not more than that necessary for successful
communication.
This radio transmitter has been approved by Industry
Canada to operate with Motorola Solutions-approved
antenna with the maximum permissible gain and required
antenna impedance for each antenna type indicated.
Antenna types not included in this list, having a gain
greater than the maximum gain indicated for that type, are
strictly prohibited for use with this device.

Handling Precautions
The MOTOTRBO Series Digital Portable radio meets IP67
specifications, allowing your radio to withstand adverse
field conditions such as being submersed in water. This
section describes some basic handling precautions.
CAUTION:
Do not disassemble your radio. This could damage
radio seals and result in leak paths into the radio.
Radio maintenance should only be done in service
depot that is equipped to test and replace the seal
on the radio.
• If your radio has been submersed in water, shake your
radio well to remove any water that may be trapped
inside the speaker grille and microphone port. Trapped
water could cause decreased audio performance.
• If your radio's battery contact area has been exposed to
water, clean and dry battery contacts on both your radio
and the battery before attaching the battery to radio.
The residual water could short-circuit the radio.
• If your radio has been submersed in a corrosive
substance (for example, saltwater), rinse radio and
battery in fresh water then dry radio and battery.
To clean the exterior surfaces of your radio, use a
•
diluted solution of mild dishwashing detergent and fresh
water (for example, one teaspoon of detergent to one
gallon of water).
• Never poke the vent (hole) located on the radio chassis
below the battery contact. This vent allows for pressure
equalization in the radio. Doing so may create a leak
path into radio and your radio's submersibility may be
lost.
• Never obstruct or cover the vent, even with a label.
• Ensure that no oily substances come in contact with the
vent.
• Your radio with antenna attached properly is designed
to be submersible to a maximum depth of 1 m (3.28 ft)
and a maximum submersion time of 30 minutes.
Exceeding either maximum limit or use without antenna
may result in damage to your radio.
• When cleaning your radio, do not use a high pressure
jet spray on radio as this will exceed the 1 m depth
pressure and may cause water to leak into your radio.
16
Introduction
English
This user guide covers the operation of your radios.
Your dealer or system administrator may have customized
your radio for your specific needs. Check with your dealer
or system administrator for more information.
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?
•
• What are the best radio usage practices for effective
communication?
• What maintenance procedures that helps promote
longer radio life?
Icon Information
Throughout this publication, the icons described are used
to indicate features supported in either the conventional
analog or conventional digital mode.
Indicates a conventional Analog Mode-Only feature.

guide.
All chargers can charge only Motorola Solutions
authorized batteries. Other batteries may not charge.
Charge a new battery 14 to 16 hours before initial
•
use for best performance.
Motorola Solutions recommends that your radio
remains powered off while charging. Batteries
charge best at room temperature.
• Charge your IMPRES™ battery with an IMPRES
charger for optimized battery life and valuable
battery data. IMPRES batteries charged exclusively
with IMPRES chargers receive a 6-month capacity
warranty extension over the standard Motorola
Solutions Premium battery warranty duration.
Attaching the Battery
Follow the procedure to attach the battery to your radio.

conventional analog or conventional digital channel.

not affect the performance of your radio.
IP Site Connect
This feature allows your radio to extend conventional
communication beyond the reach of a single site by
connecting to different available sites by using an Internet
Protocol (IP) network. This is a conventional multi-site
mode.
When the radio moves out of range from one site and into
the range of another, the radio connects to the repeater of
the new site to send or receive calls or data transmissions.
This is done either automatically or manually depending on
your settings.
In an automatic site search, the radio scans through all
available sites when the signal from the current site is weak
or when the radio is unable to detect any signal from the
current site. The radio then locks on to the repeater with
the strongest Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI)
value.
In a manual site search, the radio searches for the next site
in the roam list that is currently in range but which may not
have the strongest signal and locks on to the repeater.
NOTICE:
Each channel can only have either Scan or Roam
enabled, not both at the same time.
Channels with this feature enabled can be added to a
particular roam list. The radio searches the channels in the
roam list during the automatic roam operation to locate the
best site. A roam list supports a maximum of 16 channels,
including the selected channel.

Capacity Plus–Single-Site
Capacity Plus–Single-Site is a single-site trunking
configuration of the MOTOTRBO radio system, which uses
a pool of channels to support hundreds of users and up to
254 Groups. This feature allows your radio to efficiently
utilize the available number of programmed channels while
in Repeater Mode.
You hear a negative indicator tone if you try to access a
feature not applicable to Capacity Plus–Single-Site by
using a programmable button press.
Your radio also has features that are available in
conventional digital mode, IP Site Connect, and Capacity
Plus. However, the minor differences in the way each
feature works does not affect the performance of your
radio.
Check with your dealer or system administrator for more
information on this configuration.
Capacity Plus–Multi-Site
Capacity Plus–Multi-Site is a multi-channel trunking
configuration of the MOTOTRBO radio system, combining
the best of both Capacity Plus and IP Site Connect
configurations.
Capacity Plus–Multi-Site allows your radio to extend
trunking communication beyond the reach of a single site,
by connecting to different available sites which are
connected with an IP network. It also provides an increase
in capacity by efficiently utilizing the combined available
number of programmed channels supported by each of the
available sites.
When the radio moves out of range from one site and into
the range of another, it connects to the repeater of the new
site to send or receive calls/data transmissions. Depending
on your settings, this is done automatically or manually.
If the radio is set to do this automatically, it scans through
all available sites when the signal from the current site is
weak or when the radio is unable to detect any signal from
the current site. It then locks on to the repeater with the
strongest RSSI value.
In a manual site search, the radio searches for the next site
in the roam list that is currently in range (but which may not
have the strongest signal) and locks on to it.

Any channel with Capacity Plus–Multi-Site enabled can be
added to a particular roam list. The radio searches these
channels during the automatic roam operation to locate the
best site.
NOTICE:
You cannot manually add or delete an entry to the
roam list. Check with your dealer or system
administrator for more information.
Similar to Capacity Plus–Single Site, icons of features not
applicable to Capacity Plus–Multi-Site are not available in

access a feature not applicable to Capacity Plus–Multi-Site
by using a programmable button press.
