Handling PrecautionsEnglishxiHandling PrecautionsThe MOTOTRBO Series Digital Portable radio meets IP57 specifications, allowing the radio to withstand adverse field conditions such as being submersed in water.•If the radio has been submersed in water, shake the radio well to remove any water that may be trapped inside the speaker grille and microphone port. Trapped water could cause decreased audio performance.•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 submersed in a 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).•Never poke the vent (hole) located on the radio chassis below the battery contact. This vent allows for pressure equalization in the radio. Doing so may create a leak path into the radio and the radio’s submersibility may be lost.•Never obstruct or cover the vent, even with a label. •Ensure that no oily substances come in contact with the vent.•The radio with antenna attached properly is designed to be submersible to a maximum depth of 1 meter (3.28 feet) and a maximum submersion time of 30 minutes. 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 will exceed the 1 meter depth pressure and may cause water to leak into the radio. 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.

Identifying Radio ControlsEnglish13Switching Between Conventional Analog and Digital ModeEach channel in your radio can be configured as a conventional analog or conventional digital channel. Use the Channel Selector Knob to switch between an analog or a digital channel.When switching from digital to analog mode, certain features are unavailable. Icons for the digital features (such as Messages) reflect this change by appearing ‘grayed out’. Disabled features are hidden in the menu.Your radio also has features available in both analog and digital mode. However, the minor differences in the way each feature works does NOT affect the performance of your radio.NOTE: Your radio also switches between digital and analog modes during a dual mode scan (see Scan on page 47). IP Site Connect This feature allows your radio to extend conventional communication beyond the reach of a single site, by connecting to different available sites which are connected via an Internet Protocol (IP) network.When the radio moves out of range from one site and into the range of another, it connects to the new site's repeater 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 repeater 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 roam list during the automatic roam operation to locate the best site.A roam list supports a maximum of 16 channels (including the Selected Channel).Channel Selector Knob
Identifying Radio ControlsEnglish14NOTE: You cannot manually add or delete an entry to the roam list. Check with your dealer or system administrator for more information.Capacity PlusCapacity Plus is a single-site trunking configuration of the MOTOTRBO radio system, which uses a pool of channels to support hundreds of users and up to 254 Groups. This feature allows your radio to efficiently utilize the available number of programmed channels while in Repeater Mode.Icons of features not applicable to Capacity Plus are not available in the menu. You hear a negative indicator tone if you try to access a feature not applicable to Capacity Plus via a programmable button press.Your radio also has features that are available in conventional digital mode, IP Site Connect, Capacity Plus and Linked Capacity Plus. However, the minor differences in the way each feature works does NOT affect the performance of your radio.Check with your dealer or system administrator for more information on this configuration.Linked Capacity Plus Linked Capacity Plus is a multi-site multi-channel trunking configuration of the MOTOTRBO radio system, combining the best of both Capacity Plus and IP Site Connect configurations.Linked Capacity Plus allows your radio to extend trunking communication beyond the reach of a single site, by connecting to different available sites which are connected via an Internet Protocol (IP) network. It also provides an increase in capacity by efficiently utilizing the combined available number of programmed channels supported by each of the available sites. When the radio moves out of range from one site and into the range of another, it connects to the new site's repeater 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 repeater 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.Any channel with Linked Capacity Plus enabled can be added to a particular roam list. The radio searches these channels during the automatic roam operation to locate the best site.

Advanced FeaturesEnglish47ScanWhen 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 and Linked Capacity Plus.Starting and Stopping ScanProcedure: Press the programmed Scan button to start or stop Scan.

Advanced FeaturesEnglish48Responding to a Transmission During a ScanDuring scanning, your radio stops on a channel/group where activity is detected. The radio stays on that channel for a programmed time period known as “hang time”. Procedure: 1Hold the radio vertically 1 to 2 inches (2.5 to 5.0 cm) from your mouth. If the Channel Free Indication feature is enabled, you hear a short alert tone the moment the transmitting radio releases the PTT button, indicating the channel is free for you to respond.2Press the PTT button during hang time. The LED lights up solid green.3Wait for the Talk Permit Tone to finish (if enabled) and speak clearly into the microphone.OR Wait for the PTT Sidetone to finish (if enabled) and speak clearly into the microphone.4Release the PTT button to listen.5If you do not respond within the hang time, the radio returns to scanning other channels/groups.Deleting a Nuisance ChannelIf a channel continually generates unwanted calls or noise (termed a “nuisance” channel), you can temporarily remove the unwanted channel from the scan list.This capability does not apply to the channel designated as the Selected Channel.Procedure:1When your radio “locks on to” an unwanted or nuisance channel, press the programmed Nuisance Channel Delete button until you hear a tone.2Release the Nuisance Channel Delete button. The nuisance channel is deleted.Deleting a “nuisance” channel is only possible through the programmed Nuisance Channel Delete button. This feature is not accessible through the menu.Restoring a Nuisance ChannelProcedure: To restore the deleted nuisance channel, do one of the following:•Turn the radio off and then power it on again, OR•Stop and restart a scan via the programmed Scan button or menu, OR•Change the channel via the Channel Selector Knob. 
Advanced FeaturesEnglish49Vote ScanVote 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 48.Contacts SettingsContacts 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 are able to unscramble the transmission.See Privacy on page 80 for more information. Additionally, Contacts menu allows you to assign each entry to a programmable number key or more on a keypad. If an entry is assigned to a number key, your radio can perform a quick dial on the entry. 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
Advanced FeaturesEnglish50NOTE: You can add, or edit subscriber IDs for the Digital Contacts list.

Advanced FeaturesEnglish89Bluetooth OperationThis feature allows you to use your radio with a Bluetooth-enabled device (accessory) via a Bluetooth connection. Your radio supports both Motorola and COTS (Commercially available Off-The-Shelf) Bluetooth-enabled devices. Bluetooth operates within a range of 10 meters line of sight. This is an unobstructed path between your radio and your Bluetooth-enabled device.It is not recommended that you leave your radio behind and expect your Bluetooth-enabled device to work with a high degree of reliability when they are separated.At the fringe areas of reception, both voice and tone quality will start to sound "garbled" or "broken". To correct this problem, simply position your radio and Bluetooth-enabled device closer to each other (within the 10-meter defined range) to re-establish clear audio reception. Your radio’s Bluetooth function has a maximum power of 2.5 mW (4 dBm) at the 10-meter range. Your radio can support up to 3 simultaneous Bluetooth connections with Bluetooth-enabled devices of unique types. For example, a headset, a scanner, and a PTT-Only Device (POD). Multiple connections with Bluetooth-enabled devices of the same type are not supported.
