BATTERY FEATURES
RDX Series™ radios provide Lithium-Ion
batteries that come in different capacities that
will define the battery life. It also offers the
option to use Alkaline batteries.
About the Li-Ion Battery
RADIO OVERVIEW
The RDX Series™ radio comes equipped with
a rechargeable Li-Ion battery. This battery
should be charged before initial use to ensure
optimum capacity and performance.
English
Battery life is determined by several factors.
Among the more critical are the regular
overcharge of batteries and the average depth
of discharge with each cycle. Typically, the
greater the overcharge and the deeper the
average discharge, the fewer cycles a battery
will last. For example, a battery which is
overcharged and discharged 100% several
times a day, lasts fewer cycles than a battery
that receives less of an overcharge and is
discharged to 50% per day. Further, a battery
14
which receives minimal overcharging and
averages only 25% discharge, lasts even
longer.
Motorola batteries are designed specifically to
be used with a Motorola charger and vice
versa. Charging in non-Motorola equipment
may lead to battery damage and void the
battery warranty. The battery should be at
about 77°F (25°C) (room temperature),
whenever possible. Charging a cold battery
(below 50° F [10°C]) may result in leakage of
electrolyte and ultimately in failure of the
battery. Charging a hot battery (above 95°F
[35°C]) results in reduced discharge capacity,
affecting the performance of the radio.
Motorola rapid-rate battery chargers contain a
temperature-sensing circuit to ensure that
batteries are charged within the temperature
limits stated above.
Battery Recycling and Disposal
Many retailers and dealers participate in this
program. For the location of the drop-off facility
closest to you, access RBRC's Internet web
site at:
www.rbrc.com
or call:
1-800-8-BATTERY
This internet site and telephone number also
provides other useful information concerning
recycling options for consumers, businesses
and governmental agencies.
RADIO OVERVIEW
Li-Ion rechargeable batteries can be recycled.
However, recycling facilities may not be
available in all areas. Under various U.S. state
laws and the laws of several other countries,
batteries must be recycled and cannot be
disposed of in landfills or incinerators. Contact
your local waste management agency for
specific requirements and information in your
area. Motorola fully endorses and encourages
the recycling of Li-Ion batteries. In the U.S. and
Canada, Motorola participates in the
nationwide Rechargeable Battery Recycling
Corporation (RBRC) program for Li-Ion battery
collection and recycling.

The Multi Unit Charger (MUC) allows drop-in
charging of up to 6 radios or batteries. Batteries
can be charged with the radios or removed and
placed in the MUC separately. Each of the 6
charging pockets can hold a radio or battery,
but not both.
1.
Place the charger on a flat surface.
2.
Insert the power cord plug into the MUC’s jack.

TURNING RADIO ON/OFF
To turn ON the radio, rotate the On/Off/Volume

SELECTING A CHANNEL
To select a channel, rotate the Channel

GETTING STARTED
Program each channel separately. Each
channel has its own Frequency, Interference

TALKING AND MONITORING
To turn the radio OFF, rotate the On/Off/Volume
Knob counterclockwise until you hear a ‘click’
and the radio LED Indicator turns OFF.
It is important to monitor for traffic before
transmitting to avoid ‘talking over’ someone
who is already transmitting
ADJUSTING VOLUME
To monitor, long press and hold the SB1(*)
button to access channel traffic. If no activity is
present, you will hear ‘static’. To release, press
SB1 again. Once channel traffic has cleared,
proceed with your call by pressing the PTT
button. When transmitting, the LED Indicator
will blink red every 3 seconds.
Turn the On/Off/Volume Knob clockwise to
increase the volume, or counterclockwise to
decrease the volume.

Do not hold the radio too close to the ear
when the volume is high or when adjusting
the volume

PROGRAMMING MODE
Programming Mode is a special radio mode to
program basic radio's features by using the
radio’s panel.
When the radio is set to Programming Mode,
you are able to read and modify three features:
The Auto-Scan feature allows you to set a
particular channel to automatically enable Scan
each time you switch to that channel.
Learning to Read the Values the Radio
Signals You
As the non-display model does not have a
display to show the values that are being
programmed, the radio will communicate this
information using beeps and LED indications.
The radio's LEDs will blink two colors:
•
Frequencies,
•
Orange to signal '0' and,
•
Codes (CTCSS/DPL) and,
•
Red for other values from '1' to '9'.
•
Auto-Scan.
The Programming Frequencies feature allows
you to select frequencies for each channel.
English
The Interference Eliminator Code (CTCSS/
DPL) helps minimize interference by providing
you with a choice of code combinations that
filter out static, noise, and unwanted
messages.

Short and long red blinks differentiate the
specific number the radio is signaling you.

the Channel Selector Knob to the desired
channel
Note:
Reading Frequencies Values
When reading frequencies values you need to
read two digits as RDX Series™ radios have
27 frequencies for VHF and 89 frequencies for
UHF.
Once in ‘Idle’ Programming Mode, the radio will
signal the first value it was programmed when
you short press the PTT button (see Figure 2:
Reading Frequencies Values on page 40). This
value corresponds to the frequency's first digit
PROGRAMMING
FEATURES
To read or modify Frequencies, Codes and
Auto-Scan, set the radio to 'Programming

SB1 button simultaneously while turning ON
the radio for 3 to 5 seconds until a ‘chirp’
sounds to indicate that you have entered 'Idle'
Programming Mode (*).The LED Indicator will
start blinking a green heartbeat.
Once you are in the 'Idle' Programming Mode,
you will be able to read the Frequencies,
Codes and Auto-Scan setting by short pressing
the PTT button to move along the different
programmable features.

it, as the maximum value allowed is 122. Same
thing will happen with frequencies. Check the
Frequencies and Codes Charts section to
make sure you are programming a valid

Try This...
Steel and/or concrete structures, heavy foliage, buildings or vehicles decrease
range. Check for clear line of sight to improve transmission.
Wearing radio close to body such as in a pocket or on a belt decreases range.
Change location of radio. To increase range and coverage, you can either
Limited talk range
reduce obstructions, increase power, or use UHF radio instead of VHF radio.
UHF radios provide greater coverage in industrial and commercial buildings.
VHF is designed for outdoor or smaller or wood structures. Increasing power
provides greater signal range and increased penetration through obstructions.
Refer to See “Talking and Monitoring” on page 29.
Make sure the PTT button is completely pressed when transmitting.
Confirm that the radios have the same Channel, Frequency, Interference
Eliminator Code and Scramble Code settings. Refer to “Talking and Monitoring”
