 Monitoring a Channel
Use the Monitor feature to make sure a channel is clear before
transmitting.
This digital technology quiets the transmission by removing the
“noise” from the signal and allows only the clear voice or data
information to be heard.
Radio users who switch from analog to digital radios often
assume that the lack of static on a digital channel is an
indication that the radio is not working properly. This is not the
case.

an interruption (for example mode change, DSR switch over,
power loss) the radio is capable of restoring the active session
in its current state as long as the session is active in the server.
Your user name, unit ID and password all need to be
provisioned in PremierOne™. Your user account in PremierOne
needs to be linked to an RSA account specifying a token to be
used with the Two-Factor passcode.

 Understanding 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.
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

information (and the amount of time that it takes to calculate it)
varies depending on the environment in which you are using the

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.
Note:
The satellites used by the GPS feature are controlled
by the U.S. government and are subject to changes
implemented in accordance with the Department of
Defense GPS user policy and the Federal Radio
Navigation Plan. These changes may affect the
performance of the GPS feature on your radio.
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:
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.

If you try to transmit on an active smart-PTT channel, you hear
an alert tone, and the transmission is inhibited. The LED lights
up solid yellow to indicate that the channel is busy.
When smart PTT is enabled in your radio, you cannot transmit
on an active channel.
Smart PTT is a per-personality, programmable feature used in
conventional radio systems to keep radio users from talking
over other radio conversations.
(Conventional Only)
 Using the Smart PTT Feature
Your radio’s ID number is also automatically sent every time the
PTT button is pressed. This is a per-channel feature. For digital
voice transmissions, your radio’s ID is sent continuously during

This feature allows you to see the radio ID (number) of the radio
from whom you are currently receiving a transmission. This ID,
consisting up to a maximum of eight characters, can be viewed
by both the receiving radio and the dispatcher.
