5. Troubleshooting
Phenomena Possible Cause Solution
Programming
fails.
E-PRAD(G) is not in the
programming mode.
Press and hold TYPE, and start E-PRAD(G). Release
TYPE when RUN indicator is on. TX and RX indicators are
on at the same time, indicating that E-PRAD(G) enters the
programming mode.
GSM link
cannot be
established.
GSM signal is poor.
If GMS signal bars are off, check whether public network
antenna is connected. If it is connected but GSM signal is
still poor, you are advised to move the public network
antenna or device to an open area. Tests show that the
drop rate is relatively high when the number of signal bars
is 3 or less (in this case, the BS has a signal strength of
about -75dBm)
E-PRAD(G) has
already been
connected to other
devices.
If RUN indicator is on, GSM connection is established. In
this case, stop ongoing communication or restart the
device.
GSM whitelist feature is
enabled.
Add the number of calling device to the whitelist.
When the auto-call feature is enabled, the E-PRAD(G)

Change the PC IP address to the same network segment
as the device IP address.
The device IP address is "192.168.40.110" by default. You
can press and hold CONFIG button to restore the factory
settings.
Voice
communication
fails when GSM
network is
connected.
The device frequency is
inconsistent with the
portable radio
frequency.
Set the device frequency to be consistent with the portable
radio frequency.
In the PDT/DMR mode,
interconnection group
call number of the
device is inconsistent
with that of the portable
radio.
Set the group call number of the device to be consistent
with that of the portable radio.
The device’s vocoder is
inconsistent with the
portable radio’s
vocoder.
Set the device’s vocoder to be consistent with the portable
radio’s vocoder.
In the PDT/DMR or
MPT trunking mode,
private network
registration fails.
Check device parameters to ensure that the device
registers with the PDT/DMR or MPT trunking system
successfully.
In the conventional
mode, channels are
configured incorrectly.
The channel 1 of area 1 must be set to digital channel, and
channel 2 of area 2 must be set to analog channel.
In private network
settings, whitelist
feature is enabled.
Add the group call number of the calling portable radio to
the whitelist.

Phenomena Possible Cause Solution
ALM indicator is
on.
Trunking system
registration fails. Check whether device parameters are correctly configured.
The device is not
supplied with power
properly.
Send the device back for repair.
If the above solutions cannot solve your problems, or you may have some other queries, please contact us
