BATTERY FEATURES
RM Series radios provide Lithium-Ion
batteries that come in different capacities
that will define the battery life.
About the Li-Ion Battery
RADIO OVERVIEW
The RM 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.

GETTING STARTED
Setting VOX Sensitivity
Battery Save
The sensitivity of the radio's accessory or
microphone can be adjusted to suit different
operating environments. VOX sensitivity can
be programmed via the CPS.
Battery Save feature extends battery life as
your radio goes into ‘Idle’ state. To enable/
disable press SB1 and SB2 buttons
simultaneously for 2 or 3 seconds while
powering up the radio until you hear a quick
series of beeps. To have a slightly better attack
time, set Battery Save feature to OFF so that
the radio is always ready to transmit or receive
without any delays.
Default value is OFF (level 0). If you want to
use the VOX feature, VOX level should be set
at a level different from 0.
•
1 = Low sensitivity
•
2 = Medium sensitivity
•
3 = High sensitivity
Microphone Gain
The sensitivity of the microphone can be
adjusted to fit different users or operating
environments.
This feature can be adjusted only through the
CPS. Microphone default setting is set to level
2 (medium gain).

Note:
Battery Save feature is set to ON by default
Reset to Factory Defaults
Reset to Factory Defaults will set back all radio
features to the original factory default settings.

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 four features:
•
Select Frequencies from a Pre-Defined list
•
Codes (CTCSS/DPL)
•
Auto-Scan.
•
Active Channels
The Programming Frequencies feature allows
you to select frequencies for each channel.
English
36
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.
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 via voice announciation .

Entering Programming Mode
Note:
Before programming the features, make
sure your radio is set to the channel you
wish to program. You can do so before
entering Programming Mode or at any time
during the Programming Mode by turning
the Channel Selector Knob to the desired
channel
Note:
(*)'Idle' Programming Mode is the stage of
the Programming Mode in which the radio is
waiting for the user to start the radio
programming cycle (refer “Entering
Programming Mode” on page 37)
Entering Frequencies Values
RM Series radios have 89 frequencies for UHF.
Once in ‘Idle’ Programming Mode, the first
value available to chage is Channel number,
you can go channel up or Channel down using
SB1 and SB2, after modified you will hear a
channel number confirmation. Pressing short
PTT you can select other features to be
confirmed or modified, again using SB1 and
SB2 you can change values. The radio always
via voice will signal the new value.

CPS allows the user to program frequencies,

as: Bandwidth Select, Time-out Timer, Power
Select, Scan List, Call Tones, Scramble,
Reverse Burst, etc. CPS is a very useful tool as
it can also lock the Front-Panel Radio

feature to be changed (to avoid accidentally
erasing the preset radio values). It also provides
security by giving the option to set up a
password for profile radio's management.

Reverse Burst
Power Select allows you to select between
high and low transmission power per frequency
