SRM9030-P25 RADIO – OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS © ComGroup Australia 2010 page 3 TNM-U-E-0094 Issue 1.2 SAFETY 1. Do NOT operate your radio, without a hands free kit, whilst driving a vehicle. 2. Do NOT operate your radio in an explosive atmosphere. Obey the 'Turn Off Two-way Radios' signs where these are posted, e.g. on a petrol station forecourt. 3. Do NOT touch the antenna while the radio is transmitting. HINTS FOR USING THE RADIO • When speaking, hold the microphone a few centimetres from your mouth and speak across it, rather than into it. • Keep the length of your conversation to a minimum and replace the microphone on its cradle after use. • When it is possible to move location, avoid making calls from known poor signal-strength areas such as the radio systems fringe areas (limit of range) or from screened or shadowed areas, e.g. an underground car park or underpass. • To avoid unnecessary drain on the vehicle battery, keep the engine running when using the radio for extensive periods of time.

The SRM9030 has a menu system that is configurable by the FPP. The FPP has a pool of menu entries that can be applied as required in the order required. In simple configurations, no menu can be programmed, if required. See Figure 5 for example menu. Pressing the “M” key from the top-level channel screen enters the menu system. This key has a soft menu label alongside it titled “MENU”. The soft key above “MENU” is generally the accept or “OK” key. YSPECIAL OPSZone 5OKMENU The menus possible are: • Zone (usually the first menu, as often accessed) • Squelch • Mute Adjust (FM) / Monitor (Digital) • Phonebook • Phonebook Edit • User Options • Contrast • Alert Volume • Radio Info • Mode • RSSI • Crypto • Setup • Stored Calls • Messages • Scan Edit • No Menu The presence and order of the above menu selections is determined by the FPP configuration. The Setup menu is a special case entry. Setup is a subgroup that can have any of the list of menu selections assigned to it. This means that lesser used selections can be partly hidden away under Setup subgroup if required, although still accessible.
SRM9030-P25 RADIO – OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS © ComGroup Australia 2010 page 11 TNM-U-E-0094 Issue 1.2 The User Options menu group is also a menu subgroup. This subgroup usually contains on/off functions, such as Key Beeps or Backlight The order and presence of the Setup subgroup selections is determined by the FPP. For instance Info, RSSI and Contrast could be placed under Setup.
SRM9030-P25 RADIO – OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS © ComGroup Australia 2010 page 12 TNM-U-E-0094 Issue 1.2 3.1 MENU NAVIGATION Pressing the “M” key selects Menu mode from the main Channel Screen. Once in menu mode, the ▼ and ▲ keys cycle through the menus. To exit Menu mode, press the “M” key again or the Menu timeout will exit automatically. Generally, pressing “M” key while in a menu backs up to the next highest level of menu and the “OK” button selects the menu screen. The ▼ and ▲ keys are used to navigate through a list of options such as channels, or increase/decrease a value.
