14221-1800-2000 7 1. REGULATORY AND SAFETY INFORMATION 1.1 SAFETY CONVENTIONS The following conventions are used throughout this manual to alert the user to general safety precautions that must be observed during all phases of operation, service, and repair of this product. Failure to comply with these precautions or with specific warning elsewhere in this manual 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. 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. 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 the equipment performance. The NOTE symbol calls attention to supplemental information, which may improve system performance or clarify a process or procedure. 1.2 SAFETY TRAINING INFORMATION The Harris XL-200P portable radio generates RF electromagnetic energy during transmit mode. This radio is designed for and classified as “Occupational Use Only,” meaning it must be used only during the course of employment by individuals aware of the hazards and the ways to minimize such hazards. This radio is NOT intended for use by the “General Population” in an uncontrolled environment. The XL-200P portable radio has been tested and complies with the FCC RF exposure limits for “Occupational Use Only.” In addition, this Harris radio complies with the following Standards and Guidelines with regard to RF energy and electromagnetic energy levels and evaluation of such levels for exposure to humans: • FCC OET Bulletin 65 Edition 97-01 Supplement C, Evaluating Compliance with FCC Guidelines for Human Exposure to Radio Frequency Electromagnetic Fields. • American National Standards Institute (C95.1 – 1992), IEEE Standard for Safety Levels with Respect to Human Exposure to Radio Frequency Electromagnetic Fields, 3 kHz to 300 GHz. • American National Standards Institute (C95.3 – 1992), IEEE Recommended Practice for the Measurement of Potentially Hazardous Electromagnetic Fields – RF and Microwave. • IC Standard RSS-102, Issue 4, 2010: Spectrum Management and Telecommunications Radio Standards Specification. Radiofrequency Exposure Compliance of Radiocommunication Apparatus (All Frequency Bands). WARNINGCAUTIONNOTEWARNING
14221-1800-2000 8 1.2.1 RF Exposure Guidelines To ensure that exposure to RF electromagnetic energy is within the FCC allowable limits for occupational use, always adhere to the following guidelines: • DO NOT operate the radio without a proper antenna attached, as this may damage the radio and may also cause the FCC RF exposure limits to be exceeded. A proper antenna is the antenna supplied with this radio by Harris or an antenna specifically authorized by Harris for use with this radio. (Refer to Table 3-1.) • DO NOT transmit for more than 50% of total radio use time (“50% duty cycle”). Transmitting more than 50% of the time can cause FCC RF exposure compliance requirements to be exceeded. The radio is transmitting when the “TX” indicator appears in the display. The radio will transmit by pressing the “PTT” (Push-To-Talk) button. • ALWAYS transmit using low power when possible. In addition to conserving battery charge, low power can reduce RF exposure. • ALWAYS use Harris authorized accessories (antennas, batteries, belt clips, speaker/mics, etc). Use of unauthorized accessories may cause the FCC Occupational/Controlled Exposure RF compliance requirements to be exceeded. (Refer to Table 1-1.) • As noted in Table 1-1, ALWAYS keep the housing of the transmitter AT LEAST 0.47 inches (1.2 cm) from the body and at least 0.98 in (2.5 cm) from the face when transmitting to ensure FCC RF exposure compliance requirements are not exceeded. However, to provide the best sound quality to the recipients of your transmission, Harris recommends you hold the microphone at least 2 in (5 cm) from mouth, and slightly off to one side. Table 1-1: RF Exposure Compliance Testing Distances RADIO FREQUENCY TESTED DISTANCES (worst case scenario) Body1 Face VHF (136 - 174 MHz) 0.47 in (1.2 cm) 0.98 in (2.5 cm) UHF (378 - 522 MHz) 0.47 in (1.2 cm) 0.98 in (2.5 cm) 700/800 MHz (768 - 776 MHz) (798 - 806 MHz) (806 - 816 MHz) (851 - 861 MHz) 0.47 in (1.2 cm) 0.98 in (2.5 cm) 2400 MHz (2412 - 2472 MHz) 0.47 in (1.2 cm) 0.98 in (2.5 cm) 5 GHz (5.18 - 5.825 GHz) 0.47 in (1.2 cm) 0.98 in (2.5 cm) 1 This is worst case based on the thinnest body mount accessory (belt clip). CAUTION
14221-1800-2000 9 The information in this section provides the information needed to make the user aware of RF exposure, and what to do to assure that this radio operates within the FCC RF exposure limits. 1.2.2 Electromagnetic Interference/Compatibility During transmissions, this Harris radio generates RF energy that can possibly cause interference with other devices or systems. To avoid such interference, turn off the radio in areas where signs are posted to do so. DO NOT operate the transmitter in areas that are sensitive to electromagnetic radiation such as hospitals, aircraft, and blasting sites. 1.3 REGULATORY APPROVALS 1.3.1 Part 15 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. 1.3.2 Industry Canada This device complies with Industry Canada license-exempt RSS standard(s). Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference, including interference that may cause undesired operation of the device. 1.4 OPERATING TIPS Antenna location and condition are important when operating a portable radio. Operating the radio in low lying areas or terrain, under power lines or bridges, inside of a vehicle, or in a metal framed building can severely reduce the range of the unit. Mountains can also reduce the range of the unit. In areas where transmission or reception is poor, some improvement may be obtained by ensuring that the antenna is vertical. Moving a few yards in another direction or moving to a higher elevation may also improve communications. Vehicular operation can be aided with the use of an externally mounted antenna. Battery condition is another important factor in the trouble free operation of a portable radio. Always properly charge the battery. 1.4.1 Efficient Radio Operation Keep the antenna in a vertical position when receiving or transmitting a message. Do NOT hold onto the antenna when the radio is powered on! WARNING
14221-1800-2000 10 1.4.1.1 Antenna Care and Replacement Do not use the portable radio with a damaged or missing antenna. A minor burn may result if a damaged antenna comes into contact with the skin. Replace a damaged antenna immediately. Operating a portable radio with the antenna missing could cause personal injury, damage the radio, and may violate FCC regulations. Use only the supplied or approved antenna. Unauthorized antennas, modifications, or attachments could cause damage to the radio unit and may violate FCC regulations. (Refer to Table 3-1.) 1.4.1.2 Electronic Devices RF energy from portable radios may affect some electronic equipment. Most modern electronic equipment in cars, hospitals, homes, etc. is shielded from RF energy. However, in areas in which you are instructed to turn off two-way radio equipment, always observe the rules. If in doubt, turn it off! 1.4.1.3 Aircraft • Always turn off a portable radio before boarding any aircraft! • Use it on the ground only with crew permission. • DO NOT use while in-flight!! 1.4.1.4 Electric Blasting Caps To prevent accidental detonation of electric blasting caps, DO NOT use two-way radios within 1000 feet of blasting operations. Always obey the "Turn Off Two-Way Radios" signs posted where electric blasting caps are being used. (OSHA Standard: 1926.900) 1.4.1.5 Potentially Explosive Atmospheres Areas with potentially explosive atmospheres are often, but not always, clearly marked. These may be fuelling areas, such as gas stations, fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities, and areas where the air contains chemicals or particles, such as grain, dust, or metal powders. Sparks in such areas could cause an explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or even death. Turn off two-way radios when in any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere. It is rare, but not impossible that a radio or its accessories could generate sparks. WARNINGCAUTIONCAUTIONWARNINGWARNINGWARNING

14221-1800-2000 13 Dans cette section figurent les renseignements nécessaires pour sensibiliser l’utilisateur à l’exposition aux RF et sur ce qu’il faut faire pour s’assurer que cette radio fonctionne dans les limites d’exposition aux RF de la FCC. 2.2.2 Interférence/Compatibilité Électromagnétique Pendant les transmissions, cette radio Harris produit de l’énergie des RF qui peut causer de l’interférence avec d’autres appareils ou systèmes. Pour éviter de telles interférences, fermez la radio dans les zones où il est indiqué de le faire. N’utilisez PAS le transmetteur dans des zones sensibles aux radiations électromagnétiques, comme les hôpitaux, les avions et les sites de détonation. 2.3 INTERFÉRENCE DES RADIOFRÉQUENCES 2.3.1 Partie 15 de la FCC Cet appareil est conforme à la Partie 15 de la réglementation de la FCC. Le fonctionnement est soumis aux deux conditions suivantes : 1. Cet appareil ne doit pas causer une interférence nuisible; et 2. Cet appareil doit accepter toute interférence reçue, y compris une interférence qui peut causer un fonctionnement non souhaité. 2.3.2 Industrie Canada Le présent appareil est conforme aux CNR d'Industrie Canada applicables aux appareils radio exempts de licence. L'exploitation est autorisée aux deux conditions suivantes : (1) l'appareil ne doit pas produire de brouillage, et (2) l'utilisateur de l'appareil doit accepter tout brouillage radioélectrique subi, même si le brouillage est susceptible d'en compromettre le fonctionnement. 2.4 CONSEILS D’UTILISATION L’emplacement et l’état de l’antenne sont importants pour l’utilisation d’une radio portative. L’utilisation de la radio dans des zones de faible élévation, sous des lignes électriques ou des ponts, à l’intérieur d’un véhicule ou dans un immeuble à ossature métallique, peut réduire la portée de l’appareil de manière considérable. Les montagnes peuvent également réduire la portée de l’unité. Dans les zones où la transmission ou la réception est insatisfaisante, certaines améliorations peuvent être obtenues en s’assurant que l’antenne est verticale. Se déplacer de quelques mètres dans une autre direction ou à un emplacement plus élevé peut également améliorer les communications. L’utilisation d’une antenne fixée à l’extérieur peut faciliter le fonctionnement dans un véhicule. L’état de la pile est un autre facteur important d’une utilisation sans tracas d’une radio portative. Chargez toujours correctement la pile. 2.4.1 Utilisation Efficace de la Radio Gardez l’antenne dans une position verticale pendant la réception ou la transmission d’un message. MISE EN GARDE Ne tenez PAS l’antenne lorsque la radio est allumée!
14221-1800-2000 14 2.4.1.1 Entretien Et Remplacement De L’antenne MISE EN GARDE N’utilisez pas la radio portative si son antenne est endommagée ou absente. Une brûlure légère peut se produire au contact d’une antenne endommagée avec la peau. Remplacez immédiatement une antenne endommagée. L’utilisation d’une radio portative alors que l’antenne est absente peut causer des blessures, endommager la radio et pourrait enfreindre la réglementation de la FCC. AVERTISSEMENT Utilisez seulement l’antenne fournie ou une antenne approuvée. Des antennes non autorisées, des modifications ou des ajouts à une antenne peuvent endommager la radio et enfreindre la réglementation de la FCC. (Reportez-vous à Table 3-1.) 2.4.1.2 Appareils Électroniques AVERTISSEMENT L’énergie des RF provenant de radios portatives peut affecter certains appareils électroniques. La majorité de l’équipement électronique moderne dans les voitures, les hôpitaux, les maisons, etc. est blindé contre l’énergie des RF. Cependant, dans les zones où l’on vous demande de fermer l’équipement de radio bidirectionnelle, respectez toujours les règles. En cas de doute, éteignez-le! 2.4.1.3 Avion MISE EN GARDE • Éteignez toujours une radio portative avant d’embarquer à bord d’un avion! • Ne l’utilisez au sol qu’avec la permission de l’équipage. • NE l’utilisez PAS durant le vol! 2.4.1.4 Détonateurs Électriques MISE EN GARDE Pour prévenir la détonation accidentelle des détonateurs électriques, n’utilisez PAS de radios bidirectionnelles à moins de 305 m (1 000 pi) des opérations de détonation. Respectez toujours les indications « Éteindre les radios bidirectionnelles » situées là où des détonateurs électriques sont utilisés. (Norme OSHA : 1926.900)
14221-1800-2000 15 2.4.1.5 Atmosphère Potentiellement Explosive MISE EN GARDE Les zones ayant une atmosphère potentiellement explosive sont souvent, mais pas toujours, identifiées clairement comme telles. Il peut s’agir de zones d’alimentation en carburant, comme les postes d’essence, les installations de stockage ou de transfert de carburant ou de produits chimiques, ainsi que les zones dont l’air contient des produits chimiques ou des particules, comme des grains, de la poussière ou des poudres métalliques. Des étincelles dans de telles zones peuvent provoquer une explosion ou un incendie, causant ainsi des blessures ou même la mort. Éteignez les radios bidirectionnelles dans toute zone ayant une atmosphère potentiellement explosive. Il est rare, mais pas impossible qu’une radio ou ses accessoires produisent des étincelles.

For example, a Trunking system defines the parameters needed to communicate on a particular infrastructure by agency or geographical region, such as WACN, System ID, Talkgroups, etc. A conventional system defines the channel set used and any specific signaling attributes (See RPM2 for more information on System attributes). Systems are designated by the XX icon in the Zone/System menu. A Zone is an OPTIONAL container that can hold channels or talkgroups from a variety of systems (see Section 5.3.2). In other words, each member of a Zone belongs to an underlying system. (See RPM2 for more information on Zone attributes). Zones are always listed first in the Zone/System menu and are designated by the icon. A button on the radio can be programmed to scroll through available zones/systems (see Section 6.4). Or Select a zone/system via the menu: 1. Press the Menu/Select button to access the menus. 2. Use  or  to display the ZONE menu. A personality can have up to 512 systems and up to 50 Zones, independent of banks or channels. 3. Use  or  to highlight the zone. 4. Press the VIEW ZONE soft key to view channels in the zone/system. 5. OR Select the desired zone/system using the Menu/Select button.
14221-1800-2000 33 4.11 SELECT GROUP/CHANNEL AND BANK The XL-200P can be programmed with 1,250 talkgroups or 1000 channels per personality. Use the Group/Channel knob to select groups/channels 1 - 16. Use the A/B/C/D switch to set the bank. The selected bank is indicated on the display. • Bank A: Channel A1 - A16 (1-16) • Bank B: Channel B1 - B16 (17-32) • Bank C: Channel C1 - C16 (33-48) • Bank D: Channel D1 - D16 (49-64) If your system has more than 64 groups/channels, a button on the radio can be programmed for the SEL CHAN/GRP option. This allows you to select a “super bank,” providing access to groups/channels beyond the first 64. Note that ZONES have a limit of 64 entries per zone and cannot be “superbanked.” 4.12 LOCK/UNLOCK KEYPAD There are two levels of keypad lock available. Keypad lock and Radio lock.

See Section 6.4.1. 4.16 NOISE CANCELLATION The XL-200P features Harris’ proprietary noise suppression capability to provide clear and crisp voice quality in high-noise environments. This can be used in any mode, including analog and digital communications. The XL-200P has three microphones; two located at the top of the radio (primary) and one on the bottom (secondary). When noise cancellation is enabled, voice is picked up by the upper left microphone, and noise is picked up from the bottom microphone. In the case where noise cancellation is enabled and a speaker microphone is attached to the XL-200P, talk into the speaker microphone. In this mode, XL-200P top left microphone is used to pick up the surrounding noise, and the other microphones are unused. See Section 4.16.4 for more information. If the bottom (secondary) microphone is blocked, the XL-200P operates as though noise cancellation is turned off. 4.16.1 Enable Noise Cancellation To enable Noise Cancellation: 1. Press the Menu/Select button to access the menu. 2. Press  or  until the UTILITY menu is displayed. 3. Press  or  to highlight AUDIO SETTINGS and press the Menu/Select button. 4. Press  or  to highlight NOISE CANCELLATION. Toggle Noise Cancellation ENABLED/DISABLED using the Menu/Select button. Refer to Section 5.5 for more information on the Audio Settings menu. NOTE
14221-1800-2000 37 4.16.2 Using Noise Cancellation When using the noise cancellation feature, observe the following: • Verify NOISE CANCELLATION is enabled (see Section 4.16.1). • Ensure the primary and secondary microphones are not covered. See Section 4.16.4 for more information on the primary and secondary microphones. • Talk within two (2) inches of the primary microphones (see Figure 4-5). • Speak clearly, loudly, and with authority. • If possible, face the noise source when talking into the radio (see Figure 4-5). • In very noisy environments, it is o.k. to yell into the radio. The radio can handle loud input levels. Figure 4-5: Using Noise Cancellation 4.16.3 The Effect of Distance from the Microphone Unlike a normal microphone system, noise cancellation makes the level of your voice diminish quickly as you move away from the radio. In essence, the radio starts to see your voice as surrounding noise. Whereas, you may be comfortable speaking up to a foot away under normal operation, noise cancellation requires that you hold the radio close. 4.16.4 Primary versus Secondary Microphone 4.16.4.1 Without a Speaker Microphone Attached The primary microphones are located on top of the radio and the secondary is on the bottom of the radio (refer to Figure 4-1 for microphone locations). 4.16.4.2 With a Speaker Microphone Attached When a speaker microphone is attached, the radio electronically switches over to use the radio’s top left microphone as secondary. The microphone on the attached speaker microphone becomes primary. 4.16.5 When using an SCBA Mask When using an SCBA mask, the primary microphone can be held directly against the voice port. If the SCBA has a voice amplifier, the same rule applies. Ensure that the secondary microphone is uncovered. If possible, point the secondary microphone toward the noise source.
14221-1800-2000 38 4.17 PTT OPTIONS The radio can be programmed via RPM2 with one of the following PTT options: • Radio and Accessory – In this mode, when the radio is PTT’d the audio source will correspond with the PTT source.  If the source of PTT is radio, the audio is routed via the radio microphone.  If the source of PTT is an external microphone accessory, the audio is routed via the external microphone accessory. • Accessory Only - Any PTT input will have the audio routed through the external microphone accessory. The Bluetooth Speaker Mic is unaffected by this setting. PTTing the Bluetooth Speaker Mic always results in audio being routed via the Bluetooth Speaker Mic. 4.18 VOICE ANNUNCIATION When enabled via programming, Voice Annunciation provides audible feedback for various radio operations. The radio can be programmed to play an audio message for any or all of the following. This message can be a pre-recorded (canned) message or a user-recorded message. • Zone changes • Channel changes • System changes • Encryption On/Off • Noise Cancellation On/Off • Scan On/Off • Talkaround On/Off • Monitor Mode On/Off • 2 or 4 Position switch change For more information on configuring the radio for Voice Annunciation, refer to the Voice Annunciation Feature manual 14221-7200-6110. NOTE

Or A button or switch can be programmed to toggle talkaround enable/disabled. See Section 6.4 for the various options that can be programmed to the radio buttons and switches. If the Talk-Around Indication feature is enabled in RPM2, the radio will play a unique grant tone when a call is placed on a simplex channel or when Talk-Around has been enabled on a duplex channel. This feature applies to both Analog and P25 Conventional systems. It optionally allows the radio to also play the same tone when it receives a call while operating in simplex or Talk-Around. If configured, the radio plays the tone at the selected volume level. The tone will not play on systems configured with MDC. Talk-Around Indication can be specified for each individual Analog and P25 Conventional system configured in personality. The following options can be selected, and apply only when the radio is on a simplex channel or when Talk-Around has been enabled by the user: • Disabled: (This is the default option.) When this option is selected, the radio plays the standard grant tone when a call is placed. The radio does not play a tone when a call is received. • Transmit Only: When this option is selected, the radio plays a different “Talk-Around” grant tone when a call is placed. The radio does not play a tone when a call is received. • Transmit & Receive: When this option is selected, the radio plays a different “Talk-Around” grant tone when a call is placed, and at the beginning of a received call. NOTE
14221-1800-2000 42 In the radio personality, the “Alert Tone” parameter needs to be enabled for each channel on the Conventional Frequency Set. The “Ready To Talk Tone” parameter must also be enabled for the Talk Around Indication tone to be played when the radio is keyed. 4.23 TYPE 99 OPERATION Type 99 is Harris' name for in-band, two-tone sequential signaling. It is a conventional signaling protocol used to control the muting and unmuting of a radio. This signaling is commonly used for selective calling of individual units or groups of units in a conventional system. In Type 99 tone systems, calls are not heard until the radio detects the proper two-tone sequence. This, in conjunction with squelch, prevents the user from hearing noise or undesired conversations. When the radio detects the second tone, it sounds the appropriate Type 99 alert tone. After the second tone stops, the receiver audio path is opened in order for the user to receive messages. 4.23.1 Enable/Disable Type 99 1. Press Menu/Select button to access the main menu. 2. Press  or  to display the CALL menu. 3. Press  or  to highlight T99 TOGGLE. 4. Press the Menu/Select button to change T99 TOGGLE between ENABLED and DISABLED.

Once the user presses the PTT button, the radio display and audio returns to normal. 4.32 MDC-1200 (ANALOG CONVENTIONAL ONLY) MDC-1200 is a legacy in-band signaling protocol that provides the radio with the ability to transmit and receive a unique PTT ID. This PTT ID can be decoded by receiving radios and displayed as a hexadecimal number or an alias string. In addition, MDC-1200 provides radios with the ability to transmit emergency status to a console. Refer to the MDC-1200 Feature Manual, 14221-7200-6000, for complete instructions on configuring and using this feature. 4.32.1 Normal PTT Operation If MDC signaling on PTT press is enabled in RPM2, the radio transmits an MDC PTT ID message when PTT is pressed. If the Sidetone option is enabled in RPM2, the radio plays a Ready-to-Talk (RTT) tone after the MDC pre-signaling has been transmitted. If MDC signaling on PTT release is enabled (in RPM2), the radio transmits post-call MDC signaling when PTT is released. • IF STE is enabled (in RPM2), the MDC post-call signaling is transmitted after STE is sent on PTT release only. • MDC post-call signaling is also sent when there is a radio unkey due to Carrier Control Timeout (CCT). Normal CCT alert tones occur prior to unkey. 4.32.2 MDC PTT ID Receive Handling When the radio receives an MDC PTT ID, it searches the MDC ID Alias List for an alias associated with the ID. If one is found, it displays the alias. If none is found, the radio displays the ID in hexadecimal.
14221-1800-2000 49 4.32.3 Emergency Declaration Emergency declaration is accomplished by the radio generating an MDC Emergency PTT message. An Emergency is considered acknowledged when the radio receives an “Ack To Emergency” PTT message with an ID which matches its own ID. If Emergency Audio is enabled and the PTT Sidetone option is enabled, the radio plays the Ready-to-Talk tone after the MDC Emergency PTT signaling is transmitted. • If an MDC Alert on ACK is enabled, the radio plays an ACK tone when the MDC emergency is acknowledged. • If audio tones are enabled, the radio plays an ACK tone if the emergency is not acknowledged within the programmed number of retries.

Press the Menu/Select button to access the main menu. 2. Press  or  to display the SCAN menu. 3. Press  or  to highlight SCAN LISTS and press the Menu/Select button. Refer to the following sections. When using Preemptive Priority Scan, the frequencies in the list need to be unique. 5.14.1 Default, Priority 1, and Priority 2 Channels 5.14.1.1 Default Channel This is the currently selected channel and is the channel you transmit on by default when you press PTT while the radio is actively scanning and is not responding to a just received call. Responding to a call the radio just received while scanning is called hang time. If hang time is set to 0 in RPM2, the radio always transmits on the default channel in scan. 5.14.1.2 Priority 1 Channel This channel will be scanned more often than other channels in the list and will be scanned in between every other channel in the scan list. An example scan sequence would be P1 (priority 1), C2, P1, C3, P1, C4, etc. In addition, the priority channel will be scanned even while actively receiving on a non-priority channel. For example, if the radio is actively receiving on C3 and activity is detected on P1, the radio will drop C3 and switch to P1. NOTE
14221-1800-2000 61 5.14.1.3 Priority 2 Channel This channel will also be scanned more often than others. An example scan sequence would be P1, C2, P1, C3, P1, C4, P2, C5, P1, C6, P1, C7, P1, C8, P2, C9 etc. In addition, this channel will be scanned even while actively receiving on a non-priority channel. For example, if the radio is actively receiving on C3 and activity is detected on P2, the radio will drop C3 and switch to P2. Additionally, activity on P1 can also preempt P2, but P2 cannot preempt P1. 5.14.2 Trunked/Conventional Scanning Trunked/conventional scanning adds the ability to scan multiple conventional and P25 conventional channels while still maintaining P25 trunked radio operation. In essence, the radio is able to scan a conventional scan list while still receiving a P25 trunked control channel and receiving P25 trunked calls. Selection of which conventional scan list is associated with a given trunked system is done in RPM2 and cannot be changed on the radio. However, a user with access to the necessary menu layout (see Section 4.8) is allowed to edit the scan list members (both trunked groups and conventional channels on the selected Conventional Priority System). As the number of conventional channels being scanned increases, the time between scanning each channel increases (roughly 250 milliseconds per channel), with the consequent increase in the number of calls that will late-enter. In order to avoid missing calls, it is recommended to keep the number of conventional channels being scanned to eight (8) or fewer. The trunking site must have roaming set to Enhanced CC. 5.14.3 Vote Scan (Analog and P25 Conventional Only) If vote scan is enabled via RPM2, the radio automatically selects the strongest signal ensuring that the best audio quality is delivered to the user. If vote scan is enabled, the radio is always scanning. You cannot stop scanning, start normal scanning, or monitor the channel. The scanning icon on the idle screen indicates that the radio is vote scanning versus, regular scanning. Figure 5-2: Vote Scan Enabled If Talkaround is enabled, Vote Scan is disabled until Talkaround is disabled again. NOTENOTE

Select REMOVE PRI to remove priority. 5.14.6 Custom Scan Lists The Mixed Zone Scan (MZS) feature gives the user the capability to scan based on a custom scan list that is assigned at the system level. The Custom Scan (CS) list can contain System and Channel/Group configurations across P25 Trunked, P25 Conventional, and Analog Systems. When a Custom Scan List is assigned to a P25T system, the radio can scan P25T, P25C and Analog systems. When assigned to a P25C or Analog system, the radio only scans conventional channels. MZS also gives the user the capability to scan beyond the selected system group set. • P25T Scan When a custom scan list is assigned to a P25T system, the user has the ability to scan P25T, P25C, and Analog groups/channels. All P25T systems must have the same WACN, System ID, and Unit ID to be added to the custom scan list. If P25C and/or analog channels are added to the custom scan list, the radio will scan them using the Trunked/Conventional scan feature described in section 5.14.2, and will override any other conventional scan list that may have been programmed in RPM2. • P25C and Analog Scan When a custom scan lists is assigned to a P25C or Analog System, the user has the ability to scan P25C and Analog channels. P25T systems are ignored. Custom scan list can be created in RPM or on the fly at the radio. The radio supports up to 10 Custom Scan lists, with up to 100 channels/groups in each. 5.14.6.1 Create Custom Scan List To create a custom scan list at the radio: 1. Press the Menu/Select button. 2.

Programming can also be accomplished by creating a plan using a computer with RPM2 installed. 6.1 PROGRAMMING VIA RPM2 Radio Personality Manager (RPM2) is used for the bulk of programming the XL-200P. With RPM2, you can fully program the XL-200P using cable 12082-0410-A1. Removing power during radio programming, or programming the radio with low battery power could corrupt installation of firmware. Ensure that the radio is turned off before connecting the programming cable. After the cable is connected, then power on the radio. 6.2 EDIT CHANNEL (ANALOG AND P25 CONVENTIONAL ONLY) Channels can be edited from the Channel Information (CH INFO) menu display. Most of the displayed channel parameters can be modified here. Channel edits persist across a power cycle. Loading a personality clears any channel edits. Available parameters vary depending on whether the channel is a P25 or analog channel. 1. From the main display, press  to access the CH INFO screen. 2. Press  or  to scroll through the programmed channel settings. 3. Press the EDIT soft key. Only authorized users should attempt channel editing. 4. Enter the password programmed via RPM2. You do not have to re-enter the password until you power cycle the radio. 5. Press the ENTER soft key. 6. Highlight and select the parameter to edit. For P25 channels, modify remaining channel settings: • CHANNEL NAME - Channel name. Up to 16 alphanumeric characters are allowed. • RX FREQUENCY - Receive frequency. Note that if the new frequency is invalid, the display reverts to the old frequency (Table 6-1). • TX FREQUENCY - Transmit frequency. • TX POWER – Transmit power. Toggle between LOW and HIGH.

RPM2 creates, modifies and stores personality information while ProFile Manager delivers the personality over the network to the desired radios. ProFile Manager also contains the ability to read personality information over-the-air and save the files, so that RPM2 can modify the information if necessary. You can interrupt the programming process, if necessary, by depressing the Push-to-Talk (PTT) button or declaring an emergency. Once a radio personality update is successfully completed, the radio automatically resets itself, switches to the new personality, and returns to normal operation. For more information on using ProFile Manager, refer to software release notes AE/LZT 123 3263/1. 6.4 PROGRAMMABLE BUTTONS AND SWITCHES 6.4.1 Programmable Buttons Press  while on the main display to view the functions assigned to the programmable buttons.

14221-1800-2000 77 6.4.3.2 Indexed Features These features can be assigned to any number of positions as long as each index value selected for it is unique across multiple assignments of the same feature; for example, you cannot assign a Zone with a particular index (e.g., “ZONE A”) to both positions A and B. Table 6-5: Indexed Features FUNCTION DESCRIPTION Zone Selection Sets to the Zone index value. • When setting the A/B/C/D switch to an indexed zone assigned position, the radio sets, but does not “hold,” that zone. This has the resulting effects:  This sets the channel knob to be zone-based system/channel selection just like selecting a zone from the main “Zone” menu or ramping up/down using the side user-programmable buttons.  If a user then changes to a different system or zone via another method (menu, button, etc.), it will override the Zone selection switch setting accordingly and not require it to remain in the zone where the switch assignment is set. • When changing away from a Zone assigned position, no actions/changes will be taken by the radio. System Selection Sets to the System index value. • When setting the A/B/C/D switch to an indexed System assigned position, the radio sets, but does not “hold,” that System. This has the resulting effects:  This sets the channel knob to be system-based channel selection, just like selecting a system from the main “Zone” menu or ramping up/down using the side user-programmable buttons.  If a user then changes to a different system or zone via another method (menu, button, etc.), it will override the System selection switch setting accordingly and not require it to remain in the system where the switch assignment is set. • When changing away from a System assigned position, no actions/changes will be taken by the radio. 6.5 PROGRAMMABLE ICONS 6.5.1 Top display The top display has space for up to seven configurable icons, which can be programmed to display any of the following: • Blank • Signal Strength • Battery Status • Bluetooth enabled • Encryption enabled • Scan/Vote Scan enabled • Talkaround enabled • Emergency mode active The radio can be programmed to change the color of the top display backlight relative to the currently selected channel/group.

Radios manufactured after the above date will comply with these restrictions. Existing radio personalities that contain frequencies that violate the new FCC rules will cause an invalid channel error indication on the radio display. The user will need to change the radio personality to comply with the new rules. Note that there are multiple exceptions to the narrowbanding mandate, including the Marine Frequencies listed in Section 7.1.

14221-1800-2000 92 APPENDIX A WI-FI PROGRAMMING These instructions assume the user has a basic familiarity with Wi-Fi Networks, their configuration, and how to connect devices. If you are unfamiliar with the terms and/or procedures mentioned in these instructions, please contact your IT department for help before attempting to configure Wi-Fi programming. A.1 NETWORK CONFIGURATION • In order to program the XL-200P over Wi-Fi, you need to have a wireless network available. This wireless network will be used by RPM2 and the radio for Wi-Fi functionality. RPM2 and the XL-200P come with a default Wi-Fi configuration, but they can be customized to match an existing Wi-Fi configuration. • For default operation, setup a wireless network (access point) as follows:  SSID (or networking name) is set to the radio default of “harrisradios”  Password of “password”  Encryption type of either WPA or WPA2 A.2 RADIO/RPM CONFIGURATION For default operation using the network as described in Section A.1, no special configuration of the radio or RPM is required. A.3 PC CONFIGURATION Configure the PC to connect to the same Wireless network as the radio. For Windows 7, this can be done through the Network and Sharing Center. A.4 CONNECTION 1. For default operation, power on radio while pressing and holding the bottom side and PTT buttons. This places the radio into Wi-Fi programming mode. A screen appears on the front panel indicating the radio is in Wi-Fi programming mode. 2. Start RPM2. NOTE
14221-1800-2000 93 3. Select the Connection tab (the one with the radio icon) and click the Wi-Fi connection button as shown below. You should see any radios that are in Wi-Fi mode appear. A.5 PERSONAL/CUSTOM NETWORK CONFIGURATION 1. In order to use a wireless network with parameters that are different from the default configuration above, some configuration of RPM2 and the radio is required. In RPM2, create a new personality or open a personality previously created for the radio that you wish to program over Wi-Fi. 2. Navigate to the Network Configuration screen as shown in Figure 11-1. The default parameters as noted in Section A.4 should be shown. Figure 11-1: RPM2 Network Configuration Screen Radios should start to appear in this area once RPM2 and the radio(s) are on the same network. Make sure this button is selected to get into Wi-Fi discovery mode.
14221-1800-2000 94 3. Change the parameters as needed to match the configuration of the network you are trying to use for Wi-Fi programming. 4. Reprogram the radio with this personality over USB and activate it. 5. You should now be able to connect to this radio over Wi-Fi following the procedure as outlined in Section A.4. In order to connect over Wi-Fi, the currently active personality MUST have the correct Wi-Fi parameters. Therefore, care must be taken that all personalities on a given radio have the correct Wi-Fi parameters for the desired network. Otherwise, activation of another personality on the radio will result in the inability to establish a Wi-Fi connection. NOTE

6 14221-1800-2010 1.2 SAFETY TRAINING INFORMATION The Harris XL-200P portable radio generates RF electromagnetic energy during transmit mode. This radio is designed for and classified as “Occupational Use Only,” meaning it must be used only during the course of employment by individuals aware of the hazards and the ways to minimize such hazards. This radio is NOT intended for use by the “General Population” in an uncontrolled environment. The XL-200P portable radio has been tested and complies with the FCC RF exposure limits for “Occupational Use Only.” In addition, this radio complies with the following Standards and Guidelines with regard to RF energy and electromagnetic energy levels and evaluation of such levels for exposure to humans: • FCC OET Bulletin 65 Edition 97-01 Supplement C, Evaluating Compliance with FCC Guidelines for Human Exposure to Radio Frequency Electromagnetic Fields. • American National Standards Institute (C95.1 – 1992), IEEE Standard for Safety Levels with Respect to Human Exposure to Radio Frequency Electromagnetic Fields, 3 kHz to 300 GHz. • American National Standards Institute (C95.3 – 1992), IEEE Recommended Practice for the Measurement of Potentially Hazardous Electromagnetic Fields – RF and Microwave. • IC Standard RSS-102, Issue 4, 2010: Spectrum Management and Telecommunications Radio Standards Specification. Radio frequency Exposure Compliance of Radio communication Apparatus (All Frequency Bands). WARNING
14221-1800-2010 7 1.2.1 RF Exposure Guidelines To ensure that exposure to RF electromagnetic energy is within the FCC allowable limits for occupational use, always adhere to the following guidelines: • DO NOT operate the radio without a proper antenna attached, as this may damage the radio and may also cause the FCC RF exposure limits to be exceeded. A proper antenna is the antenna supplied with this radio by Harris or an antenna specifically authorized by Harris for use with this radio. • DO NOT transmit for more than 50% of total radio use time (“50% duty cycle”). Transmitting more than 50% of the time can cause FCC RF exposure compliance requirements to be exceeded. The radio is transmitting when the “TX” indicator appears in the display. The radio will transmit by pressing the “PTT” (Push-To-Talk) button. • ALWAYS transmit using low power when possible. In addition to conserving battery charge, low power can reduce RF exposure. • ALWAYS use Harris authorized accessories (antennas, batteries, belt clips, speaker/mics, etc). Use of unauthorized accessories may cause the FCC Occupational/Controlled Exposure RF compliance requirements to be exceeded. (Refer to Table 1-1.) • As noted in Table 1-1, ALWAYS keep the housing of the transmitter AT LEAST 0.47 inches (1.2 cm) from the body and at least 0.98 inches (2.5 cm) from the face when transmitting to ensure FCC RF exposure compliance requirements are not exceeded. However, to provide the best sound quality to the recipients of your transmission, Harris recommends you hold the microphone at least 5 cm (2 inches) from mouth, and slightly off to one side. CAUTION

To avoid such interference, turn off the radios in areas where signs are posted to do so. DO NOT operate the transmitter in areas that are sensitive to electromagnetic radiation such as hospitals, aircraft, and blasting sites. 1 This is worst case based on the thinnest body mount accessory (belt clip).
14221-1800-2010 9 1.3 REGULATORY APPROVALS 1.3.1 Part 15 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. 1.3.2 Industry Canada This device complies with Industry Canada license-exempt RSS standard(s). Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference, including interference that may cause undesired operation of the device. 1.4 OPERATING TIPS Antenna location and condition are important when operating a portable radio. Operating the radio in low lying areas or terrain, under power lines or bridges, inside of a vehicle or in a metal framed building can severely reduce the range of the unit. Mountains can also reduce the range of the unit. In areas where transmission or reception is poor, some improvement may be obtained by ensuring the antenna is vertical. Moving a few yards in another direction or moving to a higher elevation may also improve communications. Vehicular operation can be aided with the use of an externally mounted antenna. Battery condition is another important factor in the trouble free operation of a portable radio. Always properly charge the batteries. 1.4.1 Efficient Radio Operation Keep the antenna in a vertical position when receiving or transmitting a message.
10 14221-1800-2010 Do NOT hold onto the antenna when the radio is powered on. 1.4.1.1 Antenna Care and Replacement Always keep the antenna at least 0..47 inches (1.2 cm) away from the body and 0.98 inches (2.5 cm) from the face when transmitting to ensure FCC RF exposure compliance requirements are not exceeded. Do not use the portable radio with a damaged or missing antenna. A minor burn may result if skin comes into contact with a damaged antenna. Replace a damaged antenna immediately. Operating a portable radio with the antenna missing could cause personal injury, damage the radio, and may violate FCC regulations. Use only the supplied or approved antenna. Unauthorized antennas, modifications, or attachments could cause damage to the radio unit and may violate FCC regulations. WARNINGWARNINGWARNINGCAUTION
14221-1800-2010 11 1.4.1.2 Electronic Devices RF energy from portable radios may affect some electronic equipment. Most modern electronic equipment in cars, hospitals, homes, etc., are shielded from RF energy. However, in areas in which you are instructed to turn off two-way radio equipment, always observe the rules. If in doubt, turn it off! 1.4.1.3 Aircraft Always turn off a portable radio before boarding any aircraft! • Use it on the ground only with crew permission. • DO NOT use while in-flight!! 1.4.1.4 Electric Blasting Caps To prevent accidental detonation of electric blasting caps, DO NOT use two-way radios within 1000 feet of blasting operations. Always obey the "Turn Off Two-Way Radios" signs posted where electric blasting caps are being used. (OSHA Standard: 1926.900) CAUTIONWARNINGWARNING
12 14221-1800-2010 1.4.1.5 Potentially Explosive Atmospheres Areas with potentially explosive atmospheres are often, but not always, clearly marked. These may be fuelling areas, such as gas stations, fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities, and areas where the air contains chemicals or particles, such as grain, dust, or metal powders. Sparks in such areas could cause an explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or even death. Turn OFF two-way radios when in any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere.

Cette radio est conçue et classée pour une « Utilisation professionnelle seulement », ce qui signifie qu’elle ne doit être utilisée que dans le cadre d’un emploi par des individus conscients des risques et des moyens de limiter ceux-ci. Cette radio N’EST PAS conçue pour une utilisation par la « Population générale » dans un environnement non contrôlé. La radio portative XL-200P a été testée et est conforme aux limites d’exposition aux RF de la FCC pour une « Utilisation professionnelle seulement ». De plus, cette radio Harris est conforme aux normes et directives suivantes quant à l’énergie des RF et aux niveaux d’énergie électromagnétique, ainsi qu’à l’évaluation de ces niveaux pour l’exposition aux humains : • Bulletin 65 du OET de la FCC, édition 97-01, supplément C, portant sur l’évaluation de la conformité aux directives de la FCC quant à l’exposition humaine aux champs électromagnétiques des radiofréquences. • American National Standards Institute (C95.1 – 1992), norme de l’IEEE sur les niveaux
14221-1800-2010 15 sécuritaires d’exposition humaine aux champs électromagnétiques des radiofréquences, 3 kHz à 300 GHz. • American National Standards Institute (C95.3 – 1992), pratique recommandée par l’IEEE pour la mesure des champs électromagnétiques potentiellement dangereux – RF et micro-ondes. 2.2.1 Directives sur l’exposition aux RF AVERTISSEMENT Pour s’assurer que l’exposition à l’énergie électromagnétique des RF se situe dans les limites acceptables de la FCC pour l’utilisation professionnelle, respectez toujours les directives suivantes : • N’utilisez PAS la radio sans qu’une antenne appropriée y soit connectée, car ceci peut endommager la radio et également causer un dépassement des limites d’exposition aux RF de la FCC. Une antenne appropriée est celle fournie par Harris avec cette radio, ou une antenne spécifiquement autorisée par Harris pour être utilisée avec cette radio. • Ne transmettez PAS pendant plus de 50 % de la durée d’utilisation totale de la radio (« cycle de service de 50 % »). La transmission pendant plus de 50 % du temps peut causer un dépassement des exigences de conformité de la FCC en matière d’exposition aux RF. La radio transmet lorsque l’indicateur « TX » apparaît sur l’affichage. La radio transmet lorsqu’on appuie sur le bouton « PTT » (bouton de microphone). • Transmettez TOUJOURS en basse puissance lorsque possible. En plus de préserver la charge de la pile, une faible puissance réduit l’exposition aux RF.
16 14221-1800-2010 • Utilisez TOUJOURS des accessoires autorisés Harris (antennes, piles, pinces de ceinture, haut-parleurs/micros, etc.). L’utilisation d’accessoires non autorisés peut entraîner un dépassement des exigences de conformité pour une exposition aux RF professionnelle ou contrôlée de la FCC. (Reportez-vous à Tableau 2-1.) • Tel qu’indiqué dans Tableau 2-1, conservez TOUJOURS l’appareil et son antenne à AU MOINS 1,2 cm (0,47 po) du corps, et à au moins 2,5 cm (0,98 po) du visage pendant la transmission, pour vous assurer de ne pas dépasser les exigences de conformité de la FCC en matière d’exposition aux RF. Cependant, pour offrir la meilleure qualité sonore aux auditeurs de votre transmission, Harris recommande de tenir le microphone à au moins 5 cm (2 po) de votre bouche et légèrement déplacé sur un côté.

L’utilisation de la radio dans des zones de faible élévation, sous
18 14221-1800-2010 des lignes électriques ou des ponts, à l’intérieur d’un véhicule ou dans un immeuble à ossature métallique, peut réduire la portée de l’appareil de manière considérable. Les montagnes peuvent également réduire la portée de l’unité. Dans les zones où la transmission ou la réception est insatisfaisante, certaines améliorations peuvent être obtenues en s’assurant que l’antenne est verticale. Se déplacer de quelques mètres dans une autre direction ou à un emplacement plus élevé peut également améliorer les communications. L’utilisation d’une antenne fixée à l’extérieur peut faciliter le fonctionnement dans un véhicule. L’état de la pile est un autre facteur important d’une utilisation sans tracas d’une radio portative. Chargez toujours correctement la pile. 2.4.1 Utilisation Efficace de la Radio Gardez l’antenne dans une position verticale pendant la réception ou la transmission d’un message. MISE EN GARDE Ne tenez PAS l’antenne lorsque la radio est allumée! 2.4.1.1 Entretien et Remplacement de l’antenne MISE EN GARDE Conservez TOUJOURS l’appareil et son antenne à au moins 1,5 cm (0,59 po) du corps, et à au moins 2,5 cm (1,0 po) du visage pendant la transmission, pour vous assurer de ne pas dépasser les exigences de conformité de la FCC en matière d’exposition aux RF.
14221-1800-2010 19 MISE EN GARDE N’utilisez pas la radio portative si son antenne est endommagée ou absente. Une brûlure légère peut se produire au contact d’une antenne endommagée avec la peau. Remplacez immédiatement une antenne endommagée. L’utilisation d’une radio portative alors que l’antenne est absente peut causer des blessures, endommager la radio et pourrait enfreindre la réglementation de la FCC. AVERTISSEMENT Utilisez seulement l’antenne fournie ou une antenne approuvée. Des antennes non autorisées, des modifications ou des ajouts à une antenne peuvent endommager la radio et enfreindre la réglementation de la FCC. 2.4.1.2 Appareils Électroniques AVERTISSEMENT L’énergie des RF provenant de radios portatives peut affecter certains appareils électroniques. La majorité de l’équipement électronique moderne dans les voitures, les hôpitaux, les maisons, etc. est blindé contre l’énergie des RF. Cependant, dans les zones où l’on vous demande de fermer l’équipement de radio bidirectionnelle, respectez toujours les règles. En cas de doute, éteignez-le!
20 14221-1800-2010 2.4.1.3 Avion MISE EN GARDE • Éteignez toujours une radio portative avant d’embarquer à bord d’un avion! • Ne l’utilisez au sol qu’avec la permission de l’équipage. • NE l’utilisez PAS durant le vol! 2.4.1.4 Détonateurs électriques MISE EN GARDE Pour prévenir la détonation accidentelle des détonateurs électriques, n’utilisez PAS de radios bidirectionnelles à moins de 305 m (1 000 pi) des opérations de détonation.

22 14221-1800-2010 Always use Harris authorized accessories (antennas, batteries, belt clips, speaker/mics, etc). Use of unauthorized accessories may cause the FCC Occupational/Controlled Exposure RF compliance requirements to be exceeded. Always use the correct options and accessories (battery, antenna, speaker/mic, etc.) for the radio. Immersion rated options must be used with an immersion rated radio. Intrinsically safe options must be used with intrinsically safe radios. 4. BATTERY PACKS The XL-200P series portable radios use rechargeable, recyclable Nickel Metal Hydride (NiMH), Lithium-Polymer (Li-Poly), or Lithium-Ion (Li-Ion) battery packs. Please follow the directions below to maximize the useful life of each type of battery pack. Do not disassemble or modify Lithium battery packs. The Lithium battery packs are equipped with built-in safety and protection features. Should these features be disabled or tampered with in any way, the battery pack can leak electrolyte, overheat, emit smoke, burst, and/or ignite. If the battery pack is ruptured or is leaking electrolyte that results in skin or eye contact with the electrolyte, immediately flush the affected area with water. If the battery electrolyte gets in the eyes, flush with water for 15 minutes and consult a physician immediately. WARNINGCAUTIONWARNINGWARNING
14221-1800-2010 23 Always use Harris authorized chargers and conditioners. Use of unauthorized chargers and conditioners may void the warranty. 4.1 CONDITIONING NIMH BATTERY PACKS Condition a new NiMH battery pack before putting into use. This also applies to rechargeable NiMH battery packs that have been stored for long periods (weeks, months, or longer). Conditioning requires fully charging and fully discharging the battery pack three (3) times using the tri-chemistry charger. The first time the battery pack is put into the charger, this unit will condition Nickel-based battery packs by automatically charging and discharging (cycling) the battery. Refer to the appropriate charger manual for details. Failure to properly condition NiMH battery packs before initial use will result in shortened performance by the battery. 4.2 CONDITIONING LITHIUM BATTERY PACKS Lithium-based battery packs do not suffer from memory effect and therefore do not require conditioning. 4.3 STORING LI-ION BATTERY PACKS If a battery pack is expected to be idle for a month or more, it should be properly prepared. Li-Ion battery packs should not be stored fully charged. Before storing the battery pack, discharge it to 40% capacity. If the battery is not discharged prior to storage, its overall capacity may be reduced. Although all battery packs experience some capacity loss during storage, the shelf life for Li-Ion battery packs is about 3 months. However, note that any capacity drop CAUTIONCAUTION
24 14221-1800-2010 which occurs during storage is permanent and cannot be reversed. Li-Ion battery packs should be purchased and used immediately.
