Albrecht Contact Owner’s Manual

Introduction

Tectalk Contact is a palm-sized communicator that you can carry almost anywhere. Use it as

well as privately radio at shopping malls, amusement parks, or sports events to contact family

and friends, or in a neighborhood watch for vital communications, or also for commercial use

on construction sites, for motor bike driving schools or maintenance people.

Tectalk Contact has 8 channels. You can talk with other PMR users whose communicators are

turned to the same channel as yours. With the auto-squelch feature, you will not hear anything

until the sound quality is reasonably clear. Tone Squelch (CTCSS) feature also keeps your

transceiver quiet except for the calls you want to hear.

The radio is equipped with VOX operation. i.e. you can simply talk to the microphone and the

voice will be transmitted to your companion automatically. When operating with external

microphone and earphone (not included), you can communicate with your friends without

pressing a key. This hand-free feature is very useful when you are driving or cycling.

Power ON / OFF & Volume Control

Standby Mode

Transmit & Receive

At the upper right corner of the transceiver, you

may find a Volume Knob.

To turn On the transceiver, rotate the Volume Knob

clockwise until a tick sound is heard. Rotate the

knob further to increase the sound volume.

Rotate the knob anti-clockwise may decrease the

sound volume and eventually Power Off the

transceiver when a tick sound is heard again.

After the PMR is turned On, it is in the so-called Standby Mode in which it

awaits keys to be pressed by users and monitors the preset channel at the same

time. If there is no function from user or receive no signal after a minute, an in-

built energy saving system will switch itself on automatically, which further

reduces the power consumption and hence lengthen standby time significantly.

The Monitor Key temporarily disables the automatic squelch function.

Use this function when the signal received becomes too weak and can

only be heard in short sudden bursts through the squelch. Therefore, you

will have a better chance of continuing your radio conversation with the

other end.

In order to make or to answer a call, press and hold down the PTT key,

then talk at your normal voice level to the microphone. The “TX” icon

will appear on the LCD, whilst the unit begins transmission.

Once you press PTT key, a Transmit Power Save function is enabled and

it will automatically stop your transmission after 2 minutes. The purpose

of the function is to prevent prolonged continuous transmission since it

may cause unnecessary interference to other radio users and most

importantly, consume all your battery power. It is helpful for example, if

you keep the PTT key pressed accidentally.

VOX Operation

Key Lock

Traditionally, you should press and hold PTT key during conversation and release it

after conversation so as not to occupy the channel. With the VOX operation mode, the

voice transmission is started automatically once you speak at the microphone and stop

after speaking. This is very helpful when you are driving, jogging or cycling.

¬To Enable/Disable VOX function, press MODE

key twice at Standby Mode, the LCD will show a

blinking “TX” icon and VOX status (“oF”, “Lo”

and “Hi”).

-To alter VOX settings, simply press UP or

DOWN key and the setting is automatically stored

in memory.

“oF” – VOX OFF

“Lo” – VOX LOw Sensitivity

“Hi” – VOX HIgh Sensitivity

While selecting VOX setting, user can speak at the

microphone gently to test which level (“Hi” or “Lo”)

he feels comfortable. Once PMR detected voice, it

will transmit automatically and “TX” icon will stop

blinking.

Notes: if VOX is enabled, ”TX” icon will FLASH at

Standby Mode as an indication

Key Lock, disables UP, DOWN and MODE keys, except PTT and MON. This feature is

used to protect your channel and tone setting from changing accidentally. If key lock is

enabled, an icon will appear on LCD and beep tone can be heard if keys are pressed.

Key Lock can be enabled either

automatically or manually:

Automatic – let the transceiver alone for

about 30 seconds.

Manual – Press and hold MODE key for

more than one second.

To disable Key Lock, simply Press and Hold

MODE key for a second
