SAFETY
Warnings
[Failure to comply with warnings can result in personal injury, fire, or electric shock.]
qDO NOT operate this equipment with the antenna close to or touching eyes,
face, or exposed body parts.
qDO NOT hold the transmit (PTT) switch in the ‘ON’ position when not
communicating.
qDO NOT operate equipment at filling stations.
qDO NOT operate equipment in vicinity of explosives or explosive atmospheres.
qDO NOT operate equipment at high volume levels. Hearing experts advise
against continuous high volume operation. If you experience ringing in your
ears, reduce the volume level, or discontinue use.
qThe Power Amplifier Module used in the T6M mobile transceiver contains
beryllium oxide, which is extremely toxic. No instructions within this user guide
remove any of the transceiver's covers so users are not exposed to a potential
beryllium hazard. If the transceiver is to be disposed of, users must be aware of
current disposal regulations regarding equipment containing beryllium.

qThis device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the
condition that this device does not cause harmful interference.
qYou are required to obtain a station licence before transmitting from your mobile
equipment.
qThis equipment is only licenced for operation on 25 kHz channel spacing.
Operation on 8.33 kHz channel spacing is restricted to European customers.
qThe mobile transceiver power output must not exceed the output necessary for
satisfactory technical operation taking account of local conditions and the area
to be covered.
qThe mobile transceiver's frequency and parameters should be checked by
authorized service personnel before use, and at least yearly thereafter.

About this User Guide
This user guide describes the purpose, installation, and operation of the
Park Air Electronics (PAE) T6M mobile transceiver. How to programme the required
channel frequencies and operating modes using the optional programming kit is also
fully described.
Introduction to the T6M Mobile Transceiver
The T6M multichannel mobile transceiver provides communication within the VHF
aeronautical frequency band 118 to 136.9916 MHz. The transceiver provides a nominal
8 watt amplitude modulated (AM) output, and operates on both 25 kHz and 8.33 kHz
spaced channel frequencies.
Designed for installation within a vehicle, the transceiver operates from a +13.2 volt dc
supply. For vehicles that use a 24 V dc system, or when there must be isolation
between the battery and equipment, a suitable dc to dc converter must be used.
Operating Modes
Three operating modes are available: Normal, Priority, and Scan.
Normal Mode
In normal mode, any channel frequency programmed into the transceiver can be
selected using the front panel keys. Up to 760 channel frequencies can be programmed
into the radio's personality.
T6M User Guide
Page 9
Priority Mode
Priority mode allows faster access to frequently used channels. Up to 15 of the channel
frequencies that are available in Normal mode can be programmed into the priority list.
Scan Mode
If scan mode is selected, the radio scans a number of predefined channels searching
for a ‘busy’ one. When a busy channel is found, and depending on the programmed
options, the radio remains tuned to that channel. Up to 15 scan groups can be set up,
each group containing up to 15 channel frequencies.
Programming the Transceiver's Personality
The radio's ‘personality’ is programmed into its internal memory and defines up to
760 channel frequencies, the required operating modes, and various secondary
options. When a T6M is received from PAE, the personality is either:
qA personality programmed to the user's specific requirements.
or,
qA default personality that covers the 760 channels (25 kHz spaced) available in
the VHF aeronautical frequency band. No frequencies are allocated to the
Priority list, and no scan groups are set.
A programming kit is available from PAE. This allows a new personality to be
programmed into the radio at any time.
The kit comprises software loaded on a CD-ROM or floppy disk, and a programming
lead. An IBM™ compatible laptop, or Personal Computer (PC) running Microsoft
Windows™ 95 or 98 must be available to reprogramme the radio.
To order the programming kit, contact PAE quoting part number 70-T6MPMKIT.
