14221-1510-2000, Rev. C   8 1  SAFETY SYMBOL CONVENTIONS The following conventions are used in this manual to alert the user to general safety precautions that must be observed during all phases of operation, installation, service, and repair of this product. Failure to comply with these precautions or with specific warnings elsewhere violates safety standards of design, manufacture, and intended use of the product. Harris assumes no liability for the customer’s failure to comply with these standards. WARNING The WARNING symbol calls attention to a procedure, practice, or the like, which, if not correctly performed or adhered to, could result in personal injury. Do not proceed beyond a WARNING symbol until the conditions identified are fully understood or met.   CAUTION The CAUTION symbol calls attention to an operating procedure, practice, or the like, which, if not performed correctly or adhered to, could result in damage to the equipment or severely degrade equipment performance.   NOTE The  NOTE symbol calls attention to supplemental information, which may improve system performance or clarify a process or procedure. 2  RF ENERGY EXPOSURE INFORMATION 2.1  RF ENERGY EXPOSURE AWARENESS AND CONTROL INFORMATION FOR FCC OCCUPATIONAL USE REQUIREMENTS Before using the two-way mobile radio, review the following important RF energy awareness and control information and operational instructions. Comply with this information and instructions in order to ensure compliance with RF exposure guidelines.  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 remain below RF exposure limits. This radio is NOT authorized for general population, consumer, or any other use.   Changes or modifications not expressly approved by Harris 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. 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 WARNINGCAUTION
 14221-1510-2000, Rev. C 9 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. Refer to the following websites for more information on what RF energy exposure is and how to control 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 Before it was marketed in the United States, the XG-25M two-way mobile radio was tested to ensure compliance with FCC RF energy exposure limits for two-way mobile radios. 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. The radio has an RF exposure product label. Also,  the  Product Safety Manual and this  Operator’s Manual include information and  operating instructions required to control RF exposure and to satisfy compliance requirements. 2.2 COMPLIANCE WITH RF EXPOSURE STANDARDS The XG-25M two-way  mobile radio is designed and tested to comply with a number of national and international standards and guidelines regarding human exposure to RF electromagnetic energy. This radio complies with the IEEE and ICNIRP exposure limits for occupational/controlled RF exposure environment at duty-cycle times of up to 50% (50% transmit, 50% receive), and it is authorized by the FCC for occupational use. In terms of measuring RF energy for compliance with the FCC exposure guidelines, the radio’s antenna radiates measurable RF energy only while it is transmitting (talking), not when it is receiving (listening), or in a standby mode. The  XG-25M  two-way  mobile  radio complies with the following RF energy exposure standards and guidelines: • United States Federal Communications Commission (FCC), Code of Federal Regulations; 47 CFR § 2 sub-part J. • American National Standards Institute (ANSI)/Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE) C95.1-2005. • Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE) C95.1-2005. • IC  Standard RSS-102, Issue 2, 2005: Spectrum Management and Telecommunications Radio Standards Specification.  Radiofrequency Exposure Compliance of Radiocommunication Apparatus (All Frequency Bands).   Table  2-1  (for a VHF radio), Table  2-2  (for a UHF radio), and Table  2-3 (for a 700/800 MHz radio) list the recommended minimum safe lateral distances for a controlled environment and for unaware bystanders in an uncontrolled environment. Distances in these three (3) tables are relative to transmitting antennas (i.e., monopoles over a ground plane, or dipoles) at rated radio power for mobile radios installed in a vehicle. Transmit only when unaware bystanders are at least the uncontrolled recommended minimum safe lateral distance away from the transmitting antenna. Based on the highest radiated RF power and the highest antenna gain in antennas to be used with XG-25M, the distances listed in Table 2-1 (for the VHF radio), Table 2-2 (for UHF radio), and Table 2-3 (for the 700/800 MHz radio) are considered safe distances for controlled and uncontrolled environments with the XG-25M mobile radio transmitting at a maximum 50% duty cycle: CAUTION

Installation is limited to a metal-body motor vehicle or vehicles with appropriate ground planes. Use only approved/supplied antenna(s) or an approved replacement antenna. Unauthorized antennas, modifications, or attachments can cause the FCC RF exposure limits to be exceeded. 2.2.2 Approved Accessories The  radio has been tested and meets FCC RF guidelines when used with accessories supplied or designated for use with it. Use of other accessories may not ensure compliance with the FCC’s RF exposure guidelines, and may violate FCC regulations. For a list of approved accessories refer to the Installation Manual and/or the Harris Products and Services Catalog.   Always use Harris authorized accessories (antennas, speaker/mics, etc). Use of unauthorized accessories may cause the FCC Occupational/Controlled Exposure RF compliance requirements to be exceeded. 2.2.3 Contact Information For additional information on RF exposure and other information, contact Harris using one of the contact links listed in Section 16. WARNING
14221-1510-2000, Rev. C   16 3  OPERATION SAFETY RECOMMENDATIONS 3.1 OCCUPATIONAL SAFETY GUIDELINES AND SAFETY TRAINING INFORMATION To ensure bodily exposure to RF electromagnetic energy is within the FCC allowable limits for occupational use. Always adhere to the following basic guidelines: • The push-to-talk button should only be depressed when intending to send a voice message. • The radio should only be used for necessary work-related communications. • The radio should only be used by authorized and trained personnel. It should never be operated by children. • Do not attempt any unauthorized modification to the radio. Changes or modifications to the radio may cause harmful interference and/or cause it to exceed FCC RF exposure limits. Only qualified personnel should service the radio. • Always use only  authorized accessories (antennas, control heads, speakers/mics, etc.). Use of unauthorized accessories can cause the FCC RF exposure compliance requirements to be exceeded. The information listed above provides the user with information needed to make him or her aware of a RF exposure, and what to do to assure that this radio operates within the FCC exposure limits of this radio. 3.2 TRANSMITTER HAZARDS   The operator of any mobile radio should be aware of certain hazards common to the operation of vehicular radio transmissions. Possible hazards include but are not limited to: • Explosive Atmospheres — Just as it is dangerous to fuel a vehicle while its engine is running, be sure to turn the radio OFF while fueling the vehicle. If the radio is mounted in the trunk of the vehicle, DO NOT carry containers of fuel in the trunk. Areas with potentially explosive atmosphere are often, but not always, clearly marked. Turn the radio OFF 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 Electronic Systems — Electronic fuel injection systems, electronic anti-skid braking systems, electronic cruise control systems, etc., are typical of the types of electronic devices that can malfunction due to the lack of protection from radio frequency (RF) energy present when transmitting. If the vehicle contains such equipment, consult the dealer for the make of vehicle and enlist their  aid in determining if such electronic circuits perform normally 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 (305 meters) of blasting operations. Always obey the “Turn Off Two-Way Radios” (or equivalent) signs posted where electric blasting caps are being used. (OSHA Standard: 1926.900). • Radio Frequency Energy — To prevent burns or related physical injury from radio frequency energy, do not operate the transmitter when anyone outside of the vehicle is within the minimum safe distance from the antenna as specified in Table 2-1.  Refer to Section 2.1 for additional information. WARNING
 14221-1510-2000, Rev. C 17 • Vehicles Powered By Liquefied Petroleum (LP) Gas — Radio installation in vehicles powered by liquefied petroleum gas, where the LP gas container is located 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.  This requires:  The space containing the radio equipment must be isolated by a seal from the space containing the LP gas container and its fittings.  Outside filling connections must be used for the LP gas container.  The LP gas container space shall be vented to the outside of the vehicle. • Vehicles Equipped with Airbags — For driver and passenger safety, avoid mounting the radio’s control head (or any other component) above or near airbag deployment areas. In addition to driver-side and passenger-side front-impact airbags, some vehicles may also be equipped with side-impact airbags. For occupant safety, verify the location of all airbags within the vehicle before installing the radio equipment. 3.3 SAFE DRIVING RECOMMENDATIONS The American Automobile Association (AAA) advocates the following key safe driving recommenda-tions: • 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. 3.4 OPERATING RULES AND REGULATIONS Two-way radio systems must be operated in accordance with the rules and regulations of the local, regional, or national government. In the United States, the XG-25M  mobile radio must be operated in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). Operators of two-way radio equipment must be thoroughly familiar with the rules that apply to the 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 a two-way radio, remember these rules: • It is a violation of FCC rules to interrupt any distress or emergency message. The radio operates in much the same way as a telephone “party line.” Therefore, always listen to make sure 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, do not transmit unless assistance can be offered. • The use of profane or obscene language is prohibited by Federal law.
14221-1510-2000, Rev. C   18 • It is against the law to send false call letters or false distress or emergency messages. The FCC requires  keeping  conversations brief and confined  to business. Use coded messages whenever possible to save time. • Using the radio to send personal messages (except in an emergency) is a violation of FCC rules. Send only essential messages. • It is against Federal law to repeat or otherwise make known anything overheard  on  the  radio. Conversations between others sharing the channel must be regarded as confidential. • The FCC requires self-identification at certain specific times by means of call letters. Refer to the rules that apply to the 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.   Under U.S. law, operation of an unlicensed radio transmitter within the jurisdiction of the United States may be punishable by a fine of up to $10,000, imprisonment for up to two (2) years, or both. 3.5 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, communication improvement may sometimes be obtained by moving a few yards in another direction, or moving to a higher elevation. 3.6 RADIO FREQUENCY INTERFERENCE This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: 1. This device may not cause harmful interference; and, 2. This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation. CAUTIONNOTE

Se conformer à ces renseignements et instructions pour assurer la conformité aux directives d’exposition aux RF. MISE EN GARDE Cette radio est destinée à être utilisée dans des conditions professionnelles/ contrôlées, où les utilisateurs ont  une pleine connaissance de leur exposition et peuvent exercer un contrôle sur leur exposition pour rester sous les limites d’exposition aux RF. Cette radio N’est PAS autorisée pour la population générale, les consommateurs ou  toute autre utilisation.  AVERTISSEMENT Des changements ou modifications non expressément approuvés par Harris pourraient annuler le droit d’utilisation de l’équipement pour l’utilisateur. Cette radio bidirectionnelle utilise une énergie électromagnétique dans le spectre des radiofréquences (RF) pour permettre une communication à distance entre deux utilisateurs ou plus. Elle utilise l’énergie
14221-1510-2000, Rev. C   20 des RF ou les ondes radio pour envoyer et recevoir des appels. L’énergie des RF est une forme d’énergie électromagnétique. D’autres formes comprennent, entre autres, l’énergie électrique, la lumière du soleil et les rayons X. Toutefois, l’énergie des RF ne doit pas être confondue avec ces autres formes d’énergie électromagnétique qui, lorsque mal utilisées, peuvent causer des dommages biologiques. Par exemple, des niveaux très élevés de rayons X peuvent endommager les tissus et le matériel génétique. Des experts en science, en ingénierie, en médecine, en santé et de l’industrie travaillent avec des organismes pour établir des normes pour l’exposition à l’énergie des RF. Ces normes procurent des niveaux recommandés d’exposition aux RF autant aux travailleurs qu’au grand public. Ces niveaux d’exposition aux RF recommandés comprennent d’importantes marges de protection. Toutes les radios bidirectionnelles commercialisées en Amérique du Nord sont conçues, fabriquées et testées pour s’assurer qu’elles satisfont les niveaux d’exposition aux RF établis par le gouvernement. Les fabricants recommandent également des consignes d’utilisation particulières aux utilisateurs de radios bidirectionnelles. Ces instructions sont importantes, car elles informent les utilisateurs sur l’exposition à l’énergie des RF et donnent des procédures simples sur la manière de contrôler cette exposition. Consultez les sites Web suivants (en anglais) pour de plus amples renseignements sur ce qu’est l’exposition à l’énergie des RF et comment contrôler l’exposition pour assurer la conformité aux limites d’exposition établies : http://www.fcc.gov/oet/rfsafety/rf-faqs.html http://www.osha.gov./SLTC/radiofrequencyradiation/index.html 5.1.1 Règlements de la Federal Communications Commission (« Commission fédérale des communications » aux États-Unis) Avant d’être mise sur le marché aux États-Unis, la radio mobile bidirectionnelle XG-25M a été testée pour s’assurer de sa conformité aux limites d’exposition à l’énergie des RF de la FCC pour les radios mobiles bidirectionnelles. Lorsque les radios bidirectionnelles sont utilisées à la suite d’une embauche, la FCC demande aux utilisateurs de bien connaître et de pouvoir contrôler leur exposition pour satisfaire les exigences professionnelles. La sensibilisation à l’exposition peut être facilitée par l’utilisation d’une étiquette qui dirige les utilisateurs vers des renseignements particuliers sur la sensibilisation de l’utilisateur. La radio possède une étiquette de produit sur l’exposition aux RF. De plus, le Manuel sur la sécurité du produit et le présent Manuel de l’opérateur comprennent des renseignements et les consignes d’utilisation nécessaires pour contrôler l’exposition aux RF et pour satisfaire les exigences de conformité. 5.2 CONFORMITÉ AUX NORMES D’EXPOSITION AUX RF La radio mobile bidirectionnelle XG-25M est conçue et testée pour être conforme à un certain nombre de normes et directives nationales et internationales quant à l’exposition humaine à l’énergie électromagnétique des RF. Cette radio est conforme aux limites d’exposition de l’IEEE et de la Commission internationale de protection contre les rayonnements non ionisants pour un environnement professionnel/contrôlé d’exposition aux RF à des périodes de cycle de service allant jusqu’à 50 % (50 % de transmission, 50 % de réception) et elle est autorisée par la FCC pour une utilisation professionnelle. Sur le plan de la mesure de l’énergie des RF pour la conformité aux directives d’exposition de la FCC, l’antenne de la radio irradie une énergie des RF mesurable seulement lorsqu’elle transmet (parler), et non lorsqu’elle reçoit (écouter) ou en mode d’attente. La radio mobile bidirectionnelle XG-25M est conforme aux normes et directives d’exposition à l’énergie des RF suivantes : • Federal Communications Commission (FCC) américaine, le Code of Federal Regulations; 47 CFR § 2 sous-partie J. • American National Standards Institute (ANSI)/Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE) C95.1-2005.

AVERTISSEMENT Tableau 5-1, Tableau 5-2 et Tableau 5-3 indiquent les distances latérales sécuritaires minimales recommandées pour un environnement contrôlé et pour les spectateurs ignorants dans un environnement non contrôlé, d’antennes de transmission (c.-à-d., des monopôles sur un plan de sol, ou des dipôles) à une puissance de radio évaluée pour les radios mobiles installées dans un véhicule. Ils ne transmettent que lorsque les spectateurs ignorants sont au moins à la distance latérale sécuritaire minimale recommandée non contrôlée de l’antenne de transmission. Basées sur la puissance des RF irradiées la plus élevée et le gain d’antenne le plus élevé dans les antennes à utiliser avec le XG-25M, les distances indiquées dans les Tableau 5-1 (pour la radio à 136 à 174 MHz), Tableau  5-2  (pour la radio à 378 à  470 MHz) et Tableau  5-3  (pour la radio à 700/800 MHz) sont considérées comme des distances sécuritaires pour des environnements contrôlés et non contrôlés avec la radio mobile XG-25M qui transmet à un cycle de service maximal de 50 % : Tableau 5-1 : Distance latérale sécuritaire minimale recommandée d’une antenne de transmission branchée sur une radio mobile XG-25M de 136 à 174 MHz NUMÉRO DE PIÈCE DE L’ÉLÉMENT DE L’ANTENNE DESCRIPTION DE L’ANTENNE DISTANCE MINIMALE RECOMMANDÉE DE L’ANTENNE DE TRANSMISSION POUR LE CORPS HUMAIN ENVIRONNEMENT CONTRÔLÉ ENVIRONNEMENT NON CONTRÔLÉ AN-225002-001 136 à 174 MHz, gain de 0 dBd 63 cm (24,8 po) 140 cm (55,1 po) AN-225006-001 132 à 960 MHz, gain de 0 dBd AN-225002-003 136 à 174 MHz, gain de 3 dBd 89 cm (35,0 po) 198 cm (78,0 po) AN-225002-004 136 à 174 MHz, gain de 2,4 dBd 83 cm (32,7 po) 185 cm (72,8 po)

 14221-1510-2000, Rev. C 35 7  INTRODUCTION This manual contains operating  information for the XG-25M mobile radio and related accessories. In addition, product safety-related information for the radio equipment is included. 7.1 GENERAL DESCRIPTION The XG-25M mobile radio is a high-performance digital mobile radio. It can operate in Project 25 (P25) trunked, P25 conventional, EDACS® trunked, ProVoice™ trunked, and analog conventional modes. The radio’s control head features a large text and graphics-based liquid-crystal display (LCD), and front panel controls for user control of the radio. Controls and indicators are described in the section that begins on page 37 of this manual. Operations common to all modes of operation are described in the section that begins on page 40.  Operating information  for the P25,  EDACS  and  ProVoice  trunked operating modes  begins  on page 51.    P25 conventional mode operating information  begins  on page 70.  Analog conventional mode operating information begins on page 78. The radio is designed to operate in a mobile environment, typically within a motor vehicle. It must be connected to an external transmit/receive antenna such as one mounted to the vehicle’s rooftop or trunk lid. The radio provides half-duplex voice and data communications. Voice communications are accomplished via a “push-to-talk” (PTT) type microphone and an external speaker connected to the radio’s control head.       Figure 7-1:  XG-25M Mobile Radio (Front View)  The XG-25M mobile radio may be equipped with an optional built-in Global Positioning System (GPS) tracking receiver.  The GPS antenna can be integrated into the mobile transmit/receive antenna (i.e., a “combination” antenna). Alternately, the GPS antenna can be located/mounted completely separate from the mobile transmit/receive antenna.  The  radio  exceeds  many  tough environmental specifications included within military standard MIL-STD-810G, the radio industry standard TIA/EIA-603, and the radio standard established by the U.S. Forest Service. The radio supports the P25  Common Air Interface (P25 CAI) standard. P25 radio systems utilize Improved Multi-Band Excitation (IMBE) speech and data compression technology, developed by Digital Voice Systems, Inc.

 14221-1510-2000, Rev. C 37 8  CONTROLS AND INDICATORS This section describes the controls and indicators located on the XG-25M radio’s front panel. 8.1  POWER ON/OFF/VOLUME CONTROL The radio’s Power On/Off/Volume control is located on the top-left corner of its front panel. See Figure 7-1 on page 35.  To turn on the radio, rotate this control clockwise out of the detent position. To turn the radio off, rotate this control fully counter-clockwise until it returns to the detent position, as sensed by a click of the control. See Section 9.1 for additional information. 8.2  SYSTEM/GROUP/CHANNEL CONTROL The radio’s System/Group/Channel control is located just to the right of the display, as viewing the front panel. See Figure 7-1 on page 35.  With default radio programming, rotating this control selects groups or channels. It selects groups if the currently selected radio system is a P25 trunked radio system. It selects channels if the currently selected radio system is a conventional system (P25 conventional or analog conventional). For a P25 conventional radio system, the radio can be programmed to display either the channel name or the respective group name. The radio may be programmed so this control selects radio systems instead of groups/channels. In this case, the + (plus) and – (minus) buttons are normally programmed to select groups/channels. 8.3 BUTTONS Ten buttons are located on the front panel of the radio. Button functions are summarized in Table 8-1. Table 8-1:  Button Functions BUTTON FUNCTION MENU Primary Function:  Accesses the menu. This is a list of addition features that are not available directly from the keypad. Secondary Function:  Activates a selected function within the menu, similar to an “Enter” key. + and –  Primary Function: Scrolls through available radio systems, groups, or channels, depending on radio  programming. Selects radio systems with default programming. Secondary Function: Changes the selection to another function a menu list. CLEAR When the menu function is active, press this button to cancel the menu operation, remove all displays associated with the menu, and return to the previous display. When operating in conventional mode, press this button briefly to disable radio receiver squelch, so activity on the selected channel can be monitored. When pressed and held for approximately three (3) seconds, this button toggles conventional channel decoding (Channel Guard, Digital Channel Guard, T99) on and off, if programmed for the selected channel. OPTION Activates  a  programmable option per  radio programming. For example, high or  low radio transmitter power. SCAN Toggles scan operation on and off. A, B and C The A, B and C preset buttons are programmed for one of many available functions. In this case, the function is activated by pressing the respective preset button.  Home/Emergency button. If programmed as a home button, when pressed, the radio will immediately transition to a programmed home radio system and group/channel. If programmed as an emergency button, hold it depressed for a short time to initiate and transmit an emergency call request. The exact depression time is programmable. See Sections 10.5 (P25 trunked) and/or 12.9 (analog conventional) for additional information.

 14221-1510-2000, Rev. C 39 Table 8-2:  Status Icons ICON NAME STATUS/MEANING  Bluetooth® When this icon is on, the radio is paired with/connected to a Bluetooth wireless device, such as a speaker/microphone accessory. Off means the radio’s Bluetooth function is off, therefore no devices can pair it. This icon blinks when the radio’s Bluetooth function is on but no Bluetooth wireless  device  is currently paired/connected with the radio, and the radio is searching for a device to pair with.  Scan Icon When on with animated rotation, scan mode is enabled. The radio is scanning groups on the list, including the Priority 1 and Priority 2 groups. When on steady without animated rotation, scan is temporarily disabled because the radio is receiving a call on a scanned group. When off (i.e., icon not appearing in the display), scan is disabled. The radio is not scanning. Information about scanning P25  trunked groups is included in Section 10.7 on page 60. Information about scanning analog conventional channels is included in Section 12.5 on page 81.  Scan Icon The selected group/channel is on the scan list as a non-priority group/channel. The group/channel will be scanned when the radio is scanning.  Scan Priority 2 Icon The selected group/channel is on the scan list as the Priority 2 group/channel. When the radio is scanning, it will be scanned with second-highest priority.  Scan Priority 1 Icon The selected group/channel is on the scan list as the Priority 1 group/channel. When the radio is scanning, it will be scanned with highest priority.  Special Call Icon This icon appears when the radio is in special call mode.

14221-1510-2000, Rev. C   40 9  COMMON OPERATIONS 9.1 TURNING THE RADIO ON AND OFF AND ADJUSTING VOLUME To turn on the radio, rotate its Power On/Off/Volume control clockwise out of the detent position. Some radio installations may be wired so an external switch such as the vehicle’s ignition key must also be placed in a run or on position before the radio will turn on. When the radio is on, indications appear in the display, such as the selected group/channel and status icons. The radio may be programmed to power-up on the previously selected radio system and group/channel (that was selected at the last power down), or to a pre-programmed radio system and group/channel. It may also be programmed to sound an audible tone (“beep”) at turn on. Rotate this control clockwise to increase the volume of receive audio and rotate it counter-clockwise to decrease the volume. Volume adjustment can be made at anytime during radio operation, as needed. To turn the radio off, rotate this control fully counter-clockwise until it clicks. The radio turns completely off within a few seconds of this action. 9.2 CONNECTING A STANDARD MICROPHONE (“MIC”) As shown in Figure 7-1, the microphone connector is located near a bottom corner of the radio’s front panel. Connect a standard hand-held type microphone to this connector by positioning the small notch of the mic’s plug in a straight-up (i.e., in the 12-oclock position) at the mic connector, and then gently push the plug into the connector. Finally, latch the plug to the connector by rotating the plug’s locking ring in a clockwise direction. 9.3 CONNECTING A BLUETOOTH WIRELESS SPEAKER/MICROPHONE The radio can be programmed so a Bluetooth® wireless speaker/microphone or another similar type Blue-tooth wireless audio device can be used with it. If the radio is programmed as such, use the following procedures as necessary: 9.3.1 Pairing/Connecting a Bluetooth Wireless Device with the Radio 1. Turn on the Bluetooth  wireless  device (e.g., wireless  speaker/mic)  and place it in pairing mode. Consult the device’s operator manual as necessary. Some devices may refer to this mode as “discovery mode.” Some Bluetooth devices will time-out of their pairing mode after a preset time, so be familiar with the device’s audible and/or visual pairing mode indications, and re-enter pairing mode if this occurs before the radio can be paired with/connected to it. 2. Press the radio’s MENU button to activate the menu function. 3. Press the radio’s + or – buttons until BLUTOOTH (for Bluetooth) is selected with the > symbol, and then press MENU to enter this function. ADD DEVICE appears.   If BLUTOOTH does not appear on the current menu, the radio is not programmed for Bluetooth wireless operations in the current menu/mode (i.e., trunked or conventional). Therefore, wireless Bluetooth connections are not possible. 4. With ADD DEVICE displayed, press MENU again. The radio then displays SEARCHING as it begins searching for nearby Bluetooth devices that it can pair/connect with. During the search, the current number of the found Bluetooth devices is displayed and the   (Bluetooth) icon blinks in the display.  NOTE
 14221-1510-2000, Rev. C 41  The   (Bluetooth) icon blinks in the display when the radio’s Bluetooth function is on but the radio is not paired with a Bluetooth wireless device. 5. Wait for the search to complete. When done, the radio displays SELECT and the name of the first pairable device which it located during search. 6. Press the + or – buttons until the name of the desired wireless Bluetooth device for connection to appears, and then press MENU again to pair/connect to it.  PAIR WITH displays, and after several seconds, the pairing completes. This is indicated when radio displays PAIRING COMPLETE and the  (Bluetooth) icon stops blinking and remains on. Also note the device’s audible and/or visual indication  per  the successful pairing/connection, such as a blue light and/or several high-pitched beeps. If the name of the desired Bluetooth wireless device was not listed, first verify the device is still in pairing mode (aka., discovery mode), then use the SEARCH AGAIN function, or repeat this procedure from step 1. If the selected Bluetooth wireless device cannot be successfully paired, PAIRING FAILED displays, followed by ADD DEVICE.  In this case, the device has most likely either exited its pairing mode (aka.,  discovery mode)  since the radio’s search feature found it or it has been turned off (either manually or automatically). Correct as necessary and then use the ADD DEVICE function to perform another search. 9.3.2 Basic Bluetooth Wireless Device Operations After successful pairing/connection, radio receive audio and alert tones are routed to the speaker/-earpiece of the Bluetooth wireless device instead of to the radio’s (internal/external) speaker, and the radio’s previously active (internal/external) speaker remains muted. Volume control adjustments for the wireless device are made at the device, not at the radio’s control head.   The  PTT switch of the standard/wired microphone connected to the control head remains active when a Bluetooth device is actively paired with the radio. The radio can be keyed from this PTT switch;  however, transmit audio will be sourced from the microphone of the Bluetooth wireless device. After being paired with a Bluetooth wireless device, if the radio or the device is powered off and then back on, pairing will be automatically re-established a short time after power-up. This assumes the device is within wireless range of the radio. Refer to the Bluetooth wireless device’s operator manual for additional information about using it with the radio. 9.3.3 Deleting/Disconnecting a Bluetooth Wireless Device To disconnect a currently connected Bluetooth wireless device, or to prevent the previously-connected device from re-connecting to the radio, follow this procedure. In the latter case, the device does not need to be actively paired/connected with the radio before beginning this procedure: 1. Press the radio’s MENU button to activate the menu function. 2. Press the radio’s + or  – buttons until BLUTOOTH is selected with the > symbol, and then press MENU to enter this function. ADD DEVICE appears. 3.

These alert tones can be enabled or disabled via radio programming. Table 10-2:  Alert Tones during Trunked Operations NAME TONE DESCRIPTION Call Originate 1 short mid-pitched tone Sounds after keying the radio (Push-To-Talk button is pressed). Indicates the radio has been assigned a working channel. Autokey 1 mid-pitched tone After being placed in a queue or releasing the PTT button prior to a working channel assignment, the site calls the radio when a channel becomes available.  At this point, the radio automatically keys the transmitter (autokey) for a short period to hold the channel.  The radio sounds a mid-pitched tone when it is clear to talk.  Immediately press the PTT button to keep the assigned channel.
 14221-1510-2000, Rev. C 55 Table 10-2:  Alert Tones during Trunked Operations NAME TONE DESCRIPTION Call Queued 1 high-pitched tone Sounds after pressing the PTT button indicating the radio system has placed the call request in the queue. The receiving unit(s) also sound(s) the tone to indicate they will receive a call shortly. System Busy 3 low-pitched tones Sounds if the radio is keyed when the radio system is busy, if no channels are available for sending the message, if the call queue is full, or if an individual call is being attempted to a radio that is transmitting. Call Denied 1 low-pitched tone Indicates the radio is not authorized on the radio system that has been selected. Carrier Control Timer 5 short high-pitched warning tones followed by a long low-pitched tone Sounds if the programmed time for continuous transmission is exceeded. The transmitter shuts down shortly after the alert, interrupting communications. Release and re-key the PTT button to maintain communications. This resets the carrier control timer and turns the transmitter back on. Key Press Alert 1 short tone Indicates a key has been pressed. A short low-pitched tone indicates no action was taken because the key is not active in the current mode. Page  3 high-pitched tones P25 Trunking Only:  In P25 trunked mode, if the receiving radio accepts a page, both the receiving and transmitting radios emit three high-pitched tones. Out of Range 1 low pitched tone Indicates the radio is in Wide Area Scan. The radio periodically beeps when in Wide Area Scan. 10.3 GROUP CALLS ON A TRUNKED SYSTEM 10.3.1 Receiving a Group Call 1. Turn the radio on by rotating its Power On/Off/Volume control clockwise out of the detent position. The  radio’s display activates and if enabled through programming, a short alert signal sounds to indicate the radio is ready to use. 2. Select the desired trunked radio system. Refer to Section 9.7 as necessary. The currently selected system is indicated in the top line of the display. If a P25 trunked radio system was selected, the   (P25) icon appears at the bottom of the display. CC SCAN (for Control Channel Scan) will appear in the display until the radio has successfully obtained a trunked system control channel. If this message remains for an extended period, select a different trunked radio system within radio range. 3. Select the desired group. Refer to Section 9.8 as necessary. The currently selected group is indicated in the middle line of the display. The radio is now ready to receive calls on the group. 4. When the radio receives a group call on the selected group, it unmutes, the calling radio’s name or GR and the calling radio’s unit ID number displays. Also, the   (Busy) icon displays and the Tx/Busy indicator lights green. 5. If necessary, make a volume adjustment by rotating the Power On/Off/Volume control. 10.3.2 Transmitting a Group Call 1. Set the radio to receive calls on the desired trunked radio system and group per the previous section. 2. When the group is clear (i.e., no call is being received on it), press and hold the microphone’s PTT button.  The  (Transmit) icon appears at the bottom of the display and the radio performs the
14221-1510-2000, Rev. C   56 necessary signaling required to obtain a working channel (i.e., communication radio channel) for the voice transmission. 3. When the working channel is assigned by the radio system, the Tx/Busy indicator lights red and a short beep sounds in the speaker/headset to indicate it is OK to begin speaking into the radio’s microphone.   If two or more tones or a high-pitched tone is heard, the system may be busy and the call request has been placed in queue or the request has been denied for some reason. Refer to Section 10.2 on page 54 for additional information. 4. Hold the microphone approximately 2 inches from the mouth and speak into the microphone at a normal voice level. Never shout or whisper into the microphone. 5. Release the PTT button when the transmission is complete, and listen for a reply. 10.4 INDIVIDUAL CALLS ON A TRUNKED SYSTEM 10.4.1 Receiving and Responding to an Individual Call When the radio receives an individual call (a call directed only to the user’s radio), it unmutes so the call’s audio is heard in the speaker/headset, INDV and the   (Busy) icons appear in the display, and the Tx/Busy indicator lights green. The calling radio unit’s name also displays if the name is present in the radio’s individual call list for the calling radio. Otherwise, ID and the calling radio unit’s ID number displays. The radio can also be programmed to ring when an individual call is received. If ring is enabled, it begins five (5) seconds after the calling radio unkeys and it continues until the PTT button or the CLEAR button is pressed. The ring volume level is adjustable via the radio’s Power On/Off/Volume control.   The microphone’s hookswitch functions the same as the CLEAR button in individual call, phone call, and menu modes. If a response is made to the call prior to the programmed call-back time-out, the call is directed to the originating unit. If a response is not made before the call-back time-out, the radio returns to normal receive mode, but WHC is displayed. If the caller’s radio ID number is not received, UNKNOWN displays for the duration of the call. In this case, there is no call-back hang time. If the INDV function is programmed on a radio menu or to a radio button, respond to the call after the call-back time-out by selecting this function/button. At this point, the radio displays the caller’s name or ID number and WHCI=1. Pressing the PTT button at this point initiates an individual call back to the original caller. (If the last call received was a group call, the display shows WHCG=1, but pressing the PTT button places the call as an individual call.) The radio stores the names/unit IDs of the last 10 callers in the Calls Received List. Individual calls are stored in the top half of the list (1 to 10) and group calls are stored in the bottom half of the list (1 to 10). The most recent call is stored in position 1, the second most recent call is stored in position 2, etc. NOTENOTE
 14221-1510-2000, Rev. C 57  Calls Received List  If the INDV function is programmed on a radio menu or to a radio button, access the list by selecting this function on the menu or by pressing the programmed button twice. Next, press the + or – buttons to scroll through the list. At this point pressing the microphone’s PTT button will initiate a call to the currently selected individual caller. Alternately, press the MENU button to display the time elapsed since the call was received from the currently selected individual caller. 10.4.2 Sending an Individual Call The following procedures describe how to initiate and send/transmit an individual call. 1. To select a previously stored individual radio unit, select INDV from the menu or press the button programmed with the INDV function. The   (Special Call) icon appears at the bottom of the display. Next, use the + and – buttons to scroll through the list of stored individual radio units. While in the individual call list, the MENU button can be pressed to toggle the display between the radio unit’s name and its ID number. 2. With the desired radio unit selected, press the microphone’s  PTT button. The radio performs the necessary signaling to obtain a communication channel, the  (Transmit) icon turns on, and the   (Special Call) icon turns off. When the signaling is complete and the radio is clear to transmit, the Transmit/Busy indicator lights red and the channel access tone sounds. The display indicates the called radio unit’s name if found in the list of stored individuals or ID followed by the logical ID number of the radio unit being called.  INDV also displays. 3. Hold the microphone approximately 2 inches from the mouth and speak into the microphone at a normal voice level. Never shout or whisper into the microphone. 4. Release the PTT button when the transmission is complete, and listen for a reply. 10.4.3 Call Storage Lists There are two lists available for call storage in the radio: The Calls Received List (1 through 10 as previously described) and the Personality List (1 through 99 as defined by the user). When the individual call mode is entered via the INDV function (i.e., by selecting this programmed menu function or by pressing the programmed  INDV  button  twice), the Calls Received List is available. Toggle to the Personality List by pressing any other button or by pressing the programmed INDV button again. If wrap is enabled, the Calls Received List wraps on itself and not into the other list.
14221-1510-2000, Rev. C   58  Calls Received List Personality List  The Calls Received List shows all ten (10) storage locations. If no calls have been received since the radio was powered up, this list will be empty. In any case, the Personality List is available upon entering the individual call mode via the INDV function. When in the Calls Received List, pressing the MENU button toggles the time stamp display on and off. The time stamp display  indicates how long ago the call was received. It  indicates this information as HH:MM:SS where HH = hours, MM = minutes, and SS = seconds. When in the Personality List, pressing the MENU button toggles the Logical IDentification (LID) display on and off. This is the ID numbers of the radios. 10.5 EMERGENCY OPERATIONS ON A TRUNKED SYSTEM 10.5.1 General Information The radio’s ability to declare an emergency, clear an emergency, remain locked on an emergency and group, emergency audio operation, and display freeze can each be configured via radio programming. If the radio is scanning when an emergency is declared, scanning stops and it only restarts after the emergency is cleared. 10.5.2 Receiving an Emergency When receiving an emergency call from the selected system and group, an alert beep sounds, the   (Busy) icon displays, and the Tx/Busy indicator lights green. Also, RXEMER blinks in the display until the emergency condition is cleared. In this case, follow standard emergency procedures established for the respective radio system. 10.5.3 Declaring an Emergency To declare (send/transmit) an emergency call to the selected system and group or to an optionally programmed emergency group, follow this procedure. It is assumed the Home/Emergency button is programmed to provide an emergency declaration function, and the radio is programmed with the emergency declaration capability: 1. Set the radio to receive calls on the desired trunked radio system. Refer to Section 10.3.1 on page 55 as necessary. 2. If the radio is programmed to transmit an emergency on the selected group, select the desired group to transmit the emergency on. Refer to Section 9.8 on page 44 as necessary. 3. Press and hold the red Home/Emergency  button.  The required minimum button hold time is programmable between 0 and 127 seconds; consult with the radio system’s network administration
 14221-1510-2000, Rev. C 59 personnel for the specific hold time. Afterwards, the radio transmits an emergency call request with the radio’s ID number until an emergency working channel assignment is received. 4. When the emergency working channel assignment is received, the radio sounds a single beep (auto-key alert tone) indicating it is ready for voice transmission. TXEMER blinks in the display until the emergency is cleared. 5. Press PTT and speak into the microphone in a normal voice. When the radio is transmitting, the (Transmit) icon appears at the bottom of the display and the Tx/Busy indicator lights red. 6. Release PTT when the transmission is complete and listen for a reply. 10.5.4 Clearing an Emergency If the radio is programmed with emergency clear  capability, an emergency can be cleared as follows: Press and hold the CLEAR button, then press the red Home/Emergency button, then finally release both buttons. 10.6 SYSTEM SCAN OPERATIONS ON A TRUNKED SYSTEM 10.6.1 General Information The radio can be programmed with several different radio system scan related features as described in the following subsections. These features are automatically enabled upon radio power up. A button or menu option may also be defined to allow these features, as programmed, to be toggled on and off. The system scan state is maintained through system changes performed by the radio operator, but it defaults to the on state at radio power-up. 10.6.2 Wide Area System Scan The radio can be programmed for Wide Area System Scan operation for roaming across trunked radio systems. Trunked radio systems manage the radios assigned to the system via control channels throughout the  radio  systems. Upon the loss of the currently selected system’s control channel, the  radio can be programmed to automatically scan the control channels of other systems. During this scan condition, WA SCAN displays. If a new control channel is found, the radio switches to the new system and sounds an alert tone. If the radio cannot find the control channel of the selected system and begins Wide Area System Scan (WA Scan), the radio only scans for the priority system control channel if the priority system is in the WA Scan list. 10.6.3 ProScan The radio can be programmed for ProScan™ system scan operation for multi-site applications. When the currently selected system’s signal quality drops below a predefined level, ProScan provides the radio with the ability to select a new system for the radio to communicate on. This is accomplished by enabling each radio to analyze the signal quality of its current control channel and compare it with the signal quality of the control channel for each site in its adjacency scan list. The signal quality metric used for the ProScan algorithm is based on a combination of both Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI)  and Control Channel Verification (CCV)  measurements. When the selected system’s signal quality level degrades below a programmed level, the radio begins to look for a better control channel. Once a control channel that exceeds the programmed parameters is found, the radio changes to the new system and emits a tone. If the control channel is completely lost, the radio enters Wide Area System Scanning and searches the programmed adjacent systems until a suitable control channel is found.
14221-1510-2000, Rev. C   60 The radio monitors the priority system and switches to the priority system if the priority system meets the criteria. If ProScan is enabled, the rate at which the radio scans for the priority system is defined by the System Sample Time control. 10.6.4 Priority System Scan The radio can also be programmed for Priority System Scan. To ensure this feature operates correctly, the control channel of the priority system must be located on channel one unless the ProScan algorithm is being used. The priority system is the desired or preferred system. While receiving the control channel of the selected system, the radio periodically leaves the selected system and searches for the control channel of the priority system at a programmable rate. The programmable rate is defined by the value in the Priority Scan Time control, unless the ProScan algorithm is enabled. This priority scan timer is reset each time the PTT button is pressed or when a call is received. If the priority system control channel is found, or meets the predefined ProScan criteria, the radio automatically switches to the priority system. 10.6.5 Turning System Scan On and Off 10.6.5.1 With the Menu (if programmed) If the System Scan function is programmed to a radio menu, press the MENU button and then press the + or – buttons to scroll through the menu until SYS SCAN displays. Next, press the MENU button again to toggle the System Scan state between on and off.  SYSC ON or SYSC OFF displays for two seconds to show the new system scan state. 10.6.5.2 With a Button (if programmed) If the System Scan function is programmed to a radio button, press this button to toggle the system scan feature on and off.  SYSC ON or SYSC OFF displays for two seconds to show the new system scan state. 10.7 GROUP SCAN OPERATIONS ON A TRUNKED SYSTEM 10.7.1 General Information Talk groups on the radio’s scan list are scanned when the scan feature is turned on (i.e., enabled). Groups are added to the scan list on a per system basis through programming, the radio keypad, or both, dependent upon programming. The scan list can be changed by the user from the keypad if the radio is not programmed with a fixed list. Each system’s group scan list is retained in memory when the radio is turned off. The radio can also be programmed to provide Trunked Priority Group Scan capability, which operates similar to priority scan in analog conventional mode. Group scan related features include: • Scan Hang Time — The delay time the radio waits before resuming scan after the microphone’s push-to-talk button is released or after the received call has ended (i.e., after the working channel has dropped). • TX Select — The group the radio transmits on while scanning. The radio is programmed to transmit on either the scanned group or the selected group. • Scan List (privileges) — This feature allows or prohibits scan list changes by the user. • P1 Programming  —  Priority group programming is accomplished by one (and only one) of the following three methods:  From the keypad, where the priority programming is not fixed and does not follow the selected channel;
 14221-1510-2000, Rev. C 61  Priority 1 group programming follows the selected channel; or,  Priority 1 group programming is fixed during PC programming and cannot be changed by the user. • P1 Always Scan — Determines if the Priority 1 group is always scanned, regardless of the scan state set by the user. 10.7.2 Turning Scan On and Off Toggle scan operation between on (enabled) and off (disabled) by pressing the button programmed with the SCAN function (typically the SCAN button) or, if programmed, by selecting this function on the menu. When scan is scanning groups, (i.e., when scan is on/enabled), the   (Scan) icon rotates in the bottom of the display and the radio scans the groups on the trunked group scan list.   Scanning stops when the radio is receiving or transmitting a call. Scanning also stops while  the  microphone is off-hook, if the hookswitch feature is enabled through programming.   If the radio is not programmed to scan, SCAN DIS (for scan disabled) displays when the SCAN function is selected. When a group on the scan list receives a channel assignment, the radio unmutes on the assigned channel, the Transmit/Busy indicator lights green and the received scan group is displayed. The radio continues scanning if a new group is selected when scan is on. If the radio is receiving a call on a non-selected group when scan is turned off, it returns to the selected group. Pressing the microphone’s PTT button when scan is on causes the radio to transmit either on the displayed group or on the currently selected group, depending on programming. When the radio is scanning, selecting the SCAN ADD  function  (if programmed) recalls the scanned group that last received a call. This group is recalled for a period equal to the scan hang-time. 10.7.3 Priority Group Scanning When scan is on (enabled) and the scan list has Priority 1 and Priority 2 groups, the radio listens to calls on those groups and the selected group. While receiving a scanned group call, the radio continues to monitor the selected Priority 1 and Priority 2 groups and drops the call if the selected group or other higher priority call becomes active. During a Priority 2 call the radio continues to monitor for a Priority 1 group call. The radio monitors for Agency and Fleet calls that correspond to the Agency and Fleet associated with the Priority 1 and Priority 2 groups. Priority Agency and Fleet calls are indicated by displaying AGENCY or FLEET and associated Priority 1 or 2 group. NOTENOTE
14221-1510-2000, Rev. C   62 10.7.4 Adding Groups to the Scan List and Changing a Group’s Scan Priority Either the SCAN ADD function or the SCAN A/D (add/delete) function can be used to add a group to the scan list and change its scan priority level. This procedure assumes the desired group for adding to the scan list is programmed in the currently selected system but not currently on the scan list. Also, it is assumed the radio is not programmed with a fixed scan list. 1. Turn scan off, if it is not already off. This can be accomplished by pressing the button programmed with the SCAN function (typically the SCAN button) or, if programmed, by selecting this function on the menu. When scan is off, the   icon is not displayed. 2. Select the SCAN ADD function or the SCAN A/D function to add the currently selected group to the scan list as a non-priority scan group. Either function may be programmed to a radio button or on the menu. When set as a non-priority scan group, the   icon (non-priority scan icon = 3 bars) appears at the bottom of the display. If neither function is programmed, it is not possible to add the group to the scan list unless the radio is re-programmed.   If the radio displays FIXED LST, it is programmed with a fixed scan list and this list cannot be changed without radio re-programming. 3. If desired, select the same function again to set the group as the Priority 2 scan group. The   icon (Priority 2 scan icon = 2 bars) appears at the bottom of the display. 4. If desired, select the same function again to set the group as the Priority 1 scan group. The   icon (Priority 1 scan icon = 1 bar) appears at the bottom of the display.   If the radio displays FIXED P1, a group has been programmed as the fixed Priority 1 group. In this case, another group cannot be set as the Priority 1 group, and the fixed Priority 1 group cannot be changed from the Priority 1 group unless the radio is re-programmed. 5. Another group can be added to the list by selecting the group and then repeating from step 2. 6. If desired, turn scan on by selecting the SCAN function. If the Priority 1 and Priority 2 groups were already set and a new group is assigned as the Priority 1 or the Priority 2 scan group, then the previously assigned group changes to non-priority scanning. When using the SCAN ADD function, the priority level selection sequence advances the group to the next higher priority level and stops at Priority 1. To select a lower priority level, the group must be deleted from the scan list (using the SCAN DEL function or the SCAN A/D function) and then added back to the scan list. Each new group added to the scan list starts at the non-priority level (i.e., the lowest level).  When using the SCAN A/D function, the priority level selection sequence wraps from Priority 1 to no scan. Since this function can both add and delete, it may be desired so other functions can be programmed to the limited number of radio buttons. 10.7.5 Deleting Groups from the Scan List Either the SCAN DEL (scan delete) function or the SCAN A/D (scan add/delete) function can be used to delete a group from the scan list. The SCAN A/D function can also be used to change the group’s scan priority level. This procedure assumes the desired group for deleting from the scan list is programmed in NOTENOTE
 14221-1510-2000, Rev. C 63 the currently selected system and currently on the scan list. Also, it is assumed the radio is not programmed with a fixed scan list. 1. Turn scan off, if it is not already off. This can be accomplished by pressing the button programmed with the SCAN function (typically the SCAN button) or, if programmed, by selecting this function on the menu. When scan is off, the   icon is not displayed. 2. If programmed, select the SCAN DEL function once to delete/remove the group from the scan list. The scan icon clears from the display when this function is selected. Alternately, select the SCAN A/D function one or more times until no scan icons (i.e., no bars) appear in the display. At this point, the group is removed from the scan list. If neither function is programmed, it is not possible to delete the group from the scan list unless the radio is re-programmed. 3. If desired, turn scan on by selecting the SCAN function. 10.7.6 Nuisance Delete If not the currently selected group, a group can be temporarily deleted from the scan list by selecting the SCAN DEL (scan delete) function when the radio is scanning and receiving a call on the unwanted group. This action prevents calls from being received on the unselected group, since the group is temporarily removed from the scan list. Deletions performed in this manner do not remain deleted after the radio is turned off and back on. 10.8 TELEPHONE INTERCONNECT CALL OPERATIONS ON A TRUNKED SYSTEM 10.8.1 Receiving a Telephone Interconnect Call When the radio receives a telephone interconnect call, it unmutes on the assigned working channel, and displays PHONE, INDV and the   (Busy) icon. A telephone interconnect call is handled similar to an individual call in the trunked system; it is only directed to an individual radio in the system. To respond to the caller and proceed with the call, press the microphone’s PTT button and speak into the mic at a normal voice level. When done speaking, release the PTT button and listen for a reply. Repeat as necessary to complete the conversation. See the DTMF Overdial section  that follows if access to services requiring “overdial” is needed. Overdial operations are available for any special call whether it is an individual call or a telephone interconnect call. 10.8.2 Sending a Telephone Interconnect Call Use the following procedure to initiate and complete a telephone interconnect call: 1. To select the desired programmed telephone number, select the PHONE function (programmed menu or button) then use the + or – buttons to scroll through the list until the desired number is displayed. 2. Press and release the PTT button. The radio performs the necessary signaling required to obtain a communication channel for the call. When the signaling is complete and the radio is clear to transmit, its  Transmit/Busy indicator lights red and the channel access tone sounds. The display shows *PHONE* and indicates the accompanying name. The radio then automatically transmits the number.
14221-1510-2000, Rev. C   64 Unsuccessful interconnect signaling returns the radio to the normal receive mode and the number remains displayed until the special call is cleared by pressing the CLEAR button or the time-out expires or another group or system is selected. 3. Telephone ringing is heard. When someone answers the phone, press the microphone’s PTT button and speak into the mic at a normal voice level. Release the PTT button to listen to the caller. 4. To terminate the call, momentarily press the CLEAR button.   The radio is only capable of half-duplex conversations. The caller’s message can only be sent if the PTT button is pressed (the radio is transmitting) and the caller can only be heard when the PTT is released (the radio is receiving). 10.8.3 DTMF Overdial of Programmed Numbers Once the radio has established a connection to the public telephone system, it may be necessary to “overdial” more digits to access banking services, answering machines, credit card calls or other types of systems that require DTMF (Dual-Tone Multi-Frequency) access digits. Overdial operation can also be used to initiate a telephone interconnect call via DTMF signaling if a dial tone has already been accessed on the system. Telephone numbers and other number sequences needed during overdial operations can be programmed into the radio’s phone list. 1. Follow the Sending a Telephone Interconnect Call procedure to establish a connection to the telephone system, or consult the radio system administrator for the procedure necessary to access a dial tone on the trunked radio system. 2. To select the desired programmed number, select the PHONE function (programmed menu or button) then use the + or – buttons to scroll through the list and select the desired number. 3. Press the microphone’s PTT button to send/transmit the selected number. If a number needs to be transmitted again during the call, it must be selected again via the PHONE function and the PTT button must be pressed again. This requirement prevents unwanted numbers from being transmitted the next time(s) the PTT button is pressed during the call. The overdial selection mode remains active until the call is dropped, cleared, or the radio’s MENU button is pressed. The overdial selection mode can be re-entered if the call is still active by pressing the MENU button. 10.9 MOBILE DATA ON A TRUNKED SYSTEM 10.9.1 General Information During trunked mode operations, voice or data calls can be transmitted or received by the radio. However, the radio can handle only one type of call at a time. Selection of either data or voice is selected transparently by the operator through normal usage of the radio. The radio can be connected to a Mobile Data Terminal (MDT) or to a host computer. Any RS-232 compatible device that supports the Radio Data Interface (RDI) protocol (Version 1.91 or greater) can be connected to the radio. Support for a MDT or host computer is a programmable option. Additionally, a radio programmed for a host computer can also be programmed for data-only operation (i.e., no voice calls can be transmitted or received).  NOTE
 14221-1510-2000, Rev. C 65  Always turn the radio off before connecting or disconnecting any cables, including the data cable. Also, turn power to the radio off when docking or undocking a connected laptop computer. Failure to turn the power off can damage the radio, requiring service by a Harris approved service center. 10.9.2 Mobile Data-Related Messages The following messages may be displayed during the various states of data mode of operation: TX DATA — Displayed when the radio is transmitting a data call (earlier radio software only). RX DATA — Displayed when the radio is receiving a data call (earlier radio software only). DATA T/R — Displayed when the radio is transmitting or receiving a data call (later radio software only). DATA OFF — Displayed when the radio is in the data disabled state.  DATA ON — Displayed for two seconds when the radio is toggled to the data enabled state.  10.9.3 Mobile Data Off Operation The radio can be placed in the data disabled state by any of the following methods. When the data state is disabled, the DATA OFF displays. An ongoing data call is allowed to complete except when an emergency is declared. • Removing the microphone from the hookswitch (hookswitch option must be enabled by programming). • Declaring an emergency (not to be used unless an actual emergency condition exists). Alert tone sounds. • Pressing the OPTION button. Alert tone sounds. • Selecting the programmed function via the MENU button. 10.9.4 Mobile Data On Operation The data state is enabled by one of the following (depending on how it was disabled). DATA ON displays for two (2) seconds then the display returns to normal. • Replacing the microphone into the hookswitch (going on-hook). Only valid if the DATA OFF operation was entered by removing the microphone from the hookswitch (going off-hook). • Clearing an emergency, but valid only if an emergency caused DATA OFF operation. 10.9.5 Exiting Mobile Data Calls Under normal conditions, the radio enters the scan lockout mode and returns to the control channel after completion of a data call (transmit or receive). If, during a data call, one of the following conditions occurs, the data call is immediately terminated and the radio performs the desired function: • The PTT is activated. • An emergency is declared by pressing the programmed Emergency/Home button. • A group or system change is made. CAUTION
14221-1510-2000, Rev. C   66 10.9.6 Scan Lockout Mode Following the transmission or reception of a data call, if scan is enabled, scanning stops temporarily (duration programmed). During this time the scan status icon stops  rotating to indicate that scan is enabled but temporarily suspended. This mode is normally exited when the programmed time expires; however, the following actions terminate the scan lockout mode before the timeout is completed. • Pressing the CLEAR button. • Pressing the microphone’s PTT button. • Removing the microphone from its hookswitch (i.e., going “off-hook”). • Changing the currently selected group or system. • Entering phone call mode. • Entering individual call mode. • Receiving a new emergency assignment. • Declaring or clearing an emergency. • Receiving an individual or phone call. • Receiving an Agency, Fleet, or System All Call. • Pressing the SCAN button (or selecting the SCAN function) to turn scan on or off. 10.9.7 Data Lockout Mode The data lockout mode is a programmed mode. When enabled, the radio does not respond to any data channel assignments and prevents receive data calls from interrupting voice calls. Transmit data calls are still initiated when needed by the operator. After a programmed time, the radio responds to receive data calls; however, the following conditions clear the data lockout mode: • Pressing the CLEAR button. • Transmitting a data call. • Changing the system. • Declaring an emergency. • Pressing the SCAN button (or selecting the SCAN function) to turn scan on or off. 10.10 STATUS OPERATIONS ON A TRUNKED SYSTEM The Status feature allows for the transmission of programmed statuses to the radio system.  Different statuses can be programmed into the radio and selected one-at-a-time for transmission. Each status is assigned an ID number that is cross-referenced with the representative status condition established by radio system administration personnel. For example, a particular status ID number could be assign as meaning “Off Duty” throughout the radio system. Note that the same ID number could be programmed, for example, as “STATUS 1” in one radio but as “STATUS 5” in another radio. At dispatch consoles in the radio system, the Status feature is typically referred to as Request Status Message (RSM). One or more radio buttons may be programmed for status operation. For examples, the A button could be programmed to transmit an “In Route” status after it is pressed, the B button could be programmed to transmit an “At Scene” status after it is pressed, and the C button could be programmed to transmit a “Send EMT” status after it is pressed.
 14221-1510-2000, Rev. C 67 To transmit a status, press the respective button to set the status for transmission. After a short delay or after being polled by the radio system (per radio programming), the status will be transmitted. Consult with radio system’s network administration personnel for programming information for a specific radio.   Transmission of the status set for transmission can be canceled before the timer expires (or before the radio system polls the radio for it, if so programmed) by pressing the CLEAR button. This may be necessary if an incorrect status was selected. If the radio is programmed for automatic status transmission, it transmits the selected status each time the status is set for transmission (and if used, after the timer expires). However, if the radio is programmed for polled status transmission, the radio waits until it is polled by the radio system (i.e., the trunked site) before it transmits the selected status set for transmission. If the status cannot be transmitted immediately, it is stored in the radio’s memory where it can be polled by the radio system at a future time. When the radio system receives a transmitted status, it sends an acknowledgement message back to the radio and the radio then sounds a high-pitched tone. If  the  radio system does not receive the status properly, the radio sounds a low-pitched tone upon receipt of the acknowledgement message from the radio system. If no status has been programmed for the selected status, the NO ENTRY displays and the radio sounds a low-pitched tone. 10.11  MESSAGE OPERATIONS ON A TRUNKED SYSTEM The Message feature allows for the transmission of programmed messages to the radio system. Different messages can be programmed into the radio and selected one-at-a-time for transmission. Each message is assigned an ID number that is cross-referenced with the representative message condition established by radio system administration personnel. For example, a particular message ID number could be assign as meaning “Please Call” throughout the radio system. Note that the same ID number could be programmed, for example, as “MESSAGE 1” in one radio but as “MESSAGE 5” in another radio. At dispatch consoles in the radio system, the Message feature is typically referred to as Request-To-Talk (RTT), since it allows a dispatcher to quickly set-up an individual call back to the radio that transmitted a message. One or more radio buttons may be programmed for message operation. For examples, the A button could be programmed to transmit a message corresponding to “I-Call ASAP” after it is pressed, and the B button could be programmed to transmit a message corresponding to “Run Plate” after it is pressed. To transmit a message, press the respective button to set the message for transmission. After a short delay or after being polled by the radio system (per radio programming), the message will be transmitted. Consult with radio system’s network administration personnel for programming information for a specific radio.   Transmission of the message set for transmission can be canceled before the timer expires (or before the radio system polls the radio for it, if so programmed) by pressing the CLEAR button. This may be necessary if an incorrect message was selected. If the radio is programmed for automatic message transmission, it transmits the selected message each time the message is set for transmission (and if used, after the timer expires). However, if the radio is programmed for polled message transmission, the radio waits until it is polled by the radio system (i.e., the trunked site) before it transmits the selected message set for transmission. NOTENOTE
14221-1510-2000, Rev. C   68 If the message cannot be transmitted immediately, it is stored in the radio’s memory where it can be polled by the radio system at a future time. When the radio system receives a transmitted message, it sends an acknowledgement message back to the radio and the radio then sounds a high-pitched tone. If the radio system does not receive the message properly, the radio sounds a low-pitched tone upon receipt of the acknowledgement message from the radio system. If no message has been programmed for the selected message, the NO ENTRY displays and the radio sounds a low-pitched tone. 10.12 CONVENTIONAL FAILSOFT (EDACS/ProVoice Only) In the unlikely event of an EDACS/ProVoice trunked radio  system failure, communications can take place in a system mode know as “conventional failsoft” mode. In this mode, the radio is automatically directed to a communications channel set up for this purpose, and the radio displays a CONV FS message. An increase in activity on the channel during conventional failsoft operation may be noticed. In this case, do not to transmit until the channel is clear. Operation during conventional failsoft is the same as operation on a conventional system, except that it is not possible to select a communications channel, or use emergency and special call. When trunking is restored, the radio is automatically returned to normal operation.   Trunked Emergency and Special Call do not function when the conventional failsoft mode is active. In addition, the group control (GRP) does not operate.  10.13 CONVENTIONAL PRIORITY SCAN The Conventional Priority Scan feature (sometimes referred to as “ECP1 Scan”) allows the radio, when operating on a trunked radio system, to scan a programmed conventional system and channel as a priority channel. If activity is detected on this channel, the radio unmutes and remains on this channel for the programmable hang-time. This feature is available for EDACS,  ProVoice  and P25 trunked radio systems/modes. It must be programmed to the radio’s trunked menu or to a radio button to allow it to be turned on and off. At radio power-up, it is always off (disabled).  10.14 DYNAMIC REGROUP OPERATION 10.14.1 General Information Dynamic regroup operation is a feature that permits up to eight (8) talk groups to be added to a radio by network administration personnel. The radio must be programmed to respond to regrouping. Dynamic regrouping is not activated in a radio until an activation message is sent from the radio system. Each radio that receives and acknowledges regrouping instructions is successfully regrouped. Pressing and holding the CLEAR button for 2.5 seconds toggles the radio into and out of the dynamic regroup group set. A double beep sounds for entry or exit. The radio displays REGR_0x where x is a digit of 1 to 8 indicating the group when dynamic regroup has been enabled by the user. If the radio is in dynamic regroup and the user selects a group that has not been regrouped, NO ENTRY displays. The radio is prevented from transmitting and receiving calls in this condition except for scanned groups. 10.14.2 Emergency Operation If the programmed group set on the currently selected system contains an emergency/home group and the radio is in dynamic regroup, the radio exits dynamic regroup and declares the emergency on the home NOTE
 14221-1510-2000, Rev. C 69 group. If no emergency/home group is present, the radio declares the emergency on the currently selected dynamic regroup group. 10.15 PAGING OPERATIONS (P25 TRUNKED SYSTEMS ONLY) The radio’s paging feature, if programmed, sends a “ping” type message to another radio in a P25 trunked system. It functions similar to the individual call feature. To initiate and complete a page: 1. Press the MENU button to activate the menu function. The programmed menu functions appear in the display. The > symbol at the left of a menu function indicates the currently selected function. Alternately, if another button such as one (1) of the three (3) preset buttons is programmed with the Page function, press this button and advance to step 4. 2. Press the + or – buttons to scroll through the menu until PAGE is selected with the > symbol. 3. Press the MENU button again to access the individual call list. 4. Press the + or – buttons to select a previously stored radio via the individual call list. While in the individual call list, press the MENU button to toggle the display between the calling radio’s call name (i.e., alias) and the calling radio’s unit ID number (i.e., logical ID number). 5. Press the microphone’s PTT button. The radio performs the necessary signaling on the control channel. On the calling radio, the called individual’s name if found in the individuals call list, or ID followed by the radio unit ID number of the radio being called displays. If the receiving radio receives the page and responds, both radios emit three (3) high-pitched tones. The receiving radio also displays PAGE and the calling radio’s identification.

The transmitter shuts down shortly after the alert, interrupting communications. Release and re-key the PTT button to maintain communications. This resets the carrier control timer and turns the transmitter back on. Key Press Alert 1 short tone Indicates a key has been pressed. A short low-pitched tone indicates no action was taken because the key is not active in the current mode. 11.3 GROUP CALLS ON A P25 CONVENTIONAL SYSTEM 11.3.1 Receiving a Group Call 1. If not already, turn the radio on by rotating its Power On/Off/Volume control clockwise out of the detent position. The radio’s display activates and if enabled through programming, a short alert signal sounds to indicate the radio is ready to use. 2. Select the desired P25 conventional radio system. Refer to Section 9.7 as necessary. The currently selected system is indicated in the top line of the display, and the   (P25) icon appears at the bottom of the display. 3. Select the desired group. Refer to Section 9.8 as necessary. The currently selected group is indicated in the middle line of the display. The radio is now ready to receive calls on the group. It unmutes according to the squelch mode defined by radio programming (monitor, normal, selective). 4. When the radio receives a group call, it unmutes, GR and the calling radio’s unit ID or the group’s name displays. Also, the Tx/Busy indicator lights green. 5. If necessary, make a volume adjustment by rotating the Power On/Off/Volume control. 11.3.2 Transmitting a Group Call 1. Set the radio to receive calls on the desired P25 conventional radio system and talk group per the previous section. 2. When the group is clear (i.e., no call is being received on it), press and hold the PTT button. 3. After the call originate tone sounds (a short mid-pitched beep), begin speaking into the microphone. When speaking, hold the microphone approximately 2 inches from the mouth. Some radios may be
14221-1510-2000, Rev. C   74 programmed without a call originate tone. If so, pause a short time after depressing the PTT button before beginning to speak. 4. Release the PTT button when the transmission is complete and listen for a reply. 5. Repeat transmissions as necessary. 11.4 INDIVIDUAL CALLS ON A P25 CONVENTIONAL SYSTEM 11.4.1 Receiving and Responding to an Individual Call An individual call is a unit-to-unit radio call which involves only two (2) radios. When the radio receives an individual call from another radio, it unmutes (i.e., audio transmitted from the calling radio is heard in the speaker/headset) and the   (Busy) status icon displays. The radio may also be programmed to ring, as described in the next paragraph. Upon receiving an individual call, the radio displays either the logical ID number or the name of the radio unit that originated the individual call. If the originating radio unit’s name is present in the radio (respective to its ID number), the originating radio unit’s name is displayed. If the originating  radio unit’s name is not present in the radio (respective to its  ID number), the originating radio’s ID number is displayed. The radio can be programmed to ring when an individual call is received. If so, the ring begins five (5) seconds after the caller (i.e., the originating radio) unkeys and it will continue until the microphone’s PTT button is pressed, or the CLEAR button is pressed, or the individual call mode is entered. The volume level of the ring is adjustable via the radio’s Power On/Off/Volume control.   The microphone’s hookswitch functions the same as the CLEAR button in individual call, phone call, and menu modes. If a response is made to the call by pressing the microphone’s PTT  button  prior to expiration of the programmed call-back time-out period, the call will be automatically directed to the originating unit via an individual call. If a response is not made before the call-back time-out period expires, the radio will return to normal receive display, and WHC (Who Has Called) will appear in the display. To respond after expiration of the call-back time-out  period, press the  programmed Individual Call function key (if programmed) or access this function via the menu. The radio’s display will show the caller’s ID and WHCI=1 (Who Has Called – Individual 1) . At this point, pressing the microphone’s PTT button will initiate an individual call back to the original caller. Pressing the CLEAR button cancels reception of an individual call and returns the radio to the normal operation. In this case, if the name and/or ID number of the originating radio is not known, the Who Has Called (WHC) list must be accessed in order to call the originating radio back. Pressing the microphone’s  PTT  button  will initiate an individual call to the displayed logical ID. Powering the radio off and on will clear this list. The basic procedure to receive an individual call on a P25 conventional radio system is: 1. If not already, turn the radio on by rotating its Power On/Off/Volume control clockwise out of the detent position. The radio’s display activates and if enabled through programming, a short alert signal sounds to indicate the radio is ready to use. 2. Select the desired P25 conventional radio system. Refer to Section 9.7 as necessary. The currently selected system is indicated in the top line of the display. 3. The radio is now ready to receive group and individual calls. It unmutes according to the squelch mode defined per radio programming (monitor, normal, selective). NOTE
 14221-1510-2000, Rev. C 75 4. When the radio receives an  individual call, it unmutes and the unit ID/name of the calling (i.e., transmitting) radio displays. 5. Rotate the Power/On/Off/Volume control to adjust the radio to desired volume level. 6. Press the PTT button to respond to the caller. Unanswered individual calls appear in the Who Has Called (WHC) list. 11.4.2 Transmitting an Individual Call 1. Press the MENU button to activate the menu function. The programmed menu functions appear in the display. The > symbol at the left of a menu function indicates the currently selected function. 2. Select  the desired radio unit for calling from either the Calls Received List (WHCI1 through WHCI10) or a pre-stored unit via the Individual Call (INDV) menu function (if programmed). To select a pre-stored unit (if programmed) from the Individual Call menu, scroll through the list of pre-stored phone numbers using the + or -  buttons until the desired ID  number  or unit name is displayed, the press the MENU button. 3. Press the microphone’s PTT button. When the radio is clear to transmit   turns on,   turns off, and the channel access tone sounds. The called individual’s name (or radio ID number) and INDV (Individual) display. 11.5 EMERGENCY GROUP CALLS ON A P25 CONVENTIONAL SYSTEM   When operating on a P25 conventional system, there is no method available for a system-wide emergency clear. An emergency group call must be manually cleared at each radio. See Section 11.5.3 that follows for clearing methods that can be used. 11.5.1 Receiving an Emergency Group Call 1. If not already, turn the radio on by rotating its Power On/Off/Volume control clockwise out of the detent position. The radio’s display activates and if enabled through programming, a short alert signal sounds to indicate the radio is ready to use. Also depending upon radio programming, the radio powers-up with either the last selected group or the power-up group. 2. Select the desired/required P25 conventional radio system. Refer to Section 9.7 as necessary. The currently selected system is indicated in the top line of the display, and the   (P25) icon appears at the bottom of the display. 3. Select the desired group. Refer to Section 9.8 as necessary. The currently selected group is indicated in the middle line of the display. The radio is now ready to receive calls on the group. When the radio detects an incoming emergency group call, it sounds an alert tone and RXEMER displays. Voice or emergency transmissions are heard. 11.5.2 Declaring an Emergency on a Group 1. Set the radio to receive calls on the desired P25 conventional radio system and talk group per the previous section. 2. Press the red Emergency/Home button on the front of the radio. The radio then broadcasts a short emergency transmission and TXEMER displays. 3. To send a voice message, press the microphone’s PTT button and speak into the microphone. NOTE
14221-1510-2000, Rev. C   76 11.5.3 Clearing an Emergency Clear an emergency using one of the following methods: • Select another radio system; • Change channels (if not prohibited by radio programming); • Cycle radio power by turning the radio off and then back on; or, • If the radio is programmed with clear emergency privileges, simultaneously press the CLEAR button and the red Emergency/Home button. 11.6 STATUS OPERATIONS ON A P25 CONVENTIONAL SYSTEM The Status feature allows for the transmission of programmed statuses to the radio system. Different statuses can be programmed into the radio and selected one-at-a-time for transmission. Each status is assigned an ID number that is cross-referenced with the representative status condition established by radio system administration personnel. For example, a particular status ID number could be assign as meaning “Off Duty” throughout the radio system. Note that the same ID number could be programmed, for example, as “STATUS 1” in one radio but as “STATUS 5” in another radio. At dispatch consoles in the radio system, the Status feature is typically referred to as Request Status Message (RSM). One or more radio buttons may be programmed for status operation. For examples, the A button could be programmed to transmit an “In Route” status after it is pressed, the B button could be programmed to transmit an “At Scene” status after it is pressed, and the C button could be programmed to transmit a “Send EMT” status after it is pressed. To transmit a status, press the respective button to set the status for transmission. After a short delay, the status will be transmitted. Consult with radio system’s network administration personnel for programming information for a specific radio.   Transmission of the status set for transmission can be canceled before the timer expires by pressing the CLEAR button. This may be necessary if an incorrect status was selected. When the radio system receives a transmitted status, it sends an acknowledgement message back to the radio and the radio then sounds a high-pitched tone. If the radio system does not receive the status properly, the radio sounds a low-pitched tone upon receipt of the acknowledgement message from the radio system. 11.7  MESSAGE OPERATIONS ON A P25 CONVENTIONAL SYSTEM The Message feature allows for the transmission of programmed messages to the radio system. Up to ten (10) different messages can be programmed into the radio and selected one-at-a-time for transmission. Each message is assigned an ID number that is cross-referenced with the representative message condition established by radio system administration personnel. For example, a particular message ID number could be assign as meaning “Please Call” throughout the radio system. Note that the same ID number could be programmed, for example, as “MESSAGE 1” in one radio but as “MESSAGE 5” in another radio. At dispatch consoles in the radio system, the Message feature is typically referred to as Request-To-Talk (RTT), since it allows a dispatcher to quickly set-up an individual call back to the radio that transmitted a message. NOTE
 14221-1510-2000, Rev. C 77 One or more radio buttons may be programmed for message operation. For examples, the A button could be programmed to transmit a message corresponding to “I-Call ASAP” after it is pressed, and the B button could be programmed to transmit a message corresponding to “Run Plate” after it is pressed. To transmit a message, press the respective button to set the message for transmission. After a short delay, the message will be transmitted. Consult with radio system’s network administration personnel for programming information for a specific radio.   Transmission of the message set for transmission can be canceled before the timer expires by pressing the CLEAR button. This may be necessary if an incorrect message was selected. When the radio system receives a transmitted message, it sends an acknowledgement message back to the radio. The radio sounds a high-pitched tone upon receiving this acknowledgement message. If the radio system does not receive the message properly, the radio sounds a low-pitched tone upon receipt of the acknowledgement message from the radio system. NOTE

14221-1510-2000, Rev. C   80 12.2 ALERT TONES DURING ANALOG CONVENTIONAL OPERATIONS The radio provides audible alert tones (“beeps”) to indicate the various operating conditions. These alert tones can be enabled or disabled through programming. Table 12-2:  Alert Tones during Analog Conventional Operations  NAME TONE DESCRIPTION Call Originate 1 short mid- pitched tone Sounds after keying the radio (Push-To-Talk button is pressed). Indicates it is OK to begin speaking into the microphone. Carrier Control Timer 5 short high-pitched warning tones followed by a long low-pitched tone Sounds if the programmed time for continuous transmission is exceeded. The transmitter shuts down shortly after the alert, interrupting communications. Release and re-key the PTT button to maintain communications. This resets the carrier control timer and turns the transmitter back on. Key Press Alert 1 short tone Indicates a key has been pressed. A short low-pitched tone indicates no action was taken because the key is not active in the current mode. Signaling 1 mid-pitched tone Sounds just after keying or just after unkeying the radio (i.e., just after PTT button press or release). During the tone, the radio is transmitting data information via signaling, such as MDC-120 signaling. 12.3 RECEIVING A CALL ON AN ANALOG CONVENTIONAL SYSTEM Follow this basic procedure to receive a call: 1. If not already, turn the radio on by rotating its Power On/Off/Volume control clockwise out of the detent position. The radio’s display activates and if enabled through programming, a short alert signal sounds to indicate the radio is ready to use. 2. Select the desired analog conventional radio system. Refer to Section 9.7 as necessary. The currently selected system is indicated in the top line of the display, and the   (analog channel) icon appears at the bottom of the display. 3. Select the desired channel. Refer to Section 9.8  as necessary. The currently selected channel is indicated in the middle line of the display. The radio is now ready to receive calls on the channel. 4. When the radio receives a call (and the correct encoding is decoded, if programmed and enabled), it unmutes on the channel, the  (Busy) status icon displays, and the Tx/Busy indicator lights green to visually indicate the presence of the call on the channel. Optional: Press the CLEAR button to disabled squelch and monitor any calls on the channel (with or without signaling). 5. If necessary, make a volume adjustment by rotating the Power On/Off/Volume control. 12.4 TRANSMITTING A CALL ON AN ANALOG CONVENTIONAL SYSTEM Follow this basic procedure to receive a call: 1. Select the desired analog conventional radio system. Refer to Section 9.7 as necessary. The currently selected system is indicated in the top line of the display. 2. Select the desired channel. Refer to Section 9.8  as necessary. The currently selected channel is indicated in the middle line of the display. The radio is now ready to receive calls on the channel.
 14221-1510-2000, Rev. C 81 3. Verify the channel is not busy (i.e., no call currently exists on it) by observing for the lack of the (Busy) status icon in the display. If this icon is present in the display, do not proceed until it disappears.   For an analog convention channel, a channel’s busy/not busy status can also be checked by briefly depressing the radio’s CLEAR button. This disables squelch and any channel programmed decoding and unmutes the receiver. Therefore, any signals received on the channel can be heard in the speaker/headset.   If the Channel Busy Lockout feature is programmed for the selected channel, the radio will not transmit when the channel is busy 4. Press and hold the microphone’s PTT button. If the Call Originate (sometimes called Ready-To-Talk) alert tone is programmed, the radio will sound a short beep tone when it begins transmitting on the channel. 5. Hold the microphone approximately 2. inches from the mouth and speak into it in a normal voice. 6. When the transmission is complete, release the PTT button and listen for a reply. 7. Repeat transmissions as necessary. 12.5 SCANNING CHANNELS ON AN ANALOG CONVENTIONAL SYSTEM Channels which have been previously added to the scan list on a per radio system basis, can be scanned. The selected channel is scanned (if enabled through programming) whether or not it is in the scan list. Each conventional radio system’s channel scan list is retained in memory when the radio is turned off. The scan rate varies depending upon the number of channels in the scan list and whether or not the radio is programmed to scan for channels with decoding enabled. Fewer channels results in a faster scan rate. If programmed for dual-priority scan operation, the priority 1, priority 2, and the remaining scan list channels are scanned. Once a signal is detected and the correct encoded squelch signal is decoded (if programmed), the radio receives the message and displays the received scan channel. At the same time, scanning continues on the priority 1 and priority 2 channels. If a priority 1 or priority 2 channel carrier, regardless of encoded squelch decoding, is detected while a non-priority channel is being received, the display name is updated and the received channel is switched to the priority channel. Scanning of the priority 1 channel continues if a message is being received on the priority 2 channel. While receiving a call on a non-priority or a priority 2 channel, the radio periodically checks the priority 1 and 2 channels. If scan with Channel Guard is enabled, the radio uses Channel Guard to decide whether to unmute on a priority channel. The radio stops, on squelch detection, on a priority channel. In normal operation, the radio unmutes only on detecting the correct Channel Guard; otherwise, it remains muted until the priority channel call and hang time have ended. An optional feature allows the radio to continue scanning upon the detection of the wrong Channel Guard on a priority channel. The user can then select the rate at which this channel is scanned until the call ends. 12.5.1 Turning Scan On and Off Toggle scan operation on and off by selecting the SCAN function. Typically, this is performed by pressing the SCAN button, if so programmed. This  function may also be programmed to the radio’s conventional menu. When the radio is scanning channels (i.e., when scan is on), the   (Scan) icon rotates in the bottom line of the display and the radio scans the channels currently on the conventional scan list.  NOTENOTE
14221-1510-2000, Rev. C   82  Scanning stops when the radio is receiving or transmitting a call. Scanning also stops while  the  microphone is off-hook if the hookswitch function  is enabled via radio programming. When a channel on the scan list has an active call, the radio unmutes, the Tx/Busy indicator lights green, and the call is heard in the radio’s speaker/headset. The radio continues scanning if a new channel is selected when scan is on. If the radio is receiving a call on a non-selected channel when scan is turned off, it returns to the selected channel. Pressing the PTT button when scan is on causes the radio to transmit on the displayed channel or on the currently selected channel, depending on programming. When the radio is scanning, selecting the SCAN ADD function (if programmed) recalls the scanned channel that last received a call. This channel is recalled for a period equal to the scan hang-time. This function may be programmed to the radio’s conventional menu or to a radio button. When scan is turned off, the radio resumes operation on the selected channel. 12.5.2 Adding Channels to the Scan List Either the SCAN ADD function or the SCAN A/D (add/delete) function can be used to add a channel to the scan list and change its scan priority level. This procedure assumes the desired channel for adding to the scan list is programmed in the currently selected system but not currently on the scan list. Also, it is assumed the radio is not programmed with a fixed scan list. 1. Turn scan off, if it is not already off. This can be accomplished by pressing the button programmed with the SCAN function (typically the SCAN button) or, if programmed, by selecting this function on the menu. When scan is off, the   icon is not displayed. 2. Select the SCAN ADD function or the SCAN A/D function to add the currently selected channel to the scan list as a non-priority scan channel. Either function may be programmed to a radio button or on the menu. When set as a non-priority scan channel, the   icon (non-priority scan icon = 3 bars) appears at the bottom of the display. If neither function is programmed, it is not possible to add the channel to the scan list unless the radio is re-programmed.   If the radio displays FIXED LST, it is programmed with a fixed scan list and this list cannot be changed without radio re-programming. 3. If desired, select the same function again to set the channel as the Priority 2 scan channel. The   icon (Priority 2 scan icon = 2 bars) appears at the bottom of the display. 4. If desired, select the same function again to set the channel as the Priority 1 scan channel. The   icon (Priority 1 scan icon = 1 bar) appears at the bottom of the display.   If the radio displays FIXED P1, a channel has been programmed as the fixed Priority 1 channel. In this case, another channel cannot be set as the Priority 1 channel, and the fixed Priority 1 channel cannot be changed from the Priority 1 channel unless the radio is re-programmed. 5. Another channel can be added to the list by selecting the channel and then repeating from step 2. 6. If desired, turn scan on by selecting the SCAN function. NOTENOTENOTE
 14221-1510-2000, Rev. C 83 If the Priority 1 and Priority 2 channels were already set and a new channel is assigned as the Priority 1 or the Priority 2 scan channel, then the previously assigned channel changes to non-priority scanning. When using the SCAN ADD function, the priority level selection sequence advances the channel to the next higher priority level and stops at Priority 1. To select a lower priority level, the channel must be deleted from the scan list (using the SCAN DEL function or the SCAN A/D function) and then added back to the scan list. Each new channel added to the scan list starts at the non-priority level (i.e., the lowest level).  When using the SCAN A/D function, the priority level selection sequence wraps from Priority 1 to no scan. Since this function can both add and delete, it may be desired so other functions can be programmed to the limited number of radio buttons. 12.5.3 Deleting Channels from the Scan List Either the SCAN DEL (scan delete) function or the SCAN A/D (scan add/delete) function can be used to delete a channel from the scan list. The SCAN A/D function can also be used to change the channel’s scan priority level. This procedure assumes the desired channel for deleting from the scan list is programmed in the currently selected system and currently on the scan list. Also, it is assumed the radio is not programmed with a fixed scan list. 1. Turn scan off, if it is not already off. This can be accomplished by pressing the button programmed with the SCAN function (typically the SCAN button) or, if programmed, by selecting this function on the menu. When scan is off, the   icon is not displayed. 2. If programmed, select the SCAN DEL function once to delete/remove the channel from the scan list. The scan icon clears from the display when this function is selected. Alternately, select the SCAN A/D function one or more times until no scan icons (i.e., no bars) appear in the display. At this point, the channel is removed from the scan list. If neither function is programmed, it is not possible to delete the channel from the scan list unless the radio is re-programmed. 3. If desired, turn scan on by selecting the SCAN function. 12.5.4 Nuisance Delete If not the currently selected channel, a channel can be temporarily deleted from the scan list by selecting the SCAN DEL (Scan Delete) function when the radio is scanning and receiving a call on the unwanted channel. This action prevents calls from being received on the unselected channel, since the channel is temporarily removed from the scan list. Deletions performed in this manner do not remain deleted after the radio’s power is cycled. The Scan Delete function may be programmed to a radio button, or menu, or both. 12.6 SQUELCH ADJUSTMENT FOR AN ANALOG CONVENTIONAL SYSTEM In the conventional mode of operation, the radio’s receiver squelch setting can be adjusted via the menu (if programmed) or via a button that has been programmed with the Squelch function. The default squelch setting is nine (9). Any setting between one (1) and sixteen (16) can be selected if the Squelch function is available. Whenever a channel has an active call, the Tx/Busy indicator lights green.
14221-1510-2000, Rev. C   84  A setting of sixteen (16) requires a very strong signal to open squelch (i.e., to unmute the radio), a setting  of  approximately five  (5) requires a very weak signal to open squelch, and a setting of one (1) is open squelch. Numbers will vary from radio-to-radio and per existing radio frequency conditions.   When the squelch adjust function is activated, Channel Guard, T99 decode, and Scan are disabled. When the squelch adjust function is exited, Channel Guard, T99 decode, and Scan are restored to their previous states. 1. Press the MENU button to activate the menu function. Alternately, if another button such as one (1) of the three (3) preset buttons is programmed with the Squelch function, press this button and advance to step 3. 2. Press the + or – buttons to scroll through the menu until SQUELCH is selected with the > symbol, and then press the MENU button again. 3. SQLCH=xx, where xx is the current squelch setting appears in the second line of the display. The range is 1 to 16.  Press the + or – buttons to increase or decrease the current squelch setting as required. Higher settings require a stronger received signal to open squelch. 4. Press the MENU button again to save the new setting and return to a normal display. If the MENU button is not pressed after a short period, menu selection automatically exits and the new squelch setting is not saved. 12.7 TYPE 99 DECODING ON AN ANALOG CONVENTIONAL SYSTEM 12.7.1 General Information Type 99 is a form of selective signaling. Selective signaling controls the muting and unmuting of receiver audio via sequential tone signals sent over radio channels. Radio base stations, mobile radios or portable radios with Type 99 encode capability can selectively call individual radio units or groups of radio units in an analog conventional radio system. Type 99 is typically used in paging operations so a dispatcher can selectively call a radio or a group of radios. If the radio is programmed for Type 99 decoding and this decoding is on (enabled), the radio can decode individual, group, and supergroup Type 99 calls. To perform Type 99 decoding operations, Type 99 tone sequences must be programmed into the radio and at least one conventional channel must be programmed for Type 99 decode operations. When the radio decodes an appropriate Type 99 code sequence, the radio sounds an alert tone and it displays an  appropriate  indication. The receiver then operates with noise squelched until Type 99 decoding  is reset. Type 99 decoding  continues to operate during this noise squelched period. The appropriate Type 99 alert tone sounds again if it detects a valid tone sequence. Whenever a channel has an active call, the Tx/Busy indicator lights green. Type 99 operation can be manually or automatically reset (programmable). Manual reset is achieved by briefly pressing the CLEAR button (if it is programmed with the MON CLR function). Automatic reset, if programmed, occurs after a 30-second interval following the most recent decode of a Type 99 tone sequence. Type 99 decoding continues to be active while the CLEAR button is pressed (if it is programmed with the MON CLR function). This allows the user to monitor calls and still be alerted when a call is directed to the  radio.  While the CLEAR button is pressed, calls and all Type 99 tone signals are heard in the NOTENOTE
 14221-1510-2000, Rev. C 85 speaker/headset. If the CLEAR button is pressed for longer than two (2) seconds, Type 99 decoding is either turned off or back on (disabled or re-enabled) depending upon its present state. If an alert option is installed and enabled along with Type 99  decoding, the radio can be wired and programmed to activate a vehicle device such as a horn or light when a proper Type 99 call is received and decoded. This option permits alerting of persons outside of the vehicle via Type 99 signalling.   Type 99 decoding is automatically turned off (disabled) when the radio is scanning (i.e., when scan is on/enabled). 12.7.2 Turning Type 99 Decoding On and Off When Type 99 decoding is off, it is disabled and considered to be in the “monitor” state. When Type 99 decoding is on, it is enabled and considered to be in the “selective call” state. When on, the   (Type 99) icon appears at the bottom of the display. If the radio is programmed for Type 99 decoding operation, it is typically programmed so Type 99 decoding can be manually turned on and off. Refer to the following subsections for details. The radio can also be programmed so microphone hookswitch activation will turn Type 99 decoding on and off. If so, decoding turns off when the mic is off hook and on when the mic is on hook. In addition, the radio can also be programmed to automatically turn Type 99 decoding off for 30 seconds when the microphone’s PTT button is pressed. This allows subsequent call responses without valid tone sequences to be heard. As previously noted, Type 99 decoding automatically turns off when the radio is scanning. Radio programming allows each analog conventional channel to be programmed to support or to not support  Type 99 decoding  operations.  By default, if a channel is programmed to support Type 99 decoding, Type 99 decoding automatically turns on when the channel is selected. If the selected channel is not programmed for Type 99 decoding, the radio sounds a low-pitched tone if an attempt is made to manually turn it on. 12.7.2.1 With a Button If a radio button is programmed so Type 99 decoding can be manually turned on and off, first select a channel programmed to support Type 99 decoding and then press that button. If Type 99 decoding was off, it toggles on and T99 ON briefly displays in the top line of the display. If Type 99 decoding was on, it toggles off and T99 OFF briefly displays in the top line of the display. When Type 99 decoding is on, the   (Type 99) icon appears at the bottom of the display. 12.7.2.2 With the Menu If the T99 EN (Type   99 Enable) function is programmed on the conventional menu, turn Type 99 decoding on and off as follows: 1. Select the desired/required channel programmed to support Type 99 decoding. 2. Press the MENU button to activate the menu function. 3. Press the + or – buttons to scroll through the menu until T99 EN is selected with the > symbol. 4. Press the  MENU  button  to toggle the Type 99 decoding  state between on and off. If Type 99 decoding was off, it toggles on and T99 ON briefly displays in the top line of the display. If Type 99 NOTE
14221-1510-2000, Rev. C   86 decoding was on, it toggles off and T99 OFF briefly displays in the top line of the display. When on, the   (Type 99) icon appears at the bottom of the display. 12.7.3 Type 99 With or Without Channel Guard Selective signaling operates with or without Channel Guard. If Channel Guard is enabled, the radio can be programmed with an “And” or an “Or” option, determined by programming with the T99 Mute Control feature: • If the “And” option is programmed, T99 calls require the correct selective  signaling  (T99 tone sequence) and the correct Channel Guard tones before the radio will unsquelch. • If the “Or” option is programmed, a call with the correct Channel Guard tone or with the correct T99 tone sequence will unsquelch the radio. 12.7.4 Resetting Type 99 After a Decoded Call Type 99 operation can be manually or automatically reset (programmable). Manual reset is achieved by briefly pressing the CLEAR button (if it is programmed with the MON CLR function). Automatic reset, if programmed, occurs after a 30-second interval following the most recent decode of a Type 99 tone sequence. 12.7.5 Type 99 Disable After Radio PTT The radio may be programmed with the Type 99 Disable After PTT feature. This feature automatically disables the Type 99 decoder (i.e., turns Type 99 decoding off) after a radio transmission. 12.8 MDC-1200 SIGNALING ON AN ANALOG CONVENTIONAL SYSTEM The radio supports MDC-1200 signaling, including functions such as PTT ID and emergency. This feature can be enabled on a per-channel basis. Both MDC-1200 encode and MDC-1200 decode operations are supported. 12.8.1 Transmission (Encode) Along with voice audio, the radio can be programmed to transmit an MDC-1200-encoded identification (ID) number on the selected channel with each press/release of the microphone’s PTT button. This function is commonly referred to a “PTT ID.”  This allows a radio to be identified with a unique number throughout the radio system upon each transmission. Per radio programming, the ID number can be sent when the mic’s PTT button is pressed (i.e., before voice audio is transmitted), when the mic’s PTT button is released (i.e., after voice audio is transmitted), or at both PTT press and release. The radio can be programmed to sound either  a  long or a  short  tone  just prior to transmitting  an MDC-1200 signal. The long tone lasts approximately two seconds and the short tone lasts approximately one-quarter of a second. When the tone sounds, remain keyed (i.e., keep the mic’s PTT button depressed) but do not begin speaking into the mic. When the tone ends, begin speaking into the mic and then release the PTT button when speaking is done. Consult with radio system’s network administration personnel for programming information for a specific radio. The radio can also be programmed with a “system pre-time” of between approximately 0 and 6.5 seconds.  The programmed time specifies the time delay between when the mic’s PTT is initially pressed (and the radio begins transmitting) and when the MDC signaling is broadcast on the selected  channel. For example, if the radio’s programmed system pre-time is 3 seconds, MDC-1200 signaling is broadcast 3 seconds after keying the radio on a channel programmed for MDC-1200 operation. Consult with radio system’s network administration personnel for programming information for a specific radio.
 14221-1510-2000, Rev. C 87 12.8.2 Receive (Decode) The radio can be programmed to momentarily display MDC-1200 signaling information it receives. After decoding a received PTT ID number on the selected channel, the radio displays either the received ID number or the name corresponding to the transmitting radio. If the name for the  ID number is programmed into the radio, the name will be displayed when the ID number is received. Otherwise, the received ID number is displayed. Consult with radio system’s network administration personnel for programming information for a specific radio. The  period of time that the ID number/name remains displayed is programmable between 0 and 10 seconds. This is the “MDC hang time” setting. The default value is 7 seconds. If  programmed  at  0 seconds, no ID number/name is displayed when an ID number is received. Consult with radio system’s network administration personnel for programming information for a specific radio. 12.9 EMERGENCY CALLS ON AN ANALOG CONVENTIONAL SYSTEM 12.9.1  G-STAR Emergency Signaling If enabled, G-STAR emergency signaling can be transmitted when operating in the analog conventional mode. This G-STAR signaling transmits five (5) times with a delay between each transmission. To send an emergency call on the selected analog conventional radio system and channel (or on an optionally programmed analog conventional emergency system and channel), proceed as follows. It is assumed the radio is programmed for G-STAR emergency signaling. Press and hold the red Home/Emergency button for approximately one second. This time is programmable;  therefore,  it  could be longer or shorter.  Consult with the radio system’s network administration personnel for programming information for a specific radio. The radio turns on the Tx/Busy indicator lights red and it proceeds to transmit the programmed G-STAR emergency signaling sequence. G-STAR is programmed to transmit in one of the following methods:  Method 1:  G-STAR is transmitted on the selected channel. If the channel is changed the emergency signaling continues to be transmitted on the newly selected channel.  Method 2: Same as Method 1 except the radio locks on to the currently selected channel. Attempts to change the system or channel are disabled.  Method 3:  G-STAR is transmitted on a programmed analog conventional emergency radio system and channel regardless of the selected channel. In this case, the selected channel is available for voice transmission and the radio periodically changes to the programmed emergency radio system and channel to send the emergency signaling and then it changes back to the selected channel.  Method 4: Same as Method 3, except the radio locks on to the programmed emergency radio system and channel. Attempts to change the radio system or channel are disabled.  The emergency state can be cleared by turning the radio off and then back on. 12.9.2  5-Tone Emergency Signalling If 5-tone emergency signaling is defined for emergency declaration in place of G-STAR emergency signaling, a programmed tone sequence is transmitted instead of the G-STAR sequence. This emergency declaration functions as the G-STAR emergency in all other respects.
14221-1510-2000, Rev. C   88 12.9.3 Tone Encode Transmission In analog conventional mode, two keys can be defined to be tone encode triggers. If either one of the programmed tone encode triggers is pressed, a programmed tone sequence is transmitted on the current radio system and channel. See Section 12.9 if the Emergency/Home key is used. The Tx/Busy indicator lights red during the tone transmission and a beep sounds at the end of the transmission. If enabled, audible side tones are heard in the radio speaker/headset as well. If PTT is programmed as one of the triggers, the microphone becomes active for voice communication after the tone sequence is complete. Tone encode is transmitted with Channel Guard if one is defined, and tones are always transmitted in clear voice mode, even if the channel is set for digital or private. Digital or private voice transmission resumes normally after the tone transmission.
 14221-1510-2000, Rev. C 89 13 DIGITAL VOICE AND ENCRYPTED DIGITAL VOICE OPERATIONS The XG-25M mobile radio can support various voice modes as described in the following subsections. 13.1 CLEAR MODE Clear mode can be used in most radio systems. In clear mode, the radio transmits and receives only clear voice calls. Groups or channels programmed for clear operation cannot transmit or receive digital (unencrypted) or private (encrypted) calls.   Clear mode transmissions can easily be monitored by unauthorized persons. 13.2  ProVoice™ VOICE MODES When ProVoice is used, each system in the radio—trunked or conventional—is programmed for clear voice mode operation (analog), or digital voice mode operation (digitized voice, but not encrypted), or private voice mode operation (encrypted voice). The particular voice mode is programmed on a per-group basis within each trunked system and on a per-channel basis within each conventional system. A radio must be equipped with the ProVoice feature option before it can operate in ProVoice digital (voice) mode. A radio must be equipped with both the ProVoice feature option and an encrypt/decrypt feature option before it can operate in ProVoice private mode.  Table 13-1:  ProVoice Transmit/Receive Mode Compatibility GROUP/CHANNEL PROGRAMMING (TRANSMIT) CLEAR RECEIVE DIGITAL RECEIVE PRIVATE RECEIVE CLEAR Yes No No DIGITAL Yes Yes No PRIVATE Yes No Yes 13.3  ProVoice™ DIGITAL MODE ProVoice digital mode allows the radio to transmit and receive digitized voice calls. When the radio is in a ProVoice digital mode, the   (digital voice) icon appears at the bottom of the display. Digital calls provide improved weak signal performance and they cannot be easily monitored with a standard radio receiver (e.g., radio scanner). Groups and channels programmed for ProVoice digital operation transmit only digital calls. Private calls cannot be received or transmitted when the radio is in ProVoice digital mode because the radio does not use any encryption key. Encryption keys are sometimes referred to as cryptographic keys. CAUTION
14221-1510-2000, Rev. C   90 Message trunked group calls and individual calls are answered back in the mode they were received, assuming the call or hang-time is still active. Individual, phone, all call, and emergency calls are transmitted clear if digital mode is disabled or inoperative. Other answer/response cases include: • If receiving a clear voice (analog) message trunked call, the radio responds in clear voice (analog) mode during the hang-time on the working channel. • If receiving a clear voice (analog) individual call, the radio responds in clear voice (analog) mode during the hang time. • When using the Who Has Called (WHC) feature to respond to an individual call (after the hang time has expired), the call is transmitted in the mode defined by the system mode as programmed for the current system if the ID being called is not in the radio’s individual call list. If the ID is in the list, then the call is transmitted as defined by the individual call mode programmed in the list for that ID. DTMF overdial and hot keypad features for transmitting DTMF tones are not available while in ProVoice digital mode. 13.4 PRIVATE MODE Private mode can be employed in any radio system that can support encrypted voice operations. Encryption protects against unauthorized reception of radio communications. When the radio is in private mode, the   (encryption) icon appears at the bottom of the display.  The XG-25M mobile radio supports both the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) and the Data Encryption Standard.  DES encryption uses 56-bit keys, while AES uses 128, 192, or 256-bit keys. Since every additional bit doubles the number of keys that must be attempted for decoding, this makes AES significantly more robust than DES. Private mode sets the radio to transmit encrypted calls and to receive both clear and encrypted calls. The radio transmits private if the group/channel is programmed for private operation and forced operation is programmed. If the radio is programmed for auto-select, the radio transmits as follows: • If private mode is enabled, transmissions are always in private mode. • If private mode is disabled and a private call is received, the reply transmission is in private mode if the transmission is made during the scan hang-time. If the reply transmission occurs after the scan hang-time, the transmission is in clear mode. When operating on a group or channel programmed for private mode, all transmissions are private and the radio receives clear and private calls. If the selected group or channel is programmed for auto-select capability, the mode can be toggled between private and clear by selecting the PVT  function (programmed menu or button). Radios programmed for forced private operation do not allow a change of the transmit mode; therefore, this button has no effect. 13.4.1 Displaying the Number of the Currently Used Encryption Key The number of the encryption key currently in use can be displayed. This is either the number of the system encryption key (for special calls such as individual, phone, all, agency or fleet) or the number of the group/channel key (for group or conventional calls). Each number is a storage location number in the radio for the key, not the actual encryption key. 1. Press the MENU button to activate the menu function. The programmed menu functions appear in the display. The > symbol at the left of a menu function indicates the currently selected function. 2. Press the + or – buttons to scroll and select the DSP KEY function.
 14221-1510-2000, Rev. C 91 3. Press the MENU button again. 4. Press the + or – buttons to toggle between displaying the number of the system key or the number of the group/channel key.  Table 13-2:  Display Number of Current Encryption Key ENCRYPTION KEY DISPLAYED MESSAGE DISPLAYED System SYS KEY KEY = 1 Group/Channel GRP KEY or CHN KEY KEY = 2 or KEY = 2 13.4.2 Key Zero All  encryption  keys can be cleared  (i.e,  erased from the  radio’s memory) by depressing the CLEAR button and, with it held down, pressing the OPTION  button.  Hold both buttons depressed for approximately two (2) seconds. A series of warning beeps begins at the start of this two-second period and then it  switches to a solid tone after the keys have been cleared. When the encryption  keys are cleared, KEY ZERO displays. If the encryption key(s) are cleared, one or more keys must be transferred from the Key Loader into the radio before private communications can continue. Contact the network administration personnel for further information. 13.4.3 Receiving a Private (Encrypted) Call When receiving, the radio automatically switches between clear or private operation. If the transmission being received is an encrypted transmission, it is decrypted, the receiver unsquelches, and the call is heard in the speaker/headset. The selected group or channel must be programmed for private operation and the correct encryption key must be loaded into the radio for this to occur. 13.4.4 Transmitting a Private (Encrypted) Call 1. Select the desired group or channel. 2. If the   (encryption) icon is not present at the bottom of the display, place the radio in private mode by selecting the PVT function. This may be programmed to a menu or button. • If the last state of the radio was private mode, then private mode is enabled on power up. In addition, the private mode is enabled if forced operation has been programmed in the radio. • If a group or channel is not programmed for private mode operation, PVT DIS displays if an attempt is made to enable private transmit mode. In this case, it is not possible to operate on this group/channel in private mode. • If the radio is programmed for forced private transmit operation, FRCD PVT displays  if an attempt is made to disable private transmit mode. In this case, it is not possible to transmit on this group/channel in clear mode. • If the radio does not have the correct encryption key loaded, NO KEY # displays. In this case, the radio does not transmit. 3. Continue with standard transmission procedures. A private mode access tone is heard when the microphone’s PTT button is pressed.
14221-1510-2000, Rev. C   92 13.4.5 Scanned Group Calls Receiving a scanned group call is the same as receiving a selected group call. During the scan hang time, if the radio was programmed for auto-select, it transmits back in the same mode it received the call. For example, if a clear group is entered in the scan list, it only receives clear calls. If the same group was available in private and entered in the scan list, it can receive clear and private calls, provided auto-select was programmed in the radio. The user can select to transmit on the scanned or on the selected group. If a group is entered in the scan list more than once in different modes (clear, digital, private), only the first occurrence of the group is used. 13.5 ERROR MESSAGES If any of the following error messages are displayed, the radio was either programmed incorrectly or requires service:   DSP ERR ERR=xxxx   DSP ERR   DIGV ERR If the radio’s hardware circuit is not responding correctly at radio power-up, the following error message is displayed. In this case, the radio requires service:   HARDWARE ERR = 3X (Where 3X is a number between 30 and 38).
 14221-1510-2000, Rev. C 93 14 PROGRAMMABLE FUNCTIONS 14.1 PROGRAMMABLE BUTTONS All buttons on the front panel of the radio can be “remapped” (i.e., reprogrammed) to any primary function. Typically, only the A, B, C and/or OPTION buttons are remapped. The radio ships from the factory with default button function mapping.
