Additional Performance Enhancement
The following are some of the latest creations designed to
enhance the security, quality and efficiency of APX radios.
 ASTRO 25 Enhanced Data
ASTRO 25 Enhanced Data is optimized to handle different
message sizes and update rates from different applications.
Install Enhanced Data to the Integrated Data system with a
software installation to improve data channel efficiency and
enable denser network traffic.
Getting Started
 Dynamic System Resilience (DSR)
English
DSR seamlessly switches the radio system to a backup master
site during system failures. DSR also provides additional
indication e.g. failure detection, fault recovery, and redundancy
within the system to address to the user in need. Mechanisms
related to the Integrated Voice and Data (IV & D) or data centric
are all supported by DSR.
 CrossTalk Prevention
This feature prevents crosstalk scenarios from happening,
especially when a wideband antenna is used. This feature
allows the adjustment of the Trident Transmitting SSI clock rate
in the radio to be different from the Receiving Frequency. This
APX_4000_M3.book Page 3 Thursday, March 13, 2014 10:59 AM
subsequently reduces the possibilities of radio frequency
interfering spurs and it also prevents crosstalk.
EID provides security encryption and authentication of IV & D
data bearer service communication between the radio and the
Customer Enterprise Network.
Check with your dealer or system administrator for the correct
radio settings, if the radio is to be operated in extreme
temperatures (less than -30 °C or more than +60 °C), to ensure
proper top and front display operation.
 SecureNet
You can also consult your dealer or system administrator about
the following:
SecureNet allows user to perform secured communications on
an Analog or Motorola Data Communication (MDC) channel.
The MDC OTAR feature will allow users to perform OTAR
activities on an MDC channel.

Radio users who switch from analog to digital radios often
assume that the lack of static on a digital channel is an
indication that the radio is not working properly. This is not the

information to be heard.

The ASTRO 25 Advanced Messaging Solution allows you to
quickly send and receive messages and run database queries
directly from your data-enabled Motorola two-way radios.
Federal mandate requires Two-Factor Authentication when
querying Federal and State databases. With this advance
messaging solution you have the ability enable Two-Factor
Authentication.
With Query and Two-Factor Authentication, you can use a
secure system logon to initiate and receive key information on
people, vehicles and properties when doing the regular security
patrol. You can access to local or external databases such as
the National Crime Information Center (NCIC), for "Hot Hits" on
priors and warrants. Query and Two-Factor Authentication has
Criminal Justice Information Services (CJIS) security
compliance for queries.

Procedure:
ASTRO 25 Advanced Messaging Solution

• New User Authentication for User Login

• TMS for messaging
• New Service Advertisement for service availabilities

The radio with Two-Factor capabilities are backward compatible
with the existing device registration system and TMS servers.
 System Setup for ASTRO Advanced Messaging
Advanced Features
Solution
 Two-Factor Authentication
Two-Factor Authentication is an extension of existing ARS and
TMS operation. This feature allows you to authenticate yourself
with a username, unit ID, password and passcode.
Your user name, unit ID and password all need to be
provisioned in PremierOne™. Your user account in PremierOne
needs to be linked to an RSA account specifying a token to be
used with the Two-Factor passcode.
The purpose of this feature is to allow the sender of a text
message to address a specific user of the radio, so the
message is delivered to the user, not to the radio which may
have any user using it at the time.
The radios caches the user name, unit ID and or Single Factor
password in the codeplug, this allows the radio to automatically
log in to use Single Factor authentication upon power up or
mode change. The Two-Factor passcode is not stored in the
codeplug. You can upgrade the Single Factor session to a TwoFactor session by entering the Two-Factor passcode only. After
an interruption (for example mode change, DSR switch over,
power loss) the radio is capable of restoring the active session
in its current state as long as the session is active in the server .
Secondly, this feature supports query authentication
requirements so the query service knows which user originated
a query.
Note:
84
English
Power loss and power down are different activities,
power down occurs when the user intentionally powers
off the radio, power loss is when the battery dies or is
removed from the unit.
You can still send text messages without logging in as a user.
The user login feature only enables the recipient of your
message to identify you as the sender by assigning a username
to your message.
Note:
A predefined username that’s set more than the
maximum allowed characters is an invalid name.

The Global Positioning System (GPS)
This feature uses information from the Global Positioning
System (GPS) satellites orbiting the Earth to determine the
approximate geographical location of your radio, expressed as
latitude and longitude or MGRS format per request from
customer. The availability and accuracy of this location
information (and the amount of time that it takes to calculate it)
varies depending on the environment in which you are using the
GPS feature.
Direct Kill allows you to make your own radio inoperable.
For example, GPS location fixes are very difficult to obtain
indoors, in covered locations, between high buildings, or in
situations where you have not established a clear broad view of
the sky.
Procedure:
 Understanding the GPS Feature
1 Press and hold Top Side Button then press the Orange
The GPS technology uses radio signals from earth orbiting
satellites, to establish the location coordinates, maximizing your
view of clear unobstructed sky is essential for optimum
performance.

OR
If the receiving radio is powered off or already killed, your
radio display shows No Acknowledgement.
Where adequate signals from multiple satellites are not
available (usually because you cannot establish a view of a
wide area of the sky), the GPS feature of your radio will not
work. Such situations include but are not limited to:
• Underground locations
93
English
APX_4000_M3.book Page 94 Thursday, March 13, 2014 10:59 AM
• Inside of buildings, trains, or other covered vehicles
 Enhancing GPS Performance
• Under any other metal or concrete roof or structure
Sometimes, the GPS feature may be unable to complete a
location calculation successfully. You then see a message
indicating that your radio cannot connect to enough visible
satellites.
• Between tall buildings or under dense tree-cover
• In temperature extremes outside the operating limits of your
radio
Even where location information can be calculated in such
situations, it may take longer to do so, and your location
estimate may not be as accurate. Therefore, in any emergency
situation, always report your location to your dispatcher.
Advanced Features
Note:
Even where adequate signals from multiple satellites
are available, your GPS feature only provides an
approximate location, usually within 20 meters from
your actual location, but sometimes further away.
Keep in mind that the accuracy of the location information and
the time it takes to obtain it varies depending upon
circumstances, particularly the ability to receive signals from an
adequate number of satellites.
Note:
94
English
The satellites used by the GPS feature are controlled
by the U.S. government and are subject to changes
implemented in accordance with the Department of
Defense GPS user policy and the Federal Radio
Navigation Plan. These changes may affect the
performance of the GPS feature on your radio.
To maximize the ability of your radio to determine a fix, please
note the following guidelines:
• For your initial fix, hold the radio in the face position.
• Stay in the open. The GPS feature works best where there is
nothing between your radio and a large amount of open sky.
 The Outdoor Location Feature (Using GPS)
This feature allows you to determine your current location using
a location menu, as well as your current distance and bearing in
relation to another location. Radio location may be requested
and reported over-the-air.
Your radio stores up to a maximum of sixty (60) programmable
location coordinates, also known as waypoints. When the
memory is full, the next waypoints automatically replaces the
oldest waypoints in the radio.

Using Site Selectable Alerts (ASTRO 25)
A Site Selectable Alert (SSA) is an Intelligent Lighting indicator
with audio alert sent to radios at a site or a few sites to notify the
users when there is a special situation that they need to be
aware of. Only authorized radios are enabled to send SSA.
Upon the activation of a SSA, the receiving radios display the
alert alias and generate the periodic alert tone.
Advanced Features
Note:
Alert alias, alert tone, and alert period can be

radio to repeat the alert tone. An interval of 5 seconds
might impact the battery life of the radio. Check with
your dealer or system administrator for more details.
When mixing SSA with received voice audio, the SSA
alert is reduced in volume to ensure that the voice
