How to Use This Guide
This User Guide covers the basic operation of MOTOTRBO
XPR 6580 IS.
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.
Throughout this publication, a note is shown for Conventional
mode and Trunking mode only features to differentiate the
features according to the two modes.
For features that are available in both Conventional and
Trunking modes, no note is shown.
What Your Dealer/System Administrator
Can Tell You
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?

Charging the Battery
Your radio is powered by a Lithium-Ion (Li-lon) battery. To avoid
damage and comply with warranty terms, charge the battery
using a Motorola charger exactly as described in the charger
user guide.
If battery is attached to your radio, ensure that your radio is
turned off before charging.
Charge a new battery 14 to 16 hours before initial use for best
performance.
IMPORTANT:ALWAYS charge your IMPRES battery with the
IMPRES charger. Using a conventional charger
causes irrecoverable loss of IMPRES battery
data. As a result, the battery functions as a
non-IMPRES battery and cannot display the
data on your radio. Additionally, it voids your
IMPRES battery warranty, although the
standard battery warranty still applies.
Charge battery only in non-hazardous areas. After
battery is charged, allow your radio to rest for at least,
3 minutes. See Batteries on page 49 for the available
batteries.

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 down 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 on page 17).
If the Talk Permit Tone is enabled (see Turning the Talk Permit
Tone On or Off on page 45), wait until the short alert tone ends
before talking.
Switching Between Conventional and
Trunking Mode
Each channel in your
radio can be configured
as a conventional channel
or a trunking channel.
Use the Channel Selector
Knob to switch between a
conventional or a trunking
channel.
When switching from trunking to conventional mode, certain
features are unavailable. Icons for the trunking features reflect
this change by appearing “grayed out’. Disabled features are
hidden in the menu.
Your radio also has features available in both conventional and
trunking mode. However, the minor differences in the way each
feature works does NOT affect the performance of your radio.

to replace or modify the same so that it becomes non-infringing

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