This radio is restricted to occupat ional use
only to satisfy FCC RF energy exposure
requirements. Before using this product, read
the RF energy awareness information and
operating instructions in the Product Safety
and RF Exposure booklet enclosed with your
radio (Motorola Publication part number
68P81095C98) to ensure compliance with RF
energy exposure limits.

ATTENTION!
.
This product is powered by a nickel-cadmium
(NICd), nickel-metal-hydride (NiMH), or
lithium-ion rechargeable battery. Charge the
battery before use to ensure optimum capacity
and performance. The battery was designed
specifically to be used with a Motorola charger.
Charging in non-Motorola equipment may lead
to battery damage and void the battery
warranty.
Note: When charging a battery attached to a
radio, turn your 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 leakage of electrolyte and
ultimately in failure of the battery. Charging a
hot battery (above 95°F [35°C]) results in
reduced discharge capacity, affecting the
performance of your radio. Motorola rapid-rate
battery chargers contain a temperaturesensing circuit to ensure that batteries are
charged within the temperature limits stated
above.

INTRODUCTION
Welcome to Motorola’s HT Series family of radio
users. This user guide supports HT1250•LS+
radios. These radios combine the very latest in
two-way technology while delivering outstanding
functionality at the touch of a button.
HT1250•LS+ portable radios operate on UHF /
VHF PassPort, LTR Trunked, and
Conventional radio systems.
Contact your Motorola dealer for a list of
features available with your radio.
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.
PassPort
PassPort is an enhanced trunking protocol
developed by Trident Micro Systems that
®
Trunked Systems
™
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. In addition, users with
PassPort-enabled radios can seamlessly roam
among all sites within the network. Seamless
roaming means that you do not have to
manually change the zones on your 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 only
for 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 LTR system. This method
of trunking provides system efficiency by
making repeaters available to all users after
every transmission.

INTRODUCTION
English
CONVENTIONAL RADIO SYSTEMS
Conventional radio systems typically refer to
unit-to-unit communications through a single
channel. Conventional systems also allow
radio users to extend communication coverage
by relaying their messages through a repeater.
To ensure coordinated use by multiple
talkgroups, each radio user must monitor the
channel or repeater before transmitting to
verify that the system is not currently busy.
