Accessing the Programmed Functions

PTT

Button

Push-To-Talk (PTT) Button

You can access various radio functions through one of the following ways:

• A short or long press of the

relevant programmable buttons.

• Use the Menu Navigation Buttons as follows:

1 To access the menu, press the S button. Press the

appropriate Menu Scroll button (Por Q) to access the menu functions.

2 To select a function or enter a sub-menu, press the N

button.

3 To go back one menu level, or to return to the previous

screen, press the R button. Long press the R button to return to the Home screen.

The Menu Navigation Buttons are also available on a keypad microphone (see Using the Keypad on page 72).

NOTE: Your radio automatically exits the menu after a period

of inactivity and returns to your Home screen.

Identifying Radio Controls

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

• While a call is in progress,

the PTT button allows the radio 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 18).

If the Talk Permit Tone (see Turning the Talk Permit Tone On

or Off on page 67) or the PTT Sidetone is enabled, wait

until the short alert tone ends before talking.

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.

English

You will also hear the Channel Free Indication tone if your

Channel Rocker

call is interrupted, for example when the radio receives an Emergency Call.

You can turn off the Channel Free Indication tone or the

PTT Sidetone by disabling all radio tones and alerts (see Turning the Radio Tones/Alerts On or Off on

page 66).

Each channel in your radio can be configured as a conventional analog or conventional digital channel. Use the Channel Rocker to switch between an analog or a digital channel.

When switching from digital to analog mode, certain features are unavailable. Icons for the digital features (such as Messages) reflect this change by appearing ‘greyed out’. Disabled features are hidden in the menu.

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.

NOTE: Your radio also switches between digital and analog

modes during a dual mode scan (see Scan on page 30).

Capacity Plus

Capacity Plus 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 can only access channel(s) with Capacity Plus via the Channel Rocker, while features supported in Capacity Plus can be accessed via the menu and/or a programmable button press.

Icons of features not applicable to Capacity Plus will not be available in the menu. You will hear a negative indicator tone if you access a feature not applicable to Capacity Plus via a programmable button press.

Your radio also has features that are available in both conventional digital mode 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 system.

Scan

When you start a scan, your radio cycles through the programmed scan list for the current channel looking for voice activity.

The yellow LED blinks and you see the scan icon on the display.

During a dual mode scan, if you are on a digital channel, and your radio locks onto an analog channel, it automatically switches from digital mode to analog mode for the duration of the call. This is also true for the reverse.

There are two ways of initiating scan:

• Main Channel Scan (Manual): Your radio scans all the

channels/groups in your scan list. On entering scan, your radio may – depending on the settings – automatically start on the last scanned “active” channel/group or on the channel where scan was initiated.

• Auto Scan (Automatic): Your radio automatically starts

scanning when you select a channel/group that has Auto Scan enabled.

Responding to a Transmission During a Scan

During scanning, your radio stops on a channel/group where activity is detected. The radio stays on that channel for a programmed time period known as “hang time”.

Procedure:

1 If 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.

2 Press the PTT button during hang time. The green LED

lights up.

5 If you do not respond within the hang time, the radio returns

to scanning other channels/groups.

Deleting a Nuisance Channel

If a channel continually generates unwanted calls or noise

(termed a “nuisance” channel), you can temporarily remove the

unwanted channel from the scan list.

This capability does not apply to the channel designated as the

Selected Channel.

Procedure:

1 When your radio “locks on to” an unwanted or nuisance

channel, press the programmed Nuisance Channel Delete button until you hear a tone.

Contacts Settings

Contacts provides “address-book” capabilities on your radio. Each entry corresponds to an alias or ID that you use to initiate a call.

Each entry, depending on context, associates with one of five types of calls: Group Call, Private Call, All Call, PC Call or Dispatch Call.

PC Call and Dispatch Call are data-related. They are only available with the applications. Refer to the data applications documentation for further details.

NOTE: If the Privacy feature is enabled on a channel, you can

make privacy-enabled Group Call, Private Call, and All Call on that channel. Only target radios with the same Privacy Key OR the same Key Value and Key ID as your radio will be able to unscramble the transmission.

See Privacy on page 56 for more information.

Additionally, Contacts menu allows you to assign each entry to a programmable number key or more on a keypad microphone. If an entry is assigned to a number key, your radio can perform a

quick dial on the entry.

Privacy

If enabled, this feature helps to prevent eavesdropping by unauthorized users on a channel by the use of a softwarebased scrambling solution. The signaling and user identification portions of a transmission are not scrambled.

Your radio must have privacy enabled on the channel to send a privacy-enabled transmission, although this is not a necessary requirement for receiving a transmission. While on a privacyenabled channel, the radio is still able to receive clear (unscrambled) transmissions.

Your radio supports two types of privacy:

The LED lights up solid green while the radio is transmitting and blinks green rapidly when the radio is receiving an ongoing privacy-enabled transmission.

NOTE: Some radio models may not offer this Privacy feature.

Check with your dealer or system administrator for more information.

Procedure:

Press the programmed Privacy button to toggle privacy on or off. OR Follow the procedure below.

1 S to access the menu.

• Basic Privacy

• Enhanced Privacy.

Only ONE of the privacy types above can be assigned to the radio.

To unscramble a privacy-enabled call or data transmission, your radio must be programmed to have the same Privacy Key (for Basic Privacy), OR the same Key Value and Key ID (for Enhanced Privacy) as the transmitting radio.

If your radio receives a scrambled call that is of a different Privacy Key, OR a different Key Value and Key ID, you will

either hear a garbled transmission (Basic Privacy) or nothing at all (Enhanced Privacy).

If the radio has a privacy type assigned, the Home screen shows the secure or unsecure icon, except when the radio is sending or receiving an Emergency call or alarm.

IP Site Connect

This feature allows your radio to extend communication beyond the reach of a single site, by connecting to different available sites via an Internet Protocol (IP) network.

NOTE: This feature is not applicable in Capacity Plus.

When the radio moves out of range from one site and into the range of another, it connects to the new site's base station 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 base station 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 it.

NOTE: 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 channel(s) in the Members list during the automatic roam operation to locate the best site.

A Members list supports a maximum of 16 channels (including the Selected Channel).

NOTE: You cannot manually add or delete an entry to the

Members list. Check with your dealer or system administrator for more information.

Starting an Automatic Site Search

NOTE: The radio only scans for a new site if the current signal

is weak or when the radio is unable to detect any signal from the current site. If the RSSI value is strong, the radio remains on the current site.
