Advantages Of Trunking
Trunking allows many users to share a fixed number of communication channels without interfering with one another. Telephone
companies for years have used trunking to make the most efficient
use of their equipment, and similar trunking methods have been
adapted to two-way radio communication.
A trunked radio system allows a large number of users to share a
relatively small number of frequencies. When an operator establishes communication with someone else in the system, the system automatically assigns a communication path - a repeater and
its frequency. Once the conversation has ended, the repeater is
freed for other users. Trunking pools all the repeater air time, and
this maximizes the amount of air time available to any one mobile
unit and minimizes channel congestion.
Some of the key benefits of trunked two-way radio systems are:
♦
No channel monitoring required prior to transmission
♦ Fast system access
♦ Automatic channel selection
♦ Privacy among members of the same group
8 Product Introduction
Getting Started 2
Radio/Antenna Identification
An information label is attached to the back of your radio (chassis),
just under the battery contacts. A radio model number is shown on
this label. A typical model number might be H01UCC6DU3AN.
The fourth position of the model number (in this case “U”) identifies the operating frequency band of the radio. Table 1 lists all
fourth-position alpha characters and corresponding frequency
band.
Table 1 Radio Operating Frequency
Getting Started
Fourth-Position
Character
U 806-870MHz
W 896-941MHz
Antennas are frequency sensitive and are color coded according to
the frequency range of the antenna. The color code indicator is the
insulator in the center of the base of the antenna. The illustrations
and Antenna Identification Chart (page 10) will help identify the
antenna, antenna frequency range, and corresponding color code.
Refer to Table 1, “Radio Operating Frequency,” on page 9 and
Table 2, “Antenna Identification Chart,” on page 10 to ensure that
the match between your radio and antenna is correct.

chirp tone. This indicates the radio
should be serviced immediately.
2. The unit automatically operates dependant on current switch
settings. Set the volume by turning the on/off/volume control
clockwise. One half turn equals about 50% output.
Receiving
Trunked Modes and Conventional Channels
1. Turn the radio on and select the desired mode and group for
trunking, or desired mode and channel for conventional.
2. Listen until you hear a transmission, then adjust the volume
control for a comfortable listening level.
3. Your radio is now set to receive calls on the selected mode.
NOTE: If the mode selector knob and the 3-

on an unprogrammed position (blank
position), you will hear an “invalid
Basic Operation
Basic Operation 19
mode” tone until the mode selector
knob and 3-position toggle switch select a programmed (valid) position.
NOTE: If the channel is busy during conven-
tional operation, the radio’s red LED
will blink in receive operation.
NOTE: The red LED will blink if a low-battery

change the group or mode, press the PTT, or press any valid button.
Monitoring a Conventional Channel
1. To unsquelch the radio while on a conventional channel, press
side button 3. This unmutes the speaker (if open squelch
monitor is programmed using RSS). You may then adjust the
volume with the on/off/volume control.
2. To place the radio in the permanent monitor mode, press and
hold side button 3 for approximately 2.5 seconds (time
programmable using RSS). The radio emits a brief high-pitched
tone as it enters the permanent monitor mode. To return the
radio to its original squelch state, one of the following can be
done: press side button 3 again, press the PTT (Push To Talk)
switch, change modes or channels, or turn the radio off and
on.
Transmitting on a Trunked System
1. Press the PTT switch.
2. If the dit-dit-dit talk permit tones (programmed using RSS) are
heard, continue to push the PTT switch and speak into the
microphone in a normal voice. The red LED indicator will stay
20 Basic Operation
on continuously to indicate that you are “on the air.”
3. If you hear other tone(s) when you push the PTT switch, the
radio is alerting you that certain system conditions exist. Refer
to Table 3, “MTX•LS Signals,” on page 17.
4. If your radio has the Time-Out-Timer function activated,
transmission will terminate if you hold down the PTT switch
for more than a preprogrammed time period (programmed
using RSS). When time-out occurs, a bonk alert tone sounds 4
seconds before the transmission is terminated. If the PTT
switch is not released within 4 seconds, the radio stops
transmitting and a continuous alert tone is generated until the
PTT switch is released. To resume transmitting, release the PTT
switch and push again.
Transmitting on a Conventional Channel
1. The red LED indicator will flash if there is another unit active
on the channel. Do not transmit if anyone else is using the
channel.
2. When you press the PTT, the red LED indicator will stay on
continuously to indicate that you are “on the air.” If you hear
tone(s) when you push the PTT switch, the radio is alerting
you that certain system conditions exist. Refer to Table 3,
“MTX•LS Signals,” on page 17.
3. If your radio has the Time-Out-Timer function activated,
transmission will terminate if you hold down the PTT button
for more than a preprogrammed time period (programmed
using RSS). When time-out occurs, a bonk alert tone sounds 4
seconds before the transmission is cut. If the PTT switch is not
released within 4 seconds, the radio stops transmitting and a
continuous alert tone is generated until the PTT switch is
released. To resume transmitting, release the PTT switch and
push again.
Smart PTT
Smart PTT is a per-channel feature which gives the system manager better control of radio operations. When smart PTT is activated
in your radio (using RSS), the user will not be able to transmit on
Basic Operation 21
an active channel. Three radio-wide variations of smart PTT are
available:
1. Transmit Inhibit on Busy Channel: With this feature enabled,
you will be inhibited from transmitting if any activity is
detected on the channel.
2. Transmit Inhibit on Busy Channel with Wrong Squelch Code:
With this feature enabled, you will be inhibited from
transmitting on an active channel with a squelch code other
than your own. If the squelch code is the same as yours, the
transmission will not be inhibited.
3. Quick-Key Override: This feature can work in conjunction
with variation one or two. With this feature enabled, you will
be able to override the transmit inhibit state by quick-keying
(two PTT activations within one second of each other) the
radio.
Smart PTT radio operation is exactly the same as standard radio operation, except that if you try to transmit (press PTT) on a Smart
PTT channel, a continuous alert tone is generated until the PTT is
released; the transmission is inhibited.
22 Basic Operation
Telephone Interconnect 5
Your MTX•LS radio is equipped with Telephone Interconnect,
which allows you to receive calls from landline telephones
through the trunking system central computer. Calls from the
landline user can be private or can include a whole group.
Keep in mind that a radio operator can either talk or listen at one
time, whereas the landline user has duplex (talk and listen) operation. This means a radio operator who is speaking will not hear an
interruption from the landline user. Therefore, the landline user
should be warned to listen for a beep (system dependent) before
speaking.
To Receive A Telephone Call
1. To make a call to the radio, the landline party will dial an
interconnect terminal phone number. If the system is busy,
the landline party hears a normal busy signal, and must hang
up and try again. If the phone line is open, the caller will hear
a tone (system dependent). The caller should then enter the
access code assigned to the desired radio unit. Both the
landline and the radio user will hear a ringing tone.
2. To answer, press the PTT and begin talking.
3. Keep these points in mind during your conversation:
◊ The landline user should be informed that you are using a
radio and that replies should be made only after you have
finished transmitting. The landline user will hear a soft
beep (system dependent) after you release the PTT switch.
Explain that only one person can talk at a time.
◊ If the landline user speaks while you are transmitting, you
will not hear them. Proceed with the conversation in a
normal two-way radio manner by pushing the PTT switch
Telephone
Telephone Interconnect 23
to transmit and releasing the PTT switch to listen.
NOTE: During phone, several users may share
the same ID. Therefore, courtesy must
be used when answering a call or during a phone conversation since multiple users can respond simultaneously.
4. To disconnect the call and return to dispatch operation, the
call will be terminated by the landline user or by the system
time-out timer.

MAEPF-22065-O
16-Position Switch
Scan is a feature that allows your MTX•LS portable radio to search
for, lock onto, and monitor activity on conventional channels or
trunked groups. For mode slaved scan, as many as sixteen modes
can be RSS programmed, which may include up to 14 trunked
modes or up to 10 conventional channels.
Three types of scan are available, Auto Group Scan, All Group
Scan, and Mode Slaved Scan. Auto Group Scan and All Group Scan
are LTR trunking features. Mode Slaved Scan is a trunking and conventional scan feature. All of the scan features in this radio are programmed using RSS, and are not front panel programmable.
Types of Scan
Auto Group Scan
In Auto Group Scan, only certain groups within the selected mode
(programmed via RSS) will be scanned. If a group is programmed
for this feature, scanning begins when that group is selected.
NOTE: The 16-position switch must be set to a
trunking mode, and the three-position
toggle switch placed in a position with
scan enabled (either A, B, and/or C)
for scanning to begin.

All Group Scan
In All Group Scan, all groups within the mode (selected via the 16position switch) will be scanned. If the mode selected is programmed with this feature, scanning begins with a long press (approximately 1.5 seconds - RSS programmable) of side button 1.
During All Group Scan, the LED double-blinks yellow. Exit scan by
changing modes, by a momentary press of side button 1, or by
turning the radio off.
Mode Slaved Scan
With this feature, a scan list is programmed directly to a mode (selected by the 16-position switch). Scanning begins with a short
(momentary) press and release of side button 1. During Mode
Slaved Scan, the LED blinks yellow. Exit scan by changing modes,
by a momentary press of side button 1, or by turning the radio off.
NOTE: An MTX•LS radio, Mode Slaved Scan,
can be RSS programmed per mode for
priority and non-priority scan. Priority
modes in the list are scanned more often than non-priority modes in the list.
Deleting Nuisance Modes
When the radio scans to a mode that you do not wish to hear (nuisance mode), you can temporarily delete the mode from the scan
list.
1. When the radio is locked onto the mode to be deleted, press
the nuisance mode delete button, side button 2. A valid key
tone is heard, indicating that the mode has been deleted.
Neither the priority mode nor the selected mode may be
deleted from the scan list.
2. The radio continues scanning the remaining modes in the list.
To resume scanning the deleted mode, you must exit and
reenter scan operation.

Care should be taken to avoid external short-circuiting of the battery.
A sustained high-rate discharge (for example,
a paper clip placed accidently across the
!
WARNING
battery contacts) may permanently damage
the battery, void the battery warranty, and
create a burn or fire hazard.
Memory Effect (Reduced Charge Capacity)
Memory effect is a phenomenon which causes a temporary loss in
battery capacity or voltage due to repetitive shallow discharging or
long-term overcharging. This memory effect has been virtually
eliminated from Motorola batteries through the use of new cell
technology.

Safety Standards
The Federal Communications Commission (FCC), has adopted a
safety standard for human exposure to radio frequency electromagnetic energy emitted by FCC regulated equipment. Motorola
subscribes to the same safety standard for the use of its products.
Proper operation of this radio will result in user exposure substantially below FCC recommended limits:
♦ Do not hold the radio with the antenna very
close to, or touching, exposed parts of the body,
especially the face, ears, or eyes, while transmitting. Hold the radio in a vertical position with the
microphone two to three inches away from the lips.
Safety Info
♦ Do not hold the transmit switch (PTT) on when not actually
desiring to transmit.
♦ Do not allow children to play with any radio equipment
containing a transmitter.
♦ Do not operate this equipment near electrical blasting caps or
in an explosive atmosphere. Under certain conditions, radios
can interfere with blasting operations. When you are in the
vicinity of construction work, look for, and observe signs
cautioning against radio transmission. If radio transmission is
prohibited, you must not transmit until out of the area.
Furthermore, you must turn off your radio to prevent any
accidental transmission.
♦ Do not replace or charge batteries in a hazardous atmosphere.
Contact sparking may occur while installing or removing
batteries and cause an explosion.
♦ Turn radio off when removing or installing a battery.
Safety Information 35
Anyone intending to use a radio in a hazardous area is advised to
become familiar with the subject of intrinsic safety and with Section 70 of the National Fire Code, which is commonly referred to
as Article 500 of the National Electric Code. Use of anything but
factory supplied components may affect the approval and safety of
the radio. Likewise, it is advised that servicing should be performed only by qualified personnel who adhere to the following

Factory Mutual Research Corporation
WARNING
Certain MTX•LS radios and batteries have been declared intrinsically safe by FMRC of Norwood, Massachusetts, for use in hazardous atmospheres. FM Approved radios are identified by attached
certification labels and by matching green dots found on the bottom of radios and batteries. The intrinsically safe rating by Factory
Mutual Research Corporation states that electrical equipment is
incapable of releasing sufficient electrical or thermal energy, under
normal or abnormal operating conditions, to cause ignition of a
specific hazardous atmosphere. This means the MTX•LS radio has
been thoroughly tested by Factory Mutual Research Corporation
and carries its certification for operation in the hazardous atmospheres designated on the radio label. Radios must ship from the
Motorola factory with the hazardous atmosphere capability and
cannot be modified in the field. Failure to use the radio with the
approved battery will negate the approval. MTX•LS radios that are
approved by Factory Mutual Research Corporation can be used in
those applications requiring reliable two way hand-held radios in
the listed specific hazardous atmospheres. Motorola approved
equipment and accessories, along with competitive equipment approvals, are listed in the yearly approval guide published by Factory Mutual Research Corporation. This guide can be ordered from
