SAFETY TRAINING INFORMATION

The M/A-COM P7100IP portable radio generates RF
electromagnetic energy during transmit mode. This
radio is designed for and classified as “Occupational
Use Only,” meaning it must be used only during the
course of employment by individuals aware of the

WARNING

The P7100IP portable radio has been tested and complies with the FCC RF
exposure limits for “Occupational Use Only.” In addition, this M/A-COM
radio complies with the following Standards and Guidelines with regard to RF
energy and electromagnetic energy levels and evaluation of such levels for
exposure to humans:

• FCC OET Bulletin 65 Edition 97-01 Supplement C, Evaluating
Compliance with FCC Guidelines for Human Exposure to Radio
Frequency Electromagnetic Fields.

• American National Standards Institute (C95.1 – 1992), IEEE Standard for
Safety Levels with Respect to Human Exposure to Radio Frequency
Electromagnetic Fields, 3 kHz to 300 GHz.

• American National Standards Institute (C95.3 – 1992), IEEE
Recommended Practice for the Measurement of Potentially Hazardous
Electromagnetic Fields – RF and Microwave.

hazards and the ways to minimize such hazards. This
radio is NOT intended for use by the “General
Population” in an uncontrolled environment.

RF EXPOSURE GUIDELINES

To ensure that exposure to RF electromagnetic energy is
within the FCC allowable limits for occupational use,

CAUTION

• DO NOT operate the radio without a proper antenna attached, as this may
damage the radio and may also cause the FCC RF exposure limits to be
exceeded. A proper antenna is the antenna supplied with this radio by
M/A-COM or an antenna specifically authorized by M/A-COM for use
with this radio. (Refer to Table 2: Options and Accessories)

• DO NOT transmit for more than 50% of total radio use time (“50% duty
cycle”). Transmitting more than 50% of the time can cause FCC RF
exposure compliance requirements to be exceeded. The radio is
transmitting when the “TX” indicator appears in the display. The radio
will transmit by pressing the “PTT” (Push-To-Talk) button.

always adhere to the following guidelines:

5

• Always transmit using low power (refer to High/Low Power Adju stment
section) when possible. In addition to conserving battery charge, low
power can reduce RF exposure.

• ALWAYS use M/A-COM authorized accessories (antennas, batteries,
belt clips, speaker/mics, etc). Use of unauthorized accessories may cause
the FCC Occupational/Controlled Exposure RF compliance requirements
to be exceeded. (Refer to Table 2: Options and Accessories.)

• ALWAYS keep the device and its antenna at least 2 cm (0.8 inches) from
the body and at least 5 cm (2 inches) from the face when transmitting to
ensure FCC RF exposure compliance requirements are not exceeded. This
radio has been tested for RF exposure compliance at the distances listed
in Table 1. However, to provide the recipients of your transmission the
best sound quality, hold the antenna at least 5 cm (2 inches) from mouth,
and slightly off to one side.

OPERATING TIPS

Antenna location and condition are important when operating a portable rad io.
Operating the radio in low lying areas or terrain, under power lines or bridges,
inside of a vehicle or in a metal framed building can severely reduce the range
of the unit. Mountains can also reduce the range of the unit.

In areas where transmission or reception is poor, some improvement may be
obtained by ensuring that the antenna is vertical. Moving a few yards in
another direction or moving to a higher elevation may also improve
communications. Vehicular operation can be aided with the use of an
externally mounted antenna.

Battery condition is another important factor in the trouble free operation of a
portable radio. Always properly charge the batteries.

EFFICIENT RADIO OPERATION

For optimum audio clarity at the receiving radio(s), hold the portable radio
approximately three inches from your mouth and speak into the microphone at
a normal voice level.

Keep the antenna in a vertical position when receiving or transmitting a
message.

Do not hold the antenna when receiving a message and, especially, do not
hold when transmitting a message.

Do NOT hold onto the antenna when transmitting!

WARNING

Antenna Care and Replacement

Always keep the antenna at least 0.8 inches (2 cm.) away from
the body and 2 inches (5 cm.) from the face when transmitting
to ensure FCC RF exposure compliance requirements are not

WARNING

exceeded.

Do not use the portable radio with a damaged or missing
antenna. A minor burn may result if a damaged antenna comes
into contact with the skin. Replace a damaged antenna
immediately. Operating a portable radio with the antenna

WARNING

missing could cause personal injury, damage the radio, and may
violate FCC regulations.

8

Use only the supplied or approved antenna. Unauthorized
antennas, modifications or attachments could cause damage to
the radio unit and may violate FCC regulations. (Refer to Table

WARNING

2: Options and Accessories.)

Electronic Devices

RF energy from portable radios may affect some electronic
equipment. Most modern electronic equipment in cars,
hospitals, homes, etc. are shielded from RF energy. However, in

CAUTION

areas in which you are instructed to turn off two-way radio
equipment, always observe the rules. If in doubt, turn it off!

Aircraft

Always turn off a portable radio before boarding any aircraft!

• Use it on the ground only with crew permission.

WARNING

• DO NOT use while in-flight!!

Electric Blasting Caps

To prevent accidental detonation of electric blasting caps, DO
NOT use two-way radios within 1000 feet of blasting

operations. Always obey the "Turn Off Two-Way Radios"

WARNING

signs posted where electric blasting caps are being used.
(OSHA Standard: 1926.900)

Potentially Explosive Atmospheres

Areas with potentially explosive atmosphere are often, but not
always, clearly marked. These may be fueling areas, such as gas
stations, fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities, and areas
where the air contains chemicals or particles, such as grain, dust,
or metal powders.

WARNING

Sparks in such areas could cause an explosion or fire resulting in
bodily injury or even death.

UNIVERSAL DEVICE CONNECTOR (UDC)

The Universal Device Connector (UDC) provides connections for external
accessories such as a headset or a speaker-microphone. The UDC is located
on the right side of the radio (opposite the PTT Button). When the radio is
locked in a vehicular charger the UDC provides the audio and control
connections between the radio and the vehicular charger. The UDC facilitates
programming and testing the radio. The UDC pins perform different
functions depending on the accessory attached to the UDC.

DIGITAL VOICE OPERATION

Digital voice programmed systems have three (3) different voice modes: clear
(analog), digital, and private (encrypted). The voice modes are programmed
on a per-group basis within each trunked system and on a per-channel basis
within each conventional system.

35

Clear Mode

The Clear Mode is a voice mode in which the radio transmits and receives
only clear (analog) voice signals. These analog signals are non-digitized and
non-encrypted. Clear mode transmissions can be monitored easily by
unauthorized persons.

Groups or channels programmed for clear operation cannot

NOTE

transmit or receive digital or private messages.

Digital Mode

The Digital Mode allows the radio to transmit and receive digitized voice
signals. Digital signals provide improved weak signal performance and cannot
be easily monitored with a standard receiver. Groups and channels
programmed for digital operation transmit only digital signals. Message
trunked group calls and individual phone calls (I-Calls) are answered back in
the mode in which they were received assuming the call or hang time is still
active. Individual phone, all call, and emergency calls are transmitted clear if
the digital mode is disabled or inoperative.

1. If receiving an analog message trunked call, the radio responds in the
analog mode during the hang time on the working channel.

2. If receiving an analog I-Call, the radio responds in the analog mode
during the hang time.

3. When using the *WHC* feature to respond to an I-Call (after the hang
time has expired), the call is transmitted in the mode defined by the
system mode as programmed for the current system if the ID being called
is not in the I-Call list. If the ID is in the I-Call list, then the call is
transmitted as defined by the I-Call mode programmed in the list for that
ID.

The overdial DTMF tones are not available while in the Digital Mode.

Private Mode

The Private Mode allows the radio to transmit encrypted messages and receive
clear or private transmissions. The radio transmits private if the group/channel
is programmed for private operation and forced operation is pre-programmed.
If autoselect operation is pre-programmed and the radio is in the Private
Mode, the radio transmits in the mode of the received call if the hang time is
active. If no hang time is active, the radio transmits private.

Cryptographic keys are transferred to the radio using a cryptographic
Keyloader. Up to seven (7) different cryptographic keys, numbered 1-7, can
be transferred from a Keyloader and stored in the radio. An individual key is

36

automatically selected on a per-group/channel basis according to the radio
programming. Groups and channels within the digital system can be
programmed for keys 1-7 (private). Up to 8 banks of 7 keys can be stored for
private systems. The bank is specified per system.

When operating on a group or channel programmed for Private Mode, all
transmissions are private transmissions and the radio receives clear and

private signals. The status icon
enabled. If the selected group or channel is programmed for auto-select

after the keys have been zeroed. The display will indicate KEY ZERO.
If the cryptographic key(s) are zeroed, one or more keys must be transferred

from the Keyloader into the radio before private communications may
continue.

Private Operation
Receiving an Encrypted Call

When receiving, the radio automatically switches between clear or private
operation. If the transmission being received is an encrypted transmission, it

will be decrypted, the
message will be heard in the speaker. For this to occur the selected group or
channel must be programmed for private operation and the correct
cryptographic key must be loaded into the radio.

will be displayed and the call will not be transmitted.

3. Continue with standard transmission procedures. A Private Mode access
tone will be heard when the PTT button is pressed.

38

Scanned Group Calls

Receiving a Scanned Group Call is the same as receiving a selected group
call. During the scan hang time, if the radio was programmed for autoselect, it
will transmit back in the same mode it received the call. For example, if a
clear group is entered in the scan list, it will only receive clear calls. If the
same group was available in private and entered in the scan list, it can receive
clear and private calls, provided autoselect was programmed in the radio. The
user can select transmitting on the scanned or selected group. If a group is
entered in the scan list more than once and in different modes (clear, digital,
private), only the first occurrence of the group will be used.

SCANNING TRUNKED SYSTEMS

The radio can be programmed with the following System Scan features. These
features are automatically enabled when the radio is powered ON. A key or
menu option is also defined to allow the System Scan features to be toggled
during radio operation. This is covered in the Menu Selection and Pre­Programmed Keypad Key sections. The System Scan state will be maintained
through system changes but will default to ON when the radio is powered ON.

operation for roaming across mobile systems. Upon the loss of the currently
selected system's control channel, radios can be programmed to automatically
scan the control channels of other systems. If a new control channel is found,
the radio will switch to the new system and sound an alert tone.

Priority System Scan

The radio can also be programmed for Priority System Scan. The priority
system is the desired or preferred system. While receiving the control channel
of the selected system, the radio will periodically leave the selected system
and search for the control channel of the priority system. This is done at a
programmable rate defined by the value in the Priority Scan Time control
(unless the ProScan
sections). This priority scan timer is reset each time the PTT button is pressed
or when the call is received. If the priority system control channel is found, (or
meets the predefined criteria <ProScan>), the radio will automatically switch
to the priority system.

Enabling the Wide Area System Scan Function

If the radio cannot find the control channel of the selected system and begins
to wide area system scan, the radio will only scan for the priority system
control channel if the priority system is in the wide area scan list.

43

When ProScan is Enabled

The radio monitors the priority system and will switch to the priority system if
the criteria defined by the controls in the ProScan Options dialog box are met.
If ProScan is enabled, the rate at which the radio will scan for the priority
system is defined by the System Sample Time control, located in the ProScan
Options dialog box.

ProScan

The radio may be programmed for ProScan system scan operation for multi­site applications depending on the version of radio flash code. ProScan is an
improved multi-site system scanning algorithm designed to replace
ProSound
new system for the radio to communicate on, when the selected system drops
below a predefined level. This is accomplished by enabling each radio to
analyze the signal quality of its current control channel and compares it with
the signal quality of the control channel for each site in its adjacent scan list.
(The signal quality metric used for the ProScan algorithm is based on a
combination of both Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI) and Control
Channel Verification (CCV) measurements.) When the selected system
degrades to a pre-programmed level, the radio will begin to look for a better
control channel. Once a control channel that exceeds the pre-programmed
parameters is found, the radio will change to the new system and emit a tone
(if enabled through programming). If the control channel is completely lost,
the radio will enter Wide Area System scanning and search the programmed
adjacent systems until a suitable control channel is found.

To send an emergency call to a selected system and group (or on an optionally
pre-programmed group), proceed as follows:

1. Press and hold the red EMERGENCY button that is on top of the radio in
front of the antenna for approximately one second (this time is
programmable and therefore could be longer or shorter; check with the
system administrator). The radio will transmit an emergency call request
with the radio ID until an emergency channel assignment is received.

Once the radio has established a connection to the public telephone system, it
may be necessary to “over-dial” more digits to access banking services,
answering machines, credit card calls, or other types of systems that require
Dual-Tone Multi-Frequency (DTMF) access digits.

Overdial operation can also be used to initiate a telephone interconnect call

Dynamic Regroup Operation

Dynamic Regroup Operation permits multiple talk groups (up to eight) to be
added to a radio via the system manager. The radio must be pre-programmed
to respond to regrouping. Dynamic regrouping will not be activated in a radio

52

until the system manager sends an activation message. Each radio that
receives and acknowledges the regrouping instructions is successfully
regrouped.

Pressing and holding the CLEAR/MONITOR button for 2.5 seconds toggles
the user into and out of the dynamic regroup groupset. A double beep will

sound for entry or exit. The display will indicate REGRP_0x where "x" is a
digit of 1 to 8 indicating the group (when dynamic regroup has been enabled
by the user). If the radio is in dynamic regroup and the user selects a group

that has not been regrouped, the display will show NO ENTRY. The radio
will be prevented from transmitting and receiving calls in this condition
except for scanned groups.

Emergency Operation

If the pre-programmed groupset on the currently selected system contains an
EMER/HOME group and the radio is in dynamic regroup, the radio will
declare the emergency on the currently selected dynamic group.

Macro Key Operation

Macro key operation permits the user to accomplish a series of keystrokes
with a single "macro" keystroke. Each Macro Key is capable of executing up
to twenty (20) keystrokes, to any push button input (i.e., keypad keys,
OPTION button, etc.). Each macro key can be pre-programmed to activate
when pressed or when released.

A macro key may also be pre-programmed to change the key stroke sequence
the next time the macro key is activated.

For detail operation and assignment of macro keys, contact your
communications supervisor or administrator.

PORTABLE DATA

The P7100IP series portable radios, when operating in the EDACS
configuration, permit either voice or data calls to be transmitted or received.
The radio can handle only one type of call at a time; however, selection of
either data or voice is selected transparently by the operator through normal
usage of the radio. Data communications is not supported in the conventional
mode.

The radios can be connected to Mobile Data Terminals (MDT) or to a host
computer. Any RS-232 compatible device that supports the Radio Data
Interface (RDI) protocol (Version 1.91 or greater) may be connected to the
radio. Support for MDTs or host computers is a programmable option per
radio. Additionally, radios may also be programmed for data only operation
(no voice calls transmitted or received).
