Selon la règlementation d'Industrie Canada, cet émetteur radio
ne peut être utilisé qu'avec une antenne dont le type et le gain
maximal (ou minimal) sont approuvés par Industrie Canada
pour cet émetteur. Afin de limiter les interférences radio pour les
autres utilisateurs, le type et le gain de l'antenne doivent être
choisis de façon à ce que la puissance isotrope rayonnée
équivalente (P.I.R.E.) ne soit pas plus forte qu'il ne le faut pour
établir la communication.
Le présent émetteur a été approuvé par Industrie Canada pour
fonctionner avec les types d'antenne agréés par Motorola et
ayant un gain admissible maximal ainsi que l'impédance
requise pour chaque type d'antenne indiqué. Les types
d'antenne non inclus, dont le gain est supérieur au gain
maximal indiqué, sont strictement interdits pour l'exploitation de
l'émetteur.

How to Use This Guide
This User Guide covers the basic operation of the APX™3000
Portables.
However, your dealer or system administrator may have
customized your radio for your specific needs. Check with your
dealer or system administrator for more information.
Throughout the text in this publication, you will notice the use of
WARNING, Caution, and Note. These notations are used to
emphasize that safety hazards exist, and the care that must be
taken or observed.

Additional Performance Enhancement
The following are some of the latest creations designed to
enhance the security, quality and efficiency of your radios.
 Dynamic System Resilience (DSR)
DSR ensures your radio system is seamlessly switched to a
backup master site dynamically in case of system failure.
DSR also provides additional indication e.g. failure detection,
fault recovery, and redundancy within the system to address to
you who is in need. Mechanisms related to the Integrated Voice
and Data (IV & D) or data centric are all supported by DSR.
Getting Started
 CrossTalk Prevention
This feature prevents crosstalk scenario from happening,
especially when a wideband antenna is used. This feature
allows the adjustment of the Trident Transmitting SSI clock rate
in your radio to be varied from the Receiving Frequency. This
subsequently reduced the possibilities of radio frequency
interfering spurs and prevents the issues of crosstalk.
English
 Encrypted Integrated Data (EID)
EID provides security encryption and authentication of IV & D
data bearer service communication between your radio and the
Customer Enterprise Network.
 SecureNet
SecureNet allows you to perform secured communications on
an Analog or Motorola Data Communication (MDC) channel.
The MDC OTAR feature will allow you to perform OTAR
activities on an MDC channel.
APX_3000_M1.book Page 3 Tuesday, June 4, 2013 5:17 PM
What Your Dealer/System Administrator
Can Tell You
You can also consult your dealer or system administrator about
the following:
• Is your radio preprogrammed with any preset conventional
channels?
• Which buttons have been preprogrammed to access other
features?
• What optional accessories may suit your needs?
APX 3000 is a small body radio meant to work together with
other light weight accessories such as Mission Critical Wireless
Remote Control Unit (RCU), headset and pod in order to
interact with you efficiently.
IMPORTANT!
1 Your radio has a Voice Announcement feature
(programmable) which provides audible status
updates of your radio function through the speaker
microphone, earpiece or headset. This helps to
confirm the changes you have made when interacting
with your radio in covert. See Voice Announcement†
on page 62 to learn how this feature works.
2 You must connect a GCAI Display Remote Speaker
Microphone (DRSM) to see the radio status
displayed in words or icons. Most of these radio
statuses are mentioned in the content across this
manual.
Preparing Your Radio for Use
Check with your dealer or system administrator for the correct
radio settings, if your radio is to be operated in extreme
temperatures (less than -30 °C or more than +60 °C), to ensure
proper operation.
