Operating Instructions
Please read and observe the following information and keep the operating manual
nearby for future reference!
The WTF 800 operates on 8 channels. The radio is built according the IPX7 standard. This
implies that it is submersible: it will oat in water and it can be held 1 meter below the water
surface during 30 minutes without being damaged. After your radio is submerged in water,
you might notice that the sound is distorted. This is because there is still water remaining in
and around the speaker and microphone. Just shake the radio to clear excess water, and
the sound should return to normal.If your radio is exposed to salt water, clean your radio
thoroughly with fresh water, and dry it before turning it on.
Safety information
Risk of explosion!
Only use the power adapter plugs supplied!
Only use batteries supplied or ones of the same type!
Always treat batteries with due care and attention and only use batteries as described.
Never use standard and rechargeable batteries together. Never use rechargeable
batteries or standard batteries with different capacities or charge statuses together.
Never use standard or rechargeable batteries which are damaged.
Risk of suffocation through small objects, packaging and protective foil!
Keep children away from the product and its packaging!
Risks to health and the environment from batteries!
Never open, damage or swallow batteries or allow them to pollute the environment.
They could contain toxic and ecologically harmful heavy metals.
If the cover of the antenna is damaged, do not touch because when an antenna comes
in contact with the skin, a minor burn may result when transmitting.
Keep the PMR at least 15 centimetres away from a pacemaker.
Turn your PMR OFF as soon as interference is taking place with medical equipment.
Areas with potentially explosive atmospheres are often, but not always, clearly marked.
They include fuelling areas such as below deck on boats, fuel or chemical transfer or
storage facilities; areas where the air contains chemicals or particles, such as grain,
dust or metal powders; and any other area where you would normally be advised to turn
off your vehicle engine.
In some countries it is prohibited to use your PMR while driving a vehicle. In this case
leave the road before using the device.
Turn your PMR OFF when on board an aircraft when instructed to do so. Any use of the
PMR must be in accordance with airline regulations or crew instructions.
Turn your PMR OFF in any facilities where posted notices instruct you to do so.
Hospitals or health care facilities may be using equipment that is sensitive to external
RF energy.
Replacing or modifying the antenna may affect the PMR radio specications and violate
the CE regulations. Unauthorised antennas could also damage the radio.
Do not touch the antenna while transmitting, it could affect the range.
Remove the batteries if the device is not going to be used for a long period.
Intended purpose
It can be used for recreational purposes. For example: to keep in contact during
travelling with 2 or more cars, biking, skiing.
To communicate between PMR devices they need to be set all on the same channel and
sub-channel (CTCSS/DCS) and within receiving range (up to max.10 km in open eld).
Since these devices use free frequency bands (channels), all devices in operation share
these channels(total 8 channels). Therefore, privacy is not garanteed. Anybody with a PMR
set to your channel can overhear the conversation. If you want to communicate (transmitting
a voice signal) you need to press the key (15). Once this key pressed, the device will go into
transmit mode and you can speak into the microphone. All other PMR devices in range, on
the same channel and in standby mode (not transmitting) will hear your message. You need
to wait until the other party stops transmitting before you can reply to the message. At the
end of each transmission the unit will send a beep if the Roger Beep is enable (See Roger
Beep On/Off”). To reply, just press the key (15)and speak into the microphone.
If 2 or more users press the key (15) at the same time the receiver will receive only the
stongest signal and the other signal(s) will be supressed. Therefore you should only transmit
a signal (press key (15)) when the channel is free.
The range of radio waves is strongly affected by obstacles such as buildings, concrete/metal
structures, the unevenness of the landscape, woodland, plants, … This implies that the
range between two or more PMR‘s may in some extreme cases be restricted to a maximum
of a few tens of meters. You will soon notice that PMR works best when there is a minimum
of obstacles between users.

GETTING STARTED
Installing / Removing the belt clip
To remove the belt clip from the unit, push the belt clip (B) towards the antenna, while
pulling the clip tab (A).
When re-installing the belt clip, a click indicates that the belt clip is locked into position.
Installing the batteries
Open the battery compartment. Use a screwdriver or a coin to turn the screw counter
clockwise.
Put in the battery. The battery pack label will indicate the correct position of the battery.
Before closing the battery door, check the rubber seal around the battery compartment.
Make sure that the seal is in good condition and that there is no foreign matter under the
seal.
Close the battery compartment door and tighten the screw again (clockwise).
Charging the batteries
Plug one end of the supplied adapter into an easy accessible electric socket and the
other end into the connector on the backside of the desktop charger.
Make sure that the radio is turned OFF.
Put the radio in the charger.
The charging LED will turn on if it’s properly inserted and charging.
It will take about 16 hours to fully charge the Ni-Mh battery.
Turning the Unit ON/OFF
Press and hold the key (3) for 2 seconds. The unit will “beep” and the LCD display will
display the current channel.
Receiving a signal
The unit is continuously in the receive mode when the unit is switched ON and not
transmitting.
Transmitting a signal
In order for other people to receive your transmission, they must also be on the same
channel and have set the same sub-channel
Press and hold the key (15) to transmit. The TX symbol is displayed.
Hold the unit in a vertical position with the microphone 10cm from the mouth and speak
into the microphone (8).
Release the key (15) when you want to stop transmitting.
Changing channels
Use the key (13 / 12) to go to a higher or lower channel.
After selecting the desired channel, press the key (6) to conrm.
Sub -channels
License free PMR radio‘s operating on the 446 MHz frequency band, have 8 available
radio channels. If there are many PMR users in your neighborhood, there is a chance that
some of these users are operating on the same radio channel. To prevent that you receive
signals from other users, sub-channels have been integrated. Two PMR radio‘s will only be
able to communicate with each other when they are operating on the same radio channel
and when they have selected exactly the same sub-channel.
There are two kind of sub-channels :
• Continuous Tone Coded Squelch System (CTCSS)
• Digital Coded Squelch (DCS)
When using CTCSS, a low frequency tone (between 67 and 250 Hz) will be transmitted
along with the voice signal. There are 38 available tones to choose from. You are free to
choose one of these 38 available tones. Due to ltering, these tones will generally not be
audible so they will not disturb the communication. DCS is similar to CTCSS, but instead
of sending a continuous tone of a selected frequency, a digital data transmission is added
to the radio signal. This Digital Code is transmitted at a really low rate, around 134 bits per
second (the code is 23 bits long). Only the PMR‘s of the latest generation will support DCS.
There are 83 available DCS codes that can be used. Since earlier models will only support
CTCSS it will be better to use DCS to prevent that other users will be audible during your
PMR conversations.
Changing sub-channels
Press the key (11), the current selected sub-channel (or OFF in case of no sub-channel)
will blink.
Use the key (13 / 12) to select the desired subchannel:
1..38: CTCSS code (1...38)
39..121: DCS code (1...83)
Press the key (6) to conrm
Making a call
When you press the key (10) you will transmit a call tone to the other users on the same
channel/sub-channel.
This will indicate that you want to start a conversation.

mode.
Press the key (14) again to disable the monitor function.
Channel Scan
Channel scan performs a search for active signals in an endless loop from channel 1 to
8. Once an active channel is found, the scanning will stop so you can listen to the
conversation. If there is no more activity on the found channel, the scanning will resume
after two seconds. If you press the key (15) on the found channel, the scan function
will end and the radio will remain on this channel.
