Important Safety Information

RF Energy Exposure and Product Safety Guide for Portable Two-Way Radios

ATTENTION!

 

This radio is restricted to Occupational use only.

Information

Before using the radio, read the RF Energy Exposure and

Product Safety Guide for Portable Two-Way Radios which

 

 

contains important operating instructions for safe usage

 

and RF energy awareness and control for Compliance

 

with applicable standards and Regulations.

 

For a list of Motorola-approved antennas, batteries, and

vi

Any modification to this device, not expressly authorized by Motorola, may void the user’s authority to operate this device.

Under Industry Canada regulations, this radio transmitter may only operate using an antenna of a type and maximum (or lesser) gain approved for the transmitter by Industry Canada. To reduce potential radio interference to other users, the antenna type and its gain should be so chosen that the equivalent isotropically radiated power (e.i.r.p.) is not more than that necessary for successful communication.

This radio transmitter has been approved by Industry Canada to operate with Motorola-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.

Firmware Version

All the features described in the following sections are supported by the radio's software version R01.01.01 of the radio.

Check with your dealer or system administrator for more details for all the features supported.

Handling Precautions

Handling Precautions

The MOTOTRBO CP200d Portable radio meets IP54 specifications with the antenna and dust cover attached. Your radio limits protection against dust and water exposure.

Keep your radio clean and exposure to water should be avoided to help ensure proper functionality and performance.

To clean the exterior surfaces of the radio, use a diluted

solution of mild dishwashing detergent and fresh water (i.e. one teaspoon of detergent to one gallon of water).

These surfaces should be cleaned whenever a periodic visual inspection reveals the presence of smudges, grease, and/or grime.

The effects of certain chemicals and their vapors can have harmful results on certain plastics. Avoid using aerosol sprays, tuner cleaners and other chemicals.

Charging the Battery

Your radio is powered by a Lithium-Ion (Li-lon) battery. To avoid damage and comply with warranty terms, charge the battery using a Motorola charger exactly as described in the charger user guide. Please ensure your radio remains powered off while charging.

Charge a new battery 14 to 16 hours before initial use for best performance.

Attaching the Battery

Ensure that the battery latch is unlocked before attaching the battery. Slide the battery latch to the right and slide downwards to unlock the battery. Align the battery to the battery rails on the back of the radio. Press the battery firmly to the radio and slide the battery upwards until the latch snaps into place to lock.

Battery Latch

Battery Latch

To remove the battery, turn the radio off. Move the battery latch into unlock position and hold. Slide the battery down and lift off the rails.

English

Attaching the Antenna

With the radio turned off, set the antenna in its receptacle and turn clockwise.

To remove the antenna, turn the antenna counterclockwise.

If the antenna needs to be replaced, ensure that only CP200d antennas are used. Neglecting this will damage your radio. See Antennas on page 34 for a list of available antennas.

Attaching the Belt Clip

Align the grooves on the clip with those on the battery and press downwards until you hear a click.

To remove the clip, press the belt clip tab away from the battery using a key. Then slide the clip upwards and away from the radio.

Push-To-Talk (PTT) Button

The PTT button on the side of the radio serves two basic purposes:

While a call is in

 

progress, the PTT

PTT

button allows the radio

Button

to transmit to other

 

radios in the call.

 

Press and hold down

 

PTT button to talk.

 

Release the PTT

 

button to listen.

 

The microphone is

 

activated when the PTT button is pressed.

While a call is not in progress, the PTT button is used to make a new call (see Making a Radio Call on page 15).

Depending on programming, if the Talk Permit Tone or the PTT

Sidetone is enabled, wait until the short alert tone ends before talking.

English

During a call, if the Channel Free Indication feature is

enabled on your radio (programmed by your dealer), you will hear a short alert tone the moment the target radio (the radio that is receiving your call) releases the PTT button, indicating the channel is free for you to respond.

You will also hear a continuous talk prohibit tone, if your

call is interrupted, indicating that you should release the PTT button, for example when the radio receives an Emergency Call.

Switching Between Conventional Analog and

Digital Mode

Each channel in your radio

can be configured as a

Channel Selector Knob

conventional analog or

 

conventional digital channel.

 

NOTE: For Analog-only radios, each channel

can only be configured as a conventional analog channel.

Use the Channel Selector

Knob to switch between an analog or a digital channel.

When switching from digital to analog mode, certain features are unavailable.

Your radio also has features available in both analog and digital mode. However, the minor differences in the way each feature works does NOT affect the performance of your radio. A Software License Key sold separately is required to upgrade analog-only radios to digital radios.

NOTE: Your radio also switches between digital and analog modes during a dual mode scan (see Scan on page 21).

Channel Selector

Knob

Procedure:

Turn the Channel Selector Knob to select the number that represents the channel, subscriber ID, or group ID.

Receiving and Responding to a Radio Call

Once the channel, subscriber ID, or group ID is set, you can proceed to receive and respond to calls.

LED Indicator

The LED lights up solid green while the radio is transmitting and blinks when the radio is receiving.

The LED lights up solid green while the radio is transmitting.

The radio double blinks green when receiving a privacy-enabled call and blinks green when receiving a non-privacy call.

To unscramble a privacy-enabled call, your radio

must have the same Privacy Key, OR the same Key Value and Key ID (programmed by your dealer) as

the transmitting radio (the radio you are receiving the call from).

NOTE: See Privacy on page 28 for more information.

Receiving and Responding to a Group Call

To receive a call from a group of users, your radio must be configured as part of that group.

1The LED blinks green. Your radio unmutes and the incoming call sounds through the radio's speaker.

2To respond, hold the radio vertically 1 to 2 inches (2.5 to 5.0 cm) from your mouth.

3If the Channel Free Indication feature is enabled, you

will hear a short alert tone the moment the transmitting radio releases the PTT button, indicating the channel is free for you to respond.

Press the PTT button to respond to the call.
