Getting StartedEnglish2The following special notations identify certain items:Additional Performance EnhancementThe following are some of the latest creations designed to enhance the security, quality and efficiency of APX radios.Dynamic System Resilience (DSR)DSR ensures the 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 the user in need. Mechanisms related to the Integrated Voice and Data (IV & D) or data centric are all supported by DSR.CrossTalk PreventionThis 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 the radio to be varied from the Receiving Frequency. This subsequently reduced the possibilities of radio frequency interfering spurs and prevents the issues of crosstalk. Encrypted Integrated Data (EID) EID provides security encryption and authentication of IV & D data bearer service communication between the radio and the Customer Enterprise Network.SecureNetSecureNet 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.Example DescriptionHome button or HButtons and keys are shown in bold print or as an icon.Phone Menu entries are shown similar to the way they appear on the radio’s display.>This means “Press the right side of the 4-way Navigation button”.

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.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.Understanding the GPS FeatureThe 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. 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:•In underground locations•Inside of buildings, trains, or other covered vehicles
Advanced FeaturesEnglish84•Under any other metal or concrete roof or structure•Between tall buildings or under dense tree-cover•In temperature extremes outside the operating limits of your radioEven 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.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: 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.Enhancing GPS PerformanceSometimes, 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.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.

This ID, consisting up to a maximum of eight characters, can be viewed by both the receiving radio and the dispatcher.Your radio’s ID number is also automatically sent every time the PTT button is pressed. This is a per-channel feature. For digital voice transmissions, your radio’s ID is sent continuously during the voice message.Using the Smart PTT Feature (Conventional Only)Smart PTT is a per-personality, programmable feature used in conventional radio systems to keep radio users from talking over other radio conversations.When smart PTT is enabled in your radio, you cannot transmit on an active channel.If you try to transmit on an active smart-PTT channel, you hear an alert tone, and the transmission is inhibited. The LED lights up solid yellow to indicate that the channel is busy.Three variations of smart PTT are available:Mode DescriptionTransmit Inhibit on Busy Channel with CarrierYou cannot transmit if any traffic is detected on the channel.Transmit Inhibit on Busy Channel with Wrong Squelch CodeYou cannot transmit on an active channel with a squelch code or (if secure-equipped) encryption key other than your own. If the PL code is the same as yours, the transmission is not prevented.Quick-Key OverrideThis feature can work in conjunction with either of the two above variations. You can override the transmit-inhibit state by quick-keying the radio. In other words, two PTT button presses within the preprogrammed time limit.
