Fixed Site Antennas
•Install antennas at the center of the roof
or the center of the trunk deck. These
mobile antenna installation guidelines
are limited to metal body vehicles.
•The antenna installation must addition-
ally be in accordance with:
a. The requirements of the antenna manu-
facturer/supplier
b. Instructions in the Radio Installation
Manual
•Use only Motorola approved supplied
antenna or Motorola approved replacement antenna. Unauthorized antennas,
modifications, or attachments could damage the radio and may violate FCC regulations.
Approved Accessories
For a list of Motorola approved antennas see
the appendix of this user manual.
If mobile radio equipment is installed at a fix ed
location and operated as a control station or as
a fixed unit, the antenna installation must
comply with the following requirement s in order
to ensure optimal performance and compliance
with the RF energy exposure limits in the
above standards and guidelines.
•The antenna should be mounted outside
the building on the roof or a tower if at all
possible.
•As with all fixed site antenna installations, it
is the responsibility of the licensee to manage the site in accordance with applicable
regulatory requirements and may require
additional compliance actions such as site
survey measurements, signage, and site
access restrictions in order to insure that
exposure limits are not exceeded.

ELECTROMAGNETIC
INTERFERENCE/COMPATIBILITY
NOTE: Nearly every electronic device is sus-
ceptible to electromagnetic interference (EMI) if inadequately shielded,
designed or otherwise configured for
electromagnetic compatibility . It may be
necessary to conduct compatibility
testing to determine if any electronic
equipment used in or around vehicles
or near fixed antenna sites is sensitive
to external RF energy and if any procedures need to be followed to eliminate
or mitigate the potential for interaction
between the radio transmitter and the
equipment or device.
Facilities
To avoid electromagnetic interference and/or
compatibility conflicts, turn off your radio in
any facility where posted notices instruct
you to do so. Hospitals or health care facilities
may be using equipment that is sensitive to
external RF energy.
Vehicles
To avoid possible interaction b etween the ra dio
transmitter and any vehicle electronic control
modules, for example, ABS, engine, or
transmission controls, we recommend that the
radio be installed by an experienced installer
and that the following precautions be used
when installing the radio:
1. Refer to any manuf acturers instructions
or other technical bulletins or
recommendations on radio installation.
2. Before installing the radio, determine
the location of the electronic control
modules and their harness es in the
vehicle.
3. Route all radio wiring, including the
antenna transmission line, as far away
as possible from the electronic control
units and associated wiring.

Driver Safety
!
!
Potentially Explosive Atmospheres
Check the laws and regulations on the use of
radios in the area where you drive. Always
obey them.
When using your radio while driving, please:
• Give full attention to driving and to the
road.
• Pull off the road and park before making
or answering a call if driving conditions
so require.
OPERATIONAL WARNINGS
For Vehicles With an Air Bag
Do not place a mobile radio in the area o v er an
air bag or in the air bag deployment area. Air
bags inflate with great f orce. If a mobile r adio is
placed in the air bag deployment area and the
air bag inflates, the radio ma y be propelled with
great force and cause serious injury to
occupants of the vehicle.
W A R N I N G
Turn off your radio prior to entering any
area with a potentially explosive
atmosphere. Sparks in a potentially
explosive atmosphere can cause an
explosion or fire resulting in bodily inju ry
or even death.
The areas with potentially explosive
atmospheres referred to above include fueling
areas such as below decks on boats, fuel or
chemical transfer or storage facilities, areas
where the air contains chemicals or particles,
such as grain, dust or metal powders, and any
other area where you would normally be
advised to turn off your vehicle engine. Areas
with potentially explosive atmospheres are
often but not always posted.
Blasting Caps and Areas
To avoid possible interference with blasting
operations, turn off your radio when you are
near electrical blasting caps , in a b lasting area,
or in areas posted: “Turn off two-way radio.”
Obey all signs and instructions.
For radios installed in vehicles fuelled by
liquefied petroleum gas, refer to the (U.S.)

INTRODUCTION
Welcome to Motorola’s
CDM Series family of
radio users. The
CDM1550•LS
Intelligent Radio,
combines the very latest
in two-way technology
while delivering
outstanding functionality at the touch of a
button.
The CDM1550•LS
+
mobile radio operates on
PassPort and LTR trunked and conventional
radio systems.
TRUNKED RADIO SYSTEMS
Trunked systems allow a large number of users
to share a relatively small number of
frequencies or repeaters without interfering
with each other . The airtime of all the repeaters
in a trunked system is pooled, which
maximizes the amount of airtime available to
any one radio and minimizes channel
congestion.

, the
PassPort
™
Trunked Systems
PassPort is an enhanced trunking protocol
developed by Trident Micro Systems that
supports wide area dispatch networking. A
network is formed by linking several trunked
sites together to form a single system. This
offers users an extended communication
coverage area. Additionally, users with
PassP ort can seamlessly roam among all sites
within the network. Seamless roaming m ea ns
that the radio user does not have to manually
change the zones on the radio when roaming
from site-to-site.
™
LTR
Trunked Systems
LTR is a transmission based trunking protocol
developed by the E. F. Johnson Company for
primarily single site trunking applications. In
transmission trunking, a repeater is used for
only the duration of a single transmission.
Once a transmission is completed, that
repeater becomes available to other users.
This means that a conversation comprised of
many transmissions may occur over several
different channels within the LT R syste m . This
method of trunking provides system efficiency

by making repeaters available to all users after
every transmission.
CONVENTIONAL RADIO SYSTEMS
Conventional r adio systems typically refers to
unit-to-unit communications through a single
channel. Conventional systems also allow
radio users to e xtend communicatio n cov erage
by relaying their messag es through a repeater.
To ensure coordinated use by multiple
talkgroups, each radio user must monitor the
channel or repeater befor e transmitting to
verify that the system is not currently busy.
