6. Transmitting [ PTT ]
To transmit depress and hold the key ( 1 ) [ PTT ]. The TX control LED ( 6 ) lights up. The
sensitivity of the microphone ( 18 ) has been set to give good results speaking normally at
a distance of 2 - 4 inches. Speaking too loudly will cause distortions and make the signal
difficult to understand. While the set is in the transmit mode there is no key entry possible
and the receiver is muted. On completion of the transmission release the PTT key and the
set will revert to receiving mode. The RX LED ( 6 ) now lights up.
7. Channel Scanning [ SC ]
Before selecting the SCAN function set the squelch control ( 13 ) [ SQ / ASQ ] according
to Para " 2 " because this function does not work with unmuted receiver. Depress now the
key ( 14 ) [ SC ]. The activated SCAN function will be indicated by LED ( 10 ) [ SC ]. In the
display the channels are stepping upwards. SCAN stops on the first occupied channel,
where a signal can trigger the squelch threshold. The SCAN function is terminated now.
8. Channel 9 [ C9 ]
The priority channel 9 can be quickly selected by pressing the key ( 11 ) [ C9 ]. The chan-
nel number 9 lights up in the channel LED-display. No other function except transmitting
can be entered as long as the priority channel 9 is switched ON. Pressing [ C9 ] again will
cancel the function and the unit returns to the previous selected channel.
9. Microphone Gain [ MC ]
In case of loud background noise while transmitting it might be necessary to decrease the
microphone gain to improve the reception at the counter station. To do so please press the
key ( 12 ) [ MC ]. To increase the sensitivity again, press it once again. The LED ( 9 ) [ MC ]
lights up if the microphone sensitivity is high.
10. Call Tone [ SIGNAL ]
If you press the transmit key ( 1 ) [ PTT ] together with the call key ( 4 ) [ SIGNAL ] a call
tone will be transmitted and can be heard by the partner-station providing it is switched on
the same channel and same mode.
11. External Speaker Jack [ EXT-SP ]
The ME-4 is equipped with a 3.5 mm phone socket ( 21 ) [ EXT-SP] at the rear panel to
connect an external speaker of 4 - 8 ohm impedance. At 4 ohms the speaker load can be
4 watts ( e.g. TEAM TS-500 ). When the external speaker is connected the internal speak-
er will be switched off.
12. External Signal Meter Jack [ S-METER ]
There is also at rear panel of ME-4 a socket ( 22 ) [ S-METER ] to connect an external
S-meter with a 2.5 mm plug ( e. g. TEAM SM 930 ). Please note that the external S-meter
shows only the relative fieldstrength of the incoming signal. The signal strength at the
receiving station can be either measured with a S-meter or estimated by the own impres-
sion.

Safety Instruction
Drivers must keep attention about traffic rules by using the transceiver in a vehicle. Drivers
should use a handsfree microphone set like TEAM DM-106 VOX while driving.
The unit radiates RF energy in transmit mode. Please keep an eye on safety distance to
the antenna.
Servicing
The device must not be opened. Independent repairs or adjustment must not be carried out,
since each modification or unauthorised intervention will result in the cancelling of the oper-
ating permit and of the warranty and repair claims.
Do not use the set if it seems not to function correctly. Disconnect the set from the DC power
source immediately. If there is a defect, the authorised TEAM specialist dealer or TEAM
must be contacted in every case.
General Precautions
Protect the set from humidity and dust. Do not store at places or in the sun where the tem-
perature may rise and cause damage. The set can be cleaned by wiping with a soft cloth.
Do not use chemical products to clean the set.
