Setup Mode Programming
•
The following series of procedures is designed to allow you to set the programmable
features of your radio. Correctly following these steps results in a minimal amount of
radio setup programming time.
NOTE
When in the Setup mode, if you stop programming for longer than 15 seconds,
your entry will be saved and the radio will go back to the Marine Standby
mode. When you return to Setup mode and continue programming you will
see the last “value” displayed. While in the Setup mode, you will not receive
any signal reception.
Programming these features will allow you to customize certain features of this radio
to enhance your “On-Water” audio needs.
Start from Marine Standby mode to begin Marine (VHF) Setup programming.
Press and hold the Call/Enter/Setup button for two (2) seconds to enter the
programming mode.

Getting Started
High/Medium/Low (H-M-L) Power Button
Your radio can transmit selectively at 1, 3 or 6 watts of
power (5 watts maximum in Australia). Cobra suggests
you maintain the low power setting for short-range
communications. You will conserve battery life and avoid
overpowering nearby stations with a low power setting
signal. Use the high power setting for long-range
communications or when you do not receive a response
to a signal sent at 1 watt.
To Toggle Between H-M-L Power Modes:
Press the H-M-L Power button. The LCD will show
which mode is in effect. Some channels are restricted
for a maximum use of 1 watt. Your radio will
automatically set the power to Low Power mode
when you select those channels.
NOTE
Some channels, frequency bands and countries of use
might not be able to operate in High Power mode.
Call /Enter/Setup Button
The Call/Enter/Setup button has multiple functions. It is
generally used in the following ways:
n Press and release to transmit your unique Call Tone signal
to another radio.
n Press and hold to enter any Setup menu.
n Functions as an Enter button when making a selection
in any Setup menu.
