General Information

This user guide covers the operation of the PTX600
Series portable radios used on MPT1327 Trunked
Radio Systems. Please note that the location of the
system may affect the types of call which are
available. Please consult your network manager for
further information.

This user guide describes the operation of radios
with and without a keypad/display. On radios

without

a keypad/display the different types of call
described can only be selected via the Shortform

Radio Care

Avoid any physical abuse of the radio such as
carrying the radio by its antenna.

Wipe the battery contacts with a lint free cloth to
remove dirt, grease or any other material which may
prevent a good electrical contact of the battery
terminals to the radio.

The accessory connector is fitted with a protective
cap which should be left in place when the
connector is not in use.

The radio housing should be cleaned with a cloth
dampened with clean water, a mild liquid soap
solution or isopropyl alcohol.

Caution:

The use of chemicals such as detergents, alcohol
(except isopropyl), aerosol sprays, and petroleum
products may be harmful and damage the radio
housing.

Safety Information

During normal use, this radio will subject you to
radio energy substantially below the lev el where any
kind of harm is reported.

n

The handheld portable radio should be held in a
vertical position with the microphone 2.5 to 5 cm
(1 to 2 inches) from the mouth and the antenna
should be kept 2.5 to 5 cm (1 to 2 inches) from

Getting Started

Turning the Radio On/Off

Turn the radio on by rotating the combined ON/OFF/
VOLUME control (1) clockwise. The radio then
enters a self test routine. During the test the display
will be activated, the self test tone will sound, and
the LED will light green. If the r adio fails the self test
a continuous low tone will sound and the LED will
flash red or yellow. The radio is turned off by rotating
the volume control anticlockwise past the click stop.

Note:

your dealer.
When the self-test is complete the radio displays its

identity number (keypad/display radio only).
After this the radio will scan the system access with

the LED on the top of the radio flashing green and
the scanning icon lit.

When a control channel is acquired, the green LED
will go off and the scanning icon will be replaced by
the registered icon . This is known as the IDLE
STATE. The display will also show you your radio ID
number to the right of the display.

The radio must be in this state before y ou can mak e
or receive a call.

If the radio fails the self test routine, consult

Outgoing Calls

The radio is capable of making a variety of calls
including calls to individual radios or group of radios.

The radio can make calls by using Shortform
Dialling, or Dedicated Calls. Keypad radios can
also make calls using Manual Dialling.

When making a call note that the radio has a
maximum transmit timer. This appears on the right
of the display, replacing your radio ID. This prevents
excessive use on the tr affic channel by returning the
radio to the IDLE STATE (effectively cancelling the
call). T en seconds bef ore the radio returns to the idle
state the keyclick tone sounds.

Shortform Dialling

When the radio is in the IDLE STATE shortform
dialling may be used. This allows quick access to a
maximum of 16 preprogrammed numbers, with only
the first eight digits visible, using the shortform dial
position selector (2).

Depending on the way your radio is programmed,
the radio will display the number to be dialled.

The call request is sent by either pressing the PTT
key (8) or key.

Battery Tips

n

Do

initialize new batteries that have been stored for

prolonged periods by charging overnight (16 hours)

n

Do

charge batteries every 6 months during prolonged

storage.

n

Do

use a battery for at least 4 hours prior to recharg­ing. Remember, each time the battery is charged, one
cycle of life is used, and a battery has a limited number
of life cycles.

Do allow the battery to reach room temperature (at

n

least 1 hour) before placing it in the charger. Charge
Temperature Range: +5°C to +50°C.

n

Do take batteries out of a charger when they are fully
charged. Batteries allow ed to remain in the charger f or
extended periods lose valuable cycle life.

Do choose the right battery for every application.

n

Motorola offers a variety of batteries with different
sizes, capacities, and environmental use conditions.

n

Do dispose of used batteries properly and never
dispose of them in fire.

Do not charge a hot battery; if a battery is hot at the

n

beginning of charge, charge efficiency will be greatly
reduced. Nickel cadium batteries are most efficiently
charged at room temperature (25°C).

n

Do not fast charge a cold battery. Charging a cold bat­tery can cause excessive internal pressures, cell leak­age, and catastrophic failure.

n

Do not force discharge nick el cadium batteries beyond
on volt per cell. Excessive deep discharge can signifi­cantly reduce battery life.

n

Do not use chemical cleaners to clean batteries.
Clean batteries only with a mild soap and dry
thoroughly with a cloth.

Remember......Conserve Battery Life Cycles!

Any secondary battery has a limited number of cycles;

each time the battery is charged and discharged,

one cycle of battery life is used.

Intrinsically Safe Radio Information

FMRC Approved Equipment

Anyone intending to use a radio in a location where
hazardous concentrations of flammable material
exist (hazardous atmosphere) is advised to become
familiar with the subject of intrinsic safety and with
the National Electric Code NFPA 70 (National Fire
Protection Association) Article 500
(hazardous[classified] locations).

An Approval Guide, issued by Factory Mutual
Research Corporation (FMRC), lists manufacturers
and the products approved by FMRC f or use in such
locations. FMRC has also issued a voluntary
approval standard f or repair service (“Class Number
3605”).

FMRC Approval labels are attached to the radio to
identify the unit as being FM Approved for specified
hazardous atmospheres. This label specifies the
hazardous Class/Division/Group along with the part
number of the battery that must be used. Their
Approval mark is shown below.

Warning

n

Do not operate radio communications equipment in a
hazardous atmosphere unless it is a type especially
qualified (e.g. FMRC Approved) for such use. An
explosion or fire may result.

Do not operate the FMRC Approved Product in a haz-

n

ardous atmosphere if it has been physically damaged
(e.g. cracked housing). An explosion or fire may result.

n

Do not replace or charge batteries in a hazardous
atmosphere. Contact sparking may occur while install­ing or removing batteries and cause an explosion or
fire.

n

Do not replace or change accessories in a hazardous
atmosphere. Contact sparking may occur while install­ing or removing accessories and cause an explosion
or fire.

Do not operate the FMRC Approved Product unit in a

n

hazardous location with the accessory contacts
exposed. Keep the connector cover in place when
accessories are not used.

n

Do not disassemble the FMRC Approved Product unit
in any way that exposes the internal electrical circuits
of the unit.

n

Turn the radio off before removing or installing a bat­tery or accessory.

Intrinsically Safe Radio Information

Radios must ship from the Motorola manufacturing
facility with the hazardous atmosphere capability
and FM Approval labeling. Radios will not be
“upgraded” to this capability and labeled in the field.

2-Year Warranty

PTX600_UserBook Page 13 Thursday, July 3, 1997 9:54 AM

A modification changes the unit’s hardware from its
original design configuration. Modifications can only
be done by the original product manufacturer at one
of its FMRC audited manufacturing facilities.

Warning: Failure to use an FMRC Approved
Product unit with an FMRC Approved battery or
FMRC Approved accessories specifically approved
for that product may result in the dangerously
unsafe condition of an unapproved radio
combination being used in a hazardous location.

Warning: Unauthorized or incorrect modification of
an FMRC Approved Product unit will negate the
Approval rating of the product.

Repair of FMRC Approved Products
NOTE: REPAIRS FOR MOTOROLA FMRC

APPROVED PRODUCTS ARE THE
RESPONSIBILITY OF THE USER.

You may want to consider using a repair facility that
operates under 3605 repair service approval.

Warning: Incorrect repair or relabeling of any
FMRC Approved Product unit could adv ersely aff ect
the Approval rating of the unit.

Warning: Use of a radio that is not intrinsically safe
in a hazardous atmosphere could result in serious
injury or death.

FMRC’s Approval Standard Class Number 3605 is
subject to change at any time without notice to you,
so you may want to obtain a current copy of 3605
from FMRC. Per the July, 1995 publication of 3605,
some key definitions and service requirements are
as follows:

Repair

A repair constitutes something done internally to the
unit that would bring it back to its original condition
Approved by FMRC. A repair should be done in an
FMRC Approved facility.

Items not considered as repairs are those in which
an action is performed on a unit which does not
require the outer casing of the unit to be opened in a
manner which exposes the internal electrical circuits
of the unit. You do not have to be an FMRC
Approved Repair Facility to perform these actions.

Relabeling

The repair facility shall have a method by which the
replacement of FMRC Approval labels are
controlled to ensure that any relabeling is limited to
units that were originally shipped from the
Manufacturer with an FM Approval label in place.

FMRC Approval labels shall not be stocked by the
repair facility. An FMRC Approval label shall be
ordered from the original manufacturer as needed to

repair a specific unit. Replacement labels may be
obtained and applied by the repair facility providing
satisfactory evidence that the unit being relabeled
was originally an FMRC Approved unit. Verification
may include, but is not limited to: a unit with a
damaged Approval label, a unit with a defective
housing displaying an Approv al label, or a customer
invoice indicating the serial number of the unit and
purchase of an FMRC Approved model.

Do Not Substitute Options or Accessories

The communications equipment package that
Motorola submits to FMRC for testing and approval
is tested as a system that consists of the
communications unit itself and the battery, antenna
and other options or accessories that make up the
rest of the package to be approved. This approved
package must be strictly observed and there must
be no substitution of items, ev en if the substitute you
wanted to consider appears as an approved
accessory elsewhere in the Guide for some other
communications equipment unit. Approved
configurations are listed by FMRC Approved
Product in the annual Approval Guide published by
FMRC. That guide, and the Approval Standard
