Handling Precautions

The MOTOTRBO Series Digital Portable radio meets

IP57 specifications, allowing the radio to withstand

adverse field conditions such as being submersed in

water.

• If the radio has been submersed in water, shake

the radio well to remove any water that may be

trapped inside the speaker grille and microphone

port. Trapped water could cause decreased audio

performance.

• If the radio’s battery contact area has been

exposed to water, clean and dry battery contacts

on both the radio and the battery before attaching

the battery to the radio. The residual water could

short-circuit the radio.

• If the radio has been submersed in a corrosive

substance (e.g. saltwater), rinse the radio and

battery in fresh water then dry the radio and

battery.

• To clean the exterior surfaces of the radio, use a

diluted solution of mild dishwashing detergent and

fresh water (i.e. one teaspoon of detergent to one

gallon of water).

• Never poke the vent (hole) located on the radio

chassis below the battery contact. This vent allows

for pressure equalization in the radio. Doing so

may create a leak path into the radio and the

radio’s submersibility may be lost.

• Never obstruct or cover the vent, even with a

label.

• Ensure that no oily substances come in contact

with the vent.

• The radio with antenna attached properly is

designed to be submersible to a maximum depth

of 1 meter (3.28 feet) and a maximum submersion

time of 30 minutes. Exceeding either maximum

limit or use without antenna may result in damage

to the radio.

• When cleaning the radio, do not use a high

pressure jet spray on the radio as this will exceed

the 1 meter depth pressure and may cause water

to leak into the radio.

Caution: Do not disassemble the radio. This

could damage radio seals and result in leak

paths into the radio. Radio maintenance

should only be done in service depot that is

equipped to test and replace the seal on the

radio.

Preparing Your Radio for Use

Charging the Battery

For best performance, your radio is powered by a

Motorola-approved Nickel Metal-Hydride (NiMH) or

Lithium-Ion (Li-lon) battery. To avoid damage and

comply with warranty terms, charge the battery using

a Motorola charger exactly as described in the

charger user guide. It is recommended your radio

remains powered off while charging.

Charge a new battery 14 to 16 hours before initial use

for best performance.

Attaching the Battery

1 Align the battery with the rails on the back of the

radio. Press the battery firmly, and slide upwards

until the latch snaps into place. Slide battery latch

into lock position.

2 To remove the battery, turn the radio off. Move the

battery latch ( ) into unlock position and hold, and

slide the battery down and off the rails.

Preparing Your Radio for Use

English

Attaching the Antenna

Caution: If antenna needs to be replaced,

ensure that only MOTOTRBO antennas are

used. Neglecting this will damage your radio.

See Antennas on page 266 for a list of

available antennas.

1 With the radio turned off, set the antenna in its

receptacle and turn clockwise.

2 To remove the antenna, turn the antenna

counterclockwise.

Attaching the Belt Clip

1 Align the grooves on the clip with those on the

battery and press downward until you hear a click.

2 To remove the clip, press the belt clip tab away

from the battery using a key. Then slide the clip

upward and away from the radio.

Preparing Your Radio for Use

Attaching the Universal Connector Cover

(Dust Cover)

The universal connector ( ) is located on the

antenna side of the radio. It is used to connect

MOTOTRBO accessories to the radio.

Insert the hooked end of the cover into the slots

above the universal connector. Press downward on

the cover to seat the lower tab properly into the RF

connector.

Turn the thumbscrew clockwise to secure the

connector cover to the radio.

To remove the universal connector cover, press down

on the cover and turn the thumbscrew

Preparing Your Radio for Use

English

Note: The Home screen does not light up during a

power up if the LED indicator is disabled (see Turning

the LED Indicator On or Off on page 142).

A brief tone sounds, indicating that the power up test

is successful.

Note: There is no power up tone if the radio tones/

alerts function is disabled (see Turning the Radio

Tones/Alerts On or Off on page 137).

If your radio does not power up, check your battery.

Make sure that it is charged and properly attached. If

your radio still does not power up, contact your

dealer.

To turn off the radio, rotate this knob

counterclockwise until you hear a click. You see a

brief Powering Down on the radio’s display.

Push-To-Talk (PTT) Button

The PTT button on the side of the radio ( ) serves

two basic purposes:

• While a call is in progress, the PTT button allows

the radio to transmit to other radios in the call.

Press and hold down PTT button to talk. Release

the PTT button to listen.

The microphone is activated when the PTT button

is pressed.

• While a call is not in progress, the PTT button is

used to make a new call (see Making a Radio Call

on page 48).

If the Talk Permit Tone (see Turning the Talk Permit

Tone On or Off on page 138) or the PTT Sidetone

is enabled, wait until the short alert tone ends before

talking.

During a call, if the Channel Free Indication feature

is enabled on your radio (programmed by your

dealer), you will hear a short alert tone the moment

the target radio (the radio that is receiving your call)

releases the PTT button, indicating the channel is

free for you to respond.

You will also hear a continuous talk prohibit tone, if

your call is interrupted, indicating that you should

release the PTT button, for example when the radio

receives an Emergency Call.

Programmable Buttons

Your dealer can program the programmable buttons

as shortcuts to radio functions depending on the

duration of a button press:

• Short press – Pressing and releasing rapidly.

Additional Radio Controls in Non-Connect Plus Mode

Additional Radio Controls in Non-Connect Plus Mode

English

IP Site Connect

This feature allows your radio to extend conventional

communication beyond the reach of a single site, by

connecting to different available sites which are

connected via an Internet Protocol (IP) network.

When the radio moves out of range from one site and

into the range of another, it connects to the new site's

repeater to send or receive calls/data transmissions.

Depending on your settings, this is done

automatically or manually.

If the radio is set to do this automatically, it scans

through all available sites when the signal from the

current site is weak or when the radio is unable to

detect any signal from the current site. It then locks

on to the repeater with the strongest Received Signal

Strength Indicator (RSSI) value.

In a manual site search, the radio searches for the

next site in the roam list that is currently in range (but

which may not have the strongest signal) and locks

on to it.

Note: Each channel can only have either Scan or

Roam enabled, not both at the same time.

Channels with this feature enabled can be added to a

particular roam list. The radio searches the channel(s)

in the roam list during the automatic roam operation

to locate the best site.

A roam list supports a maximum of 16 channels

(including the Selected Channel).

Note: You cannot manually add or delete an entry to

the roam list. Check with your dealer or system

administrator for more information.

Capacity Plus

Capacity Plus is a single-site trunking configuration of

the MOTOTRBO radio system, which uses a pool of

channels to support hundreds of users and up to 254

Groups. This feature allows your radio to efficiently

utilize the available number of programmed channels

while in Repeater Mode.

You hear a negative indicator tone if you try to access

a feature not applicable to Capacity Plus via a

programmable button press.

Your radio also has features that are available in

conventional digital mode, IP Site Connect, Capacity

Plus and Linked Capacity Plus. However, the minor

Additional Radio Controls in Non-Connect Plus Mode

English

differences in the way each feature works does NOT

affect the performance of your radio.

Check with your dealer or system administrator for

more information on this configuration.

Linked Capacity Plus

Linked Capacity Plus is a multi-site multi-channel

trunking configuration of the MOTOTRBO radio

system, combining the best of both Capacity Plus and

IP Site Connect configurations.

Linked Capacity Plus allows your radio to extend

trunking communication beyond the reach of a single

site, by connecting to different available sites which

are connected via an Internet Protocol (IP) network. It

also provides an increase in capacity by efficiently

utilizing the combined available number of

programmed channels supported by each of the

available sites.

When the radio moves out of range from one site and

into the range of another, it connects to the new site's

repeater to send or receive calls/data transmissions.

Depending on your settings, this is done

automatically or manually.

If the radio is set to do this automatically, it scans

through all available sites when the signal from the

current site is weak or when the radio is unable to

detect any signal from the current site. It then locks

on to the repeater with the strongest Received Signal

Strength Indicator (RSSI) value.

In a manual site search, the radio searches for the

next site in the roam list that is currently in range (but

which may not have the strongest signal) and locks

on to it.

Any channel with Linked Capacity Plus enabled can

be added to a particular roam list. The radio searches

these channels during the automatic roam operation

to locate the best site.

Note: You cannot manually add or delete an entry to

the roam list. Check with your dealer or system

administrator for more information.

Similar to Capacity Plus, icons of features not

applicable to Linked Capacity Plus are not available

in the menu. You hear a negative indicator tone if you

try to access a feature not applicable to Linked

Capacity Plus via a programmable button press.

Check with your dealer or system administrator for

more information on this configuration.

Scan

When you start a scan, your radio cycles through the

programmed scan list for the current channel looking

for voice activity.

The LED blinks yellow and the scan icon appears on

the status bar.

During a dual mode scan, if you are on a digital

channel, and your radio locks onto an analog

channel, it automatically switches from digital mode to

analog mode for the duration of the call. This is also

true for the reverse.

There are two ways of initiating scan:

• Main Channel Scan (Manual): Your radio scans

all the channels/groups in your scan list. On

entering scan, your radio may – depending on the

settings – automatically start on the last scanned

“active” channel/group or on the channel where

scan was initiated.

• Auto Scan (Automatic): Your radio automatically

starts scanning when you select a channel/group

that has Auto Scan enabled.

Note: This feature is not applicable in Capacity Plus

and Linked Capacity Plus.

Responding to a Transmission During a Scan

During scanning, your radio stops on a channel/group

where activity is detected. The radio stays on that

channel for a programmed time period known as

“hang time”.

1 Hold the radio vertically 1 to 2 inches (2.5 to 5.0

cm) from your mouth.

If the Channel Free Indication feature is

enabled, you hear a short alert tone the moment

the transmitting radio releases the PTT button,

indicating the channel is free for you to respond.

2 Press the PTT button during hang time.

The LED lights up solid green.

4 Release the PTT button to listen.

If you do not respond within the hang time, the

radio returns to scanning other channels/groups.

Deleting a Nuisance Channel

If a channel continually generates unwanted calls or

noise (termed a “nuisance” channel), you can

temporarily remove the unwanted channel from the

scan list.

This capability does not apply to the channel

designated as the Selected Channel.

Deleting a “nuisance” channel is only possible

through the programmed Nuisance Channel Delete

button. This feature is not accessible through the

menu.

1 When your radio “locks on to” an unwanted or

nuisance channel, press the programmed

Nuisance Channel Delete button until you hear a

tone.

The nuisance channel is deleted.

Restoring a Nuisance Channel

To restore the deleted nuisance channel, do one of

the following:

• Turn the radio off and then power it on again.

• Stop and restart a scan via the programmed Scan

button or menu.

• Change the channel via the Channel Selector

Knob.

Vote Scan

Vote Scan provides you with wide area coverage in

areas where there are multiple base stations

transmitting identical information on different analog

channels.

Your radio scans analog channels of multiple base

stations and performs a voting process to select the

strongest received signal. Once that is established,

your radio unmutes to transmissions from that base

station.

The LED blinks yellow and the vote scan icon

appears on the status bar.

To respond to a transmission during a Vote Scan,

follow the same procedures as Responding to a

Transmission During a Scan on page 73.

Contact Settings

Contacts provides “address-book” capabilities on your

radio. Each entry corresponds to an alias or ID that

you use to initiate a call.

Each entry, depending on context, associates with

one of five types of calls: Group Call, Private Call, All

Call, PC Call or Dispatch Call.

PC Call and Dispatch Call are data-related. They are

only available with the applications. Refer to the data

applications documentation for more information.

Note:

If the Privacy feature is enabled on a channel, you

can make privacy-enabled Group Call, Private Call,

and All Call on that channel. Only target radios with

the same Privacy Key OR the same Key Value and

Key ID as your radio will be able to unscramble the

transmission.

See Privacy on page 115 for more information.

Additionally, Contacts menu allows you to assign

each entry to a programmable number key or more

on a keypad. If an entry is assigned to a number key,

your radio can perform a quick dial on the entry.

Your radio supports two Contacts lists, one for Analog

contacts and one for Digital contacts, with a maximum

of 500 members for each Contacts list.

Each entry within Contacts displays the following

information:

• Call Type

• Call Alias

• Call ID

Note:

You can add or edit subscriber IDs for the Digital

Contacts list. Deleting subscriber IDs can only be

performed by your dealer.

For the Analog Contacts list, you can only view the

subscriber IDs, edit the subscriber IDs, and initiate a

Call Alert. Adding and deleting capabilities can only

be performed by your dealer.

to a group of radios. Your radio’s microphone is

automatically activated, allowing you to communicate

with the group of radios without pressing the PTT

button.

This activated microphone state is also known as “hot

mic”.

If your radio has Emergency Cycle Mode enabled,

repetitions of hot mic and receiving period are made

for a programmed duration.

Note: During Emergency Cycle Mode, received calls

sound through the radio’s speaker.

If you press the PTT button during the programmed

programmed receiving period, you will hear a prohibit

tone, indicating that you should release the PTT

button. The radio ignores the PTT press and remains

in Emergency mode.

Note: If you press the PTT button during hot mic, and

continue to press it after the hot mic duration expires,

the radio continues to transmit until you release the

PTT button.

Privacy

If enabled, this feature helps to prevent

eavesdropping by unauthorized users on a channel

by the use of a software-based scrambling solution.

The signaling and user identification portions of a

transmission are not scrambled.

Your radio must have privacy enabled on the channel

to send a privacy-enabled transmission, although this

is not a necessary requirement for receiving a

transmission. While on a privacy-enabled channel,

the radio is still able to receive clear (unscrambled)

transmissions.

Advanced Features in Non-Connect Plus Mode

115

English

Your radio supports two types of privacy:

• Basic Privacy

• Enhanced Privacy.

Only ONE of the privacy types above can be

assigned to the radio.

To unscramble a privacy-enabled call or data

transmission, your radio must be programmed to

have the same Privacy Key (for Basic Privacy), OR

the same Key Value and Key ID (for Enhanced

Privacy) as the transmitting radio.

If your radio receives a scrambled call that is of a

different Privacy Key, OR a different Key Value and

Key ID, you will either hear a garbled transmission

(Basic Privacy) or nothing at all (Enhanced Privacy).

The LED lights up solid green while the radio is

transmitting and blinks green rapidly when the radio is

receiving an ongoing privacy-enabled transmission.

You can access this feature by

All Call or Private Call, depending on how your radio

is programmed. If you change the Channel Selector

Knob to a different position (that has a call type

assigned to it), this causes the radio to re-register

with the Connect Plus site. The radio registers with

the Registration Group ID that has been programmed

for the newChannel Selector Knob position call type.

If you select a position that has no call type assigned

to it, your radio sounds a continuous tone and the

display shows Unprogrammed. Your radio does not

operate when selected to an unprogrammed channel,

use the Channel Selector Knob to select a

programmed channel instead.

Once the required zone is displayed (if you have

multiple zones in your radio), turn the programmed

Channel Selector Knob to select the call type.

Advanced Features in Connect Plus

Mode

Auto Fallback

Auto Fallback is a system feature that allows you to

continue to make and receive non-emergency calls

on the selected Group Contact in the event of certain

types of Connect Plus system failures.

If one of these failures occurs, your radio attempts to

roam to a different Connect Plus site. This search

process may result in your radio finding an operable

Connect Plus site, or it may result in your radio finding

a “Fallback Channel” (if your radio is enabled for Auto

Fallback). A Fallback Channel is a repeater that is

normally part of an operable Connect Plus site, but is

currently unable to communicate with either its site

controller or the Connect Plus network. In Fallback

mode, the repeater operates as a single digital

repeater. Auto Fallback Mode supports non-

emergency Group Calls only. No other call types are

supported in Fallback Mode.

Indications of Auto Fallback Mode

When your radio is using a Fallback channel, you

hear the intermittent “Fallback Tone” approximately

once every 15 seconds (except while transmitting).

The display periodically shows a brief message,

“Fallback Channel”. Your radio only permits PTT on

the selected Group Contact (Group Call, Multigroup

Call, or Site All Call). It does not allow you to make

other types of calls.

Making/Receiving Calls in Fallback Mode

Note: Calls are heard only by radios that are

monitoring the same Fallback channel and selected

to the same Group. Calls are not networked to other

sites or other repeaters.

Emergency voice calls or Emergency Alerts are not

available in Fallback mode. If you press the

emergency button in Fallback mode, the radio

provides an invalid key press tone. Display-equipped

radios also show the message, “Feature not

available”.

Private (radio to radio) calls are not available in

Fallback mode. If you attempt a call to a private

contact, you will receive a denial tone. At this point

Advanced Features in Connect Plus Mode

181

English

you should select a desired group contact. Other non-

supported calls include Remote Monitor, Call Alert,

Radio Check, Radio Enable, Radio Disable, Text

messaging, Location Updates, and packet data calls.

Enhanced Traffic Channel Access (ETCA) is not

supported in Auto Fallback mode. If two or more radio

users press PTT at the same time (or at almost the

same time), it is possible that both radios transmit

until PTT is released. In this event, it is possible that

none of the transmissions will be understood by

receiving radios.

Making calls in Fallback mode is similar to normal

functioning. Simply select the group contact you wish

to use (using the radio’s normal channel selection

method), and then press the PTT to start your call. It

is possible that the channel may be in use already by

another group. If the channel is in use, you receive a

busy tone and the display will say “Channel Busy”.

You may select Group, Multi-group or Site All Call

contacts using your radio’s normal channel selection

method. While the radio is operating on the Fallback

Channel, the Multigroup operates just like other

Groups. It is only heard by radios that are currently

selected to the same Multi-group.

Returning to Normal Operation

If the site returns to normal trunking operation while

you are in range of your Fallback repeater, your radio

automatically exits Auto Fallback mode. You hear a

registration “beep” when the radio successfully

registers. If you are in the range of an operable site

(that is not in Fallback mode), you may press the

Roam Request button (if programmed for your radio)

to force your radio to search for and register on an

available site. If no other site is available, your radio

returns to Auto Fallback mode after searching is

complete. If you drive out of coverage of your

Fallback repeater, your radio enters Search mode

(display indicates “Searching”).

Radio Check

If enabled, this feature allows you to determine if

another radio is active in a system without disturbing

the user of that radio. No audible or visual notification

is shown on the target radio.

User Configurable Scan

If the Edit List menu is enabled, a user is able to Add

and Remove the scan members from the Add

Member menu. A Scan List member must be a

regular Group Contact (i.e. not Multi-group or Site All

Call/Network Wide All Call) that is currently assigned

to a Channel Selector position in a Connect Plus

Zone with the same Network ID as the currently

selected Zone. The Talkgroup alias must not match

any Talkgroup that has been included in the current

Zone's Scan List.

Scan can be turned on or off from the menu or by

pressing a programmed Scan On/Off button.

This feature functions only when the radio is not

currently involved in a call. If you are presently

listening to a call, your radio cannot scan for other

group calls, and is therefore unaware they are in

progress. Once your call is finished, your radio

returns to the control channel time slot and is able to

scan for groups that are in the scan list.

Turning Scan On or Off

Note: This procedure turns the Scan feature On or

Off for all zones with the same Network ID as your

currently selected zone. It is important to note that

even when the Scan feature is turned on via this

procedure, scan may still be disabled for some (or all)

groups on your scan list. See the next section for

more information.

If Scan is turned on, the Scan icon appears on your

display. When Scan is on and you are not

participating in a call, the LED blinks green and

yellow.

The procedure for turning Scan on or off depends on

how your radio is programmed. If programmed with a

Editing the Scan List

Note: If the scan list entry happens to be the radio’s

currently selected group, the radio listens for activity

on this group regardless of whether the list entry

currently shows a check mark or not. Whenever a

radio is not in a call, the radio listens for activity on its

Selected Group, Multigroup, the Site All Call, and its

Default Emergency Revert Group (if configured for

one). This operation cannot be disabled. If Scan is

enabled the radio will also listen for activity on

enabled Zone Scan List members.

Your scan list determines which groups can be

scanned. The list is created when your radio is

programmed. If your radio has been programmed to

allow you to edit the scan list, you can,

• Enable/disable scan for individual groups on the

list.

• Add and Remove the scan members from the Add

Member menu. Refer to Add or Delete a Group via

the Add Members Menu on page 188.

Note: A Scan List member must be a regular Group

Contact (i.e. not Multigroup or Site All Call/Network

candidate”). Thus, the list of “scan candidates”

described in steps 6 on page 189 and 7 on page

When finished, press as many times as

necessary to return to the desired menu.

Understanding Scan Operation

Note: If the Radio joins a call for a Zone Scan List

member from a different Zone and Call Hang Timer

expires before you are able to respond, in order to

respond, you must navigate to the Zone and Channel

of the Scan List Member and start a new call.

There are some circumstances in which you can miss

calls for groups that are in your scan list. When you

miss a call for one of the following reasons, this does

not indicate a problem with your radio. This is a

normal scan operation for Connect Plus.

• Scan feature is not turned on (check for the scan

icon on the display).

• Scan list member has been disabled via the menu

(see Editing the Scan List on page 187).

• You are participating in a call already.

• No member of the scanned group is registered at

your site (Multisite systems only).

Emergency Operation

Note: If your radio is programmed for “Silent” or

“Silent with voice” emergency initiation, in most cases

it automatically exits silent operation after the

Emergency Call or Emergency Alert is finished. The

exception to this rule is when “Emergency Alert” is the

configured Emergency Mode and “Silent” is the

configured Emergency Type. If your radio is

programmed in this manner, the silent operation

continues until you cancel silent operation by

pressing PTT or the button configured for

“Emergency Off”.

Emergency voice calls and Emergency Alerts are not

supported when operating in Connect Plus Auto

Fallback mode. For more information see the Auto

Fallback on page 181.

An Emergency Alert is used to indicate a critical

situation. You can initiate an Emergency at any time

on any screen display, even when there is activity on

the current channel. Pressing the Emergency button

initiates the programmed Emergency mode. The

programmed Emergency mode may also be initiated

by triggering the optional Man Down feature. The

Emergency feature may be disabled in your radio.

Your dealer can set the duration of a button press for

the programmed Emergency button, except for long

press, which is similar with all other buttons:

• Short press – Between 0.05 seconds and 0.75

seconds.

• Long press – Between 1.00 second and 3.75

seconds.

The Emergency button is assigned with the

Emergency On/Off feature. Check with your dealer for

the assigned operation of the Emergency button.

• If the short press for the Emergency button is

assigned to turn on the Emergency mode, then the

long press for the Emergency button is assigned

to exit the Emergency mode.

• If the long press for the Emergency button is

assigned to turn on the Emergency mode, then the

short press for the Emergency button is assigned

to exit the Emergency mode.

Advanced Features in Connect Plus Mode

199

English

When your radio is selected to a Connect Plus zone,

it supports three Emergency modes:

• Emergency Call – You must press the PTT button

to talk on the assigned emergency time slot.

• Emergency Call with Voice to Follow – For the

first transmission on the assigned emergency time

slot, the microphone is automatically unmuted and

you may talk without pressing the PTT button. The

microphone stays “hot” in this fashion for a time

period programmed into the radio. For subsequent

transmissions in the same Emergency call, you

must press the PTT button.

• Emergency Alert – An Emergency Alert is not a

voice call. It is an emergency notification that is

sent to radios that are configured to receive these

alerts. The radio sends an emergency alert via the

control channel of the currently registered site.

The Emergency Alert is received by radios in the

Connect Plus network that are programmed to

receive them (no matter which network site they

are registered to).

Only ONE of the Emergency Modes can be assigned

to the Emergency button per zone. In addition, each

Emergency mode has the following types:

• Regular – Radio initiates an Emergency and

shows audio and/or visual indicators.

• Silent – Radio initiates an Emergency without any

audio or visual indicators. The radio will suppress

all audio or visual indications of the Emergency

until you press the PTT button to start a voice

transmission.

• Silent with Voice – The same as Silent operation,

except that the radio will also unmute for some

voice transmissions.

Receiving an Incoming Emergency

Your radio may be programmed to sound an alert

tone and also display information about the incoming

Emergency. If so programmed, upon receiving the

incoming Emergency, the display shows the

Emergency Details screen with the emergency icon,

the Alias or ID of the radio that requested the

Emergency, the Group Contact being used for the

Emergency, and one additional line of information.

The additional information is the name of the zone

that contains the Group Contact.

At the present time, the radio displays only the most

recently decoded Emergency. If a new Emergency is

received before the prior Emergency is cleared, the

Advanced Features in Connect Plus Mode

200

English

details for the new Emergency replace the details of

the previous Emergency.

Depending on how your radio has been programmed,

the Emergency Details screen (or Alarm List screen)

will stay on your radio’s display even after the

Emergency ends. You can save the emergency

details to the Alarm List, or you can delete the

emergency details as described in the following

sections.

Saving the Emergency Details to the Alarm List

Saving the emergency details to the Alarm List allows

you to view the details again at a later time by

1 When receiving an Emergency Call, press any

button to stop all Emergency Call received

indications.

2 Hold the radio vertically 1 to 2 inches (2.5 to 5.0

cm) from your mouth.

3 Press the PTT button to initiate a voice

transmission on the Emergency group.

All radios that are monitoring this group hear your

transmission.

4 Wait for the Talk Permit Tone to finish (if enabled)

and speak clearly into the microphone.

The LED lights up green.

5 Release the PTT button to listen.

When the emergency initiating radio responds, the

LED blinks green. You see the Group Call icon,

the group ID, and transmitting radio ID on your

display.

Responding to an Emergency Alert

Note: The Group contact used for the Emergency

Alert should not be used for voice communication.

This could prevent other radios from sending and

receiving Emergency Alerts on the same group.

An Emergency Alert from a radio indicates that the

user is in an urgent situation. You may respond to the

alert by initiating a private call to the radio who

declared the emergency, initiating a group call to a

designated talk group, sending the radio a Call Alert,

initiating a Remote Monitor of that radio, etc. The

proper response is determined by your organization

and the individual situation.

Initiating an Emergency Call

Note: If your radio is set to Silent, it does not display

any audio or visual indicators during Emergency

mode until you press the PTT button to initiate a voice

transmission.

If your radio is set to Silent with Voice, it does not

initially display any audio or visual indicators that the

radio is in Emergency mode. However, your radio un-

mutes for the transmissions of radios responding to

your emergency. The emergency indicators only

appear once you press the PTT button to initiate a

voice transmission from your radio.

For both “Silent” and “Silent with Voice” operation, the

radio automatically exits silent operation after the

Emergency Call is finished.

1 Press the programmed Emergency button.

2 Hold the radio vertically 1 to 2 inches (2.5 to 5.0

cm) from your mouth.

3 Press the PTT button to initiate a voice

transmission on the Emergency group.

When you release the PTT button, the Emergency

call continues for the time allotted for the

Emergency Call Hang Time.

If you press the PTT button during this time, the

Emergency call continues.

Initiating an Emergency Call with Voice to Follow

Your radio must be programmed for this type of

operation.

When enabled for this operation, when you press the

programmed Emergency button, and when your

radio receives the time slot assignment, the

microphone is automatically activated without

pressing the PTT button. This activated microphone

state is also known as “hot mic”. The “hot mic” applies

to the first voice transmission from your radio during

the Emergency call. For subsequent transmissions in

the same Emergency call, you must press the PTT

button.

1 Press the programmed Emergency button.

2 Hold the radio vertically 1 to 2 inches (2.5 to 5.0

cm) from your mouth.

3 The microphone remains active for the “hot mic”

time specified in your radio's codeplug

programming.

During this time, the LED lights up green.

4 Press and hold the PTT button to talk longer than

the programmed duration.

Initiating an Emergency Alert

Note: If your radio is programmed for “Silent” or

“Silent with Voice”, it will not provide any audio or

visual indications that it is sending an Emergency

Alert. If programmed for “Silent”, the silent operation

continues indefinitely until you press PTT or the

Advanced Features in Connect Plus Mode

203

English

button configured for “Emergency Off”. If programmed

for “Silent with Voice”, the radio automatically cancels

silent operation when the site controller broadcasts

the Emergency Alert.

Press the orange Emergency button.

Upon transmitting the Emergency Alert to the site

controller, the radio’s display shows the

Emergency icon, the Group contact used for the

Emergency Alert, and TX Alarm.

Once the Emergency Alert is successfully sent

and is being broadcast for other radios to hear, a

positive indicator tone sounds and the radio’s

display shows Alarm Sent. If the Emergency Alert

is unsuccessful, a negative indicator tone sounds

and the radio displays Alarm Failed.

Exiting Emergency Mode

Note: If the Emergency call ends due to the

expiration of the Emergency Hang Time, but the

emergency condition is not over, press the

Emergency button again to restart the process.

If you initiate an Emergency Alert by pressing the

programmed Emergency button, your radio

automatically exits Emergency mode after receiving a

response from the Connect Plus system.

If you initiate an Emergency call by pressing the

programmed Emergency button, your radio will be

assigned a channel automatically when one becomes

available. Once your radio has transmitted a

message indicating the emergency, you cannot

cancel your Emergency call. However, if you pressed

the button by accident or the emergency no longer

exists, you may wish to say this over the assigned

channel. When you release the PTT button, the

Emergency call is discontinued after the Emergency

Call Hang Time expires.

If your radio was configured for Emergency with Voice

to Follow, use the “hot mic” period to explain your

error, then press and release the PTT button to

discontinue the transmission. The Emergency call is

discontinued after the Emergency Call Hang Time

expires.

Man Down Alarms

Note: Man Down Alarms are not supported when

operating in Fallback mode. For more information see

the Auto Fallback on page 181.

Advanced Features in Connect Plus Mode

204

English

This section describes the Connect Plus Man Down

Feature. This is a purchasable feature that may or

may not apply to your radio.

Your Connect Plus portable radio can be enabled and

programmed for one or more of the Man Down

Alarms. Your dealer or radio system administrator can

tell you whether or not this applies to your radio and

which specific Man Down Alarms have been enabled

and programmed.

If your radio has been programmed for one or more of

the following Man Down Alarms, it is important for you

to understand how the Alarm works, what indication

(tones) your radio provides, and the action you should

take.

The purpose of the Man Down Alarms is to alert

others when you might be in danger. This is

accomplished by programming your radio to detect a

certain angle of tilt, lack of movement, or movement,

depending on which Man Down Alarm(s) is/are

enabled. If your radio detects a disallowed movement

type, and if the condition is not corrected in a certain

period of time, the radio starts to play an Alert Tone (if

so programmed). At this point you should immediately

take one or more of the corrective actions discussed

below, depending on which Man Down Alarm(s) has/

have been enabled for your radio. If you do not take

corrective action within a certain period of time, your

radio automatically starts an Emergency (either an

Emergency Call or Emergency Alert).

• Tilt Alarm – When your radio is tilted at or beyond

a specified angle for a period of time, it plays an

Alert Tone (if so programmed). To prevent the

radio from automatically starting an Emergency

Call or Emergency Alert, restore the radio to the

vertical position immediately.

• Anti-Movement Alarm – When your radio is

motionless for a period of time, it plays an Alert

Tone (if so programmed). To prevent the radio

from automatically starting an Emergency Call or

Emergency Alert, move the radio immediately.

• Movement Alarm – When your radio is in motion

for a period of time, it plays an Alert Tone (if so

programmed). To prevent the radio from

automatically starting an Emergency Call or

Emergency Alert, stop the radio’s motion

immediately.

Your dealer or radio system administrator can tell you

which of the above alarms (if any) has been enabled

through radio programming. It is possible to enable

both the Tilt and Anti- Movement Alarms. In that case,

Advanced Features in Connect Plus Mode

205

English

the Alert Tone plays when the radio detects the first

movement violation.

Instead of taking the corrective actions discussed

above, you can also prevent the radio from starting

the Emergency call or Emergency Alert by using a

programmable button, if your radio has been

configured in this manner. This is discussed in the

next two sections.

Turning Man Down Alarms On and Off

The procedure for turning the Man Down Alarms On

and Off depends on how your radio is programmed. If

programmed with a Man Down Alarms On/Off button,

use the button to toggle the Man Down Alarms On

and Off. This applies to all of the Man Down Alarms

enabled for your radio.

When using the programmable button to toggle the

Man Down Alarms On, your radio plays a tone that

rises in pitch and displays a brief confirmation

message.

When using the programmable button to toggle the

Man Down Alarms Off, your radio plays a tone that

falls in pitch and shows a brief confirmation message.

In order to hear the tones described above when

turning the Man Down Alarms On and Off, the

MOTOTRBO radio and Connect Plus Option Board

must both be enabled for keypad tones.

If your radio has been programmed so that Man

Down Alarms can be turned On and Off via the menu,

follow the procedure below.

Resetting the Man Down Alarms

If your radio has been programmed with either a Man

Down Alarms Reset button, or the Man Down Alarms

menu option, it is possible to reset the Man Down

Alarms without turning them On or Off. This stops any

Man Down Alert Tone that is currently playing, and it

also resets the Alarm timers. However, it is still

necessary to correct the movement violation by taking

the appropriate corrective action described in the Man

Down Alarms section. If the movement violation is not

corrected within a period of time, the Alert Tone starts

playing again.

The procedure for resetting the Man Down Alarms

depends on how your radio is programmed. If

programmed with a Man Down Alarms Reset button,

use the button to Reset the Man Down Alarms. This

applies to all of the Man Down Alarms enabled for

your radio.

When using the programmable button to reset the

Man Down Alarms, the radio shows a brief

confirmation message.

Beacon Feature

This section describes the Beacon feature. The

Beacon feature is part of Connect Plus Man Down, a

purchasable feature. Your dealer or Radio System

Advanced Features in Connect Plus Mode

207

English

Administrator can tell you if the Beacon feature

applies to your radio.

If your radio has been enabled and programmed for

one or more of the Man Down Alarms, it can also be

enabled for the Beacon feature.

If your radio automatically starts an Emergency Call

or Emergency Alert due to one of the Man Down

Alarms, and if your radio is also enabled for the

Beacon feature, the radio starts to periodically emit a

high pitched tone approximately once every ten

seconds. The interval can vary depending on whether

you are talking on your radio. The purpose of the

Beacon tone is to help searchers locate you. If your

radio has also been enabled for the “Visual Beacon”,

the radio’s backlight comes on for a few seconds

every time the Beacon tone plays.

You can stop your radio from playing the Beacon tone

by using a programmable button, if your radio has

been configured in this manner. This is discussed in

the next two sections. If your radio does not have the

programmable button or menu option, you can stop

the Beacon tone by turning the radio off and then on

again, or by changing to a different zone (if your radio

has been programmed for more than one zone).

Turning Beacon On and Off

The procedure for turning the Beacon On and Off

depends on how your radio is programmed. If

programmed with a Beacon On/Off button, use the

button to toggle the Beacon On and Off.

• When using the programmable button to toggle

the Beacon On, your radio plays a tone that rises

in pitch and shows a brief confirmation message.

• When using the programmable button to toggle

the Beacon Off, your radio plays a tone that falls in

pitch and shows a brief confirmation message.

In order to hear the tones described above when

turning the Beacon On and Off, the MOTOTRBO

radio and Connect Plus Option Board must both be

enabled for keypad tones. If your radio has been

Privacy

If enabled, this feature helps to prevent

eavesdropping by unauthorized users on a channel

by the use of a software-based scrambling solution.

The signaling and user identification portions of a

transmission are not scrambled.

Your radio must have privacy enabled on the current

channel selector position to send a privacy-enabled

transmission, although this is not a necessary

requirement for receiving a transmission. While on a

privacy-enabled channel selector position, the radio is

still able to receive clear (unscrambled)

transmissions.

Your radio supports Enhanced Privacy.

To unscramble a privacy-enabled call transmission,

your radio must be programmed to have the same

Key Value and Key ID (for Enhanced Privacy) as the

transmitting radio.

If your radio receives a scrambled call that is of a

different Key Value and Key ID, you hear nothing at

all (Enhanced Privacy).

The LED lights up solid green while the radio is

transmitting and blinks green rapidly when the radio is

receiving an ongoing privacy-enabled transmission.

You can access this feature by

secure or unsecure icon appears on the status

bar, except when the radio is sending or receiving

an Emergency Alert.

Making a Privacy-Enabled (Scrambled) Call

Toggle privacy on using the programmed privacy

button or by using the menu. Your radio must have

the Privacy feature enabled for the currently selected

channel position to send a privacy-enabled

transmission. When privacy is enabled for the

currently selected channel position, all voice

transmissions made by your radio will be scrambled.

This includes Group Call, Multigroup Call, talk-back

during scanned calls, Site All Call, Emergency Call,

and Private Call. Only receiving radios with the same

Key Value and Key ID as your radio will be able to

unscramble the transmission.

Checking for Updates

Connect Plus provides the ability to update certain

files (Option Board Codeplug, Network Frequency

File and Option Board Firmware File) over-the-air.

Note: Check with the dealer or network administrator

to determine whether this feature has been enabled

for your radio.

Any display Connect Plus radio has the ability to

show its current Option Board OTA Codeplug CRC,

Frequency File version or Option Board firmware file

version via a menu option. In addition, display radios

that have been enabled for over-the-air file transfer

can display the version of a "pending file". A "pending

file" is a Frequency File or Option Board firmware file

that the Connect Plus radio knows about via system

messaging, but the radio has not yet collected all of

the file’s packets. If a display Connect Plus radio has

a pending file, the menu provides options to:

• See the version number of the pending file

• See what percentage of packets has been

collected so far

• Request the Connect Plus radio to resume

collecting file packets

If the radio is enabled for Connect Plus over-the-air

file transfer, there may be times when the radio

automatically joins a file transfer without first notifying

the radio user. While the radio is collecting file

packets, the LED rapidly blinks red and the radio

displays the High Volume Data icon on the Home

Screen status bar.

Note: The Connect Plus radio cannot collect file

packets and receive calls at the same time. If you

wish to cancel the file transfer, press and release the

PTT button. This causes the radio to request a call on

the selected Contact Name, and it will also cancel the

file transfer for that radio until the process resumes at

a later time.

There are several things that can make the file

transfer process start again. The first example applies

to all over-the-air file types. The other examples apply

only to the Network Frequency File and Option Board

Firmware File:

• The radio system administrator re-initiates the

over-the-air file transfer.

Advanced Features in Connect Plus Mode

259

English

• The Option Board's pre-defined timer expires,

which causes the Option Board to automatically

resume the process of collecting packets.

• The timer has not yet expired, but the radio user

requests the file transfer to resume via the menu

option.

After the Connect Plus radio finishes downloading all

file packets, it must upgrade to the newly acquired

file. For the Network Frequency File, this is an

automatic process and does not require a radio reset.

For the Option Board Codeplug File, this is an

automatic process that will cause a brief interruption

to service as the Option Board loads the new

codeplug information and re-acquires a network site.

How quickly the radio upgrades to a new Option

Board firmware file depends on how the radio has

been configured by the dealer or system

administrator. The radio will either upgrade

immediately after collecting all file packets, or it will

wait until the next time that the user turns the radio

on.

Note: Check with your dealer or system administrator

to determine how your radio has been programmed.

The process of upgrading to a new Option Board

firmware file takes several seconds, and it requires

the Connect Plus Option Board to reset the radio.

Once the upgrade starts, the radio use will not be

able to make or receive calls until the process is

completed.

Firmware File

ARE LIMITED TO THE DURATION OF THIS

LIMITED WARRANTY. IN NO EVENT SHALL

MOTOROLA BE LIABLE FOR DAMAGES IN

procure for such purchaser the right to continue

using the Product or parts or to replace or modify

the same so that it becomes non-infringing or to

grant such purchaser a credit for the Product or

parts as depreciated and accept its return. The

depreciation will be an equal amount per year over

the lifetime of the Product or parts as established

by MOTOROLA.

MOTOROLA will have no liability with respect to any

claim of patent infringement which is based upon the

combination of the Product or parts furnished

hereunder with software, apparatus or devices not

furnished by MOTOROLA, nor will MOTOROLA have

any liability for the use of ancillary equipment or

software not furnished by MOTOROLA which is
