•
Keep your radio clean and exposure to water
should be avoided to help ensure proper
functionality and performance.
To clean the exterior surfaces of the radio, use a
diluted solution of mild dishwashing detergent and
fresh water (i.e. one teaspoon of detergent to one
gallon of water).
These surfaces should be cleaned whenever a
periodic visual inspection reveals the presence of
smudges, grease, and/or grime.
Caution:
The effects of certain chemicals and their
vapors can have harmful results on certain
plastics. Avoid using aerosol sprays, tuner
cleaners and other chemicals.

Push-To-Talk (PTT) Button
The PTT button on the side of the radio ( ) serves
two basic purposes:
•
While a call is not in progress, the PTT button is
used to make a new call (see Making a Radio Call
on page 51).
If the Talk Permit Tone (see Turning the Talk Permit
Tone On or Off on page 149) is enabled, wait until
the short alert tone ends before talking.
During a call, if the Channel Free Indication feature is
enabled on your radio (programmed by your dealer),
you will hear a short alert tone the moment the target
radio (the radio that is receiving your call) releases
the PTT button, indicating the channel is free for you
to respond.
You will also hear a continuous talk prohibit tone, if
your call is interrupted, indicating that you should
release the PTT button, for example when the radio
receives an Emergency Call.

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.
If the radio is set to do this automatically, it scans
through all available sites when the signal from the
current site is weak or when the radio is unable to
detect any signal from the current site. It then locks
on to the repeater with the strongest Received Signal
Strength Indicator (RSSI) value.

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

Capacity Plus
Additional Radio Controls in Non-Connect Plus Mode
Capacity Plus is a single-site trunking configuration of
the MOTOTRBO radio system, which uses a pool of
channels to support hundreds of users and up to 254
Groups. This feature allows your radio to efficiently
utilize the available number of programmed channels
while in Repeater Mode.
You hear a negative indicator tone if you try to access
a feature not applicable to Capacity Plus via a
programmable button press.
Your radio also has features that are available in
conventional digital mode, IP Site Connect, Capacity
Plus and Linked Capacity Plus. However, the minor
differences in the way each feature works does not
affect the performance of your radio.
Check with your dealer or system administrator for
more information on this configuration.
Linked Capacity Plus
44
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.
English
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
utilizing the combined available number of
programmed channels supported by each of the
available sites.
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.
If the radio is set to do this automatically, it scans
through all available sites when the signal from the
current site is weak or when the radio is unable to
detect any signal from the current site. It then locks
on to the repeater with the strongest Received Signal
Strength Indicator (RSSI) value.
In a manual site search, the radio searches for the
next site in the roam list that is currently in range (but
which may not have the strongest signal) and locks
on to it.
Any channel with Linked Capacity Plus enabled can
be added to a particular roam list. The radio searches

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

Enhanced Privacy.
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

Bluetooth Operation
Note:
If disabled via the CPS, all Bluetooth-related
features are disabled and the Bluetooth device
database is erased.
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 re-establish
•
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.

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 single digital
repeater. Auto Fallback Mode supports nonemergency Group Calls only. No other call types are
supported in Fallback Mode.
Indications of Auto Fallback Mode
Advanced Features in Connect Plus Mode
Advanced Features in Connect Plus
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) and Phone calls are not
available in Fallback mode. If you attempt a
197
English
Advanced Features in Connect Plus Mode
call to a private contact, you will receive a
denial tone. At this point you should select a
desired group contact. Other non-supported
calls include Remote Monitor, Call Alert, Radio
Check, Radio Enable, Radio Disable, Text
messaging, Location Updates, and packet
data calls.
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.
198
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
English
Groups. It is only heard by radios that are currently
selected to the same Multi-group.
Returning to Normal Operation
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”).

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 alias must not match
any Talkgroup that has been included in the current
Zone's Scan List.

English
Scan can be turned on or off from the menu or by
pressing a programmed Scan On/Off button.
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

list. See the next section for more information.
If Scan is turned on, the Scan icon appears on your

Emergency Revert Group (if configured for
one). This operation cannot be disabled. If
Scan is enabled the radio will also listen for

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.
220
An Emergency Alert from a radio indicates that the
user is in an urgent situation. You may respond to the
English
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.
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.

2 Hold the radio vertically 1 to 2 inches (2.5 to 5.0
cm) from your mouth.
When you release the PTT button, the Emergency
call continues for the time allotted for the
Emergency Call Hang Time.
If you press the PTT button during this time, the
Emergency call continues.
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
to the first voice transmission from your radio during
the Emergency call. For subsequent transmissions in

3 The microphone remains active for the “hot mic”
time specified in your radio's codeplug
programming.
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

silent operation when the site controller
broadcasts the Emergency Alert.
Advanced Features in Connect Plus Mode
Press the orange Emergency button.
Upon transmitting the Emergency Alert to the site
controller, the radio’s display shows the
Emergency icon, the Group contact used for the
Emergency Alert, and TX Alarm.
Once the Emergency Alert is successfully sent and is
being broadcast for other radios to hear, a positive
indicator tone sounds and the radio’s display shows
Alarm Sent. If the Emergency Alert is unsuccessful,
a negative indicator tone sounds and the radio
displays Alarm Failed.
Exiting Emergency Mode
Note:
If the Emergency call ends due to the
expiration of the Emergency Hang Time, but
the emergency condition is not over, press the
Emergency button again to restart the
process.
If you initiate an Emergency Alert by pressing the
programmed Emergency button, your radio
222
English
automatically exits Emergency mode after receiving a
response from the Connect Plus system.
If you initiate an Emergency call by pressing the
programmed Emergency button, your radio will be
assigned a channel automatically when one becomes
available. Once your radio has transmitted a
message indicating the emergency, you cannot
cancel your Emergency call. However, if you pressed
the button by accident or the emergency no longer
exists, you may wish to say this over the assigned
channel. When you release the PTT button, the
Emergency call is discontinued after the Emergency
Call Hang Time expires.
If your radio was configured for Emergency with Voice
to Follow, use the “hot mic” period to explain your
error, then press and release the PTT button to
discontinue the transmission. The Emergency call is
discontinued after the Emergency Call Hang Time
expires.

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 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.
If your radio receives a scrambled call that is of a
different Key Value and Key ID, you hear 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.
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.
You can access this feature by performing one of the
following actions:

•
Pressing the programmed Privacy button to
toggle privacy on or off.
Using the Radio Menu as described by the steps
described next.
Note:
Some radio models may not offer this Privacy

Bluetooth Operation
Note:
If disabled via the CPS, all Bluetooth-related
features are disabled and the Bluetooth device
database is erased.
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.
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 re-establish
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.
English
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.
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
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.
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.
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.
Advanced Features in Connect Plus Mode
displays the High Volume Data icon on the Home
Screen status bar.
Note:
Check with your dealer or system
administrator to determine how your radio has
been programmed.
The process of upgrading to a new Option Board
firmware file takes several seconds, and it requires
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.
