Vertex Standard VX-160U Manuale utente
Introduction
This manual provides technical information necessary for servicing the VX-160U and VX-180U FM Transceiver.
Servicing this equipment requires expertise in handling surface-mount chip components. Attempts by non-qualified
persons to service this equipment may result in permanent damage not covered by the warranty, and may be illegal in
some countries.
Two PCB layout diagrams are provided for each double-sided circuit board in the transceiver. Each side of is referred
to by the type of the majority of components installed on that side (“leaded” or “chip-only”). In most cases one side has
only chip components, and the other has either a mixture of both chip and leaded components (trimmers, coils, electrolytic
capacitors, ICs, etc.), or leaded components only.
While we believe the technical information in this manual to be correct, VERTEX STANDARD assumes no liability
for damage that may occur as a result of typographical or other errors that may be present. Your cooperation in pointing
out any inconsistencies in the technical information would be appreciated.

Battery Pack Installation and Removal
UTo install the battery, hold the transceiver with your
left hand, so your palm is over the speaker and your
thumb is on the top of the belt clip. Insert the battery
pack into the battery compartment on the back of the
radio while tilting the Belt Clip outward, then close
the Battery Pack Latch until it locks in place with a
“Click.”

Display Icons & Indicators (VX-180 Only)
UTo remove the battery, turn the radio off and remove
any protective cases. Open the Battery Pack latch on
the bottom of the radio, then slide the battery down-
ward and out from the radio while holding the Belt
Clip.
Caution!
Do not attempt to open any of the rechargeable Ni-
Cd packs, as they could explode if accidentally short-
circuited.
Low Battery Indication
UAs the battery discharges during use, the voltage gradu-
ally becomes lower. When the battery voltage reaches
6.3 volts, substitute a freshly charged battery and re-
charge the depleted pack. The TX/BUSY indicator on
the top of the radio will blink red (on the VX-180, the
“” icon will appear on the LCD) when the battery
voltage is low.
UAvoid recharging Ni-Cd batteries often with little use
between charges, as this can degrade the charge capac-
ity. We recommend that you carry an extra, fully-
charged pack with you so the operational battery may
be used until depletion (this “deep cycling” technique
promotes better long-term battery capacity).
