IMPROVED AUDIO FEATURES

Low Level Expansion (LLE)
The LLE feature of your radio improves voice quality by reducing unwanted background noise when receiving a message. It is compatible with most major types of audio processing systems available today.
Companding
Companding is a feature that allows further improvement of voice quality. It compresses your voice at transmission, and expands it when receiving while simultaneously reducing extraneous noise. However, to enjoy this benefit, ALL transmitting and receiving radios must have this feature activated.
NOTE: Contact your dealer for your radio’s
current companding settings or to change the settings.

BATTERY INFORMATION

Battery Care and Tips
This product is powered by a rechargeable battery.
The following battery tips will help you obtain the highest performance and longest cycle life from your Motorola rechargeable battery.
Batteries are shipped uncharged from the factory. Always charge a new battery 14 - 16 hours before initial use, regardless of the status indicated by the charger.
Charging in non-Motorola equipment may lead to battery damage and void the battery warranty.
When charging a battery that is attached to the radio, turn the radio off to ensure a full charge.
The battery should be at about 77°F (25°C) (room temperature) whenever possible. Charging a cold battery, (below 50°F [10°C]) may result in
Charging a hot battery (above 95°F [35°C]) results in reduced discharge capacity, affecting the performance of the radio. Motorola rapid-rate battery chargers contain a temperature­sensing circuit to ensure that the battery is charged within these temperature limits.
New batteries can be stored up to two years without significant cycle loss. Store new/unused batteries in a cool dry area.
Batteries which have been in storage should be charged overnight.
Do not return fully charged batteries to the charger for an “extra boost”. This action will significantly reduce cycle life.
Do not leave your radio and battery in the charger when not charging. Continuous charging will shorten battery life. (Do not use your charger as a radio stand.)
11
English
For optimum battery life and operation use only Motorola brand chargers. They were designed to operate as an integrated energy system.
Charging your Battery
When the battery level is very low, you need to recharge the battery before you can continue
GETTING STARTED
to use your radio.
1. Place the radio with the battery attached or the battery alone in the charger.
2. The charger’s LED would indicate the charging progress.
NOTE: Because new batteries or batteries
that have not been used for several months could prematurely indicate full charge (solid green LED), charge the batteries for 14 to 16 hours prior to ini­tial use to achieve optimal perfor­mance.

RADIO CALL INFORMATION

RECEIVING A SELECTIVE CALL

Selective Call allows a radio user to communicate with a single unit without involving other units in conversation.
When you receive a selective call:
You will hear two alert tones.
The LED Indicator will light yellow.
To answer the call, press the PTT button.

RECEIVING A CALL ALERT™ PAGE

When your radio receives a Call Alert page, it sounds four alert tones continuously until you respond.
Press the PTT button to answer the Call Alert page, or press any other key to cancel it.
Note: Your radio will not receive any Selective
Calls until you clear the page.

EMERGENCY ALARMS

If programmed by your dealer, the orange Top button can send one of the following emergency alarms described below:
MDC Emergency Alarm (only if the signaling system you are on is MDC), and
Emergency Siren
Note: The MDC Emergency Alarm feature
gives you a one-button quick access to call a particular radio or center (pre­defined by your dealer) in emergency situations. When activated, the radio goes into an Emergency state, which can be programmed to
continually give visual and audio
feedback,
give no audio feedback, but with
visual feedback, or
give no audio/visual feedback, but
the radio can receive and transmit.

TALKAROUND

In your communications network, you may be using a repeater to cover a larger area than what is possible with your radio. However, you can communicate with another radio within your radio’s range without going through the repeater by using the Talkaround feature. This is especially useful when the repeater is down
Press the programmed Repeater/Talkaround button to toggle between the options of making or not making a call through the repeater. A positive indicator tone indicates that the radio is in talkaround mode, while a negative indicator tone indicates that the radio is in repeater mode.

SQUELCH

If a particular channel receives many unwanted calls coming from radios that do not belong to your communications group and are some distance away, or the “background noise” is excessive, you can try to filter these transmissions out by tightening the channel’s squelch. However, tightening squelch could cause calls from members of your communications group that are farther away to be filtered out as well.
English
20
To set the squelch level:
Press the programmed Squelch button to toggle between the options of having normal squelch or tightening the squelch of your radio. A positive indicator tone indicates that the radio is operating in tight squelch, while a negative indicator tone indicates that the radio is operating in normal squelch.

POWER LEVEL

You can transmit your calls at different transmit power levels. A higher level means you can reach a radio that is farther away. Lower power level conserves battery power. You are advised to transmit as frequently as possible on low power, and use high power only when needed.
Press the programmed Tx Power button to toggle between the options for High or Low power trans­mit level. A positive indicator tone indicates that the radio is operating in low power mode, while a negative indicator tone indicates that the radio is operating in high power mode.

SCAN

You can monitor several channels in order to receive any call that is transmitted on any of these channels. Sixteen different channels can be programmed into a scan list. Each channel can share the same scan list or have different scan lists assigned to them.
Once the radio’s scan operation is activated and the radio detects a call coming through a channel in its scan list, it switches to that channel for you to receive the call.

STARTING OR STOPPING A SCAN OPERATION

The LED Indicator will blink (green) during a scan operation. It will stop blinking when the radio switches to a channel.
Press the Scan button (see page 17) to start
1
a scan operation. Press the Scan button again to stop the scan
2
operation.

TALKBACK

If the programmable Talkback option is set, you can respond to any calls received during the scan operation by pressing the PTT button before the programmed hang-time ends. Check with your dealer for details.

DELETING A NUISANCE CHANNEL

If a channel continually generates unwanted calls/noise, you can temporarily remove it from the scan list by performing a Nuisance Channel Delete operation.
While the radio is on the Nuisance Channel,
1
press and hold the Scan button (see page
17
) until you hear a tone.
2 Release the Scan button.
Note: You cannot perform a Nuisance Chan-
nel Delete on a priority channel or if there is only one remaining channel in the scan list.

ADDING A DELETED NUISANCE CHANNEL BACK TO THE SCAN LIST

Press the Scan button (see page 17) to stop

the scan operation. Press the Scan button again to re-start the

scan operation.

SCAN CHANNEL DISCOVERY ALERT

Sometimes you need to know which channel the radio has switched to during a scan operation. The Scan Channel Discovery Alert gives you this information.
After you have stopped a scan operation, this feature gives you audio feedback when you select the last channel that was switched to by the scan operation.
To do this:
Stop the scan operation.
1
Turn the Channel Selector knob (see page
2
15) to change the channels.
3 When you reach the last channel the scan
operation switched to, the radio sounds an alert tone.

SCAN LIST MEMBER PRIORITY

A channel in your scan list may be prioritized (check with your dealer for details). In such a case, the radio will check that prioritized channel more frequently than the other non­prioritized channels.
Assuming a scan list with 6 channels, if all your channels are non-prioritized, the normal scan operation would check for activity in the following sequence:
