How to Use This Guide This User Guide covers the basic operation of the APX Portables. However, your dealer or system administrator may have customized your radio for your specific needs. Check with your dealer or system administrator for more information. Notations Used in This Manual Throughout the text in this publication, you will notice the use of Warning, Caution, and Notice. These notations are used to emphasize that safety hazards exist, and the care that must be taken or observed. WARNING: An operational procedure, practice, or condition and so on, which may result in injury or death if not carefully observed. CAUTION: An operational procedure, practice, or condition and so on, which may result in damage to the equipment if not carefully observed. Send Feedback The following special notations identify certain items. Example Description Home button Buttons and keys are shown in bold print or as an icon. or Phon Menu entries are shown similar to the way they appear on the display of the radio. This means “Press the right side of the 4-Way Navigation Button”. Additional Performance Enhancement The following performance enhancements are some of the latest creations designed to enhance the security, quality, and efficiency of the radios. 25 English ASTRO 25 Enhanced Data SecureNet ASTRO 25 Enhanced Data is optimized to handle different message sizes and variable update rates from different applications of the radio. Add Enhanced Data to the Integrated Data system with a software installation to improve data channel efficiency and enable denser network traffic. SecureNet allows user to perform secured communications on an Analog or Motorola Data Communication (MDC) channel. Dynamic System Resilience (DSR) A few enhancements have been made to the Conventional Talkgroup at the system. These enhancements improve the Scan feature operation significantly when multiple agencies are using a single conventional radio frequency channel. These enhancements allow users to use Selective Squelch to operate on only the subset of talkgroups that are relevant to the users rather than all talkgroups on the channel. These Scan improvements have been made to eliminate the audio holes that were present and to turn on the busy LED when activity is present on the channel. Mixed Vote Scan and Standard Conventional Scan configurations are supported. Priority Operation is also supported. DSR ensures the radio system is seamlessly switched to a backup master site dynamically in case of system failure. DSR also provides additional indication such as 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. Encrypted Integrated Data (EID) EID provides security encryption and authentication of IV&D data bearer service communication between the radio and the Customer Enterprise Network. 26 Conventional Talkgroup and Radio Scan Enhancements Up to 30 different talkgroups can be supported using conventional channels. A maximum of four talkgroups can be supported when Vote Scan channels are being used. Send Feedback English Smart PTT is supported with this enhancement as Smart PTT prevents users from transmitting while other users are on the channel. NOTICE: User Selectable Talkgroups are not compatible with this Conventional Talkgroup Enhancement. NOTICE: Specifications may vary for different radio models. Check with your dealer or system administrator for more information. 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). You can consult your dealer or system administrator about the following: • Is your radio programmed with any preset conventional channels? • Which buttons have been programmed to access other features? • What optional accessories may suit your needs?

Send Feedback English System Setup for ASTRO Advanced Messaging Solution 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. The radio caches the user name, unit ID and or Single Factor password in the codeplug, this allows the radio to automatically log in to use Single Factor authentication upon power up or mode change. The Two-Factor passcode is not stored in the codeplug. You can upgrade the Single Factor session to a Two- Factor session by entering the Two-Factor passcode only. After 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. NOTICE: Power down occurs when the user intentionally powers off the radio, power loss is when the battery dies or is removed from the unit. Two-Factor Authentication Two-Factor Authentication is an extension of existing ARS and TMS operation. This feature allows you to authenticate yourself with a username, unit ID, password, and passcode. This feature allows the sender of a text message to address a specific user of the radio, so the message is delivered to the user, and not anyone else who may have been using the radio at the time. This feature supports query authentication requirements so the query service knows which user originated a query. You can still send text messages without logging in as a user.

Send Feedback Global Positioning System/Global Navigation Satellite System The Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) in the radio uses information from the Global Positioning System (GPS) to determine the approximate geographical location of your radio. The geographical location is expressed as latitude and longitude or Military Grid Reference System (MGRS) format per request from customers. NOTICE: This feature is addressed as GPS across the manual as the naming convention of the buttons and strings remain the same as the legacy feature of GPS. 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 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. 129 English Once GPS is enabled, the radio displays the GPS icon on the screen. The dispatcher can always request the system to determine the real-time location coordinates of the radio. GPS Operation The GPS technology uses radio signals from earth orbiting satellites to establish location coordinates. Therefore, maximizing your view of 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 • Inside buildings, trains, or covered vehicles • Under any 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 130 emergency situation, always report your location to your dispatcher. 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. NOTICE: Even where adequate signals from multiple satellites are available, your GPS feature only provides an approximate location, usually within 10 meters from your actual location, but sometimes farther away. 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. GPS Performance Enhancement Sometimes, the GPS feature may be unable to complete a location calculation successfully. You then see a message indicating that your radio cannot connect to enough visible satellites. Send Feedback English To maximize the ability of your radio to determine a fix, take note of the following guidelines: Programmable Waypoints Preprogrammed Waypoints • For your initial fix, hold the radio in the face position. • Stay in the open. The GPS feature works best where there is nothing between your radio and the open sky. User-configurable location coordinates. Fixed location coordinates: The Outdoor Location Feature (Using GPS) This feature allows you to determine your current location using a location menu, as well as your current distance and bearing in relation to another location. Radio location may be requested and reported over-the-air. Your radio stores up to a maximum of 60 programmable location coordinates, also known as waypoints.
