The Lithium-Ion (Li-Ion) Battery RM Series radios include a standard capacity battery. Other batteries may be available. For more information, see “Battery Features” on page 14. This User Guide covers multiple RM Series models, and may detail some features your radio does not have. The radio’s model is shown at the bottom of the radio. RADIO OVERVIEW 13 English 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. 15 English Installing the Lithium-Ion (Li-Ion) Battery Removing the Lithium-Ion (Li-Ion) Battery 1.

When the radio detects a transmission, it will stop scanning and will receive on the active channel. This will allow you to listen and talk to people on that channel without having to change channel. If there is are transmissions on another channel once the radio has stopped scanning then you will not hear that activity. After activity has ceased on the channel which the radio has stopped, scanning will resume again after 5 seconds of no activity on that channel. • To start scanning, press the SBx (x=1 or 2) button (Scan is defaulted on SB2 but can be programmed to either SB1 or SB2 via CPS). When the radio detects channel activity, it will stop on that channel until the activity ends. You can respond to the caller on that channel without having to switch channels by pressing PTT. 46 • To stop scanning, short press the SBx button again. • By pressing the PTT button while the radio is scanning, the radio will transmit on the channel which was selected before Scan was activated. If no transmission occurs within five seconds, scanning will resume. • If you want to scan a channel without Interference Eliminator Codes (CTCSS/DPL), set the code settings for the channels to ‘0’ in the CTCSS/DPL Programming Selection Mode. Whenever the radio is set up in Scan, the LED Indicator will signal a Fast Red Heartbeat. To delete a channel from the Scan List: Scan Lists can be edited by using the CPS (refer to CPS section on page 46) • To start scanning, press the SBx (x=1 or x=2) button (Scan has to be programmed to either SB1 or SB2 via CPS). SB2 by default programmed to Scan/Nuisance Channel Delete • Wait until the radio stops on the channel you wish to eliminate, then long press the SBx button to delete it. (Cannot delete home channel - the channel that the user enables scan on). • The channel will not be scanned again until you exit Scan by short pressing the SBx button again or by turning the radio OFF and back ON. Nuisance Channel Delete Nuisance Channel Delete allows you to temporarily remove channels from the Scan List. This feature is useful when frequent, irrelevant conversations on a channel tie up the scanning feature, becoming a nuisance to the user. 47 PROGRAMMING FEATURES Editing Scan List English CPS (COMPUTER PROGRAMMING SOFTWARE) To program, connect the RM Series radio via the Drop-in Charger Tray and CPS PROGRAMMING FEATURES Programming Cable as shown in the picture above. (Need to select CPS mode on the cable switch). The easiest way to program or change features in your radio is by using the Computer Programming Software (CPS) and the CPS Programming Cable(*). CPS Software is available for free as web based downloadable software at: www.motorolasolutions.com/RMseries English 48 CPS allows the user to program frequencies, PL/DPL codes, as well as other features such 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 Programming to avoid accidentally erasing the current radio settings. It also provides security by giving the option to set up a password for radio profile management. Please refer to Features Summary Chart Section at the end of the user guide for more details. Note: (*) CPS Programming Cable P/N HKKN4027A is an accessory sold separately. Please contact your Motorola point of purchase for more information. Time-Out Timer Scramble This timer sets the amount of time that the radio can continuously transmit before transmission is automatically terminated. The default setting is 60 seconds and can be changed using the CPS. The Scramble feature makes transmissions sound garbled to anyone listening without the same code. Scramble default value is OFF. The Scramble feature should be programmed to SB1 or SB2, If the scramble code need to be changed during radio's normal operation. Power Select Call Tones Call Tones feature allows you to transmit an audible tone to other radios on the same channel and alerting them that you are about to talk or alerting them without speaking. The call tones feature must be programmed to SB1 or SB2 and 1 of 3 pre-recorded tones selected Reverse Burst PROGRAMMING FEATURES Power Select allows you to select between high and low transmission power per channel. The power levels for RM Series toggle between 2W and 1W. Reverse Burst eliminates unwanted noise (squelch tail) during loss of carrier detection. You can select values of either 180 or 240 to be compatible with other radios. Default is 180. Notes: • The features described in previous pages • Some of the features available with the CPS software may vary depending on the radio model. are just some of the features CPS has. CPS offers more capabilities. For more information refer to the HELP file in the CPS. 49 English PROGRAMMING FEATURES Weather Channel English 50 Weather Channel (Cont.) PROGRAMMING FEATURES The channel position 8 on all RM Series radios with channel selector knob is configured at the factory as a NOAA Weather Radio. The NOAA Weather Radio feature can be disabled or configured to any of the other available channel positions via the Customer Programming Software or in Advanced Configuration Mode. When a channel that has the NOAA Weather Radio enabled is selected, the RM radio generates a voice announcement indicating channel and weather frequency number, e.g. "Channel 8: Weather 1". The weather frequency number announced is which of the 7 NOAA national frequencies is currently tuned in the weather radio. The weather frequency can be changed while in the Weather Channel by Pressing SB2 to enter Weather menu then SB1 acts as up button and SB2 acts down button. Also, PTT acts as menu button to advance to channel menu or weather alert menu. NOAA Weather Alert The RM Series radio is capable of monitoring the NOAA frequency for any Alerts issued by the National Weather Service. When the weather alert feature is enabled the radio will "mute" the daily weather radio, you can then move the channel position to a standard two way radio frequency and continue normal communication. The Weather Alert allows the radio to "listen" for a Warning Alarm Tone (WAT) from the National Weather Service. If a WAT is detected the weather radio will "un-mute" and the message being broadcasted will be heard on the RM radio. If the RM radio is tuned to a two-way channel (normal operation + weather alert on) when a WAT is detected, the radio will "un-mute" and the message being broadcasted will be heard. While monitoring an alert, pressing the PTT or changing channels will exit the weather alert and go back to normal operation. Please note that using the Weather Alert feature will impact normal battery life. CLONING RADIOS You can clone RM Series radio profiles from one Source radio to a Target radio by using any one of these 3 methods: • Using a Multi Unit Charger (optional accessory), • Two Single Unit Chargers (SUC) and a Radio-toRadio cloning cable (optional accessory), the CPS (free software download) and CPS programming cable (optional accessory). Cloning with a Multi Unit Charger (MUC) a Target radio (the radio which profile will be cloned from the source radio.)
