2  RF ENERGY EXPOSURE INFORMATION 
2.1  RF ENERGY EXPOSURE AWARENESS, 
CONTROL INFORMATION, AND OPERATION 
INSTRUCTIONS FOR FCC OCCUPATIONAL USE 
REQUIREMENTS 
BEFORE USING YOUR MOBILE TWO-WAY RADIO, READ THIS 
IMPORTANT RF ENERGY AWARENESS AND CONTROL 
INFORMATION AND OPERATIONAL INSTRUCTIONS TO ENSURE 
COMPLIANCE WITH THE FCC’S RF EXPOSURE GUIDELINES. 
NOTICE:  This radio is intended for use in occupational/controlled 
conditions, where users have full knowledge of their exposure and can 
exercise control over their exposure to meet FCC limits.  This radio 
device is NOT authorized for general population, consumer, or any other 
use. 
CAUTION
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by M/A-
COM, Inc. could void the user's authority to operate the 
equipment. 
This two-way radio uses electromagnetic energy in the radio frequency (RF) 
spectrum to provide communications between two or more users over a 
distance.  It uses RF energy or radio waves to send and receive calls.  RF 
energy is one form of electromagnetic energy.  Other forms include, but are 
not limited to, electric power, sunlight, and x-rays.  RF energy, however, 
should not be confused with these other forms of electromagnetic energy, 
which, when used improperly, can cause biological damage.  Very high levels 
of x-rays, for example, can damage tissues and genetic material. 

6 
Experts in science, engineering, medicine, health, and industry work with 
organizations to develop standards for exposure to RF energy.  These 
standards provide recommended levels of RF exposure for both workers and 
the general public.  These recommended RF exposure levels include 
substantial margins of protection.  All two-way radios marketed in North 
America are designed, manufactured, and tested to ensure they meet 
government established RF exposure levels.  In addition, manufacturers also 
recommend specific operating instructions to users of two-way radios.  These 
instructions are important because they inform users about RF energy 
exposure and provide simple procedures on how to control it.  Please refer to 
the following websites for more information on what RF energy exposure is 
and how to control your exposure to assure compliance with established RF 
exposure limits. 
http://www.fcc.gov/oet/rfsafety/rf-faqs.html 
http://www.osha.gov./SLTC/radiofrequencyradiation/index.html 
2.1.1  Federal Communications Commission 
Regulations 
Your M/A-COM, Inc. M7100IP mobile two-way radio is designed and tested 
to comply with the FCC RF energy exposure limits for mobile two-way radios 
before it can be marketed in the United States.  When two-way radios are used 
as a consequence of employment, the FCC requires users to be fully aware of 
and able to control their exposure to meet occupational requirements.  
Exposure awareness can be facilitated by the use of a label directing users to 
specific user awareness information.  Your M/A-COM, Inc. M7100IP two-way 
radio has an RF exposure product label.  Also, your M7100IP Installation and 
Operator’s Manuals include information and operating instructions required to 
control your RF exposure and to satisfy compliance requirements. 
2.2  COMPLIANCE WITH RF EXPOSURE 
STANDARDS 
Your M/A-COM, Inc. M7100IP mobile two-way radio is designed and tested 
to comply with a number of national and international standards and

3  OPERATION SAFETY RECOMMENDATIONS 
3.1 TRANSMITTER HAZARDS 
WARNING
The operator of any mobile radio should be aware of certain 
hazards common to the operation of vehicular radio 
transmitters.  A list of several possible hazards is given. 
• Explosive Atmospheres – Just as it is dangerous to fuel a vehicle with 
the motor running, similar hazards exist when operating a mobile radio.  
Be sure to turn the radio off while fueling a vehicle.  Do not carry 
containers of fuel in the trunk of a vehicle if the radio is mounted in the 
trunk. 
Areas with potentially explosive atmosphere are often, but not 
always, clearly marked.  Turn OFF your radio when in any area with 
a potentially explosive atmosphere.  It is rare, but not impossible that 
the radio or its accessories could generate sparks. 
• Interference to Vehicular Electronics Systems – Electronic fuel 
injection systems, electronic anti-skid braking systems, electronic cruise 
control systems, etc., are typical electronic systems that can malfunction 
due to the lack of protection from radio frequency energy present when 
transmitting.  If the vehicle contains such equipment, consult the dealer 
and enlist their aid in determining the expected performance of electronic 
circuits when the radio is transmitting. 
• Electric Blasting Caps –  To prevent accidental detonation of electric 
blasting caps, DO NOT use two-way radios within 1000 feet of blasting 
operations.  Always obey the “Turn Off Two-Way Radios” signs posted 
where electric blasting caps are being used. (OSHA Standard: 1926-900) 
• Liquefied Petroleum (LP) Gas Powered Vehicles – Mobile radio 
installations in vehicles powered by liquefied petroleum gas with the LP 
gas container in the trunk or other sealed-off space within the interior of 
the vehicle must conform to the National  Fire  Protection  Association 
standard NFPA 58 requiring: 
¾ The space containing the radio equipment shall be isolated by a seal 
from the space containing the LP gas container and its fittings. 
¾ Outside filling connections shall be used for the LP gas container. 
¾ The LP gas container shall be vented to the outside of the vehicle. 
10 
3.2  SAFE DRIVING RECOMMENDATIONS 
(Recommended by AAA) 
• Read the literature on the safe operation of the radio. 
• Keep both hands on the steering wheel and the microphone in its hanger 
whenever the vehicle is in motion. 
• Place calls only when the vehicle is stopped. 
• When talking from a moving vehicle is unavoidable, drive in the slower 
lane.  Keep conversations brief. 
• If a conversation requires taking notes or complex thought, stop the 
vehicle in a safe place and continue the call. 
• Whenever using a mobile radio, exercise caution. 

11 
4  OPERATING RULES AND REGULATIONS 
Two-way FM radio systems must be operated in accordance with the rules 
and regulations of the local, regional, or national government. 
In the United States, the M7100IP Series mobile radio must be operated in 
accordance with the rules and regulations of the Federal Communications 
Commission (FCC).  As an operator of two-way radio equipment, you must 
be thoroughly familiar with the rules that apply to your particular type of 
radio operation.  Following these rules helps eliminate confusion, assures the 
most efficient use of the existing radio channels, and results in a smoothly 
functioning radio network. 
When using your two-way radio, remember these rules: 
• It is a violation of FCC rules to interrupt any distress or emergency 
message.  As your radio operates in much the same way as a telephone 
“party line,” always listen to make sure that the channel is clear before 
transmitting.  Emergency calls have priority over all other messages.  If 
someone is sending an emergency message – such as reporting a fire or 
asking for help in an accident – KEEP OFF THE AIR! 
• The use of profane or obscene language is prohibited by Federal law. 
• It is against the law to send false call letters or false distress or emergency 
messages.  The FCC requires that you keep conversations brief and 
confine them to business.  To save time, use coded messages whenever 
possible. 
• Using your radio to send personal messages (except in an emergency) is a 
violation of FCC rules.  You may send only those messages that are 
essential for the operation of your business. 
• It is against Federal law to repeat or otherwise make known anything you 
overhear on your radio.  Conversations between others sharing your 
channel must be regarded as confidential. 
• The FCC requires that you identify yourself at certain specific times by 
means of your call letters.  Refer to the rules that apply to your particular 
type of operation for the proper procedure. 
• No changes or adjustments shall be made to the equipment except by an 
authorized or certified electronics technician. 
IMPORTANT! 
Under U.S. law, operation of an unlicensed radio 
transmitter within the 
j
urisdiction of the United 
States may be punishable by a fine of up to $10,000, 
imprisonment for up to two (2) years, or both. 
12 
4.1 OPERATING TIPS 
The following conditions tend to reduce the effective range of two-way radios 
and should be avoided whenever possible: 
• Operating the radio in areas of low terrain, or while under power lines or 
bridges 
• Obstructions such as mountains and buildings 
• In areas where transmission or reception is poor, some improvement can 
be obtained by moving a few yards in another direction or moving to a 
higher elevation.

CAUTION
Vehicular Electronics - Electronic fuel injection systems, 
electronic anti-skid braking systems, air bags, electronic 
cruise control systems, etc., are typical of the types of 
electronic devices which might be prone to malfunction 
due to the lack of protection from radio frequency energy 
present when a radio is transmitting. If the vehicle 
contains such equipment, consult the dealer to determine if 
such electronic equipment will perform normally when the 
radio is transmitting. 
WARNING
Air Bags – For driver and passenger safety, avoid 
mounting the radio above or near airbag deployment areas.  
Note that vehicles might contain front driver and 
passenger side airbags as well as side airbags.  For 
occupant safety, verify the location of all airbags before 
installing radio equipment. 
WARNING
For passenger safety, mount the radio securely so that the 
unit will not break loose in the event of a collision. This is 
especially important in station wagons, vans and similar 
type installations where a loose radio could be extremely 
dangerous to the vehicle occupants. 

21 
8 EQUIPMENT REQUIRED 
The equipment required for installing the M7100IP Series Mobile Radio is 
listed below: 
•  Crimping tool for fuse holder 
•  Electric drill for drilling mounting holes 
•  Drills and circle cutters, as follows: 
¾ No. 31 (1/8-inch) drill 
¾ No. 27 (9/64-inch) drill 
¾ 5/8-inch drill or circle cutter 
¾ 3/4-inch circle cutter, hole saw or socket punch 
•  Phillips and flat-blade screwdrivers 
• POZIDRIV® driver  
•  No. 20 TORX® driver 
CAUTION
Be careful to avoid damaging some vital part (fuel tank, 
transmission housing, etc.) of the vehicle when drilling 
mounting holes. Always check to see how far the 
mounting screws will extend below the mounting surface 
before installing. 
CAUTION
If pilot holes must be drilled, remove all metal shavings 
from drilling holes before installing screws. 

22 
9 INSTALLATION 
9.1 RUNNING CABLES 
To assure the feasibility of the planned cable routings, it is suggested that the 
cables be run before mounting the radio.  The M7100IP Series mobile radio 
may be installed as a Front Mount or a Remote Mount.  The type of mount, 
the application and the options to be installed should be considered when 
planning the cable runs.  Figure 9-1 and Figure 9-2 provide Interconnection 
Diagrams for typical installations and should be referenced throughout the 
installation. 
Be sure to leave some slack in each cable going to the radio so that the radio 
may be pulled out for servicing with the power applied and antenna attached.  
Coil any surplus cables and secure them out of the way.  Try to route the 
cables away from locations where they will be exposed to heat (exhaust pipes, 
mufflers, tailpipes, etc.), battery acid, sharp edges or mechanical damage or 
where they will be a nuisance or hazard to automobile mechanics, the driver 
or passengers. Keep wiring away from electronic computer modules, other 
electronic modules and ignition circuits to help prevent interference to these 
components and radio equipment. 
In addition, try to utilize existing holes in the firewall, trunk wall and the 
channels above or beneath doors.  Channels through door and window 
columns that are convenient for running cables may also be used, unless rigid 
or flexible conduit is to be installed for cable runs. 
Figure 9-1: Front Mount Extended Option Accessory Interconnections

Figure 9-2: Remote Mount Extended Option Accessory Interconnections 
9.1.1 Power Cable 
The power cable (19B802622P3 for radios 50W and below, 19B802622P1 for 
radios 60W and above) consists of a red lead A+ and a black lead A- 
connected to a molded 2-pin power connector and supplied with ring 
terminals (refer to Figure 9-3). To install the power cable: 
1.  Drill a 5/8-inch hole in the firewall for the cable run and insert the rubber 
grommet. Run the cable through this grommet to the battery location. 
Secure the cable at several locations within the engine compartment to 
prevent possible damage to cable. 
2.  Strip back the insulation approximately 3/8 of an inch from the end of the 
black lead. Slide one of the large heat shrink sleeves onto the wire and 
crimp a battery ring terminal onto this lead. Heat-shrink the sleeve over 
the crimp connection. Connect the black lead directly to the ground frame 
of the vehicle.  
3.  Cut off 12-18 inches from the red lead.  Strip back the insulation 
approximately 3/8 of an inch on each end of the wires.  Insert the wire 
ends into the small openings at the end of each fuse holder section and 
crimp a fuse connector to each wire.  Prepare the other end of the short 
wire in the same manner as in Step 2 of this procedure and connect to the 
positive (+) terminal of the battery. 
NOTE
Do not install the fuse until the installation is completed 
and all connections have been checked. 
NOTE
Power Cable 19B802622P3 is used only with radios with 
50 watts or less RF power output. 19B802622P1 is used 
for radios with 60 watts or more RF power output.

Figure 9-5: Remote Mount Extended Option Accessory Cable 
19B802554P7 

27 
9.1.3  Ignition Sense (All Applications) 
NOTE
The radio, as shipped from the factory, has the "ignition 
sense" feature disabled.  As such, the radio will be 
powered ON or OFF as determined by the front panel 
ON/OFF/VOLUME control only (assuming A+ and A- are 
connected).  If it is desired to enable the "ignition sense" 
feature, open the top cover of the radio and remove the 
shield from logic PWB.  Slide switch S951 from position 
3-2 to 1-2.  Replace shield and top cover.  Be sure to apply 
correct torque to screws holding top cover in place (refer 
to the appropriate Maintenance Manual). 
NOTE
The "Accessory" point should drop to ZERO volts when 
cranking the engine and return to +12 volts after the 
engine is started. If a point is chosen that drops to a 
voltage between zero and +12 volts, the radio might 
execute a power-up cycle several times during start up.  It 
is recommended that the terminal be measured with a 
voltmeter to be sure it shuts off (goes to zero volts) during 
the cranking of the engine. 
The fuse holder must be attached to the yellow sense lead along with the ring 
terminal as follows: 
1.  Cut the yellow sense lead approximately 6-12" from the end that will be 
connected to the ignition sense point. 
2.  Strip the insulation from each end of the short lead and from the end of 
the long lead at least 3/8". 
3.  Insert the stripped end of the long lead and one end of the short lead into 
the narrow end of each fuse holder half. 
4.  Crimp the leads in the fuse holder halves with a crimping tool. 
5.  Insert the 3-amp fuse into one end of the fuse holder and join the two fuse 
holder halves firmly together. 
6.  Attach the ring terminal to the end of the short lead and connect this lead 
to the ignition "ON" sense point [preferably an "Accessory" point (in the 
vehicle fuse panel) that is switched on when the vehicle ignition switch is 
in the ACCESSORY and RUN positions]. 

28 
CAUTION
Certain problems might be encountered when accessory 
equipment is connected to the ignition or accessory lines 
of the vehicle, where these lines can have large filter 
capacitors and a leakage path present.  If the radio does 
not turn off within a reasonable amount of time after the 
ignition is turned off, first try a different accessory or 
ignition sense pick-up point in the vehicle. Many vehicles 
have more than one circuit that is switched by the ignition 
switch, and one might be available that does not have 
large filter capacitors or a leakage path present. 
If a different pick-up point cannot be found, add a 470-
ohm, 1-watt resistor from the ignition sense pick-up point 
to ground. This will discharge the capacitor(s) or reduce 
the leakage voltage to a low value. Current drain through 
this resistor will be minimal (less than 0.03A) when the 
ignition is switched on. 
9.1.4  Control Cable (Remote Mount Only) 
The Control Cable is used to connect the Control Unit (through the RIA) to 
the Radio Transceiver in remote applications.  Plug P2, at one end, connects 
to the Remote Control Cable Connector (RCCC) mounted on the back of the 
RIA.  The Ignition Sense wire is also part of P2.  The connection, P5, is 
available for field programming, keyloading, or mobile data applications.  The 
other end of the Control Cable (P1) connects to the ORCC mounted on the 
back of the radio. See Figure 9-6.

pigtail.  Position the bracket, and insert the remaining M5 x 10mm hex 
head screw and lockwasher.  Tighten both of the hex head screws to 7 N-
m (61 in-lb) to maintain the desired Pigtail position.  See Figure 9-12. 
Figure 9-12: Pigtail Bracket Mounted on Radio 
9.4 SPEAKER 
The speaker kit includes the speaker, mounting bracket and connecting cable. 
Position the speaker toward the operator but follow the guidelines presented 
on pages 4 through 12 to assure it does not present a hazard in the event of an 
accident. The speaker may be mounted on the lower edge of the instrument 
panel, the firewall or above the windshield in some trucks.  

34 
1. Use the mounting bracket as a template for locating the mounting holes 
and mount the speaker as shown in Figure 9-13. 
2. Refer to the applicable installation procedures for connection of the 
speaker to the accessory cable. 
Figure 9-13: Speaker Mounting Bracket 
9.5  MICROPHONE HANGER AND/OR HOOKSWITCH 
MOUNTING 
The microphone hanger or hookswitch should be mounted in a location 
convenient to the operator where it will not interfere with the safe operation of 
the vehicle or be a hazard to the vehicle passengers. The hanger and 
hookswitch are designed to be mounted with the open end of the mounting 
button slot pointed upward. Use the hanger or hookswitch as a template to 
mark and drill the mounting holes.  Mount the hanger or hookswitch with the 
self-tapping screws provided.   
9.6  SIREN AND LIGHT 
For instructions about installing the Federal Signal Corporation Siren and 
Light Kit, refer to the Federal Signal Corporation Installation Instructions 
(Federal Systems part number 255287B, rev. B or higher). 
Program the radio to work with the Federal Systems Siren and Light Kit, 
using the instructions outlined in the ProGrammer On-Line Help. 
In a remote mount installation, three jumpers must be reconfigured in the 
remote control unit.  These jumpers are located on the Remote Interface 
Adapter (RIA), a PC board in the back half of the unit.  To access these 
jumpers, the RIA must be removed from the control unit as follows: 

35 
1. Disassemble the Control Unit using steps given in LBI-39175. 
2. Flex circuit PC2 does not need to be disengaged from J2, providing care 
is taken to avoid excessive bending. 
3. Reconfigure jumper A/B to center/B, jumper C/D to center/D, and jumper 
E/F to center/F. 
4. Carefully reassemble the RIA to front control panel, making sure that 
there is adequate alignment and lubricant for the black o-ring gasket at 
the mechanical interface between the RIA and the control panel.  This 
maintains the moisture seal of the control panel. 
NOTE:  The following issues have been reported on some M7100IP 
Siren/Light installations using the Federal Signal Corporation Siren and Light 
Kit: 
• Occasional false activation of siren and light functions when the ignition 
is turned to the “on” position and/or when the vehicle is started. 
• Occasional failure to enable siren or light functions via control head, 
which can be temporarily resolved by either power cycling the radio or 
turning the car ignition “off” and then “on” again. 
To resolve these issues above, modify the Federal Systems control cable as 
follows: 
1. Remove the outer shell from the DB25 side of the Federal Systems 
control cable. 
2. Add a jumper from pin 1 to pin 19. 
This modification to the SS2000 cable harness will disable the M7100IP’s 
capability to turn on and off the SS2000 from the front of the control head. 
The SS2000 will now be turned on and off strictly by its own ignition switch 
trigger line (red wire from 12 pin Molex® connector on SS2000 siren box). 
Follow the SS2000 Federal Signal Corporation installation instructions to 
attach the red ignition line correctly.

11  DUAL RADIO UNITS 
The Dual Radio feature can be configured for two remote mount radio units or 
for one front mount unit and one remote mount unit. In remote mount 
configurations the Control Unit is typically located in the vehicle cab, with the 
Radio Units located side-by-side in vehicle trunk. In front/remote mount 
configurations the front mount unit is located in the vehicle cab, with the 
remote mount unit located in a convenient location nearby.  The 
remote/remote mount configuration is the preferred installation, since a 
separate control unit is required to program the remote unit in a front/remote 
mount configuration. 
The following Dual Radio Unit configurations are not allowed: 
• Any configuration using a DIN cassette mount. 
• Any installation where Extended Options are required from both Radio 
Units.  Extended options are supported in one Radio Unit only. 
11.1 PRE-INSTALLATION PROGRAMMING 
PROCEDURE WITH PROGRAMMER – DUAL 
RADIO UNITS 
Both Radio Units in the Dual Radio configuration MUST BE 
PROGRAMMED prior to final installation.  It is recommended that the units 
be first programmed at an Authorized Service Center, and then transferred to 
the user's installation. 
These configurations provide for a Master Radio Unit and a Slave Radio Unit.  
In the remote/remote mount configuration, the Master Radio Unit is always 
the radio most directly connected to the Control Unit.  In the front/remote 
mount configuration, the Master Radio Unit is always the front mount radio.  
Extended Options are allowed only in the Master Radio Unit.  Programming 
each radio is straightforward, with one radio programmed as a Master radio 
and one as a Slave radio.  
1. Decide which Radio Unit will be the Master Unit.  Configure the radio for 
programming as shown in the applicable maintenance manual.

configuration). 
a. In the “Multi-Radio” field of ProGrammer, select “Master.” 
b. Select any M7100IP keypad programming options if the keypad is to be 
programmed.  The M7100IP keypad options can only be programmed 
with “multi-radio” set to “Master” in a dual radio personality. 
3. Program the unit normally.  Include Extended Option features, if purchased. 
57 
4. Program the Slave Unit (refer to the programming configuration that 
follows). 
a. Connect the Slave Radio Unit for programming.  Be sure to use the 
programming configuration for remote mount and supply the required 
control unit if for a front/remote mount dual radio configuration. 
b. In the “Multi-Radio” field of ProGrammer, select “Slave.”
