Motorola T5200 - Manual (Page 4)

To Communicate
Read this manual carefully and make sure you know how to properly operate radio before use.
Motorola Talkabout two-way radios have 14 channels. To communicate with others, all radios in your group must
be set to the same channel. Other FRS radios, such as the T5200, may have Interference Eliminator Codes,
which must be turned off or set to zero for proper communication with T5100 radios.
Turn The Radio On:
1. Rotate Power/Volume knob clockwise until you hear a click. Radio will beep and LED Indicator Light will flash
to confirm.The display will show current channel and code (T5200 only). LED will flash every three seconds.
2. To turn radio off, rotate Power/Volume knob counter clockwise until you hear a click and display disappears.
Note: All icons on the display will light up briefly, some of which may not be supported by your radio.
Monitor Button:
The Monitor (mon) button lets you hear the radio’s volume level when you are not receiving so you can adjust
the volume. It is also used to check activity on current channel before transmitting.
Channel Busy Indicator:
The radio also has a Channel Busy Indicator where the LED will also flash twice per second to indicate the
channel frequency is in use.
Adjust The Volume:
Rotate Power/Volume knob while holding down the Monitor button until you reach a comfortable listening
level. Rotate knob clockwise to increase and counter clockwise to decrease volume.
