SAFETY

1. Do NOT operate your radio, without a handsfree kit, whilst driving a
vehicle.

2. Do NOT operate your radio in an explosive atmosphere.
Obey the 'Turn Off Two-way Radios' signs where these are posted, e.g.
on a petrol station forecourt.

3. Do NOT touch the antenna while the radio is transmitting.

4. Do NOT operate the radio if the antenna has become disconnected or
damaged.

HINTS FOR USING THE RADIO

• When speaking, hold the microphone a few centimetres from your mouth and
speak across it, rather than into it.

• Keep the length of your conversation to a minimum and replace the microphone
on its cradle after use.

• When it is possible to move location, avoid making calls from known poor signal­strength areas such as the radio systems fringe areas (limit of range) or from
screened or shadowed areas, e.g. an underground car park or underpass.

• To avoid unnecessary drain on the vehicle battery, keep the engine running when
using the radio for extensive periods of time.

1. INTRODUCTION

1.1 OVERVIEW

The SRM9000 Series Radios are versatile Digital Signal Processor (DSP) controlled,
two-way mobile radios. The SRM9000 Series is available in a number of frequency
bands and versions for specific applications. This manual describes the operation of
the SRM9022 TMR Controller Microphone variant.

The radio consists of a Transceiver unit that may be mounted in the vehicle boot or
under a seat, and a Controller Microphone, which is designed to mount on the
vehicle console or within view and reach of the operator.

The radio is software programmable and can be customised to the operational
requirements of your particular fleet. Your TMC Radio representative can help in
programming your radio facilities to meet your present and future requirements.

This guide describes the facilities that are currently available and can be
programmed into the SRM9022.

1.2 INSTALLATION

As the installation of your SRM9022 Radio is a technical and possibly hazardous
operation, we recommend that it is installed and set up for use by your dealer or an
authorised installer. However, if you need information regarding the correct
procedures for installation, please refer to the SRM9000 Series Installation
Instructions supplied with the radio.

1.3 CONVENTIONS

Where the word “generally” or “may” is used to describe a facility, this operation is an
option that may be enabled with the Radio Field Personality Programmer (FPP).

3. MENU SYSTEM

The SRM9022 radio software uses a programmed Menu structure to enable the
operator to access all of the radio options. The structure of the menu (comprising up
to thirteen screens) can be programmed to meet the specific needs of individual
customers. Figure 2 illustrates a complete menu structure of the radios capabilities.

Any or all of the Screens can be programmed or hidden with the following provisos:
The Phone Book Screen is always the default Screen displayed.
The Main Menu provides access to the usual Screens required to operate the radio.
The Setup Sub Menus provides access to the radios setup parameters.
When options are placed in a Setup sub-menu, Setup should be defined as one of

the selections in the Main Menu.
Both the Main Menu and the Setup sub-menus can each hold up to ten Screens.
Programming can allow any menu to be in any position.

3.1 MENU NAVIGATION

The / keys are generally used to navigate through menus, or increase/decrease
a value.
