Note 1: Tech Side TS-T9+ is able to display dual frequency. In frequency mode,
the display will show the transmission and recepon frequency; while in channel
mode both channels are displayed.
Note 2: In frequency or channel mode, press the A / B key to switch from the
‘A’ channel / frequency (shown above) to the ‘B’ channel / frequency (shown
below).
The symbol next to the channel on the display indicates the channel currently
in use.
Menu funcons:
Squelch level (SQL) - Menu N°0
This funcon allows you to adjust the squelch to 10 predened levels:
1. level 0: open squelch, in this way it is possible to receive all signals, even the
weakest, however all background noise will also be received.
2. level 1- 9: squelch set to gradually increasing levels; level 1 (squelch at mini-
mum level), level 9 (squelch at maximum level).
With the squelch at maximum level only the strongest signals will be received.
Frequency step (STEP) - Menu N°1
With this funcon you can select the desired frequency step.
The available values are: 2.5 / 5.0 / 6.25 / 10.0 / 12.5 / 25KHz
Note: in channel mode this funcon cannot be enabled.
Output power (TXP) - Menu N°2
In this menu, select the high or low output power.
Low power = 1W; high power = VHF 8W / UHF 5W
Note: selecng the high output power improves the call quality, while the low
power reduces the baery consumpon. In channel mode, you can switch from
high to low power by pressing the rapid key “#” (Menu No. 55).
Baery saving (SAVE) - Menu N°3
The Power Save funcon allows a reducon in baery consumpon when the radio
is in standby mode.
You can choose between 5 opons: OFF / 1: 1/1: 2/1: 3/1: 4.
VOX funcon (VOX) - Menu N°4
This funcon allows you to acvate conversaons without pressing any key: simply
speak in the direcon of the microphone and communicaon
will be automacally acvated.
You can choose between 11 levels: OFF-10. 1 is the highest level, 10 the lowest.
Note: the higher the set level, the higher the sensivity of the microphone.
The VOX funcon cannot be enabled during scanning or in FM radio mode.
Wide / narrow bandwidth (W / N) - Menu N°5
In this menu you can set the operang bandwidth.
WIDE: 25KHz, NARROW: 12.5 KHz
Note: Broadband is usually used.
This funcon cannot be used in channel mode.
Backlight (ABR) - Menu N°6
This funcon can be used to adjust the switching o (1-5s) of the display backlight.
Dual Watch (TDR) - Menu No. 7
When this funcon is acvated, you will receive on the frequencies of channels A
and channel B. (not simultaneously) If the radio receives a signal, it will ash in
correspondence of the corresponding channel or frequency.
Note: when the Dual Watch funcon is acvated, you can change the parameters
of the A / B channels or frequency.
Further informaon Menu N°34
Keypad beep (BEEP) - Menu N°8
When this funcon is acve, the radio emits a beep when you press any key.
Time-Out-Timer (TOT) - Menu N°9
This funcon, when acve, prevents the transmission from being prolonged by
temporarily blocking it if used beyond a pre-set maximum me (for example 15s,
30s, 45s, etc).
Recepon with DCS codes (R-DCS) - Menu N°10
DCS codes can be added to channels to create your own. By seng the DCS codes
it is possible to ignore unwanted signals from other users transming on the same
frequency. Communicaon is possible
only with users who use the same DCS code.
You can choose between:
OFF: disabled
R-DCS: D023N-D754N DCS Normal
R-DCS: D023I-D754I DCS Inverted
Note: TS-T9+ has 105 groups of normal and inverted DCS codes. This
funcon cannot be acvated and used in channel mode.
Recepon with CTCSS tones (R-CTCSS) - Menu N°11
As with DCS codes, CTCSS are also sub-tones that can be added to channels to
create a personal one.
You can choose between:
OFF
CTCSS (67.0 to 254.1 Hz)
Note: the CTCSS tone groups are 50. In channel mode the CTCSS cannot be en-
abled. To search for the sub-tone used by other operators go to Menu N°53
Transmission of the DCS codes - (T-DCS) - Menu N°12
In this menu you can acvate a transmission DCS code.
Note: there are 105 groups of DCS codes. DCS codes cannot be enabled in channel
mode.
Transmission with CTCSS tones (T-CTCSS) - Menu N°13
To set a transmission CTCSS tone you can choose between:
OFF (disabled)
CTCSS (67.0 to 254.1 Hz)
Note: the CTCSS tone groups are 50. In channel mode the CTCSS cannot be
enabled.
Voice funcon (VOICE) - Menu N°14
The VOICE funcon informs you of every operaon or selecon you are making.
ANI-ID (ANI-ID) - Menu N°15

through the oponal programming soware. A maximum of 5 digits can be entered.
DTMFST (DTMFST) - Menu N°16
This funcon allows you to transmit the DTMFST code
Group codes (S-CODE) - Menu N°17
