Getting Started
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:
An operational procedure, practice, or condition and
so on, which may result in injury or death if not
carefully observed.
CAUTION:
An operational procedure, practice, or condition and
so on, which may result in damage to the equipment
if not carefully observed.
NOTICE:
An operational procedure, practice, or condition and
so on, which is essential to emphasize.
Additional Performance Enhancement
The following performance enhancements are some of the
latest creations designed to enhance the security, quality,
and efficiency of the radios.
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 such as 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.
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
Send Feedback 21
Page 22
English
radio. This subsequently reduces the possibility of radio
frequency interfering spurs and prevents the issues of
crosstalk.
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 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.
NOTICE:
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?

presses of MFK toggle it to work on either the secondary or
primary feature.
The main display only shows the icon of secondary feature;
the main display does not show the icon of primary feature.
The secondary feature has an inactivity timer. This timer
starts when the secondary feature is left idle. Your radio
returns to primary feature when this timer expires.
If the MFK is set to operate only one feature other than
On/Off the radio, Volume Change should be the only
feature applied to MFK.
