About the microSD card
The microSD and microSDHC cards are not available
from Icom. User supplied.
A microSD card of up to 2 GB or a microSDHC of up to
32 GB, can be used with the ID-51A/E.
Icom has checked the operation with the following mi-
croSD and microSDHC cards.
(As of September 2016)
Brand Type Memory size
SanDisk®
microSD 2 GB
microSDHC
4 GB
8 GB
16 GB
32 GB
The above list does not guarantee the card’s perfor-
mance.
Through the rest of this document, the microSD and
a microSDHC cards are simply called microSD cards
or the cards.
Icom recommends that you format all microSD cards
to be used with the transceiver, even preformatted mi-
croSD cards for PCs or other uses.
The following data can be stored onto the card:
Transceiver data
Memory channel contents, Repeater List, Your (UR)
call sign memory and GPS memory that are stored in
the transceiver.
Communication audio
The transmitted and received audio.
Communication log
The communication and receive history log.
Automatic answering voice audio in the DV mode
Voice audio to use with the Auto Reply function in the
DV Mode.
V
oice audio for the Voice TX function
Voice audio to use with the Voice TX function.
Position data from the GPS receiver
Position and time data from a GPS receiver that is in a
log file as a route.
Voice Recorder
The microphone audio.
Saving data onto the microSD card
NOTE:
Before using the microSD card, read the microSD
card instructions thoroughly.
If you do any of the following, the microSD card data
may be corrupted or deleted.
- Remove the microSD card from the transceiver
while accessing the microSD card.
- Change the external power source voltage while
accessing the microSD card.
- Start the vehicle engine while accessing the mi-
croSD card.
- Drop, impact or shake the microSD card.
Do not touch the contacts of the microSD card.
The transceiver takes a longer time to recognize a
high capacity microSD card.
The microSD card will get warm if used continuously
for a long period of time.
The microSD card has a certain lifetime, so data
reading or writing may not be possible after using it
for a long time period.
When reading or writing data is impossible, the
microSD card’s lifetime has ended. In this case,
purchase a new one. We recommend that you oc-
casionally make a backup file of the important data
onto your PC.
Icom is not responsible for any damage caused by
data corruption of a microSD card.
TIP: Occasionally saving the data is recommended.
Insert the card into the transceiver’s slot, and then
enter the Menu screen.

operation.
BE SURE to turn OFF the power while charging with
the supplied battery charger. Otherwise the attached
battery pack cannot be charged. (see page 4-6 for de-
tails)

DCharging note
When using the supplied battery charger (BC-167S),
be sure to turn OFF the transceiver power. Otherwise
the battery pack will not be charged completely, or it
will take much longer to charge.
When using an optional CP-12L, CP-19R or OPC-
254L, the battery pack can be charged with the
power ON. But by default, the battery pack cannot be
charged with the power ON, so you should turn OFF
the power before charging. (p. 16-79)
Even if rechargeable batteries, Ni-Cd or Ni-MH, are
installed in the optional BP-273 battery case, they
cannot be charged.
• Charging period: BP-271 approximately 3.0 hours
BP-272 approximately 4.5 hours
BE SURE to attach the battery pack
before connecting the DC cable.
Charging through the [DC IN] jack
BE SURE to replace the battery pack with a new one
approximately five years after manufacturing, even if
it still holds a charge. The material inside the battery
cells will become weak after a period of time, even
with little use. The estimated number of times you can
charge the pack is between 300 and 500. Even when
the pack appears to be fully charged, the operating
time of the transceiver may become short when:
Approximately five years have passed since the pack
was manufactured.
The pack has been repeatedly charged.

DAbout the battery replacement
When the alkaline batteries are almost exhausted,
“LOW BATTERY” is displayed and the battery icon
starts to blink. After 10 seconds, the transceiver power
is automatically turned OFF.
In that case, replace all batteries with new alkaline bat-
teries.
CAUTION:
When installing batteries, make sure they are all the
same brand, type and capacity. Also, do not mix new
and old batteries together.
Keep the battery terminals clean. It’s a good idea to
occasionally clean them.
Never incinerate used battery cells since the internal
battery gas may cause them to rupture.
Never expose a detached battery case to water. If
the battery case gets wet, be sure to wipe it dry be-
fore using it.
Never use batteries whose insulated covering is
damaged.
Remove the alkaline batteries when battery case is
not used. Otherwise the installed alkaline batteries
will exhausted due to built-in step-up converter.
TIP: A built-in step-up converter in the BP-273 in-
creases the voltage to 5.5 V DC.
Approximately 100 mW of output power is possi-
ble with the BP-273 operation. Also, the transmit
output power selection is disabled.
TIP: When the BP-273 battery case is attached to
the transceiver, the battery icon cannot display the
battery capacity of the alkaline batteries. The battery
icon stays “

ᐜ㔞⾲♧
඘㟁⾲♧
, and it does not reflect with the true
battery capacity.
NOTE:
The battery life may differ, depending on the operat-
ing style or the installed alkaline batteries.
The batteries may seem to have low capacity when
used in low temperatures, such as –10°C (+14°F) or
below. Keep the batteries warm in this case.

NOTE: If the charging indicator blinks orange for 10
seconds or more with the battery pack installed in the
transceiver, try charging the BP-271 alone. You can
also try regular charging the BP-271 attached to the
transceiver.
The optional BC-202 rapidly charges of the BP-271
and BP-272 Li-ion battery packs.
DCharging note
• Be sure to turn OFF the transceiver power.
When the transceiver power cannot be turned OFF,
detach the battery pack from the transceiver. Then
charge the battery pack by itself, or charge the bat-
tery using regular charging. Otherwise the battery
pack will not be charged (the charging indicator on
the BC-202 blinks orange about 10 second after the
battery pack is installed in BC-202).
The BC-202 desktop charger can only charge BP-
271 or BP-272 Li-ion battery packs. Other types of
rechargeable batteries, Ni-Cd or Ni-MH cannot be
charged.
If the charging indicator blinks orange, there may be
a problem with the battery pack or charger. If this oc-
curs, try charging the battery pack alone, without the
transceiver, or try using the standard (non-rapid) char-
ger. Contact your dealer if you have problems charg-
ing a new battery pack.
NEVER place the transceiver with the battery pack
to the desktop charger when the transceiver is con-
nected to the DC power source. This may cause the
charger’s malfunction and the charging indicator of
the charger lights red. In that case, disconnect the
power adapter from the charger, and then reconnect
the power adapter to the charger.
The optional CP-23L and OPC-515L can be used in-
stead of the supplied power adapter. Connect one of
these to the [DC 12-16V] jack.

Mid power (2.5 W)
Low2 power (1.0 W)
S-Low power (0.1 W)
R WARNING! NEVER transmit for long periods of time.
During prolonged transmissions at high power or mid
power, the transceiver radiates heat to protect itself
from overheating. The transceiver’s chassis will be-
come hot and may cause a burn.
To prevent overheating, the default setting of the time-out
timer function is set to 5 minutes (p. 16-75). Be careful
when the time-out timer function is turned OFF, or set to a
long time period, and you transmit for long periods.
DO NOT operate the transceiver where heat dissipa-
tion will be obstructed if the transceiver is also being
charged with an external power source. Poor heat dis-
sipation may cause a burn, warp the casing or dam-
age the transceiver.
NOTE: When the transceiver becomes hot, the trans-
ceiver’s heat protection function gradually reduces
the output power to approximately 2.5 watts, then it
stops transmission after that. This is done to protect
the transceiver itself until it can cool down.

D-STAR Introduction
The D-STAR repeater enables you to call a HAM sta-
tion near you, or around the world.
You can transmit and receive digital voice, including
lowspeed data, at the same time. You can transmit and
receive position data from the built-in GPS receiver.
You can make a transceiver to transceiver call (through
no repeater) in the DR screen.
About the DR (D-STAR Repeater) function
You can easily use the D-STAR repeaters with the DR
(D-STAR Repeater) function. With this function, you
can select the preprogrammed repeater or frequency
in “FROM” (the access repeater or simplex), and UR
call sign in “TO” (destination), as shown to the right.
Destination
(Repeater/Station)
Access repeater
or Simplex
In the DR screen
IMPORTANT!
Before starting D-STAR, the following steps are needed.
STEP 1 Entering your call sign (MY) into the transceiver.
STEP 2 Registering your call sign (MY) to a gateway repeater.
STEP 3 Entering your D-STAR equipment into your registration form.
You have completed the steps!!
See the Basic manual for details.
NOTE: If the repeater set in “FROM” (Access Re-
peater) has no Gateway call sign, you cannot make
a gateway call.

With the DR function, the transceiver has three ways to
communicate, as shown below.
Local area call : To call through your local area (ac-
cess) repeater.
Gateway call : To call through your local area (ac-
cess) repeater, repeater gateway and
the internet to your destination re-
peater or individual station’s last used
repeater, using call sign routing.
Simplex call : To call another station not using a re-
peater.
NOTE:
• Using the Repeater List is required to use the DR function. (pp. 9-24 to 9-34)
Before operating in the duplex mode, be sure to check whether the repeater is busy, or not. If the repeater is busy,
wait until it is clear, or ask for a “break” using a method acceptable to your local procedures.
The transceiver has a Time-Out Timer function for DV operation. The timer limits a continuous transmission. Warn-
ing beeps will sound approximately 30 seconds before time-out and then again immediately before time-out.

DWhat is the reflector?
A reflector is a special server connected to the internet
and running a version of Dplus software. If the Dplus
software is installed on your access repeater, it pro-
vides various functions including gateway and reflector
linking capabilities (It is known as the D-STAR reflector
system). The D-STAR reflector system enables a num-
ber of D-STAR repeaters around the world to link to a
reflector. This means that when you transmit through a
D-STAR repeater linked to a reflector, your voice can
be heard on other repeaters linked to the reflector, and
you can hear other stations that are connected to the
reflector when they transmit.

Data communication
Generally in the DV mode, communication signals have
separate audio and data frames. So in addition to digi-
tal voice communication, low-speed data communica-
tion can be made at the same time.
The DV Fast Data sends the DV data in the fast speed
(approximately 3.5 times faster than the normal opera-
tion). However, no audio can be sent.
Use the optional OPC-2218LU or OPC-2350LU with a
third-party serial data communication software.
NOTE:
Only ASCII code can be used for low-speed data
communication.
A message of up to 20 characters can be transmit-
ted with a DV voice signal.
Depending on the combination of your PC and your serial
data communication software, some data may be lost.
While receiving voice communication or low-speed
data communication through the internet, some
packets may be lost due to network error (poor data
throughput performance). In such a case, “L appears
on the LCD to show the Packet Loss has occurred.
While operating Dualwatch, and one band is scan-
ning, if you receive an image file or text data on the
other band, some of that data may be lost.
This does not indicate a transceiver malfunction.
q Set your own call sign, UR call sign and the repeater
call sign.
w Follow the instructions of the data communication
application software.
e When data is entered from a PC through the [DATA]
jack, the transceiver automatically transmits it.

GPS receiver’s position information can be received
in any mode. Also, a NMEA format compatible exter-
nal GPS receiver can be connected to the ID-51A/E
through the [DATA] port.
To receive signals from an external GPS source, connect
an external NMEA format compatible receiver to the ID-
51A/E according to the instructions, shown below. The
cable is not an Icom product and must be made sepa-
rately. Refer to the wiring diagram for pin connections.
• Position data can be transmitted in only the DV mode.
To prolong the battery life in the GPS mode
To prolong the battery life while operating in the GPS
mode, manually update your position with the re-
ceived GPS data.

The GPS icon blinks when searching for satellites.
The GPS icon stops blinking when the minimum number of
needed satellites are found.
It may take only a few seconds to calculate your posi-
tion. But depending on the environment, it may take a few
minutes. If you have difficulties receiving, we recommend
that you try a different location.
The icon does not appear when:
“GPS Select” item is set to “Manual.
(GPS > GPS Set > GPS Select)
“GPS Indicator” item is set to “OFF.
(GPS > GPS Set > GPS Indicator)
Set the “GPS Select” item to “External GPS” when an
external GPS receiver is connected.

NOTE: When using the GPS receiver
GPS signals cannot pass through metal objects. When using the ID-51A or ID-51E inside a vehicle, you may not
receive GPS signals. We recommend you use it near a window.
The Global Positioning System (GPS) is built and operated by the U.S. Department of Defense. The Department is
responsible for accuracy and maintenance of the system. Any changes by the Department may affect the accuracy
and function of the GPS system.
When the GPS receiver is activated, please do not cover the ID-51A or ID-51E with anything that will block the
satellite signals.
The GPS receiver may not work if used in the following locations:
1. Tunnels or high-rise buildings 2. Underground parking lots 3. Under a bridge or viaduct
4. In remote forested areas 5. Under bad weather conditions (rainy or cloudy day)
The GPS receiver may not work if the transceiver operates near the 440.205 MHz. This is due to signals made in
the internal circuit and does not indicate a transceiver malfunction.
NOTE: Continuous using the Internal GPS mode makes the
transceiver’s battery easier to be exhausted.
Longer battery time can be achieved by turning ON the
Power Save mode. See page 16-32 for details.

D-PRS (p. 10-24)
Position (Mobile)
D-PRS (DV-A): D-PRS is a function which simultane-
ously sends position data received
from the internal or an external GPS
receiver, using the slow speed data
packet space, along with voice.
• Mobile: A station operating while moving.
You can transmit direction and speed in-
formation.
NMEA (DV-G): A station transmitting position data
(NMEA0183) received from the inter-

When D-PRS is selected in the GPS TX mode, you can
transmit D-PRS data.
When operating in the D-PRS mode, the following
codes are transmitted to the PC.
D-PRS code is based on APRS® code.
(APRS®: Automatic Packet Reporting System).
DD-PRS
D-PRS is a function that simultaneously sends position
data received from the internal or an external GPS re-
ceiver, using the slow speed data packet space, along
with voice in the DV mode.
In an analog mode, you can transmit or receive only
voice or data at one time. However a D-PRS capable
transceiver can transmit or receive message data or
GPS position data at the same time voice is being
transmitted or received.
An I-GATE is required to send position data to the
APRS® server.
DOperating D-PRS (DV-A)
To transmit in D-PRS (DV-A), follow the steps below,
and for more details, see the pages listed along with
the steps.
1.

GPS Logger function
The GPS Logger function allows you to store the posi-
tions from a GPS receiver, into a microSD card, as your
route.
The GPS Logger stores Latitude, Longitude, Altitude,
Positioning state, Course, Speed and Date.
If you use this GPS Logger while driving, you can check
your driving course on a mapping software program.
DGPS Logger operating outline
To use GPS Logger function, perform following opera-
tions.
1. Insert a microSD card.
( microSD cards are not available from Icom. Pur-
chase a card to meet your needs.)
2. Confirm that the GPS receiver is receiving your
position and time. (p. 10-2)
3. Confirm that the GPS Logger function is ON.
The logger function starts.
NOTE:
The GPS logger function requires a microSD card.
Once the GPS logger function is turned ON, the
transceiver continuously stores the position data
from the GPS receiver, even if the transceiver is
rebooted. To cancel this function, turn the function
OFF.
While this function is ON, and when the transceiver is
turned OFF, the log file will be closed. Then the trans-
ceiver is turned ON and positioning data is received
by the GPS receiver, a new log file will be created.
When the microSD card is full, this function will auto-
matically be paused.
The transceiver has an exclusive GPS logger mode
where only the logger functions.
This mode is useful when you are traveling and don’t
want to use the transceiver for communication, but
you do want to use just a GPS logger.
See page 10-38 for details.
The GPS logger function stores your route as you
move.
When the GPS Logger function is set to ON, the trans-
ceiver stores the position data from GPS receiver onto
microSD card in a specified time interval.
You can select the RMC, GGA, VTG and GSA sentenc-
es for the GPS Logger function. (p. 10-35)
If you do not want to use this function, turn it OFF, as

General description
The Memory mode is very useful to quickly select of-
ten-used operating settings.
The transceiver has 500 regular memory channels,
50 scan edge channels (25 pairs) and 4 call channels.
Also, 26 memory banks, A to Z, can be used to store
groups of operating channels, and so on. Up to 100
channels can be assigned to a bank.
DMemory channel contents
The following information can be programmed into
memory channels:
• Operating frequency
• Operating mode
Duplex direction (DUP+/DUP–) with a frequency
offset
Subaudible tone encoder, tone squelch or DTCS
squelch ON/OFF
Subaudible tone frequency, tone squelch frequency
or DTCS code with polarity
• Scan skip setting
• Memory bank
• Memory name
• Tuning step
• UR Station call sign
• R1/R2 call sign
Digital Call sign squelch or Digital code squelch ON
or OFF
• Digital code
NOTE: Memory data can be erased by static electric-
ity, electric transients, and other causes. In addition,
they can be erased by a malfunction and during re-
pairs. Therefore, we recommend that memory data be
backed up or be saved to a microSD card or to a PC.
The microSD card is not available from Icom. Purchase a
microSD card to meet your needs.
The CS-51PLUS2 cloning software that is included on the
supplied CD can also be used to backup the memory data.
The optional OPC-2218LU or OPC-2350LU is required to
connect the transceiver and a PC.

FM Repeater operation
A repeater receives transmitted signals and retransmits
them on a different frequency. The transmit frequency
is shifted from the receive frequency by a preset fre-
quency offset.
In duplex operation, the transceiver’s frequency offset
is set to the same as that of the repeater. (p. 16-16)

GPS > GPS TX Mode > D-PRS (DV-A) > SSID
Select an SSID based on APRS® to add to your call sign, to show your op-
erating style to other stations.
The addition methods of the SSID may differ, depending on whether the call sign
includes a space or not.
• ---: The space in the call sign is converted to “-.
Text after the space will be used as the SSID.
But if no text is entered after the space, the space will be deleted,
and no SSID is added.
Example: “JA3YUA” “JA3YUA”
(no SSID is added)
“JA3YUA A “JA3YUA-A”
(“A” is changed to “-A”, and it is used as the SSID)
• (-0): No SSID is added.
If a call sign includes a space, any text or digit after the space will
be deleted.
Example: “JA3YUA” “JA3YUA”
(no SSID is added)
“JA3YUA A “JA3YUA”
(no SSID is added)
• -1 to -15: Adds an SSID of -1 to -15 to the call sign.
Even if a call sign includes a space and text, it will be automati-
cally changed to this set numeric ID.
Example(SSID [-9]):
“JA3YUA” “JA3YUA-9
(“-9” is added, and used as the SSID)
“JA3YUA A “JA3YUA-9”
(“A” is changed to “-9”, and it is used as the SSID)
• -A to -Z: Adds an SSID of -A to -Z to your call sign.
Even if a call sign includes a space and a text, it will be automati-
cally changed to this set letter ID.
Example(SSID [-Z]):
“JA3YUA” “JA3YUA-Z
(“-Z” is added, and used as the SSID)

About SSID
To assist in identifying a station’s type, designated call sign SSIDs are used
in D-PRS (APRS®), according to the common guideline.
The guideline may be changed when the infrastructure environment, such
as a product or network, is changed.
Please check the latest guideline in the web site related on the D-PRS or
