message sizes and update rates from different applications.

Install Enhanced Data to the Integrated Data system with a

software installation to improve data channel efficiency and

enable denser network traffic.

Dynamic System Resilience (DSR)

DSR seamlessly switches the radio system to a backup master

site during system failures. 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.

Example Description

CrossTalk Prevention

This feature prevents crosstalk scenarios 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 different from the Receiving Frequency. This

subsequently reduces the possibilities of radio frequency

interfering spurs and it also prevents crosstalk.

SecureNet

SecureNet allows user to perform secured communications on

an Analog or Motorola Data Communication (MDC) channel.

What Your Dealer/System Administrator

Can Tell You

Check with your dealer or system administrator for the correct

radio settings, if the radio is to be operated in extreme

temperatures (less than -30 °C or more than +60 °C), to ensure

proper top and front display operation.

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?

The Global Positioning System (GPS)

This feature uses information from the Global Positioning

System (GPS) satellites orbiting the Earth to determine the

approximate geographical location of your radio, expressed as

latitude and longitude or MGRS format per request from

customer. 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 Feature

The 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:

•Underground locations



Advanced Features

English

•Inside of buildings, trains, or other covered vehicles

•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

radio

Even 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

be trapped inside the speaker grille and

microphone port can be removed. Otherwise,

the water will decrease the audio quality of the

radio.

•Do not disassemble the radio. This could

damage radio seals and result in leak paths into

the radio. Any radio maintenance should be

performed only by a qualified radio technician.

Do not use solvents to clean your radio as most

chemicals may permanently damage the radio

housing and texture.

Taking Care of the Battery

Checking the Battery Charge Status

Your radio can indicate the battery’s charge status through:

•the LED and sounds.

•the fuel gauge icon on the display.

You can also check the battery charge status via the menu

entry. See IMPRES™ Battery Annunciator on page 87 for

more information.

LED and Sounds

When your battery is low:

•the LED blinks red when the PTT button is pressed.

•you hear a low-battery “chirp” (short, high-pitched tone).

Fuel Gauge Icon

A blinking fuel gauge icon ( ) is displayed only when the

battery voltage drops to low level. In this case, replace with a

fully charged battery.

*These are for IMPRES battery operation only.
