Handling Precautions
English
7
Handling Precautions
The Andorra Portables radio meets IP55 specifications with
antenna attached, allowing the radio to withstand adverse field
conditions such as being used in rain or dusty environment.
If the radio has been exposed to water or rain, shake the
radio well to remove any water that may be trapped inside the
speaker grille, microphone port and aesthetic cover(if
applicable). Trapped water in speaker grille and microphone
port could cause decreased audio performance. If aesthetic
cover is attached onto radio, trapped water in aesthetic cover
could cause corrosion on the slim connector interface gold
contacts.
If the radio’s battery contact area has been exposed to water,
clean and dry battery contacts on both the radio and the
battery before attaching the battery to the radio. The residual
water could short-circuit the radio.
If the radio has been exposed to corrosive substance
(e.g.saltwater), rinse the radio and battery in fresh water then
dry the radio and battery.
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).
The radio with antenna attached properly is designed to be
protected against dust and low pressure jets of water
projected with nozzle 6.3mm diameter at flow rate of 12.5 l/
min, with water pressure at 30 kN/m2 and from a distance of
2.5m to 3m for at least 3 min. Exceeding either maximum limit
or use without antenna may result in damage to the radio.
When cleaning the radio, do not use a high pressure jet spray
on the radio as this may cause to leak.
Do not disassemble the radio. This could
damage radio seals and result in leak paths into
the radio. Radio maintenance should only be
done in service depot that is equipped to test
and replace the seal on the radio.

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 the Channel Free Indication tone if your
call is interrupted, for example when the radio receives an
Emergency Call.
You can turn off the Channel Free Indication tone or the
PTT Sidetone by disabling all radio tones and alerts

Scan Lists
Scan lists are created and assigned to individual channels/
groups. Your radio scans for voice activity by cycling through
the channel/group sequence specified in the scan list for the
current channel/group.
Your radio can support up to 250 scan lists, with a maximum of
16 members in a list. Each scan list supports a mixture of both
analog and digital entries.
You can add, delete, or prioritize channels by editing a scan list.
You can attach a new scan list to your radio via Front Panel
Programming.
NOTE: This feature is not applicable in Capacity Plus.

Scan
When you start a scan, your radio cycles through the
programmed scan list for the current channel looking for voice
activity.
The LED blinks yellow and the scan icon appears on the status
bar.
During a dual mode scan, if you are on a digital channel, and
your radio locks onto an analog channel, it automatically
switches from digital mode to analog mode for the duration of
the call. This is also true for the reverse.
There are two ways of initiating scan:
Main Channel Scan (Manual): Your radio scans all the
channels/groups in your scan list. On entering scan, your
radio may – depending on the settings – automatically start
on the last scanned “active” channel/group or on the channel
where scan was initiated.
Auto Scan (Automatic): Your radio automatically starts
scanning when you select a channel/group that has Auto
Scan enabled.
NOTE: This feature is not applicable in Capacity Plus.

Vote Scan
Vote Scan provides you with wide area coverage in areas
where there are multiple base stations transmitting identical
information on different analog channels.
Your radio scans analog channels of multiple base stations and
performs a voting process to select the strongest received
signal. Once that is established, your radio unmutes to
transmissions from that base station.
The LED blinks yellow and the vote scan icon appears on the
status bar.
To respond to a transmission during a Vote Scan, follow the
same procedures as Responding to a Transmission During a
Scan on page 32.
Contacts Settings
Contacts provides “address-book” capabilities on your radio.
Each entry corresponds to an alias or ID that you use to initiate
a call.
Each entry, depending on context, associates with one of five
types of calls: Group Call, Private Call, All Call, PC Call or
Dispatch Call.
PC Call and Dispatch Call are data-related. They are only
available with the applications. Refer to the data applications
documentation for more information.
NOTE: If the Privacy feature is enabled on a channel, you
can make privacy-enabled Group Call, Private Call,
and All Call on that channel. Only target radios with
the same Privacy Key OR the same Key Value and
Key ID as your radio will be able to unscramble the
transmission.
See Privacy on page 50 for more information.
Your radio supports two Contacts lists, one for Analog contacts
and one for Digital contacts, with a maximum of 500 members
for each Contacts list.
Each entry within Contacts displays the following information:
Call Type
Call Alias
Call ID

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. (A Software License Key sold separately
is required for this feature.)
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).
The LED lights up solid green while the radio is transmitting and
double blinks green when the radio is receiving an ongoing
privacy-enabled transmission.
Some radio models may not offer this Privacy feature. Check
with your dealer or system administrator for more
information.Procedure:
Press the programmed Privacy button to toggle privacy on or
off.
OR
Follow the procedure below.

OR

If the radio has a privacy type assigned, secure or unsecure
icon appears on the status bar, except when the radio is
sending or receiving an Emergency call or alarm.

Dual Tone Multi Frequency (DTMF)
The Dual Tone Multi Frequency (DTMF) feature allows the radio
to operate in a radio system with an interface to telephone
systems.
Procedure:
To initiate a DTMF call.
1Press and hold the PTT button.
2Enter the desired number, * or #.
You can turn off the DTMF tone by disabling all radio tones and
alerts (see Turning the Radio Tones/Alerts On or Off on
page 60).
IP Site Connect
This feature allows your radio to extend communication beyond
the reach of a single site, by connecting to different available
sites via an Internet Protocol (IP) network. A Software License
Key sold separately is required for this feature.
NOTE: This feature is not applicable in Capacity Plus.
When the radio moves out of range from one site and into the
range of another, it connects to the new site's base station 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 base station 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 Members list
during the automatic roam operation to locate the best site.
LKP_NAG-LACR.book Page 51 Tuesday, September 6, 2011 5:01 PM

A Members list supports a maximum of 16 channels (including

Members list. Check with your dealer or system
administrator for more information.

infringement which is based upon the combination of the Product or
parts furnished hereunder with software, apparatus or devices not
