GETTING STARTED  
Note: The following instructions are for use by your Kenwood dealer, an authorized Kenwood  
service facility, or the factory.  
Suppl ied AcceSSo r ieS

listed below before discarding the packing material. If any items are missing or  
have been damaged during shipment, file a claim with the carrier immediately.

pr epAr At io n  
Various electronic equipment in your vehicle may malfunction if they are not properly protected  
from the radio frequency energy which is present while transmitting. Typical examples include  
electronic fuel injection, anti-skid braking, and cruise control. If your vehicle contains such  
equipment, consult the dealer for the make of vehicle and enlist his/her aid in determining if they  
will perform normally while transmitting.  
n Power Cable Connection  
The transceiver operates in 2 V negative ground systems only! Check the battery polarity and  
voltage of the vehicle before installing the transceiver.  
1 Check for an existing hole, conveniently located in the firewall, where the  
power cable can be passed through.  
If no hole exists, use a circle cutter to drill a hole, then install a rubber grommet.  
2 Run the power cable through the firewall and into the engine compartment.  
3 Connect the red lead to the positive (+) battery terminal and the black lead  
to the negative (–) battery terminal.  
Place the fuse as close to the battery as possible.  
4 Coil the surplus cable and secure it with a retaining band.  
Be sure to leave enough slack in the cables so the transceiver can be removed  
for servicing while keeping the power applied.

n Installing the Transceiver  
For passenger safety, install the transceiver securely using the supplied mounting bracket and  
screw set, so the transceiver will not break loose in the event of a collision.  
Note: Before installing the transceiver, check how far the mounting screws will extend below  
the surface. When drilling mounting holes, be careful not to damage vehicle wiring or parts.  
1 Mark the position of the holes in the dash, using the mounting bracket as a  
template. Using a 4.2 mm (5/32 inch) drill bit, drill the holes, then attach the  
mounting bracket using the supplied screws.  
Mount the transceiver within easy reach of the user and where there is sufficient  
space at the rear of the transceiver for cable connections.  
2 Connect the antenna and the supplied power cable to the transceiver.  
3 Slide the transceiver into the mounting bracket and secure it using the  
supplied hex-headed screws.  
4 Mount the optional microphone hanger in a location where it will be within  
easy reach of the user.  
The microphone and microphone cable should be mounted in a place where they  
will not interfere with the safe operation of the vehicle.  
When replacing the fuse in the DC power cable, be sure to replace it with a fuse of the same  
value. Never replace a fuse with one that is rated with a higher value.

t r AnSmit t ing / r eceiVing  
1 Select your desired zone and channel.  
2 Press the microphone PTT switch and speak into the microphone to transmit.  
Release the PTT switch to receive.  
For best sound quality at the receiving station, hold the microphone approximately  
.5 inches (3 ~ 4 cm) from your mouth.  
SCAN  
Scan monitors for signals on the transceiver channels. While scanning, the  
transceiver checks for a signal on each channel and only stops if a matching  
signal is present. There are two types of scans available.  
Single Scan: Monitors the channels of only the currently selected zone. If set up to  
scan the Priority channel, it will be scanned even if it is not in the selected zone.  
Multi Scan: Monitors the channels of every zone.  
To start/stop scanning, press the key programmed as Scan.  
“SCAN” and the  
icon appear on the display during scan.  
When a signal is detected, scan pauses at that channel. The transceiver will remain on  
the busy channel until the signal is no longer present, at which time scan resumes.  
Note: To use Scan, there must be at least 2 channels added to the scan sequence.  
chAnnel r ecAl l  
During scan, you can recall the last zone and channel/group ID on which you  
made a call by pressing the key programmed as CH/GID Recall. Scan will  
remain paused on the Recall channel until you press the key again.  
pr io r it y ScAn  
If a Priority channel has been programmed, the transceiver will automatically  
change to the Priority channel when a call is received on that channel, even if a  
call is being received on a normal channel.  
The  
icon appears on the display when the Priority channel is selected.  
t empo r Ar y chAnnel l o cko ut  
During scan, you can temporarily remove specific channels from the scanning  
sequence by pressing the key programmed as Scan Delete/Add while Scan is  
paused at the undesired channel. To temporarily remove a zone, press and hold  
Scan Delete/Add while Scan is paused at a channel in the undesired zone.  
The channel/zone is no longer scanned. However, when scanning is ended and  
restarted, the Scan settings return to normal.

SIGNALING  
Quiet t Al k (Qt )/ dig it Al Quiet t Al k (dQt )  
Your dealer may have programmed QT or DQT signaling on your transceiver  
channels. A QT tone/ DQT code is a sub-audible tone/code which allows you to  
ignore (not hear) calls from other parties who are using the same channel.  
o pt io nAl Sig nAl ing  
Your dealer may also program several types of optional signaling for your  
transceiver channels.  
5-Tone Signaling: Refer to “5-TONE SIGNALING” on page 0.  
DTMF Signaling: DTMF Signaling opens the squelch only when the transceiver  
receives a call containing a matching DTMF code.  
FleetSync Signaling: Refer to “Sel c al l (Sel ec t iv e c al l ing )” on page  
.
MDC-1200: MDC- 200 is a data system using Audio Frequency Shift Keying  
(AFSK). Transceivers communicate at a 200 baud rate, using 200 Hz and  
00 Hz tones.  
o per At o r Sel ect Abl e t o ne (o St )  
You can change the preset encode and decode tones for the selected channel.  
Up to 40 OST pairs can be pre-programmed by your dealer.

4 Use the transceiver the same as in a regular call.  
5 To exit OST mode and return to the preset encode/decode tones, press  
.
5-TONE SIGNALING  
5-tone Signaling opens the squelch only when the transceiver receives a matching  
call. Transceivers that do not transmit the correct tones will not be heard.  
Note: Your transceiver functions can include either 5-tone Signaling or FleetSync/ MDC- 200.
