Push-To-Talk (PTT) Button
The PTT button on the side of the radio ( ) serves
two basic purposes:
The microphone is activated when the PTT button
is pressed.
— While a call is not in progress, the PTT button is
used to make a new call (see Making a Radio Call

IP Site Connect
This feature allows your radio to extend conventional
communication beyond the reach of a single site, by
connecting to different available sites which are
connected via an Internet Protocol (IP) network.
When the radio moves out of range from one site and
into the range of another, it connects to the new site's
repeater to send or receive calls/data transmissions.
Depending on your settings, this is done
automatically or manually.

programmable button press.
Note: Each channel can only have either Scan or
Roam enabled, not both at the same time.
Channels with this feature enabled can be added to a
particular roam list. The radio searches the channel(s)
in the roam list during the automatic roam operation
to locate the best site.
A roam list supports a maximum of 16 channels
(including the Selected Channel).
Note: You cannot manually add or delete an entry to
the roam list. Check with your dealer or system
administrator for more information.

more information on this configuration.
Linked Capacity Plus
Linked Capacity Plus is a multi-site multi-channel
trunking configuration of the MOTOTRBO radio
system, combining the best of both Capacity Plus and
IP Site Connect configurations.
Linked Capacity Plus allows your radio to extend
trunking communication beyond the reach of a single
site, by connecting to different available sites which
are connected via an Internet Protocol (IP) network. It
also provides an increase in capacity by efficiently

Sending an Emergency Alarm with Call
Advanced Features in Non-Connect...
This feature allows you to send an Emergency Alarm
to a group of radios. Upon acknowledgement by a
radio within the group, the group of radios can
communicate over a programmed Emergency
channel.
If your radio is set to Silent, it will not display any
audio or visual indicators during Emergency mode, or
allow any received calls to sound through the radio’s
speaker, until you press the PTT button to initiate the
call.
When an Emergency Alarm acknowledgment is
received, the Emergency tone sounds and the
LED blinks green. The display shows Alarm Sent.
2 Hold the radio vertically 1 to 2 inches (2.5 to 5.0
cm) from your mouth.
3 Press PTT button to make the call.
The LED lights up solid green and the Group icon
appears on the display.
4 Wait for the Talk Permit Tone to finish (if enabled)
and speak clearly into the microphone.
If your radio is set to Silent with Voice, it will not
display any audio or visual indicators during
Emergency mode, but allow incoming calls to sound
through the radio’s speaker. The indicators will only
appear once you press the PTT button to initiate, or
respond to, the call.
5 Release the PTT button to listen.
If the Channel Free Indication feature is enabled,
you hear a short alert tone the moment the
transmitting radio releases the PTT button,
indicating the channel is free for you to respond.
1 Press the programmed Emergency On button.
6 Press the PTT button to respond.
The display shows Tx Alarm and the destination
alias. The LED lights up solid green and the
Emergency icon appears on the Home screen
display.
92
English
7 Once your call ends, press Emergency Off button
to exit the Emergency mode.
The radio returns to the Home screen.
Sending an Emergency Alarm with Voice to Follow
This activated microphone state is also known as “hot
mic”.
If your radio has Emergency Cycle Mode enabled,
repetitions of hot mic and receiving period are made
for a programmed duration.
Note: During Emergency Cycle Mode, received calls
sound through the radio’s speaker.
If you press the PTT button during the programmed
programmed receiving period, you will hear a prohibit
tone, indicating that you should release the PTT
button. The radio ignores the PTT press and remains
in Emergency mode.
Note: If you press the PTT button during hot mic, and
continue to press it after the hot mic duration expires,
the radio continues to transmit until you release the
PTT button.
Advanced Features in Non-Connect...
This feature allows you to send an Emergency Alarm
to a group of radios. Your radio’s microphone is
automatically activated, allowing you to communicate
with the group of radios without pressing the PTT
button.
If your radio is set to Silent, it will not display any
audio or visual indicators during Emergency mode, or
allow any received calls to sound through the radio’s
speaker, until the programmed hot mic transmission
period is over, and you press the PTT button.
If your radio is set to Silent with Voice, it will not
display any audio or visual indicators during
Emergency mode when you are making the call with
hot mic, but allow sound through the radio’s speaker
when the target radio responds after the programmed
hot mic transmission period is over. The indicators will
only appear when you press the PTT button.
Note: If the Emergency Alarm request fails, the radio
does not retry to send the request, and enters the hot
mic state directly.
1 Press the programmed Emergency On button.
The display shows Tx Alarm and the destination
alias. The LED lights up solid green and the
Emergency icon is displayed.
2 Once the display shows Alarm Sent, speak
clearly into the microphone.
When hot mic has been enabled, the radio
automatically transmits without a PTT press until
the hot mic duration expires. While transmitting,

the LED lights up solid green and the Emergency
icon appears on the display.
Advanced Features in Non-Connect...
3 The radio automatically stops transmitting when
the cycling duration between hot mic and receiving
calls expires, if Emergency Cycle Mode is
enabled.
4 Once the hot mic duration expires, the radio
automatically stops transmitting. To transmit
again, press the PTT button.
Reinitiating an Emergency Mode
Note: This feature is only applicable to the radio
sending the Emergency Alarm.
There are two instances where this can happen:
— You change the channel while the radio is in
Emergency mode. This exits the Emergency
mode. If Emergency Alarm is enabled on this new
channel, the radio reinitiates Emergency.
— You press the programmed Emergency On
button during an Emergency initiation/transmission
state. This causes the radio to exit this state, and
to reinitiate Emergency.
94
English
Exiting Emergency Mode
Note: This feature is only applicable to the radio
sending the Emergency Alarm.
Your radio exits Emergency mode when one of the
following occurs:
— Emergency Alarm acknowledgement is received
(for Emergency Alarm only)
— All retries to send the alarm have been exhausted
— The Emergency Off button is pressed.
Note:
If your radio is powered off, it exits the Emergency
mode. The radio will not reinitiate the Emergency
mode automatically when it is turned on again.
If you change channels when your radio is in
Emergency mode to a channel that has no
emergency system configured, No Emergency is
shown on your display.

Privacy
If enabled, this feature helps to prevent
eavesdropping by unauthorized users on a channel
by the use of a software-based scrambling solution.
The signaling and user identification portions of a
transmission are not scrambled.
Your radio must have privacy enabled on the channel
to send a privacy-enabled transmission, although this
is not a necessary requirement for receiving a
111

Advanced Features in Non-Connect...
transmission. While on a privacy-enabled channel,
the radio is still able to receive clear (unscrambled)
transmissions.
The LED lights up solid green while the radio is
transmitting and blinks green rapidly when the radio is
receiving an ongoing privacy-enabled transmission.
Your radio supports two types of privacy:
You can access this feature by
— Basic Privacy
— Enhanced Privacy.
— Pressing the programmed Privacy button to
toggle privacy on or off.
— Using the Radio Menu as described by the steps
described next.
Only ONE of the privacy types above can be
assigned to the radio.
To unscramble a privacy-enabled call or data
transmission, your radio must be programmed to
have the same Privacy Key (for Basic Privacy), OR
the same Key Value and Key ID (for Enhanced
Privacy) as the transmitting radio.
If your radio receives a scrambled call that is of a
different Privacy Key, OR a different Key Value and
Key ID, you will either hear a garbled transmission
(Basic Privacy) or nothing at all (Enhanced Privacy).
If the radio has a privacy type assigned, the Home
screen shows the Secure or Unsecure icon, except
when the radio is sending or receiving an Emergency
call or alarm.

This feature allows you to use your radio with a
Bluetooth enabled device (accessory) via a wireless
Bluetooth connection. Your radio supports both
Motorola and COTS (Commercially available Off-TheShelf) Bluetooth-enabled devices.
Bluetooth operates within a range of 10 meters (32
feet) line of sight.This is an unobstructed path
between your radio and your Bluetooth-enabled
device.
It is not recommended that you leave your radio
behind and expect your Bluetooth-enabled device to
work with a high degree of reliability when they are
separated.
At the fringe areas of reception, both voice and tone
quality will start to sound “garbled” or “broken”. To
correct this problem, simply position your radio and
Bluetooth-enabled device closer to each other (within
the 10-meter/32 feet defined range) to reestablish
clear audio reception. Your radio’s Bluetooth function
has a maximum power of 2.5 mW (4 dBm) at the 10meter/32 feet range.
Your radio can support up to 3 simultaneous
Bluetooth connections with Bluetooth-enabled
devices of unique types. For example, a headset, a
scanner, and a PTT-Only Device (POD). Multiple
connections with Bluetooth-enabled devices of the
same type are not supported.

Advanced Features in Connect Plus
Mode
Advanced Features in Connect Plus...
Auto Fallback
Auto Fallback is a system feature that allows you to
continue to make and receive non-emergency calls
on the selected Group Contact in the event of certain
types of Connect Plus system failures.
If one of these failures occurs, your radio attempts to
roam to a different Connect Plus site. This search
process may result in your radio finding an operable
Connect Plus site, or it may result in your radio finding
a “Fallback Channel” (if your radio is enabled for Auto
Fallback). A Fallback Channel is a repeater that is
normally part of an operable Connect Plus site, but is
currently unable to communicate with either its site
controller or the Connect Plus network. In Fallback
mode, the repeater operates as a “stand-alone” digital
repeater. Auto Fallback Mode supports nonemergency Group Calls only. No other call types are
supported in Fallback Mode.
170
English
Indications of Auto Fallback Mode
When your radio is using a Fallback channel, you
hear the intermittent “Fallback Tone” approximately
once every 15 seconds (except while transmitting).
The display periodically shows a brief message,
“Fallback Channel”. Your radio only permits PTT on
the selected Group Contact (Group Call, Multigroup
Call, or Site All Call). It does not allow you to make
other types of calls.
Making/Receiving Calls in Fallback Mode
Note:
Calls are heard only by radios that are monitoring the
same Fallback channel and selected to the same
Group. Calls are not networked to other sites or other
repeaters.
Emergency voice calls or Emergency Alerts are not
available in Fallback mode. If you press the
emergency button in Fallback mode, the radio
provides an invalid key press tone. Display-equipped
radios also show the message, “Feature not
available”.
Private (radio to radio) calls are not available in
Fallback mode. If you attempt a call to a private
contact, you will receive a denial tone. At this point
Enhanced Traffic Channel Access (ETCA) is not
supported in Auto Fallback mode. If two or more radio
users press PTT at the same time (or at almost the
same time), it is possible that both radios transmit
until PTT is released. In this event, it is possible that
none of the transmissions will be understood by
receiving radios.
Making calls in Fallback mode is similar to normal
functioning. Simply select the group contact you wish
to use (using the radio’s normal channel selection
method), and then press the PTT to start your call. It
is possible that the channel may be in use already by
another group. If the channel is in use, you receive a
busy tone and the display will say “Channel Busy”.
You may select Group, Multi-group or Site All Call
contacts using your radio’s normal channel selection
method. While the radio is operating on the Fallback
Channel, the Multigroup operates just like other
Groups. It is only heard by radios that are currently
selected to the same Multi-group. Enhanced Privacy
is supported in Fallback mode.
Returning to Normal Operation
Advanced Features in Connect Plus...
you should select a desired group contact. Other nonsupported calls include Remote Monitor, Call Alert,
Radio Check, Radio Enable, Radio Disable, Text
messaging, Location Updates, and packet data calls.
If the site returns to normal trunking operation while
you are in range of your Fallback repeater, your radio
automatically exits Auto Fallback mode. You hear a
registration “beep” when the radio successfully
registers. If you are in the range of an operable site
(that is not in Fallback mode), you may press the
Roam Request button (if programmed for your radio)
to force your radio to search for and register on an
available site. If no other site is available, your radio
returns to Auto Fallback mode after searching is
complete. If you drive out of coverage of your
Fallback repeater, your radio enters Search mode
(display indicates “Searching”).
Radio Check
If enabled, this feature allows you to determine if
another radio is active in a system without disturbing
the user of that radio. No audible or visual notification

Responding to a Transmission During a Scan
174
During scanning, your radio stops on a channel/group
where activity is detected. The radio stays on that
channel for a programmed time period known as
“hang time”.
English
2 Press the PTT button during hang time.
The LED lights up solid green.
User Configurable Scan
If the Edit List menu is enabled, a user is able to Add
and Remove the scan members from the Add
Member menu. A Scan List member must be a
regular Group Contact (i.e. not Multi-group or Site All
Call/Network Wide All Call) that is currently assigned
to a Channel Selector position in a Connect Plus
Zone with the same Network ID as the currently
selected Zone. The Talkgroup's Alias must also not
match any Talkgroup that is already included in the
current Zone's Scan List.
This feature functions only when the radio is not
currently involved in a call. If you are presently
listening to a call, your radio cannot scan for other
group calls, and is therefore unaware they are in
progress. Once your call is finished, your radio
returns to the control channel time slot and is able to
scan for groups that are in the scan list.
Turning Scan On or Off
Note: This procedure turns the Scan feature On or
Off for all zones with the same Network ID as your
currently selected zone. It is important to note that
even when the Scan feature is turned on via this
procedure, scan may still be disabled for some (or all)
groups on your scan list. See the next section for
more information.
If Scan is turned on, the Scan icon appears on your
display. When Scan is on and you are not
participating in a call, the LED blinks green and
yellow.
The procedure for turning Scan on or off depends on
how your radio is programmed. If programmed with a
Scan On/Off button, use the button to toggle the
feature on or off. If your radio has been programmed
so that Scan can be turned on or off via the menu,

Editing the Scan List
Note: If the scan list entry happens to be the radio’s
currently selected group, the radio listens for activity
on this group regardless of whether the list entry
currently shows a check mark or not. Whenever a
radio is not in a call, the radio listens for activity on its
Selected Group, Multigroup, the Site All Call, and its
Default Emergency Revert Group (if configured for
one). This operation cannot be disabled.

Your scan list determines which groups can be

Group, the check mark is removed before the Group
name.
Understanding Scan Operation
Note: If you scan into a call for a group that is not
assigned to a channel position in your currently
selected zone and you miss the call’s Hang Time, you
have to switch to the proper zone and then select the
group’s channel position to talk back to that group.
There are some circumstances in which you can miss
calls for groups that are in your scan list. When you
miss a call for one of the following reasons, this does
not indicate a problem with your radio. This is a
normal scan operation for Connect Plus.
Contacts Settings
Note:
You can add, or edit subscriber IDs for Digital
Contacts. Deleting subscriber IDs can only be
performed by your dealer.
If the Privacy feature is enabled on a channel, you
can make a privacy-enabled voice call on that
channel. Only target radios with the same Privacy
Key OR the same Key Value and Key ID as your
radio are able to unscramble the transmission.
Contacts provide “address-book” capabilities on your

you use to initiate a call.
Each zone provides a Contact List with up to 100
contacts. The following contact types are available:

Emergency Operation
Note:
If your radio is programmed for “Silent” or “Silent with
voice” emergency initiation, in most cases it
185
English
Advanced Features in Connect Plus...
automatically exits silent operation after the
Emergency Call or Emergency Alert is finished. The
exception to this rule is when “Emergency Alert” is the
configured Emergency Mode and “Silent” is the
configured Emergency Type. If your radio is
programmed in this manner, the silent operation
continues until you cancel silent operation by
pressing PTT or the button configured for
“Emergency Off”.
Emergency voice calls and Emergency Alerts are not
supported when operating in Connect Plus Auto
Fallback mode. For more information see the Auto
Fallback on page 170.
An Emergency Alert is used to indicate a critical
situation. You can initiate an Emergency at any time
on any screen display, even when there is activity on
the current channel. Pressing the Emergency button
initiates the programmed Emergency mode. The
programmed Emergency mode may also be initiated
by triggering the optional Man Down feature. The
Emergency feature may be disabled in your radio.
Your dealer can set the duration of a button press for
the programmed Emergency button, except for long
press, which is similar with all other buttons:
186
English
— Short press – Between 0.05 seconds and 0.75
seconds.
— Long press – Between 1.00 second and 3.75
seconds.
The Emergency button is assigned with the
Emergency On/Off feature. Check with your dealer for
the assigned operation of the Emergency button.
— If short Emergency button short press is assigned
to Emergency On, then Emergency button long
press is assigned to Emergency Off.
— If Emergency button short press is assigned to
Emergency On, then Emergency button short
press is assigned to Emergency Off.
When your radio is selected to a Connect Plus zone,
it supports three Emergency modes:
— Emergency Call – You must press the PTT button
to talk on the assigned emergency time slot.
— Emergency Call with Voice to Follow – For the
first transmission on the assigned emergency time
slot, the microphone is automatically unmuted and
you may talk without pressing the PTT button. The
microphone stays “hot” in this fashion for a time
period programmed into the radio. For subsequent
Only ONE of the Emergency Modes can be assigned
to the Emergency button per zone. In addition, each
Emergency mode has the following types:
— Regular – Radio initiates an Emergency and
shows audio and/or visual indicators.
— Silent – Radio initiates an Emergency without any
audio or visual indicators. The radio will suppress
all audio or visual indications of the Emergency
until you press the PTT button to start a voice
transmission.
— Silent with Voice – The same as Silent operation,
except that the radio will also unmute for some
voice transmissions.
Receiving an Incoming Emergency
Advanced Features in Connect Plus...
transmissions in the same Emergency call, you
must press the PTT button.
— Emergency Alert – An Emergency Alert is not a
voice call. It is an emergency notification that is
sent to radios that are configured to receive these
alerts. The radio sends an emergency alert via the
control channel of the currently registered site.
The Emergency Alert is received by radios in the
Connect Plus network that are programmed to
receive them (no matter which network site they
are registered to).
Your radio may be programmed to sound an alert
tone and also display information about the incoming
Emergency. If so programmed, upon receiving the
incoming Emergency, the display shows the
Emergency Details screen with the emergency icon,
the Alias or ID of the radio that requested the
Emergency, the Group Contact being used for the
Emergency, and one additional line of information.
The additional information is the name of the zone
that contains the Group Contact.
At the present time, the radio displays only the most
recently decoded Emergency. If a new Emergency is
received before the prior Emergency is cleared, the
details for the new Emergency replace the details of
the previous Emergency.
Depending on how your radio has been programmed,
the Emergency Details screen (or Alarm List screen)
will stay on your radio’s display even after the
Emergency ends. You can save the emergency
details to the Alarm List, or you can delete the
emergency details as described in the following
sections.

Responding to an Emergency Alert
Note: The Group contact used for the Emergency
Alert should not be used for voice communication.
This could prevent other radios from sending and
receiving Emergency Alerts on the same group.
An Emergency Alert from a radio indicates that the
user is in an urgent situation. You may respond to the
alert by initiating a private call to the radio who
declared the emergency, initiating a group call to a
designated talk group, sending the radio a Call Alert,
initiating a Remote Monitor of that radio, etc. The
proper response is determined by your organization
and the individual situation.
Advanced Features in Connect Plus...
All radios that are monitoring this group hear your
transmission.
Initiating an Emergency Call
Note:
If your radio is set to Silent, it does not display any
audio or visual indicators during Emergency mode
until you press the PTT button to initiate a voice
transmission.
If your radio is set to Silent with Voice, it does not
initially display any audio or visual indicators that the
radio is in Emergency mode. However, your radio unmutes for the transmissions of radios responding to
your emergency. The emergency indicators only
appear once you press the PTT button to initiate a
voice transmission from your radio.
For both “Silent” and “Silent with Voice” operation, the
radio automatically exits silent operation after the
Emergency Call is finished.

Initiating an Emergency Call with Voice to Follow
Your radio must be programmed for this type of
operation.
When enabled for this operation, when you press the
programmed Emergency button, and when your
radio receives the time slot assignment, the
microphone is automatically activated without
pressing the PTT button. This activated microphone
state is also known as “hot mic”. The “hot mic” applies

the Emergency call. For subsequent transmissions in
the same Emergency call, you must press the PTT
button.

During this time, the LED lights up green.
4 Press and hold the PTT button to talk longer than
the programmed duration.
Initiating an Emergency Alert
Note: If your radio is programmed for “Silent” or
“Silent with Voice”, it will not provide any audio or
visual indications that it is sending an Emergency
Alert. If programmed for “Silent”, the silent operation
continues indefinitely until you press PTT or the
button configured for “Emergency Off”. If programmed
for “Silent with Voice”, the radio automatically cancels

Privacy
If enabled, this feature helps to prevent
eavesdropping by unauthorized users on a channel
by the use of a software-based scrambling solution.
The signaling and user identification portions of a
transmission are not scrambled.
The LED lights up solid green while the radio is
transmitting and blinks green rapidly when the radio is
receiving an ongoing privacy-enabled transmission.
Your radio must have privacy enabled on the current
channel selector position to send a privacy-enabled
transmission, although this is not a necessary
requirement for receiving a transmission. While on a
privacy-enabled channel selector position, the radio is
still able to receive clear (unscrambled)
transmissions.
— Pressing the programmed Privacy button to
toggle privacy on or off.
— Using the Radio Menu as described by the steps
described next.
Your radio supports Enhanced Privacy.
To unscramble a privacy-enabled call transmission,
your radio must be programmed to have the same
Key Value and Key ID (for Enhanced Privacy) as the
transmitting radio.

the Privacy feature enabled for the currently selected
channel position to send a privacy-enabled
transmission. When privacy is enabled for the
currently selected channel position, all voice
transmissions made by your radio will be scrambled.
This includes Group Call, Multigroup Call, talk-back
during scanned calls, Site All Call, Emergency Call,

This feature allows you to use your radio with a
Bluetooth enabled device (accessory) via a wireless
Bluetooth connection. Your radio supports both
Motorola and COTS (Commercially available Off-TheShelf) Bluetooth-enabled devices.
Bluetooth operates within a range of 10 meters (32
feet) line of sight.This is an unobstructed path
between your radio and your Bluetooth-enabled
device.
It is not recommended that you leave your radio
behind and expect your Bluetooth-enabled device to
work with a high degree of reliability when they are
separated.
At the fringe areas of reception, both voice and tone
quality will start to sound “garbled” or “broken”. To
correct this problem, simply position your radio and
Bluetooth-enabled device closer to each other (within
the 10-meter/32 feet defined range) to reestablish
clear audio reception. Your radio’s Bluetooth function
has a maximum power of 2.5 mW (4 dBm) at the 10meter/32 feet range.
Your radio can support up to 4 simultaneous
Bluetooth connections with Bluetooth-enabled
devices of unique types. For example, a headset, and
a PTT-Only Device (POD). Multiple connections with
Bluetooth-enabled devices of the same type are not
supported.

Connect Plus provides the ability to update certain
files (Option Board Codeplug, Network Frequency
File and Option Board Firmware File) over-the-air.
Note: Check with the dealer or network administrator
to determine whether this feature has been enabled
for your radio.
Any display Connect Plus radio has the ability to
show its current Option Board OTA Codeplug CRC,
Frequency File version or Option Board firmware file
version via a menu option. In addition, display radios
that have been enabled for over-the-air file transfer
can display the version of a "pending file". A "pending
file" is a Frequency File or Option Board firmware file
that the Connect Plus radio knows about via system
messaging, but the radio has not yet collected all of
the file’s packets. If a display Connect Plus radio has
a pending file, the menu provides options to:
— See the version number of the pending file
— See what percentage of packets has been
collected so far
Advanced Features in Connect Plus...
Checking for Updates
— Request the Connect Plus radio to resume
collecting file packets
If the radio is enabled for Connect Plus over-the-air
file transfer, there may be times when the radio
automatically joins a file transfer without first notifying
the radio user. While the radio is collecting file
packets, the LED rapidly blinks red and the radio
displays the High Volume Data icon on the Home
Screen status bar.
Note: The Connect Plus radio cannot collect file
packets and receive calls at the same time. If you
wish to cancel the file transfer, press and release the
PTT button. This causes the radio to request a call on
the selected Contact Name, and it will also cancel the
file transfer for that radio until the process resumes at
a later time.
There are several things that can make the file
transfer process start again. The first example applies
to all over-the-air file types. The other examples apply
only to the Network Frequency File and Option Board
Firmware File:
— The radio system administrator re-initiates the
over-the-air file transfer.
239
English
Advanced Features in Connect Plus...
— The Option Board's pre-defined timer expires,
which causes the Option Board to automatically
resume the process of collecting packets.
— The timer has not yet expired, but the radio user
requests the file transfer to resume via the menu
option.
the Connect Plus Option Board to reset the radio.
Once the upgrade starts, the radio use will not be
able to make or receive calls until the process is
completed.
After the Connect Plus radio finishes downloading all
file packets, it must upgrade to the newly acquired
file. For the Network Frequency File, this is an
automatic process and does not require a radio reset.
For the Option Board Codeplug File, this is an
automatic process that will cause a brief interruption
to service as the Option Board loads the new
codeplug information and re-acquires a network site.
How quickly the radio upgrades to a new Option
Board firmware file depends on how the radio has
been configured by the dealer or system
administrator. The radio will either upgrade
immediately after collecting all file packets, or it will
wait until the next time that the user turns the radio
on.
Note: If the Option Board firmware file is not Up to
Date (and if the radio has partially collected a more
recent Option Board firmware file version) the radio
displays a list with additional options; Version,
%Received, and Download.
Note: Check with your dealer or system administrator
to determine how your radio has been programmed.
