Basic LTR®/conventional mode operation
Both LTR® trunking and conventional channels are programmable on a radio. Group,
selective (DTMF), and phone call are available in LTR® mode.
IP55 dust-protection and water jet resistance
The IC-F3161/D series meets IP55 requirements for dust-protection and water jet
resistance. Its durable construction is backed up by the aluminum die-cast chassis
and polycarbonate casing, allowing reliable operation under harsh weather and environmental
conditions.
Lithium-Ion battery pack
The supplied 2000mAh Li-Ion battery pack, BP-232N, provides 14 hours*
of operating time. The optional battery case BP-240 provides a convenient back up
and great reassurance in an emergency.
*Typical operation Tx:Rx:Stand-by=5:5:90, power save on
Most popular signalings built-in
The 2-Tone, 5-Tone, CTCSS, DTCS and MDC signaling capabilities are built-in for
group communication or selective calling. The radio can decode ten 2-Tone codes
or eight 5-Tone codes on a channel. When a matched tone is received, the following
actions are programmable for each code.
- Beep sound
- Bell icon
- Answer back call
- Auto TX
- Radio stun/kill/revive
- Scan
MDC 1200 Compatible
The following selective calling and ANI features are available with the built-in
MDC signaling.
- PTT ID
- SelCall
- Radio check
- Radio stun/revive
- 500 Aliases
- Status message/request
- Call alert
- Emergency, emergency mic monitoring
Voting mode scanning
The voting mode scanning detects the signal strength level of repeater stations
and automatically selects the strongest station, useful for roaming between 2 or
more repeater sites. Once you program the voting mode to a memory zone, you can
easily start voting mode operation by changing the zone setting.
Full dot-matrix LCD
Using a large full dot-matrix LCD (32 18 mm), the IC-F3161/D series shows upper
and lower case characters clearly. The display setting is selectable from 1 line,
12 characters or 2 lines 24 characters via programming. The bottom row shows assigned
functions to the [P0] to [P3] buttons.
Enhanced audio
The IC-F3161/D series employs a BTL amplifier that increases the audio output and
the built-in audio compander provides clear, low noise communications.
Lone worker function
When the radio is not operated for a preset period, a beep sounds and a button push
is required. If no button is pushed within that preset time, an emergency signal
automatically transmits and alerts your co-worker or dispatcher to any potential
trouble.
Built-in inversion-type voice scrambler
The built-in inversion type voice scrambler*
provides secure conversation as standard. When a more secure system is required,
the 32 code non-rolling-type voice scrambler UT-109R and 1020 code rolling type
UT-110R are available as an option.
*Inversion type voice scrambler is not compatible with UT-109/UT-110
voice scrambler.
