The VX-4000 Series are full-featured FM transceivers designed for flexible mobile and

base station business communications in the VHF Low-Band (60/25 Watts: program-

mable), VHF High-Band (50/25 Watts: programmable) and UHF (40/25 Watts: program-

mable) Land Mobile Bands. Each model is designed for reliable business communica-

tions in a wide variety of applications, with a wide range of operating capability provided

by its leading-edge design.

The 250-channels memories can each be programmed with a 8-character channel name. A

39-tone programmable CTCSS encoder/decoder is built in as standard.

Important channel frequency data is stored in EEPROM and flash memory on the CPU,

and is easily programmable by dealers using a personal computer and the VERTEX STAN-

DARD CT-71 Programming Cable and CE35 Software.

Special built-in features include:

rThe 250-channels memories can each be programmed with a 8-character channel

name.

rCTCSS (Continuous Tone Coded Squelch System);

rDCS (Digitally Coded Squelch);

rExtensive Selective Calling selections; and

rTwo sets of scanning channels, one set preset by the dealer and another which is

operator-selectable.

Basic Operation of the Transceiver

Important! - Before turning on the radio the first time, confirm that the power connec-

tions have been made correctly and that a proper antenna is connected to the antenna jack.

Switching Power ON/OFF

Push the POWER switch turn on the radio. The display will become illuminated.

The radio will start up on the last channel used prior to shut-down during the previ-

ous operating session.

The display should show either a channel number or scan mode indicator (DSC,

USC, GDS, GUS, PDS, PUS, DDW or UDW). If “ERR” is displayed instead, the

transceiver has not yet been programmed with channel frequencies; switch off the

power and contact your network administrator or VERTEX STANDARD dealer. If

a scan mode indicator is displayed, you can press the SCAN button to display a

channel number, and then press either the UP (p) or DOWN (q) button to change

channels.

Setting the Volume

Turn the VOL knob clockwise to increase the volume, and counterclockwise to de-

crease it.

Transmitting

To transmit, wait until the “BUSY” indicator is off (the channel is not in use), and

press the PTT (Push-To-Talk) switch on the side of the microphone (the “TX” indi-

cator will appear or the “TX” indicator will glow red). While holding in the PTT

switch, speak across the face of the microphone in a clear, normal voice level, and

then release the PTT switch to receive.

Automatic Time-Out Timer

If the selected channel has been programmed for automatic time-out, you must limit

the length of each transmission. While transmitting, a beep will sound five seconds

before time-out. Another beep will sound just before the deadline; the “TX” indica-

tor will disappear and transmission will cease soon thereafter. To resume transmit-

ting, you must release the PTT and wait for the “penalty timer” to expire (if you press

the PTT before this timer expires, the timer restarts, and you will have to wait an-

other “penalty” period).

Selecting Groups and Channels

mPress the UP (p) or DOWN (q) button (repeatedly, if necessary) to select a dif-

ferent group of channels.

mTurn the CHANNEL selector knob to select a different channel within the current

group.

VX-4000 Operating Manual

Scanning Modes

There are eight scanning modes, described in the list below. Each channel can be

independently enabled or disabled for scanning; only channels selected for scanning

within the enabled group are scanned. Also, as mentioned before, each group can

have up to two priority channels which are scanned more often than the non-priority

channels.

The SCAN modes and their corresponding displays are as follows:

Display Scanning Function

DSC Dealer Scan (only within the current group)

USC User Scan: only user-selected channels (only within the current group)

GDS Group Dealer Scan: scan all Dealer-selected channels in all groups

GUS Group User Scan: scan all User-selected channels in all groups

PDS Priority Dealer Scan: DSC plus priority channel(s)

PUS Priority User Scan: USC plus user priority channel(s)

DDW Dealer Dual Watch: Monitor one channel and priority channel(s)

UDW User Dual Watch: Monitor User-selected channel and priority channel(s)

Scanning Operation

With the microphone in its hanger, press the assigned Programmable Function

Button of the “SCAN” momentarily to activate scanning. Typically, “DSC” will

initially appear on the display, indicating Dealer Channel Scan as the scanning mode.

If you wish to change to one of the modes described in the list above, press the

assigned Programmable Function Button of the “SEL” button repeatedly until

that mode appears on the display.

If you pick up the microphone while no signal is being received, operation will shift

to a particular channel. Which channel that will be depends on which of the follow-

ing options the dealer has programmed for off-hook channel selection:

Scan Start Channel

Lifting the microphone causes operation to revert to the group and channel last se-

lected before scanning started or resumed.

Priority Revert

Lifting the microphone activates the Priority 1 channel in the current group. If no

channel is assigned level 1 priority, operation will be on the Priority 2 channel. If no

priority channels have been assigned, operation reverts to the Scan Start Channel.

Last Busy

Lifting the microphone causes operation to revert to the group and channel where

activity was last detected. If no activity was detected since turning on the radio,

operation reverts to the Scan Start Channel.

VX-4000 Operating Manual

How to Select Channels to be Scanned

If your radio has been configured by your Dealer to allow you, the operator, to make

changes to the list of channels to be scanned, you can make these changes by following

this simple process:

ÀPress and hold in the SEL button; while holding this button in, press the POWER

button to turn the radio on. You may now release the ?? button.

ÁPress the ?? button, as necessary, until the Memory Group and Memory Channel

numbers will appear in small characters in the right side of the display area.

ÂYou may now push the ?? key momentarily as many times as necessary to choose

the Memory Group within which you wish to make changes to the channel scan

list. Once you have selected the desired Memory Group, you may use the UP (p)

or DOWN (q) button to choose a particular channel within the current group.

Pressing the ?? button will change the scanning status of the selected channel.

If you are adding the channel to those you wish to scan, pressing the ?? button

causes a “U” appear on the display, indicating that the channel has been added to

the User Scan List. If you are deleting the channel from the User Scan List (the

channel's data itself will not be deleted; the channel just will not be scanned), the

“U” will disappear.

ÃRepeat step 3 for each channel you wish to enable or disable for scanning.

ÄWhen you are done making changes to the channels you wish to scan, press and

hold in the ?? button for more than 1.5 second. Operation will return to its normal

status, and the display will revert to its previous appearance.
