How to Use This Guide
This User Guide covers the basic operation of the
APX Portables.
However, your dealer or system administrator may
have customized your radio for your specific needs.
Check with your dealer or system administrator for
more information.
Notations Used in This Manual
Throughout the text in this publication, you will notice
the use of Warning, Caution, and Note. These
notations are used to emphasize that safety hazards
exist, and the care that must be taken or observed.
Warning

Additional Performance Enhancement
Getting Started
The following performance enhancements are some
of the latest creations designed to enhance the
security, quality and efficiency of the radios.
ASTRO 25 Enhanced Data
ASTRO 25 Enhanced Data is optimized to handle
different message sizes and variable update rates
from different applications of the radio. Add Enhanced
Data to the Integrated Data system with a software
installation to improve data channel efficiency and
enable denser network traffic.
Dynamic System Resilience (DSR)
DSR ensures the radio system is seamlessly
switched to a backup master site dynamically in case
of system failure. DSR also provides additional
indication e.g. failure detection, fault recovery, and
redundancy within the system to address to the user
in need. Mechanisms related to the Integrated Voice
and Data (IV&D) or data centric are all supported by
DSR.
18
CrossTalk Prevention
This feature prevents crosstalk scenarios from
happening, especially when a wideband antenna is
used. This feature allows the adjustment of the
internal SSI clock rate of the radio. This subsequently
reduces the possibility of radio frequency interfering
spurs and prevents the issues of crosstalk.
Encrypted Integrated Data (EID)
EID provides security encryption and authentication
of IV&D data bearer service communication between
the radio and the Customer Enterprise Network.
SecureNet
SecureNet allows user to perform secured
communications on an Analog or Motorola Data
Communication (MDC) channel. The MDC Over-theAir Rekeying (OTAR) feature will allow users to
perform OTAR activities on an MDC channel.
Conventional Talkgroup and Radio Scan Enhancements
A few enhancements have been made to the
Conventional Talkgroup at the system. These
enhancements improve the Scan feature operation
significantly when multiple agencies are using a
English
Getting Started
single conventional radio frequency channel. These
enhancements allow users to use Selective Squelch
to operate on only the subset of talkgroups that are
relevant to the users rather than all talkgroups on the
channel. These Scan improvements have been made
to eliminate the audio holes that were present and to
turn on the busy LED when activity is present on the
channel. Mixed Vote Scan and Standard
Conventional Scan configurations are supported.
Priority Operation is also supported.
Up to 30 different talkgroups can be supported using
conventional channels. A maximum of four talkgroups
can be supported when Vote Scan channels are
being used.
Smart PTT is supported with this enhancement as
Smart PTT prevents users from transmitting while
other users are on the channel.
Note
User Selectable Talkgroups are not
compatible with this Conventional Talkgroup
Enhancement.
What Your Dealer/System Administrator Can Tell You
Check with your dealer or system administrator for
the correct radio settings, if the radio is to be
operated in extreme temperatures (less than -30 °C
or more than +60 °C).
You can consult your dealer or system administrator
about the following:
• Is your radio programmed with any preset
conventional channels?
• Which buttons have been programmed to access
other features?
What optional accessories may suit your needs?
•
Note
Specifications may vary for different radio
models. Check with your dealer or system
administrator for more information.

Preparing Your Radio for Use
Preparing Your Radio for Use
Charging the Battery
Warning
To avoid a possible explosion:
• Do not replace the battery in any area
labeled
• Do not discard batteries in a fire.
The Motorola-approved battery shipped with your
radio is uncharged. Prior to using a new battery,
charge it for a minimum of 16 hours to ensure
optimum capacity and performance. For a list of
Motorola-authorized batteries and chargers available
for use with your radio, see Accessories on page
182.
Note
When charging a battery attached to a radio,
