Repeater or Direct Operation
The REPEATER operation increases the radio’s range by
connecting with other radios through a repeater. The transmit
and receive frequencies are different.
General Radio Operation
The DIRECT or “talkaround operation” allows you to bypass the
repeater and connect directly to another radio. The transmit and
receive frequencies are the same.
Procedure:
Press the preprogrammed Repeater/Direct switch to toggle
between talkaround and repeater modes.
OR
Follow the procedure below.
Monitoring Features
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.
Digital technology quiets the transmission by removing the
“noise” from the signal and allowing only the clear voice or data
information to be heard.
Monitor a channel to ensure the channel is clear before
transmitting.

Programming Software. In addition, you can have operatorselectable keys, operator-selectable keysets, and operatorselectable key erasure. If talkgroups are enabled in
conventional, then the encryption keys are strapped to the
talkgroups.
• Trunked Multikey – If you use your radio for both
conventional and trunked applications, you have to strap your
encryption keys for trunking on a per-talkgroup or
announcement-group basis. In addition, you may strap a
different key to other features, such as dynamic regrouping,
failsoft, or emergency talkgroup. You can have operatorselectable key erasure.

does not contain the Unique Shadow Key (USK). This
key must be loaded into the radio with the key-variable
loader (KVL) before the rekey request can be sent.
Refer to your local key management supervisor for
more information.
The Global Positioning System (GPS)
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. 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.
 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
76
English
 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.
Note:
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.
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.
• Stay in the open. The GPS feature works best where there is
nothing between your radio and a large amount of open sky.
 The Outdoor Location Feature (Using GPS)
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:
Your radio stores up to a maximum of sixty (60) programmable
location coordinates, also known as waypoints. When the
memory is full, the next waypoints automatically replaces the
oldest waypoints in the radio.
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.

Trunking System Controls
 Using the Failsoft System
The failsoft system ensures continuous radio communications
during a trunked system failure. 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.
Advanced Features
To continue, in Failsoft, to communicate with other talkgroups,
refer to the following procedure.
Procedure:
1 Rotate the Mode 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.

 Going Out-of-Range
OUT OF RANGE when your radio goes out of the range of the
system, it can no longer lock onto a control channel.
Procedure:
1 A low-pitched tone sounds.
AND/OR
The display shows the currently selected zone/channel
combination and OUT OF RANGE.
2 Your radio remains in this out-of-range condition until:
It locks onto a control channel.
OR
It locks onto a failsoft channel.
OR
It is turned off.
 Locking and Unlocking a Site
The SmartZone® feature extends communications beyond the
reach of a single-trunked site (antenna location) when operating
in a SmartZone system. SmartZone units provide expanded
wide-area coverage.
This feature allows your radio to lock onto a specific site and not
roam among wide-area talkgroup sites. This feature should be
used with caution, since it inhibits roaming to another site in a
wide-area system.
SmartZone automatically switches the radio to a different site
when the current site signal becomes unacceptable. This
usually happens when the vehicle in which the radio is located
is driven out of the range of one site, and into the range of
another.
Procedure:
Use the preprogrammed Site Lock/Unlock button to toggle the
lock state between locked and unlocked.
OR
Follow the procedure below.
Under normal conditions, a SmartZone-enabled radio functions
invisibly to the operator. However, the operator does have some
manual controls on the Control Head – the RSSI menu entry.
This button can be used to check, or change, the SmartZone
operation.

 Initiating an Announcement
The announcement capability allows you to make
announcements to the entire user group, as well as monitor
talkgroup calls and other announcements.
If your radio has been programmed to allow announcement
calls:
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.
1 Press the Mode Knob to locate the announcement-group
• Ruthless Preemption:
When a ruthless preemption announcement call is initiated,
the requesting radio begins transmitting immediately. All
associated talkgroup calls taking place on other channels are

announcement call.
Procedure:
mode.
2 Press the microphone PTT button to initiate the
announcement.
Advanced Features
 Trunked Announcement
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.
