICENSE ‘You must have a current radio station license before using the transceiver. It is unlawful to operate a ship. station which is not licensed. Inquire through your dealer or the appropriate gov- emment agency for a Ship-Radiotelephone license application. This government-issued license states the call sign which is your craft's identification for radio purposes. (2) OPERATOR'S LICENSE A Restricted Radiotelephone Operator Permit is the license most often held by small vessel radio opera- tors when a radio is not required for safety purposes. ‘The Restricted Radiotelephone Operator Permit must be posted or kept with the operator. Only a licensed radio operator may operate a transceiver. However, non-licensed individuals may talk over a transceiver if a licensed operator starts, supervises, and ends the call, and makes the necessary log entries. Keep a copy of the current government rules and regulations handy.2 PANEL DESCRIPTION Front panel @ MICROPHONE CONNECTOR (p. 16) Accepts the supplied microphone or an optional handset.

Otherwise, the overall efficiency of the transceiver and antenna tuner in- stallation will be reduced. Electrolysis, electrical shocks and interference from other equipment could also ocour. For best results, use the heaviest gauge wire or strap available and make the connection as short as possible. Ground the transceiver and antenna tuner to one ground point, otherwise voltage differences between 2 ground points may cause electrolysis. Z CAUTION: The IC-M710 has either a negative Y ground or floating ground depending on version.

There are 3 ways to supply power: = Direct connection to a 12 V battery in your ship through the supplied DC power cable. - Use the PS-60 DC POWER SUPPLY to connect to an AC outlet. - Use the PS-66 DC-DC CONVERTER to connect to a 19-32 V DC power source. CAUTION: The supplied DC power cable MUST be used to provide power to the trans- ceiver. AVOID exceeding the 3 m (10 ft) length of the DC power cable. Ifit is necessary to make run of over 3 m, use #6 or similar cable instead of the supplied DC power cable for a maximum run of 6 m (20 ft) DOWD ‘+ DC power cable connection GNOTE: Use terminals for Z the cable connection. ‘Supplied DC power cable 18CONNECTIONS AND INSTALLATION 7 @ Antenna Most stations operate with a whip or long wire (insu- With a 50 Q matched antenna all marine bands can- lated backstay) antenna.
