BATTERY FEATURES
RDX Series radios provide Lithium-Ion
batteries that come in different capacities that
defines the battery life.
About the Li-Ion Battery
The RDX Series radio comes equipped with a
rechargeable Li-Ion battery. This battery should
be fully charged before initial use to ensure
optimum capacity and performance.
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
which receives minimal overcharging and
15
DRAFT 1
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
DRAFT 1
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.
16
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.

Charging a Standard Battery
The drop-in tray charger has a removable
bracket that is adjustable depending on the
type of battery that needs to be charged. It is
designed to charge either the battery (with the
radio) or a standalone battery. The drop-in tray
charger's default position will charge a
standard battery. The following image shows
the orientation for each battery:
Note:
Ensure that the bracket in the charger is
adjusted to the correct position for either

GETTING STARTED
For the following explanations, refer to
“Parts Of The Radio” on page 12.
TURNING RADIO ON/OFF
To turn ON the radio, rotate the On/Off/Volume
Knob clockwise. The radio plays one of the
following:
•
Power up tone and channel number
announcement, or
•
Battery level and channel number
announcements, or
•
Silent (Audible tones disabled)
The LED blinks red briefly.
To turn the radio OFF, rotate the On/Off/Volume
Knob counterclockwise until you hear a ‘click’
and the radio LED Indicator turns OFF.
ADJUSTING VOLUME
Turn the On/Off/Volume Knob clockwise to
increase the volume, or counterclockwise to
decrease the volume.

audible voice indicates the selected channel.
Each channel has its own Frequency,

TALKING AND MONITORING
It is important to monitor for traffic before
transmitting to avoid ‘talking over’ someone
who is already transmitting
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,

you with a choice of code combinations that
filter out static, noise, and unwanted

Advanced Configuration is a configuration
mode that allows the customization of
additional features via the radio’s front panel.
The Auto-Scan feature allows you to set a
particular channel to automatically enable Scan
each time you switch to that channel.
For non-display model radios, the navigation is
guided by an audible voice prompt.
The Active Channels feature allows you to
increase or decrease the amount of active
channels (In the range of maximum channels
allowed).

Call Tones
Call Tones feature allows you to transmit an
audible tone to other radios on the same

or to alert them without speaking.
To use this feature, the Call Tones must be
programmed to either SB1 or SB2 and 1 of the

WEATHER FEATURE (not for RDU4103+)
The RDX radio weather feature can detect
weather alerts/warnings that are broadcasted
by NWR. The RDX radio can be programmed
to detect the analog tone or digital-over-audio
protocol. The analog tone is a 1050 Hz tone
(Warning Alarm Tone), which is issued for 10
PROGRAMMING FEATURES
The RDX radio weather mode can be
programmed to operate and receive weather
channels that are broadcasted by the National
Weather Radio (NWR). The National Weather
Radio system is a nationwide network of radio
stations (more than 1000 stations in United
States) that broadcast continuous weather
information for the public. The NWR
broadcasts all types of weather service
warnings, watches, forecasts and other hazard
information. The NWR can also broadcast nonweather alerts such as national security,
natural, environmental, and public safety in
conjunctions with the Emergency Alert System
(EAS).

seconds immediately before the warning
message by the NWR transmitter. When RDX
radio detects the Warning Alarm tone, it
unmutes audio and allows the user to hear the
weather alert message. As for digital-overaudio protocol, it is a newer technology called
Specific Area Message Encoding (SAME) that
allows weather radio to receive digital data
stream about the type of weather events,
timing, duration, and location. When RDX
radio detects these special warnings, the radio
can be programmed to automatically generate
a loud tone, enable LED indicator, and display
“hazard” status on the display. With the
SAME technology, the RDX radio weather
mode can be programmed to detect the type
of weather warnings or watches for a specified
the county or counties.

Weather Alert Mode
Select the alert mode the radio will respond to
alerts sent from the National Weather Service,
which transmitted prior to the broadcast of any
message about a life or property threatening
event.
Choices available are:
•

In Weather Channel Mode, the radio is in a
muted state until it detects the WAT/SAME.
When the radio detects the WAT, the radio
unmutes and allows the user to hear the
weather alert message.
2.
In two-way mode (on two-way channel),
Weather Alert feature becomes a special scan
feature. The radio scans between the current
selected two-way channel and the selected
weather channel. When the radio detects WAT/
SAME signal on the weather channel, the radio
unmutes to allow the user to listen the weather
message. For Tone Alert, the radio stays in
receiving mode until weather signal is weak or
user presses the PTT button or changes the
channel using the Channel Selector Knob. For
