Professional
Digital Licence Free Transceiver
- The IC-F4029SDR professional
digital licence-free transceiver
is compliant with ETSI TS 102
490 and EN 301 166-2 specifications.
Wityh the recent introduction
of the latest 6.25kHz ultra
narrow digital voice technologies,
the IC-F4029SDR bring users
better communication versatility
and quality because of digital
clarity, razor sharp signalling
performance and less congested
dedicated digital PMR channels.
With fantastic sound quality
and great features this product
will create new dimension in
communications for commercial
and private users alike.
DIGITAL PMR
446 FEATURES
The IC-4029SDR utilizes 4FSK/FDMA
modulation and 6.25kHz digital
narrow channel spacing, which
is half the channel spacing
of the existing analogue
PMR 446 system. This way,
the 100kHz band width allocated
for digital PMR 446 is efficiently
divided into 16 channels,
or twice the current analogue
voice channel capacity making
this product incredibly spectrum
efficient.
A Path from
analogue PMR 446 to digital
PMR 446
in
one unit
By changing the channel
setting, the IC-F4029SDR
can be used
on existing analogue PMR
446 channels. This provides
users with an upgrade path
from analogue PMR 446 to
digital PMR 446 in one
unit. Being analogue/digital
compatible,
any businesses or private
users currently using analogue
PMR446 can begin replacing
their analogue radios with
IC-F4029SDR and enjoy digital
quality as well as relief
from congested spectrum.
32-status
messages
32 codes of prefixed status
messages can be sent
and received. 16-character
messages and 6 types
of
alert beeps sound that
for call reception, are
programmable for each message.
“Common ID” group
code
This function is similar
to an analogue CTCSS/DTCS
code. By setting 1–254
common ID codes, the IC-F4029SDR
opens its squelch only when
a matched code is received.
It provides quiet stand-by
and group call functions
while sharing a channel with
several groups. The code “255” is
the fixed code for an all
stations call.
Security of
digital voice
‘
Eavesdropping’ by current
scanner receivers is impossible
at this stage. Since there
are no other competing radios,
initial users will have a
high level of security in
digital voice communication
mode.
Additional
Digital Features
Group call functions (up
to 254 digital codes available)
Programmable
32 status message of up
to 16 characters each
can be sent to individual
or group member radios
when in digital mode. This
is
configurable by a PC
In
addition to Icom default
channel settings, other channel
zones are preprogrammed to
have matched settings with
Kenwood and Motorola PMR446
models currently on the market.
These radios can be sold
to match Motorola/Kenwood
current analogue configuration
reducing the necessity to
reprogram radios for customer’s
fleets consisting of non-
Icom radios.
ANALOGUE PMR 446 FEATURES
"Smart-Ring" and "Ringer" function
The “Smart-Ring” function
checks the availability of
your group members within
the operating range. The “Ringer” function
is used for manually sending
a ring tone instead of a
voice call. 16 types of ringing
tones are available.
Tone find
function
The tone find function
allows you to find a tone
used
in a channel to decode
a tone.
Built-in CTCSS/DTCS
50 CTCSS tones and 84 DTCS
tones provide quiet stand-by.
DTCS inverse mode is
also programmable.
Lithium-Ion
battery pack and rapid
charger as standard
The IC-F4029SDR series
shares Lithium-Ion battery
packs
with the IC-F3062, IC-F3022,
IC-F34G and IC-F15 series.
The IC-F4029SDR series
is supplied with the
BP-231
1150mAh li-Ion battery
pack (provides 9 hours*
of operating
time) and BC-160 desktop
rapid charger as standard.
An optional BP-232 larger
capacity battery pack and
BP-230 economical battery
packs are also available.
Lithium-Ion batteries provide
larger capacity and a longer
operating time than a Ni-Cd
or Ni-MH battery pack and
allow flexible charging
without memory effect.
Small and
lightweight body
The IC-F4029SDR has a fixed
type antenna and weighs
just 280g (including
BP-231). It measures only
53 x 195
x 32.5mm including the
antenna. The aluminium
die-cast chassis and
polycarbonate casing combination
is designed
for durability. A rugged
dual-rail guide chassis
securely locks the battery
to the back of the radio.
Alphanumeric
LCD
The IC-F4029SDR incorporates
an 8-character 14 segment
alphanumeric LCD. An
automatic LCD backlight
is employed
for night-time operation.
IC-F4029SDR
Additional Features
Shares the same battery
packs and accessories as
the IC-F15/F34 series Power on password 2-step Power save function
