BATTERY FEATURES

The RDM Series MURS Two-Way Radio provides Lithium-Ion batteries that come in different capacities that will define the battery life. It also offers the option to use Alkaline batteries.

About the Li-Ion Battery

The RDM Series MURS Two-Way Radio comes equipped with a rechargeable Li-Ion battery. This battery should be charged before initial use to ensure optimum capacity and performance.

Motorola batteries are designed specifically to be used with a Motorola charger and vice versa. Charging in non-Motorola equipment may lead to battery damage and void the battery warranty. 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 the radio. Motorola rapid-rate battery chargers contain a temperature-sensing circuit to ensure that batteries are charged within the temperature limits stated above.

Battery Recycling and Disposal

Li-Ion rechargeable batteries can be recycled. However, recycling facilities may not be available in all areas. Under various U.S. state laws and the laws of several other countries, batteries must be recycled and cannot be disposed of in landfills or incinerators. Contact your local waste management agency for specific requirements and information in your area. Motorola fully endorses and encourages the recycling of Li-Ion batteries. In the U.S. and Canada, Motorola participates in the nationwide Rechargeable Battery Recycling Corporation (RBRC) program for Li-Ion battery collection and recycling.

Many retailers and dealers participate in this program. For the location of the drop-off facility closest to you, access RBRC's Internet web site at:

http://www.call2recycle.org/

or call:

1-800-8-BATTERY

This internet site and telephone number also provides other useful information concerning recycling options for consumers, businesses and governmental agencies.

COMPUTER PROGRAMMING SOFTWARE

In addition to the features that can be configured in Basic and Advanced Configuration via the radio panel, the Computer Programming Software (CPS) can additionally configure Transmit Time-Out Timer, PL Reverse Burst, Alternate Battery Selection, Backlight settings, Buttons Reset, CPS Manager Lock, LED enabled/disabled, Power Up Text, and Edit Scan List.

The Programming Cable RKN4155 (sold separately) is required. The CPS Software is available for download at no cost at: www.motorola.com/RDX

To configure the radio using the CPS, connect the radio via the Drop-in Charger Tray and CPS Programming Cable as shown in the picture below.

Transmit Time-Out Timer

This timer sets the amount of time (60, 120 or 180 sec.) that the radio can continuously transmit before transmission is automatically terminated. A continuous tone is generated when this timer expires, indicating a time-out.

PL Reverse Burst

PL Reverse Burst causes a Private Line (PL) code to be sent at the end of a transmission once the PTT button is released. This sub-audible tone causes the receiving radio to mute its speaker before loss of a carrier is detected. Muting the speaker eliminates unwanted noise (squelch tail) during loss of carrier detection.

Choices available are: 180/240.

Alternate Battery Selection

The radio is capable of supporting multiple batteries solutions; therefore, the user can configure a battery type when using the accessory battery pack tray, only when the radio does not detect a valid battery type on its own. Choices available are: Alkaline, Nickel, and Lithium Ion.

RADIO CLONING

The RDM Series MURS Two-Way radio profiles from one radio (the "Source" radio) to a second radio (the "Target" radio) by using any one of these 3 methods:

• One Multi Unit Charger (optional accessory)
- Two Single Unit Chargers and a Radio-to-Radio cloning cable (optional accessory)
• the CPS (free software download)

Cloning with a Multi-Unit Charger (MUC)

The Source radio has to be in Pocket 1, 3 or 5 while the Source radio to be cloned has to be in Pockets 2, 4 or 6, matching in the MUCs pockets by pairs as follows: 1 and 2 or 3 and 4 or 5 and 6.

When cloning, the MUC does not need to be plugged into a power source, but ALL radios require charged batteries.

Reading Values Through Beeps and LED Indicators

As the RDM2020 model does not have a display to show the values that are being configured, the radio will communicate this information using beeps and LED indications.

Number Confirmation Beep LED Indication
0	Zero beep One short orange blink
1	One beep One short red blink
2	Two beeps Two short red blinks
3	Three beeps Three short red blinks
4	Four beeps Four short red blinks
5	Long beep One long red blink
6	Long beep and one beep One long and one short red blinks
7	Long beep and two beeps One long and two short red blinks
8	Long beep and three beeps One long and three short red blinks
9	Long beep and four beeps One long and four short red blinks

Reading Frequency Values

The Frequency value is only one digit as RDM Series MURS Two-Way radios have 5 predefined frequencies.

To read frequency values:

1. From "Idle" Advanced Configuration Mode, short press the PTT button to hear the first value (Refer to "Advanced Configuration (RDM2020 Model)" on page 44). This value corresponds to the frequency's first digit value.

graph TD
    A["1"] --> B["Frequency"]
    B --> C["First Digit"]
    C --> D["PTT"]
    C --> E["Long PTT"]
    F["PTT"] --> C
    G["Long PTT"] --> E

1. Short press the PTT button to read CTCSS/DPL values.

Reading CTCSS/DPL Values

When reading the values for CTCSS/PL Codes the radio signals the digit codes each time the PTT button is short pressed. The RDM Series have up to 213 codes available (Refer to "Frequency and Code Charts" on page 50).

The following is an example of the order in which the radio signals the "118" CTCSS/DPL code:

graph TD
    A["First Digit"] --> B["1"]
    B --> C["Second Digit"]
    C --> D["1"]
    D --> E["8"]
    E --> F["Third Digit"]

To read CTCSS/DPL Values:

1. Short press the PTT button. The radio signals the first digit "1".

2. Short press PTT button again and the radio signals the second digit "1".

3. Short press PTT again and radio signals the third digit "8".

Reading Auto-Scan Values

After finishing reading CTCSS/DPL codes, if you short press PTT once again, the radio takes you to Auto-Scan as per "Advanced Configuration (RDM2020 Model)" on page 44 (Step 3). Auto-Scan only has two values:

Radio Signal Value	Status
0	OFF
1	ON
Note: Auto-Scan is set to OFF by default.

Changing Values

Each time the radio signals and beeps, the current value can be changed by short pressing SB1 to increase or by short pressing SB2 to decrease. The radio will then signal the new setting it has been configured to.

To abort the value configured, turn the radio OFF or change channel using the channel knob.

If the radio “rolls-over” to the “Idle” Advanced Configuration Mode, the radio emits a “chirp” and radio LED starts blinking green again. All values that were changed are automatically saved.

Configuring a Frequency

Assuming current frequency value is set up to channel 1, with the MURs default frequency "1" (equivalent to 154.60000 MHz), and it will be changed to Frequency Number = "4" (which is mapped to 151.88000 MHz), follow the sequence below:

1. Enter Advanced Configuration Mode.
2. Short press the PTT button to enter Frequency Mode. Radio will signal current value "1" with one beep (a red blinks).
3. Press the SB1 button once to increase digit to "2" (two beeps & two red blinks).
4. Press the SB1 button once to increase digit to "3" (three beeps & three red blinks).
5. Press the SB1 button again to increase digit to "4" (four beeps & four red blinks).
6. Long press the PTT button. LED indicator will show a green heartbeat to indicate "Idle" state.
7. Long press the PTT button to exit Advanced Configuration Mode or turn the radio OFF.

Configuring a Code

Assuming current code value is set to factory default "001", and it will be changed to CTCSS/DPL Code = 103 follow the sequence below:

1. Enter Advanced Configuration Mode.
2. Short press the PTT button three times (Enter CTCSS/DPL Programming Selection Mode). Radio LED will blink orange to indicate that current value is "0".
3. Press the SB1 button once (to change first digit to "1") LED indicator blinks red.
4. Short press the PTT button (to move forward and program second digit). Radio LED blinks orange to indicate current value is "0".
5. Short press the PTT button and move ahead to program the third digit. LED indicator blinks red to indicate current value is "1".

6. Press the SB1 button to change the 'third digit' to "2". Press the SB1 button to change again this "third digit" to "3". The radio will signal the chosen value.

7. Long press the PTT button to save changes and return to "Idle" Advanced Configuration Mode. Once in "Idle" Advanced Configuration Mode, LED indicator will start blinking a green heartbeat.

8. Long press the PTT button to exit Advanced Configuration Mode.

Configuring Auto-Scan

Auto-Scan is the last Advanced Configuration Mode and can be set to "ON" or "OFF" on a particular channel.

To set Auto-Scan to "ON":

1. Enter Advanced Configuration Mode and select the desired channel.
2. Short press the PTT button six times to enter Auto-Scan Programming Selection Mode. The radio will signal beeps and will show the current Auto-Scan setting (refer to "Reading Auto-Scan Values" on page 47).
3. Short press the SB1 button to toggle ON/OFF the Auto-Scan feature in the channel. When ON radio LED will blink RED once. When OFF radio LED will blink ORANGE once.
