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 Wednesday, December 5, 2012 11:04 AM
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.

Scenario
Solution
LED indicator on
the radio is not
functioning during
transmit and
receive or any
other operation
The radio might be preprogrammed in
lights off mode in the current channel.
For covert operation, the LEDs can be
preprogrammed to turn off with specific
zones or channels. It is hence
recommended to add key words like
Lights off or Lights on to the zone or
channel Voice Announcements.
No LED feedback
upon turning on
your radio via on/
off switch
First, check your battery by docking it into
the charger. If the battery is good, it might
be the reason that the radio was turned
off at a preprogrammed zone/channel
which the LED lights would not be shown
for covert operation. Change to a zone/
channel that LED lights are enabled.
Meanwhile, ensure you connect an audio
accessory to hear the audio alerts or
transmission.
Cannot connect
with the Bluetooth
accessory
Check the accessory battery and ensure
the battery is still good. Also check the
accessory device is in the pairing mode.

Caring for Your Radio
Caution
• The radio casting has a
Caution
vent port that allows for
pressure equalization in
the radio. Never poke this
vent with any objects,
such as needles,
tweezers, or screwdrivers.
This could create leak
paths into the radio and
the radio’s submergibility
will be lost.
• The radio is designed to be submerged to a
maximum depth of 1 meter, with a maximum
submersion time of 30 minutes. Exceeding
either maximum limit may result in damage to
the radio.
• If the radio battery contact area has been
submerged in water, dry and clean the radio
battery contacts before attaching a battery to the
radio. Otherwise, the water could short-circuit
the radio.
• If the radio has been submerged in water, shake
the radio well so that any water that may be
trapped inside the speaker grille and
microphone port can be removed. Otherwise,
the water will decrease the audio quality of the
radio.
Helpful Tips
• Do not disassemble the radio. This could
