!
Caution

Before using this product, read
the operating instructions for safe
usage contained in the Product
Safety and RF Exposure booklet
enclosed with your radio.

This radio is restricted to occupational use
only to satisfy FCC RF energy exposure
requirements. Before using this product, read
the RF energy awareness information and
operating instructions in the Product Safety
and RF Exposure booklet enclosed with your
radio (Motorola Publication part number
68P81095C98) to ensure compliance with RF
energy exposure limits.
For a list of Motorola-approved antennas,
batteries, and other accessories, visit the
following web site which lists approved
accessories:

Note: When charging a battery attached to a
radio, turn your radio off to ensure a full
charge.

SAFETY

ATTENTION!

This product is powered by a nickel-cadmium
(NICd), nickel-metal-hydride (NiMH), or
lithium-ion rechargeable battery. Charge the
battery before use to ensure optimum capacity
and performance. The battery was designed
specifically to be used with a Motorola charger.
Charging in non-Motorola equipment may lead
to battery damage and void the battery
warranty.

The battery should be at about 77°F (25°C)
(room temperature), whenever possible.
Charging a cold battery (below 50°F [10°C])
may result in leakage of electrolyte and
ultimately in failure of the battery. Charging a
hot battery (above 95°F [35°C]) results in
reduced discharge capacity, affecting the
performance of your radio. Motorola rapid-rate
battery chargers contain a temperaturesensing circuit to ensure that batteries are
charged within the temperature limits stated
above.

INTRODUCTION
Welcome to Motorola’s HT Series family of radio
users. This user guide supports HT1250•LS+™
radios. These radios combine the very latest in
two-way technology while delivering outstanding
functionality at the touch of a button.
HT1250•LS+ portable radios operate on UHF/
VHF PassPort, LTR Trunked, and
Conventional radio systems.
Contact your Motorola dealer for a list of
features available with your radio.

TRUNKED RADIO SYSTEMS

PassPort® Trunked Systems

LTR® Trunked Systems
LTR is a transmission-based trunking protocol
developed by the E. F. Johnson Company for
primarily single-site trunking applications. In
transmission trunking, a repeater is used only
for the duration of a single transmission. Once
a transmission is completed, that repeater
becomes available to other users. This means
that a conversation comprised of many
transmissions may occur over several different
channels within the LTR system. This method
of trunking provides system efficiency by
making repeaters available to all users after
every transmission.

PassPort is an enhanced trunking protocol
developed by Trident Micro Systems that

INTRODUCTION

Trunked systems allow a large number of users
to share a relatively small number of
frequencies or repeaters without interfering with
each other. The airtime of all the repeaters in a
Trunked system is pooled, which maximizes
the amount of airtime available to any one radio
and minimizes channel congestion.

supports wide-area dispatch networking. A
network is formed by linking several Trunked
sites together to form a single system. This
offers users an extended communication
coverage area. In addition, users with
PassPort-enabled radios can seamlessly roam
among all sites within the network. Seamless
roaming means that you do not have to
manually change the zones on your radio
when roaming from site to site.

English

CONVENTIONAL RADIO SYSTEMS
Conventional radio systems typically refer to
unit-to-unit communications through a single
channel. Conventional systems also allow
radio users to extend communication coverage
by relaying their messages through a repeater.
To ensure coordinated use by multiple
talkgroups, each radio user must monitor the
channel or repeater before transmitting to
verify that the system is not currently busy.

Programmable Buttons
Your dealer can program several of your

radio’s features.
Programmable buttons include:
•

The three Side Buttons (A, B, C) and the
Top Button (D)

•

The three Lower Menu Keys (P1, P2, P3)
(when your radio is not in Menu mode)

•

Short Press—quickly pressing and
releasing the programmable buttons,
–or–

•

Long Press—pressing and holding the
programmable buttons for a period of time
(programmable for 1/2 to 1 1/2 seconds),
–or–

•

Hold Down—pressing and holding down
the programmable buttons while checking
status or making adjustments.

The table on page 18 summarizes the
programmable features available along with
the page number where the feature is
explained.
Ask your dealer to write down, in the “Button”
column, the names of the programmable
buttons next to the features that have been
programmed to them. Your dealer can use the
abbreviations shown in the radio illustration on
page 11 of this use guide (for example, A for
Side Button 1, D for Top Button, etc.). Your
dealer can also indicate whether the button
press is short press (SP) or long press (LP)
where applicable.

PASSPORT TRUNKING
PassPort® is an enhanced, wide-area trunking
protocol developed by Trident Micro Systems.
Up to 128 Trunked sites can be linked together
to form one PassPort system, which means
that your communications can extend far
beyond the reach of a single trunked site.

SEAMLESS ROAMING

Restricted from that site or Group Restricted
from that talkgroup. What you see:

PASSPORT
TRUNKING

PassPort Trunking systems offer you the ability
to seamlessly roam among all sites in a
network. Seamless Roaming means that you
do not have to manually change the zones on
your radio when roaming from site to site. As
you roam throughout a PassPort System’s
coverage area, your HT1250•LS+ radio
regularly monitors the RSSI (Received Signal
Strength Indication) level of the site on which
you are currently registered. In addition, if the
signal strength falls below the acceptable
threshold preprogrammed by your dealer, your
radio starts monitoring the RSSI level of
adjacent sites within the network. This allows
the HT1250•LS+ radio to quickly roam to the
site with the strongest signal, which provides

you with optimal audio quality throughout your
communications.

Roaming and Registering between Sites
Once initial registration with the PassPort
system has occurred, your radio constantly
monitors the RSSI to ensure an acceptable
signal level is maintained (as programmed by
your dealer). When the RSSI in your radio falls
below this acceptable level, your HT1250•LS+
radio attempts to roam to and register onto
another site within the PassPort system.
This process happens automatically and
requires no action on your part. What you see:

Note:

Alias will be displayed only if
preprogrammed in the radio via the

ROAM REQUEST
Since your radio has the RSSI feature, your
HT1250•LS+ radio automatically roams to an
affiliated site when the signal from the
registered site becomes too weak for quality
communication. This RSSI threshold is
programmed by your dealer. However, if you
believe the signal strength would be better on
another site, you may want to manually initiate
the roaming process. This feature is called
Roam Request.

when a radio is talkgroup-restricted from all

initiate a Roam Request to a different talkgroup
on an affiliated site.

SETTING THE POWER LEVEL B
Each channel in your radio has a predefined
transmit power level that can be changed.
•

High power (S) allows you to reach a radio
that is farther away.

•

Low power (R) conserves the battery’s
charge.

•

Auto power (Conventional operation only)
automatically sets the optimal power level
based on the strength of the signal
received. If the received signal is weak, the
transmit level will be set to high, and vice
versa.
