Your GPS Enabled 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. 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 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. Advanced Features This feature, also known as OTAR, allows the dispatcher to reprogram the encryption keys in the radio remotely. The dispatcher performs the rekey operation upon receiving a rekey request from the user. Understanding the GPS Feature The GPS technology uses radio signals from earth orbiting satellites, to establish the location co-ordinates, maximizing your view of clear 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: • In underground locations • Inside of buildings, trains, or other covered vehicles 71 English • Under any other metal or concrete roof or structure Enhancing GPS Performance • Between tall buildings or under dense tree-cover 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. • 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 emergency situation, always report your location to your dispatcher. Advanced Features Note: To maximize the ability of your radio to determine a fix, please note the following guidelines: • For your initial fix, hold the radio in the face position. Even where adequate signals from multiple satellites are available, your GPS feature only provides an approximate location, usually within meters from your actual location, but sometimes further away. • Stay in the open. The GPS feature works best where there is 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. 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. Note: This feature is only available when a location enabled accessory such as the GPS Antenna is used. 72 English 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. nothing between your radio and a large amount of open sky.

If a trunking system fails completely, the radio goes into failsoft operation and automatically switches to its failsoft channel. The failsoft condition is indicated by a faint beeping tone every nine seconds (radio unsquelched) until the trunking system returns to normal operation. To continue, in Failsoft, to communicate with other talkgroups, refer to the following procedure. Procedure: 1 Rotate the Channel knob to change to a different repeater frequency. 2 Press the PTT button to talk, and release the button to listen. When the trunking system returns to normal operation, your radio automatically leaves failsoft operation and returns to trunked operation. SmartZone® OUT OF RANGE when your radio goes out of the range of the system, it can no longer lock onto a control channel.

Trunked Announcement The announcement capability allows you to make announcements to the entire user group, as well as monitor talkgroup calls and other announcements. Announcement calls are handled in two different ways, depending on the trunked central controller configuration. The two types are called ruthless and non-ruthless preemption. • Ruthless Preemption: Transmitting radios continue to transmit until the PTT button is released, at which time they also unmute for the announcement call. Individual calls (Private Conversation and telephone interconnect) are not affected. • Non-Ruthless Preemption: When a non-ruthless preemption announcement is initiated, the initiating unit receives a telephone-type busy tone, followed by a call back when all associated talkgroup conversations end. Once an announcement call is pending, any attempts by other users to initiate a talkgroup call will result in a telephone-type busy tone. These users will not receive a call back until the announcement call is complete. 2 Press the microphone PTT button to initiate the announcement.
