As a personal computer peripheral, this device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. This device complies with

Industry Canada licence-exempt RSS standard(s). Operation is subject to the following two conditions:

1This device may not cause harmful interference, and

2This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.

Note:

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant

to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful

interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency

energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference

to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular in-

stallation.

If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined

by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or

more of the following measures:

• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

•Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.

• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.

• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio or TV technician for help.

Push-To-Talk (PTT) Button

The PTT button on the side of the radio ( ) serves

two basic purposes:

• While a call is in progress, the PTT button allows

the radio to transmit to other radios in the call.

Press and hold the PTT button to talk. Release the

PTT button to listen.

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

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.

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.

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.

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.

Additional Radio Controls in Non-Connect Plus Mode

Capacity Plus

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

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

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

these channels during the automatic roam operation

to locate the best site.

Note:

You cannot manually add or delete an entry to

the roam list. Check with your dealer or

Similar to Capacity Plus, icons of features not

applicable to Linked Capacity Plus are not available

in the menu. You hear a negative indicator tone if you

try to access a feature not applicable to Linked

Capacity Plus via a programmable button press.

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

transmission. While on a privacy-enabled channel,

the radio is still able to receive clear (unscrambled)

transmissions.

Your radio supports two types of privacy:

• Basic Privacy.

•Enhanced Privacy.

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.

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.

Advanced Features in Connect Plus

Mode

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 non-

emergency Group Calls only. No other call types are

supported in Fallback Mode.

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) and Phone calls are not

available in Fallback mode. If you attempt a

Advanced Features in Connect Plus Mode

197

English

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.

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.

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”).

Radio Check

If enabled, this feature allows you to determine if

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.

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

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.

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. If

Scan is enabled the radio will also listen for

activity on enabled Zone Scan List members.

Your scan list determines which groups can be

scanned. The list is created when your radio is

programmed. If your radio has been programmed to

allow you to edit the scan list, you can,

• Enable/disable scan for individual groups on the

list.

•Add and Remove the scan members from the Add

Member menu. Refer to Add or Delete a Group via

the Add Members Menu on page 204.

Note:

A Scan List member must be a regular Group

Contact (i.e. not Multigroup or Site All Call/

name.

Add or Delete a Group via the Add Members

The Connect Plus radio does not allow a duplicate

group number or a duplicate group alias to be placed

on a zone scan list (or to be shown as a “scan

candidate”). Thus, the list of “scan candidates”

described in steps 6 and 7 sometimes changes after

adding or deleting a group from the zone scan list.

If your radio has been programmed to allow you to

edit the scan list, you can use the Add Members

menu to add a group to the scan list of the currently

Zone and Channel of the Scan List Member

and start a new call.

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.

• Scan feature is not turned on (check for the scan

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).

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

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,

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.

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.

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

feature. Check with your dealer or system

administrator for more information.

secure or unsecure icon appears on the status

bar, except when the radio is sending or receiving

an Emergency Alert.

Making a Privacy-Enabled (Scrambled) Call

Toggle privacy on using the programmed privacy

button or by using the menu. Your radio must have

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,

and Private Call. Only receiving radios with the same

Key Value and Key ID as your radio will be able to

unscramble the transmission.

Covert Mode

Your radio is capable of Covert Mode. During covert

mode, all keypad and programmed button access are

blocked. When enabled, all visual indications (display,

LED's and backlight) are disabled.

This feature allows audio or tone only via a wired

Checking for Updates

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.

• 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

Advanced Features in Connect Plus Mode

274

English

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.

•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

immediately after collecting all file packets, or it will
