Figure 1 User Control Module
6.1 ARCHITECTURE
The human interface is organized into display pages. Each display page provides the operator the ability
to view specific information, or perform some specific task(s). The operator navigates from page to
page by pressing keys, turning knobs, etc. Navigation can be achieved either through the touchscreen
or through keys/knobs/push-button actions. Display pages are organized in a tree structure, rooted at
the normal operation page. All features are three (3) actions or less from the normal operation page.
Figure 2 shows the tree structure of the display pages identified in this document.

6.2 POWER ON
If aircraft power is removed while the PMR is in operation, the PMR shall automatically turn on upon
reapplication of aircraft power. If the PMR is not in operation (turned off) when aircraft power is
removed, the PMR shall remain off when aircraft power is restored, and shall only turn on when an
operator presses the “ON” button.
Upon power up, the PMR shall display a “boot” screen while system initialization is taking place. This
should take less than 30 seconds, which is the amount of time specified for the transceiver modules to
come up fully. Figure 3 depicts the boot screen. Note the software part number displayed near the
bottom of the screen. In addition, the hardware model number and firmware number shall be displayed.

320-1XXXXX-XX
Figure 3 Boot Screen
During power up, if the Aircraft-Personality-Module (APM) is missing or inoperable, the PMR shall display
an error screen indicating the condition. The operator shall be required to acknowledge this condition
before execution can continue. Once acknkowledged, the system shall use default values for the APM
parameters and continue the boot process. Figure 4 depicts the APM-Error screen.

6.3 POWER OFF
If aircraft power is removed while the PMR is in operation, the PMR shall be able to restore the following
from non-volatile memory upon reapplication of aircraft power.
Current active channel for each transceiver
Current volume level for each transceiver
Current active transceiver
Audio Levels
The operator shall be able to turn the PMR off by pressing and holding the “ON” button. While the “ON”
button is being held down, the PMR shall do the following:
1. Go to full brightness.
2. Display the System Shutdown screen depicted in Figure 6.
3. Count down the seconds remaining until system turns off from 3 to 0.
4. When the count hits 0, power off.
If the operator releases the “ON” button prior to 3 seconds elapsing, the display shall return its previous
state.

6.4 DISPLAY PAGES
The following sections flesh out each of the display pages identified in Figure 2. The information
required to display on each page is given along with known button/knob event requirements. A picture
showing the desired page layout is also provided. Due to the significant differences in aspect ratio
between the documentation system and the actual hardware’s display, some deviation in fonts, colors,
and information placement is expected, and permissible, in the implementation.
6.4.1 NORMAL OPERATION PAGE
This page is the primary operational page of the PMR. This page shall be the first operational page
displayed after system boot. Figure 7 depicts the desired layout for this page when the maximum 5
transceivers are available.

Figure 8 Normal Operation Page Regions
The System-Dashboard region contains a summary of the operating state of all the transceivers installed
in the system. The PMR supports from 1 to 3 internal transceivers and 0 to 2 external transceivers. This
region shall be split into sub-regions, one for each transceiver. These sub-regions are termed a
Dashboard-View. Details of the contents of the Dashboard-View are given elsewhere in this document.
The Active-Transceiver region contains detailed information on the active transceiver. The active
transceiver is the one that the operator will interact with. This region of the display is termed an Active-
Transceiver-View. All transceiver specific functions are accessed via the Active-Transceiver-View.
Details of the contents of the Active-Transceiver-View are given elsewhere in this document.
701-070801 Rev A This document contains proprietary information,
see proprietary statement on first page. Page 13 of 85
A transceiver shall be made active by pressing its Dashboard-View, either by direct touch or by
cursor/value/enter. Any of the installed transceivers shall be selectable as the active transceiver, but
only one transceiver shall be active at any given time.
When a transceiver is made active, it shall become the active transmitter for its PTT group. In single-
microphone installations (i.e. a single PTT group), the active transceiver shall transmit when the PTT is
asserted. In multiple-microphone installations (i.e. two or more PTT groups), the active transceiver for
the PTT group shall transmit when the PTT for the group is asserted.
6.4.1.2 Navigation
To Home page shall be navigable by both touch and cursor/value. The screen element that the operator
is currently interacting with shall be indicated by a rectangle drawn around the element. This rectangle
is termed the focus rectangle. Only one screen element shall be focused at any given time. After three
(3) seconds of inactivity, the focus rectangle shall become invisible to avoid screen clutter. The gold
boxes (some rounded) in Figure 9 show the screen elements that shall be focusable.
Touching an element gives it the focus. Rotating the cursor knob clockwise shall move the focus
rectangle in a generally circular, left-to-right, top-to-bottom fashion. The red arrows in Figure 9 depict
the motion of the focus rectangle as the cursor knob is turned clockwise. Turning the cursor knob
counterclockwise shall move the focus rectangle in the reverse order of clockwise rotation. If the focus
rectangle is invisible due to inactivity, the first turn of the cursor knob shall make the focus rectangle
visible, but shall not move it from its previous location.
Figure 9 Normal Operation Page Navigation
6.4.1.3 Dashboard-View
The Dashboard-View contains a summary of the operating state of a transceiver. Its purpose is to keep
the operator informed about the state of non-active transceivers. This view contains only summary
information, such as the active channel and indications of mode. The Dashboard-View for an internal
transceiver is depicted in Figure 10. The Dashboard-View for an external transceiver is depicted in
Figure 11.

When the unit is operating in tactical mode and standby tuning is enabled and the operator presses the
CHAN Transceiver-Menu button, the Channel-Number-Entry dialog shall appear to change the standby
channel on the active transceiver. Figure 91 depicts the Channel-Number-Entry dialog.
If the number entered is a valid channel, it shall be loaded into the active transceiver and the display
shall return to the Normal-Operation-Page. If the entered number is invalid, the digits entered shall be
cleared and the operator can try again. Entering a channel number of 0 shall load the manual channel
for the active transceiver. Pressing the HOME button shall cancel the operation and return to the
Normal-Operation-Page.
6.4.1.6.2 Direct/Repeat Mode
When the unit is operating in tactical mode and the active channel is not a simplex channel, and the
operator presses the DIR Transceiver-Menu button and the transceiver is in Direct mode, the transceiver
shall change to Repeater mode. Conversely, if the transceiver is in Repeater mode, pressing the DIR
Transceiver-Menu button shall change the transceiver to Direct mode. If the active channel is a simplex
channel, the DIR Transceiver-Menu button shall have no effect as DIR should be displayed at all times
6.4.1.6.3 Encrypted Mode
When the unit is operating in tactical mode and the active channel is capable of encryption, and the
operator presses the PVT Transceiver-Menu button and the transceiver is in encrypted mode, the
transceiver shall change to non-encrypted mode. Conversely, if the transceiver is in non-encrypted
mode, pressing the PVT Transceiver-Menu button shall change the transceiver to encrypted mode. If
the active channel (or transceiver itself) is not capable of encryption, the PVT Transceiver-Menu button
shall have no effect.
6.4.1.6.4 ATC Mode
When the unit is operating in tactical mode and the operator presses the ATC Transceiver-Menu button,
the transceiver shall change to ATC-COM mode. Note ATC-COM functionality is only available on CWT
modules. If the active transceiver is an APX, the ATC Transceiver-Menu button should be disabled or
invisible.
6.4.1.6.5 OTAR Process

Figure 22 OTAR Confirmation Dialog
Once the operator has confirmed the operation, the active transceiver shall begin the OTAR operation.
The display shall give feedback to the operator on the progress of the OTAR operation. At a minimum,
“OTAR in progress” and “OTAR completed” or “OTAR failed” status messages shall be displayed. The
status messages shall be displayed in the screen area normally used to display the active and standby
channel information. Figure 23 depicts a typical OTAR status display.
While the OTAR status is “OTAR in progress” the STOP button shall be enabled. If the operator presses
the STOP button the OTAR cancel confirmation dialog shall be displayed, as depicted in Figure 24. This
dialog functions identically to the OTAR start confirmation dialog. If the operator chooses to cancel the
OTAR, then the OTAR operation shall be aborted and normal operation resumed. If the operator
chooses to continue with the OTAR operation, the display shall resume to where it was prior to the STOP
button being pressed. While an OTAR is in progress, no transceiver functions shall be available other
than to cancel the OTAR in progress.
While the OTAR status is “OTAR completed” or “OTAR failed” the OK button shall be enabled. The
operator shall be required to press the OK button to acknowledge the result of the OTAR operation.

Scan mode is invoked by pressing the SCAN Transceiver-Menu button. Only the active transceiver is
affected. If the active transceiver is incapable of scan, the Error-Tone should sound. If the active
transceiver is scan capable but there are no scan groups programmed for it, the No-Scan-Groups dialog
shall display. If the active transceiver is scan capable and there are one or more scan groups
programmed for it, the Select-Scan-Group dialog shall display.
The No-Scan-Groups dialog is displayed when an attempt is made to start scan mode on a transceiver
that has no scan groups associated with it. The page is depicted in Figure 26. The OK soft button or
the HOME button shall be used to dismiss the dialog. All other buttons and knobs are ignored.
The Select-Scan-Group dialog is displayed when scan mode is started on a transceiver that has one or
more associated scan groups. This page, depicted in Figure 27, shall allow the operator to select one of
the transceiver’s scan groups for scanning.
The first time the Select-Scan-Group dialog is displayed after a power cycle, the first (lowest numbered)
scan group assigned to the active transceiver shall be focused. For subsequent invocations of the page,
the most recently selected scan group for the active transceiver shall be focused. The last selected scan
group need not be retained when power is lost.
All available scan groups for the transceiver shall be displayed, both by number and alphanumeric
identifier. The operator shall be able to select a group by touching it directly on the screen, or by using
the cursor/value knobs. When the value knob is turned, the focus rectangle shall traverse the list,
scrolling as necessary. When the cursor knob is turned, the focus rectangle shall move between the list

When the operator presses the “Scan” button on the Select-Scan-Group page, the system will return to
the Home page with the active transceiver scanning the selected group. The active channel of the active
transceiver shall be automatically added to the selected scan group as the priority-1 channel. The
system shall indicate it is scanning by displaying an the SCAN indicator.
If the system detects a signal while scanning, the display shall indicate the reception by displaying the
SCAN indicator in reverse video. Furthermore, the channel being received shall be displayed temporarily
in place of the active channel.
The display shall revert to showing the active channel when the signal has been lost from the scan
channel for more than a prescribed amount of time. This time delay, called scan-delay, shall be
programmable with a default of 3 seconds.
If the operator while the system is scanning, and the transceiver being scanned is the active transceiver,
and one of the scan channels is currently receiving, the scan channel being received shall be temporarily
removed from the scan group. This is a convenience function that is equivalent to changing the IN/OUT
status of the channel via Scan-Group-Edit page. The channel can be added back into the group using
the Scan-Group-Edit page.
If the operator presses PTT while the system is scanning, and the transceiver being scanned is the active
transceiver, and no scan channel is currently receiving, the system shall stop scanning, and then
proceed to transmit on the active channel. The system shall automatically resume scanning after 3
seconds of inactivity on the active channel.
If the operator presses PTT while the system is scanning, and the transceiver being scanned is the active
transceiver, and one of the scan channels is currently receiving, the system shall stop scanning, and
then proceed to transmit on the currently active scan channel. The system shall automatically resume
scanning after 3 seconds of inactivity on the active scan channel. This provides a talkback feature.
701-070801 Rev A This document contains proprietary information,

If the operator presses PTT while a non-scanning transceiver is active, the transceiver being scanned
shall remain scanning.
If the operator changes channel on a scanning transceiver, the newly tuned channel shall become the
active channel and the system shall continue scanning. If the operator changes channel on a non-
scanning transceiver, the transceiver being scanned shall remain scanning.
If the operator presses the SCAN Transceiver-Menu button, the system shall stop scanning and display
the Select-Scan-Group page. This allows the operator to quickly select another group to scan, edit the
selected scan group, or exit scan mode completely.
6.4.1.6.8 View Channel Properties Page
The View-Channel-Properties page shall allow the user to view all known properties of any channel
known to the transceiver. The transceiver whose channels are being displayed shall be identified.
Channel properties expected to be displayed are detailed in Table 4. Figure 29 depicts the desired

6.4.2.3 Relay Mode
Relay Mode allows the PMR transceiver system to function as a cross-band repeater. All five transceivers
can participate in a relay. If a Relay link is established between two transceivers, a message received on
one transceiver is automatically retransmitted out the other. If a link is established between three or
more transceivers, a message received on one transceiver is automatically retransmitted out all the
others.
When an operator indicates their desire to enter Relay-Mode, they shall first be presented the Relay-
Configuration dialog. This dialog shall allow the operator to select which transceivers will participate in
the relay. Only transceivers installed in the system shall be selectable. The “Terminate” button shall
only be visible if a relay is currently active. The Relay-Configuration dialog is depicted in Figure 37.

6.4.2.4 Simulcast Mode
Simulcast Mode allows the operator to simultaneously transmit on multiple transceivers within the PMR
whenever the specified PTT is asserted. Any of the five PTT discrete inputs can be used as the simulcast
trigger, and all five transceivers can participate in the simulcast. For example, if a Simulcast is
established for transceiver-1 and transceiver-2 using PTT-1, and the operator keys up using PTT-1, the
operator’s transmission will be sent out both transceiver-1 and transceiver-2.
701-070801 Rev A This document contains proprietary information,
see proprietary statement on first page. Page 37 of 85
When an operator indicates their desire to enter Simulcast-Mode, they shall first be presented the

6.4.2.8.1 Add Preset Channel
The Preset-Channel-Add pages shall allow the operator to add a new channel to a transceiver’s channel
list and configure the newly added channel’s properties. These pages utilize the “Wizard” paradigm
where each channel property is configured on a separate page. This is useful for preset channels
because the properties have dependencies. For example, an AM channel should not allow for
configuring sub-audible tones since they are not used in AM. Another example, network access codes
should not be available for non-P25 channels. The “Wizard” paradigm ensures only applicable properties
are displayed to the operator for configuration.
The first page in the sequence shall be the Preset-Channel-Transceiver page. This page shall allow the
operator to specify the transceiver for which the channel will be added. Only transceivers installed in the
system shall be selectable. At this time, Motorola does not allow channels to be added to a transceiver
by any means other than their CPS software. Therefore, APX transceivers shall be disabled or hidden on
this page. The page is depicted in Figure 48 and the page’s Action/Event table is contained in Table 11.

The following sections describe data entry components designed to allow consistent data entry
throughout the system. This includes components for all the common quantities, such as frequencies,
sub-audible tones, NAC codes, etc.
6.4.3.1 Channel Number Entry
The Channel-Number-Entry dialog shall allow the operator to input preset channel numbers. Preset
channel numbers are integers ranging from 0 to 1024. The operator enters a channel number using the
virtual keypad. Digits keys on the keypad shall be touchable directly, or selectable via the cursor/value
controls. An entry can be cleared (restarted) by pressing the “C” button. Entry shall be completed by
pressing the “Ok” button. The Channel-Number-Entry dialog is depicted in Figure 91.

6.4.3.4 Tone Entry
The Tone-Entry dialog shall allow the operator to input sub-audible tones. Both CTCSS (PL) and DCS
(DPL) tones shall be supported. Valid values for these tones are described in Appendix A. CTCSS tones
shall be displayed using their EIA code. DCS tones shall be displayed as a 3-digit number, padded with
a leading zero if required. Tones shall be selectable by touching them directly, or via the cursor/value
controls. A tone can be cleared (removed) by pressing the “None” tab. Entry shall be completed by
pressing the “Ok” button. The Tone-Entry dialog is depicted in Figure 94.
