Description

 

Clear to See, Simple to Use, Dual‑band Mobile Transceiver that Expands Your Operating Possibilities with a Full Range of Advanced Features.


The ID-5200E is a new digital transceiver covering the VHF/UHF bands. It features a large touchscreen display and, combined with a waterfall display that shows band conditions at a glance, delivers outstanding visibility and intuitive operation.

The ID‑5200E offers a comprehensive set of D‑STAR features, including Terminal Mode, Access Point Mode, and DV repeater monitoring. A future firmware update will also add support for APRS. The ID‑5200E is additionally equipped with Wi‑Fi® and Bluetooth® connectivity. By connecting to the Internet via Wi‑Fi, Terminal Mode and Access Point Mode can be operated even more conveniently. It can also connect wirelessly to smartphones, allowing comfortable use of applications and more. In addition, it supports full dual-watch reception including DV/DV, enabling efficient operation.

 

A Large Touchscreen Color display with Excellent High Visibility

The ID-5200E features the same large 4.3-inch color display used in the IC-705 and IC-7300MK2. The touchscreen interface allows quick and intuitive access to settings such as frequency, mode, and other key functions. Furthermore, it is equipped with an automatic dimming function that adjusts the LCD backlight to the optimal brightness according to ambient light levels, as well as a key backlight that makes key operation easier at night or in dark environments. Visibility is greatly improved, allowing you to check a wide range of information more quickly.

*The in-vehicle installation example uses the Mount Base MBF-1 〈optional〉 and Controller Bracket MBA-20 〈optional〉

Waterfall Display for At-a-Glance Band Conditions

The ID-5200E is the first mobile transceiver to incorporate both a band scope and a waterfall display. The band scope provides detailed information on signal activity, band conditions, and available frequencies. The waterfall display further enhances visibility by allowing you to review received signal history over time and easily identify weak signals. Display modes include Center mode, FIX mode, and FIX Scroll mode, giving you flexible options to suit your operating style.

Center Mode

Displays received signals within a fixed range centered on the current receiving frequency.

FIX Mode

Displays received signals within a fixed range centered on the receiving frequency set in “FIX Mode Center Frequency.”

 

Scroll FIX Mode

Displays received signals within a fixed range centered on the receiving frequency set in “FIX Mode Center Frequency.
” If the reception marker moves beyond the display range, the view scrolls to follow it.

Enhanced D‑STAR Functionality, Including Terminal Mode and Access Point Mode

Terminal Mode and Access Point Mode

Even from locations where you cannot access a repeater, you can connect to the internet via Wi-Fi® to communicate over D-STAR. You can enjoy D-STAR without being affected by the availability or location of the nearest repeater. In addition, even in environments where a global IP address is not assigned, standby operation in Terminal Mode/Access Point Mode is possible*. These features enable easier and more flexible D-STAR operation.

*Reception of all calls is not guaranteed. In environments where a global IP address is assigned and port forwarding is available, please set UDP Hole Punch to OFF.

 

DV Repeater Monitor Function

The DV Repeater Monitor lets you check activity on the destination repeater during Area CQ via D-STAR. By accessing the repeater used to broadcast the area CQ via the Internet and actively monitoring the situation, you can determine when an ongoing communication has ended. Monitoring works with domestic and overseas repeaters, and reception from the nearest repeater always takes priority so you will never miss calls to your own station.

Image Transmission and Reception

The ID-5200E allows you to send, receive, and view stored images using only the main unit. Photos taken with a smartphone can be transferred to the ID-5200E via built-in Wi-Fi® or Bluetooth® connectivity.

Connectivity for Smartphone and PC with Wi-Fi®/Bluetooth®

The ID-5200E supports connectivity via Wi‑Fi® (compatible with 2.4GHz/5GHz bands) and Bluetooth® functions. Using the Wi‑Fi feature to access the Internet enables smoother operation in both Terminal Mode and Access Point Mode. It can also connect wirelessly to a smartphone, making it highly convenient when using control software, image‑trimming applications, and similar tools. Control software, image trimming utility software, and other applications can also be used by connecting to a smartphone via Wi-Fi® / Bluetooth® functions.

Supports APRS®* (Automatic Packet Reporting System)

The ID-5200E will support APRS®*, a communication protocol that utilizes packet radio to transmit and receive real-time information such as location data, messages, and weather reports. The built-in KISS mode TNC has been implemented since the first production run, enabling APRS operation from a PC.

*Planned for support in a future firmware update

Dualwatch including DV/DV

The receiver section features independent and identical receiving circuits for both MAIN and SUB. It supports full dualwatch including not only FM/FM and FM/DV, but also DV/DV. It is possible to operate with FM/DV (Terminal Mode) and listen to audio from 2 frequencies/modes simultaneously. This enables operations such as receiving from 2 D-STAR repeaters simultaneously, or monitoring another repeater while engaged while in communication.
