BATTERY FEATURES
RADIO OVERVIEW
DLR Series radios provide standard
Lithium-Ion batteries.
English
Note:
Batteries with different capacities and
operational life may be available in future.
About the Li-Ion Battery
The DLR Series radio comes equipped with a
rechargeable Li-Ion battery. This battery should
be fully charged before initial use to ensure
optimum capacity and performance.
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
12
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.

CHECKING BATTERY STATUS
Note:
The four levels available for battery status
are : High, Medium, Low and Critical.
TRANSMITTING AND RECEIVING
•
To receive, listen through the speaker.
•
To respond or to talk, press the PTT (Push to
Talk) and WAIT to hear the Talk Permit Tone
(TPT) BEFORE you start speaking. Hold the
radio vertically 1 to 2 inches (2.5cm to 5cm)
from mouth when talking. Release the PTT to
listen.
•
The Tx/Rx Indicator blinks slowly RED when
on standby. When the radio is transmitting, the
Tx/Rx Indicator is solid RED.
•
When the radio is receiving, the Tx/Rx
Indicator LED blinks RED quickly.
IMPORTANT:When talking on the radio, make sure
not to release the PTT button at any
given time. Whether you are
transmitting using the PTT button or
using an in-line PTT on the earpiece
accessory, always ensure the PTT
button is pressed firmly until the
transmission is finished. Releasing the
PTT button while transmitting and trying
to immediately press the PTT button
again causes the radio to give a loud
denial tone. Wait for 2 seconds and
press PTT again to continue speaking.
If you press the PTT button to transmit
and a busy tone is received instead of a
TPT, this means the channel is either
not available, busy or there are no users
reachable within transmission range.
Talk Permit Tone (TPT)
GETTING STARTED
To check the battery status, short press the
power button. Refer to “Battery Status
Information” on page 17 for more information.
TPT is a quick distinctive double beep tone that
sounds after the user presses the PTT button,
indicating the channel is free to talk. TPT is
useful in ensuring orderly communications by
preventing radios from transmitting over
ongoing conversations.
Always wait to hear the TPT before starting to
speak to ensure your words are not cut off.

FEATURES
The DLR radio Top Button is programmed by
default as “Private Reply”. Push the Top Button
to capture the radio ID of the person currently
talking to your group and right after the
transmission is over, push the PTT button to
talk privately to that person.
The use of this feature reduces the need for
phone extensions or cell phone calls to talk
privately. Simply call on the radio the name of
the person you want to talk to privately. When
he or she responds to you, push the Private
Reply button (Top Button) and then press the
PTT button to initiate the one to one private
conversation.
Private Reply helps users free the radio
channel from unnecessary back and forward
chatter by allowing two people to instantly
connect privately after a group transmission is
over.

FEATURES
DIRECT CALL
English
The Direct Call Feature allows a user to call
another pre-determined user that has been
mapped into the radio Top Button one-on-one
privately (this feature needs to be
pre-programmed via CPS*). Users also have
the option to assign the Direct Call feature to
any radio channel instead of the Top Button.
This allows the radio Top Button to be available
for other radio features (e.g.: Private Reply or
Mute) and Direct Call to be set up in a special
channel. (You can set up different direct calls in
different channels).
Note:
In order to set up the Direct Call function for
the first time in your radio, (either Top Button
or to a specific channel ) you need to use
the CPS (Customer Programming Software)
which is available for free download at
www.motorolasolutions.com/DLR. Once in
the CPS, you must read and upload the
radio IDs (identified in CPS as “privates”)
into the CPS in order to enable Direct Call
and assign direct calls to specific radios.

Refer to “Customer Programming Software
(CPS)” on page 83 for more information.

How exactly does Private Reply work?
What happens if I want to end the call during a
Private Call or Direct Call conversation?
If you are the user who initiated the Private
Reply or Direct Call, you can end the call by
English
long pressing the Top Button. However, if you
are the call receiver, you will have to wait for
the radio to time out (i.e. no communications
detected for more than 7 seconds) OR change
the channel.
62
If I press the Top Button (either for Private
Reply or Direct Call) and I forgot that I wanted
to talk privately and I did not push the PTT
button:
–
Would I be still able hear the group
conversations in my channel if I don’t press
the PTT button?
–
How long do I have to talk privately to User B?
There is no time restriction on how long you
can take to press the PTT button to talk
privately to user A, as long as your Top Button
LED indicator is blinking.
–
Does the radio gives me any alert to know that
I am in still in the private queue mode?
Yes. While waiting in queue to talk privately,
you will receive a call reminder tone after 1
minute of being in queue, followed by another
reminder tone 4 minutes after that. No other
reminder will be heard afterwards, but you will
remain in queue until Private Reply mode is
exited.
–
How do I respond to group conversation if I
have already pushed the Top Button (for either
Private Reply or Direct Call) and my Top button
LED indicator is blinking?
10.
What happens if I am in queue to talk privately
(LED indicator blinking orange), then the
person that was transmitting finished talking
and I press the PTT button to talk but the Top
Button LED indicator does not change to solid
orange?
The radio lets you know you are ready for a
private communication by turning the Top
Button LED indicator to solid orange and
playing the voice prompt “private” in the
beginning. During the private conversation it
also plays a distinctive Talk Permit Tone. All
these different prompts from the radio need to
happen to ensure there is a private
communication established. If you do not have
these prompts, it means you do not have
private communication established and you
need to try again.

How do I know when the radio is no longer in
CALL ALL AVAILABLE
Private Mode conversation?
Note:
You are no longer in a private conversation if
the Top Button LED indicator is not illuminating
solid orange and is either blinking or switched
off instead. Furthermore, the radio plays the
voice prompt: “Private Over”.
Note:
Remember that the Private Reply and the
Direct Call time out after 7 seconds of
inactivity in which both users are sent back
to the group call mode (Radio plays the
voice prompt “Private Over” and the Top
Button LED indicator goes off).
This feature is useful for users with more
than 1 or 2 channels.
Call All Available feature allows the ability to
communicate a message to all available radio
users at once in a temporary “super channel
group”, without having to change through each
channel individually. Call All Available is a
group call to ALL users available in different
channels and users who are not currently tied
up in an ongoing radio conversation(*).
Any user who wants to respond to a Call All
Available transmission can do so the same way
they do when talking on a standard group
conversation (by pressing the PTT button
before talking).
If someone initiates a Call All Available
transmission, all users engaged in the Call All
Available will have their Top Button disabled
(no Private Reply or Direct Call allowed during
this period)
English
64
Call All Available option can be assigned either
to the Top Button or to an extra channel(**).
(*) This feature does NOT interrupt ongoing
communications.
(**) Use CPS to assign Call All Available to a specific
channel.
Application Example
An employee in a retail shop uses a DLR1060
(6 channel radio) with the Top Button
programmed to Call All Available. This
employee is trying to check if anyone took the
backroom scanner. The employee presses the
Top Button followed by the PTT button and
asks “Does anybody know who has the
backroom scanner?”. Anyone, irrespective of
their channel, who is not already part of
another conversation, will hear this call and can
talk back to the whole group of users (who are
tied up in the super channel group call) and
provide the needed information.
65
SPECIAL RADIO CALL
FEATURES
The DLR radio times out a Call All Available
communication after 4 seconds of inactivity.
This is to avoid all users being tied up

Application Example 2
An employee in a retail shop uses a DLR1060
(6 channel radio) with the Top Button
programmed to Private Reply and Channel 6
programmed to Page All Available feature. This
employee is looking for anyone (in any of the
group radio channels) who can come over to
help out in the back room. The employee
changes to the Page All Available channel
before pressing the PTT button and asks “Can
someone come over to the back room to help
out?”. Whoever is available in any of the radio
channels can privately reply to the employee to
ask for more details or to confirm that they are
available to help.
Anna needs to talk privately to another user
(John) and she is not sure in which channel to
find him. It is cumbersome to browse all
channels to search for John. Anna uses a
DLR1060 (6 channel radio) with the Top Button
programmed to Private Reply and Channel 6
programmed to Page All Available feature. She
switches to Channel 6 and asks “John Smith,
are you available?”

If John is available, he can reply privately (by
pressing the Top Button). If no response is
heard, it means he is busy in another radio call

Setting up the radio to the CPS
The easiest way to program or change features
in your radio is by using the Customer
Programming Software (CPS) and the CPS
Programming Cable(*). CPS Software is
available for free as web based downloadable
software at:
www.motorolasolutions.com/DLR
To program, connect the DLR Series radio via
the Drop-in Charger Tray and CPS
Programming Cable to your computer as
shown in the picture above. Prior to
programming, verify that the switch in the
Programming Cable is in the ‘Digital(**)’
position.
CPS allows you to easily program features
such as Direct Call, Radio Menu Options,
Private Groups, Direct Contacts, Channel
announcements, etc. It also gives you the
flexibility to prevent radio features to be
accidentally modified by users, by providing the
option to disable functionalities like Factory
Reset, Advanced Configuration Mode, etc. It
also provides security by giving the option to
set up a password for profile radio’s
management. For more information, refer to
