3.7 POWER ON AND SET VOLUME
The power switch and volume control are the same knob on top of the radio (see Figure 3-1).
1. Turn clockwise to power on XG-100P.
2. Set to desired volume level.
Minimum volume levels may be programmed into the radio to prevent missed calls due to
a low volume setting.
The radio can be programmed to require the entry of a PIN in order to operate the radio.
Check with your System Administrator if you forget your PIN. As the PIN is entered, an
asterisk is displayed for each digit. The actual value is not displayed.
3.8 NOISE CANCELLATION
The XG-100P features Harris’ prop rietary noise suppression capability to provide clear and crisp voice
quality in high-noise environments. This can be used in any mode, including analog and digital
communications.
The XG-100P has two microphones; one located on the front (primary) and one on the rear (secondary).
The primary microphone operates in exactly the same manner as a normal radio and is the one you talk
into. The secondary microphone is used to pick up the surrounding noise when noise cancellation is
turned on.
In the case where noise cancellation is enabled and a speaker microphone is attached to the XG-100P, talk
into the speaker microphone. In this mode, XG-100P front microphone is used to pick up the surrounding
noise, and the rear microphone is unused. See Section 3.8.4 for more information. If the secondary
microphone is blocked, the XG-100P operates as though noise cancellation is turned off.
3.8.1 Enable Noise Cancellation
To enable Noise Cancellation:
1. Select MENU
2. Highlight and enable NOISE CANCELLATION using .

Page 20
10515-0372-4200, Rev. R
3.8.2 Using Noise Cancellation
When using the noise cancellation feature, observe the following:
• Verify NOISE CANCELLATION is enab led (see Section 3.8.1).
• Ensure the primary and secondary microphones are not covered. See Section 3.8.4 for more
information on the primary and secondary microphones.
• Talk within two (2) inches of primary micropho ne (see Figure 3-5).
• Speak clearly, loudly, and with authority.
• If possible, face the noise source when talking into the radio (see Figure 3-5).
• In very noisy environments, it is o.k. to yell into the radio. The radio can handle very loud input
levels.
Figure 3-5: Using the Noise Cancellation Feature
3.8.3 The Effect of Distance from the Microphone
Unlike a normal microphone system, noise cancellation makes the level of your voice diminish quickly as
you move away from the radio. In essence, the radio starts to see your voice as surrounding noise.
Whereas, you may be comfortable speaking up to a foot away under normal operation, noise cancellation
requires that you hold the radio close.
20
Page 21
10515-0372-4200, Rev. R
3.8.4 Primary versus Secondary Microphone
3.8.4.1 Without a Speaker Microphone Attached
The primary microphone is located on the front of the radio and the secondary is on the back of the radio.
See Figure 3-6 for the location of these microphones.
Figure 3-6: Without a Speaker Microphone Attached
3.8.4.2 With a Speaker Microphone Attached
When a speaker microphone is attached, the radio electronically switches over to use the radio’ s front
microphone as secondary. The microphone on the attached speaker microphone becomes primary (see
Figure 3-7).
Figure 3-7: With a Speaker Microphone Attached
3.8.5 When using an SCBA Mask
When using the SCBA mask, the primary microphone can be held directly against the voice port. If the
SCBA has a voice amplifier, the same rule appli es. En sur e that the seco nd ary microp h on e is unco vered . If
possible, point the secondary microphone toward the noise source.

NOTE
3.9 PTT OPTIONS
The radio can be programmed via RPM with one of the following PTT options:
• Radio and Accessory – In this mode, when the radio is PTT’d the audio source will correspond with
the PTT source.
If the source of PTT is radio, the audio is routed via the radio microphone.
If the source of PTT is an external microphone accessory, the audio is routed via the external
microphone accessory.
• Accessory Only - Any PTT input will have the audio routed through the external microphone
accessory.
Speaker/Mic always results in audio being routed via the Bletooth Speaker Mic.
3.10 VOICE ANNUNCIATION
When enabled via programming, the Voice Annunciation feature provides audible feedback for various
radio operations. The radio can be programmed to play an audio message for any or all of the following.
This message can be a pre-recorded (canned) message or a user-recorded message.
• Zone changes
• Channel changes
• System changes
• Encryption On/Off
• Noise Cancellation On/Off
• Scan On/Off
• Talkaround On/Off

If the Talk-Around Indication feature is enabled in RPM, the radio will play a unique grant tone when a
call is placed on a simplex channel or when Talk-Around has been enabled on a duplex channel. This
feature applies to both Analog and P25 Conventional systems. It optionally allows the radio to also play
the same tone when it receives a call while o perating in simplex or Talk-Around. If configured, the radio
plays the tone at the selected volume level.
The tone will not play on systems configured with MDC.
Talk-Around Indication can be specified for each individual Analog and P25 Conventional system
configured in personality. The following options can be selected, and apply only when the radio is on a
simplex channel or when Talk-Around has been enabled by the user:
• Disabled: (This is the default option.) When this option is selected, the radio play s the standard grant
tone when a call is placed. The radio does not play a tone when a call is received.

3.19 TYPE 99 OPERATION
Type 99 is Harris' name for in-band, two-tone sequential signaling. It is a conventional signaling protocol
used to control the muting and unmuting of a radio. This signaling is commonly used for selective calling
of individual units or groups of units in a conventional system.
In Type 99 tone systems, calls are not heard until th e radio detects the proper two-tone seq uence. This, in
conjunction with squelch, prevents the user from hearing noise or undesired conversations. When the

3.33 MDC-1200 (CONVENTIONAL ONLY)
MDC-1200 is a legacy in-band signaling protocol that provides the radio with the ability to transmit and
receive a unique PTT ID. This PTT ID can be decoded by receiving radios and displayed as a
hexadecimal number or an alias string. In addition, MDC-1200 provides radios with the ability to transmit
emergency status to a console. Refer to th e MDC-1200 Feature Manual, 14221-7200-6000, for complete
instructions on configuring and using this feature.
3.33.1 Normal PTT Operation
If MDC signaling on PTT press is en abled in RPM, the radio transmits an MDC PTT ID message when
PTT is pressed. If the Sidetone option is enabled in RPM, the radio plays a Ready-to-Talk (RTT) tone
after the MDC pre-signaling has been transmitted.
If MDC signaling on PTT release is en abled (in RPM), the radio transmits post-call MDC signaling when
PTT is released.
• IF STE is enabled (in RPM), the MDC post-call signaling is transmitted after STE is sent on PTT
release only.
• MDC post-call signaling is also sent when there is a radio unkey due to Carrier Control Timeout
(CCT). Normal CCT alert tones occur prior to unkey.
3.33.2 MDC PTT ID Receive Handling
When the radio receives an MDC PTT I D, it searches the MDC ID Alias List for an alias associated with
the ID. If one is found, it displays the alias. If none is found, the radio displays the ID in hexadecimal.
3.33.3 Emergency Declaration
Emergency declaration is accomplished by the radio generating an MDC Emergency PTT message. An
Emergency is considered acknowledged wh en the radio receives an “Ack To Emergency” PTT message
with an ID which matches its own ID. If Emergency Audio is enabled and the PTT Sidetone option is
enabled, the radio plays the Ready-to-Talk tone after the MDC Emergency PTT signaling is transmitted.
• If an MDC Alert on ACK is enabled, the radio plays an ACK tone when the MDC emergency is
acknowledged.
• If audio tones are enabled, the radio plays an ACK tone if the emergency is not acknowledged within
the programmed number of retries.

The Protected Keys feature transfers P25 Voice Keys, from Harris Key Loader to the radio, that have
been wrapped (AES) or encrypted (DES) with Key Protect ion Key s (KPKs). KPKs are noth ing more than
unprotected Key Encryption Keys (KEKs). The KPKs need to be loaded into the radio before the
Protected Keys are loaded. Once loaded into the radio, the KPKs will be used to unwrap (AES) or decrypt
(DES) the Protected Keys. Refer to Section 4.1.2.2 for key loading instructions.
4.1.5 Global Encryption
Global Encryption can be enabled when encryption keys are loaded on the radio and the selected
Zone/System is encrypted. When Global Encryption is enabled on the radio, Global Key is used for all
encrypted transmissions until:
• Global Encryption is disabled.
• A new mission fill is activated.
• The active keyset is changed.
• The system is changed.
Global Encryption behavior is available on all channels that support encrypted communications.

3. Use to highlight and select SCAN LISTS and refer to the following sections.
When using Preemptive Priority Scan, the frequencies in the list need to be unique.
4.7.1 Home, Priority 1, and Priority 2 Channels
4.7.1.1 Home Channel
This is the channel you transmit on by default when you press PTT while the radio is actively scanning
and is not responding to a just received call. Responding to a call the radio just received while scanning is
called hang time. If hang time is set to 0 in RPM, the radio always transmits on the home channel in scan.
4.7.1.2 Priority 1 Channel
This channel will be scanned more often than oth er channels in the list and will be scanned in between
every other channel in the scan list. An ex ample scan sequence wou ld be P1 (priority 1), C2, P1, C3, P1,
61
Page 62
10515-0372-4200, Rev. R
NOTE
NOTE
C4, etc. Also, the priority channel will be scanned even while actively receiving on a non-priority
channel. For example, if the radio is actively receiving on C3 and activity is detected on P1, the radio will
drop C3 and switch to P1.
4.7.1.3 Priority 2 Channel
This channel will also be scanned more often than others. An example scan sequence would be P1, C2,
P1, C3, P1, C4, P2, C5, P1, C6, P1, C7, P1, C8, P2, C9 etc. Also, this channel will be scanned even while
actively receiving on a non-priority channel. For example, if the radio is actively receiving on C3 and
activity is detected on P2, the radio will drop C3 and switch to P2. Additionally, activity on P1 can also
preempt P2, but P2 cannot preempt P1.
4.7.2 Trunked/Conventional Scanning
Trunked/conventional scanning adds the ability to scan multiple conventional and P25 conventional
channels while still maintaining P25 trunked radio operation. In essence, the radio is able to scan a
conventional scan list while still receiving a P25 trunked control channel and receiving P25 trunked calls.
Selection of which conventional scan list is associated with a given trunked system is done in RPM and
cannot be changed on the radio. However, a user with sufficient UI privil ege level (see Section 3.15) is
allowed to edit the scan list members (both trunked groups and conventional channels on the selected
Conventional Priority System). As the number of conventional channels being scanned increases, the
time between scanning each channel increases (roughly 250 milliseconds per channel), with the
consequent increase in the number of calls that will late-enter. In order to avoid missing calls, it is
recommended to keep the number of conventional channels being scanned to eight (8) or fewer.
The trunking site must have roaming set to Enhanced CC.
4.7.3 Vote Scan (Analog and P25 Conventional Only)
If vote scan is enabled via RPM , the radio automatically selects the strongest signal ensuring that the best
audio quality is delivered to the user. If vote scan is enabled, the radio is always scanning. You cannot
stop scanning, start normal scanning, or monitor the channel. There is an icon in the upper status bar
indicating that the radio is vote scanning.
If Talkaround is enabled, Vote Scan is turned off.

4.7.6 Custom Scan Lists
The Mixed Zone Scan (MZS) featu re gives the u ser the capabi lity to scan based on a custo m scan list that
is assigned at the system level. The Custom Scan (CS) list can contain System and Channel/Group
configurations across P25 Trunk, P25 Conventional, and Analog Systems. When a Custom Scan List is
defined on a P25T system, the radio can scan P25T, P25C and Analog systems. When defined on a P25C
or Analog system, the radio only scans conventional channels. MZS also gives the user the capability to
scan beyond the selected system group set.
• P25T Scan
When a custom scan list is assigned to a P25 T system, the user has the ability to scan P25T, P2 5C,
and Analog groups/channels. All P25 T sy stems mu st have t he sa me WACN, Sy stem ID, and Un it I D
to be added to the custom scan list.
• P25C and Analog Scan
When a custom scan lists is assigned to a P25 C or Analog System, the user has the ability to scan
P25C and Analog channels. P25T systems are ignored.
Custom scan list can be created in RPM o r on the fly at the radio. To creat e custom scan lists at the radio,
the appropriate backward compatibility selections must be made in RPM (refer to RPM’s online help for
more information).

5.4 OTAP (P25 TRUNKED ONLY)
Unity radios with R4A and later software support Over-the-Air-Programming (OTAP) via ProFile
Manager. RPM creates, modifies and st ores personality information while ProFile Manager deliv ers the
personality over the network to the desired radios. ProFile Manager also contains the ability to read
personality information over-the-air and save the files, so that RPM can modify the information if
necessary.
You can interrupt the programming process, if necessary, by depressing the Push-to-Talk (PTT) button or
declaring an emergency. Once a radio personality update is successfully completed, the radio
automatically resets itself, switches to the new personality, and returns to normal operation.
For more information on using ProFile Manager, refer to software release notes AE/LZT 123 3263/1.

Side User Programmable Button 1 (yellow button with 3 dots) – unless programmed for
Monitor/Clear
Side User Buttons 2 and 3 (black buttons with 2 dots or 1 dot)
Keypad (numeric keys, #, * and navigation/soft keys)
Indexed features:
These features can be assigned to any number of positions as long as each index value sel ected for it is
unique across multiple assignments of the same feature; for example, you can’t assign a Zone with a
particular index (e.g., “ZONE A”) to both positions A and B.
• Channel Bank – Selects channels 1-16 in position A; 17-32 in position B; and 33-48 in position C.
If Channel Bank is selected for any single posi tion, the entire set of 3 positions (A, B, and
C) will be set to Channel Bank.
• Zone Selection – Sets to the Zone index value.
When setting the A/B/C switch to an indexed zone assigned position, the radio sets, but does not
“hold,” that zone. This has the resulting effects:
o This sets the channel knob to be zone-based system/channel selection just like selecting a
zone from the main “Zone” menu.
o If a user then changes to a different system or zone, it will override the radio’s
zone/system/channel selection accordingly and not require it to remain where the switch
assignment set it to.
When changing from a Zone assigned position, no actions/changes will be taken by the radio.
• System Selection – Sets to the System index value.
When setting the A/B/C switch to an indexed System assigned position, the radio sets, but does
not “hold,” that System. This has the resulting effects:
82
Page 83
10515-0372-4200, Rev. R
o This sets the channel knob to be sy stem-based channel selection, just like selecting a system
from the main “Zone” menu or ramping up/down using the side user-programmable buttons.
o If a user then changes to a different system or zone, it will override the radio’s
zone/system/channel selection accordingly and not require it to remain where the switch
assignment is set.
When changing from a System assigned position, no actions/changes will be taken by the radio.

8.2 OTAR ERRORS/INFORMATION
WORKAROUNDS:
1. Zeroize.
2. Load proper KEK from the Motorola KVL or Harri s Key Loader.
IF RADIO INDICATES:
1. INVALID KEYSTORE ZEROIZE NEEDED:
This occurs if the radio’s keys were loaded by the Harris Key Loader followed by an attempt to load
UKEKs with the Key Loader or keys with the Motorola KVL. Fix by performing workaround 1,
followed by 2.
Use RPM to ensure plan validit y.
Contact Harris if failures persis t.
DSP problem — power cycle the
radio and contact Harris if
problem persists.
Enter a valid maintenance
password.
Enter valid channel edit
password.
96
2. NO UKEK – Displayed during a zeroize performed from the radio or a zeroize initiated from the
KMF.
- Fix by performing workaround 2.
3. Zeroize Complete – KMF has zeroized the radio.
- Fix by performing workaround 2.
4. Disabled OTAR Icon (red slash) – OTAR is disabled while in scan, talkaround, emergency, and
monitor.
- Fix by disabling these features. Icon will be corrected (no red slash).
5. Gray OTAR Icon (no red slash) – OTAR has not registered with tower (Conventional or Trunked
system).
- Fix by verifying proper frequencies.
- If the radio is turned to the OTAR channel out of range of a conventional tower, and then comes
in range after 3 minutes, fix by issuing an OTAR. Rekey, leaving and re-enter the OTAR channel.
Page 97
10515-0372-4200, Rev. R
6. Green OTAR Icon – OTAR is registered, all is well.
- If update fails, verify you are in range o f th e tower and the KEK is correct.
7. Blue OTAR Icon – OTAR is attempting to rekey.
- If rekey fails, verify you are in range of the tower and the KEK is correct.

APPENDIX A PPP/SLIP CONNECTION
A.1 OVERALL CONFIGURATION
This appendix describes how to setup PPP and SLIP connection s between a Un it y Por tabl e radi o acti ng as
a Mobile Data Terminal (MDT) and a Mobile Data Peripheral (MDP). The MDP in Figure A-1 is a
Windows XP machine. This example is used throughout the configuration, but is only intended as a
guide. It is important to realize that all IP addresses are site/configuration sp ecific. Prior to configuring
the MDT or the MDP, the system administrator sh ould provide configuration specifics.
Figure A-1: Example of PPP/SLIP Configuration
• MDP PPP IP Address – There are two types of configurati on for the MDP’s IP address, dynamically
assigned by PPP or statically assigned withi n the MDP’s PPP configuration settings:
Dynamic via PPP ( shown in Fig ure A-1) - When using PPP’s dynamic IP address assignment, th e
radio will assign its own RF IP address to the MDP. Outbound IP data from the site will be
processed by the radio if the port matches the ports within the radio’s services (Radio Textlink,
OTAR, OTAP, etc.). All other outbound IP data from the site is forwarded to the MDP. Inbound
IP data from the MDP will be process ed by the radio if the MDP uses t he radio ’s PPP IP address;
otherwise, it will be forwarded to the site.
Static – The MDP software allows the configuration of a static IP address to the MDP. While this
provides more configurability, routing of traffic to the MDP from the site must be configured
within the site’s routers.
• Unity MDT’s PPP IP – This is typically a non ce IP address (shown in Figure A-1) to allow the MDP
to address the radio explicitly (i.e., ping).
• Unity MDT’s RF IP – This IP address is how the site addresses the radio and must match
configuration at the site.
Other IP addresses in the figure above are beyond the scope of this configuration document and are
provided for the purpose of the configuration example only.

A.2 RADIO CONFIGURATION
1. Use RPM to configure Unity MDT services, PPP IP address, and RF IP address.
2. Within Data Options Data Interfaces tab, enable MDT and configure the MDT’s PPP address:
3. Within the Data Options, Data Transport tab, configure the MDT’s RF IP

.

If the MDP will be configured to have the radio provide the IP address (dynamic PPP IP address assignment), it is important
to set the RF IP Address even if the site will dynamically assign it. Otherwise, the radio will fail PPP negotiation until the
radio has registered with the site.
