1.2 RF ENERGY EXPOSURE AWARENESS AND CONTROL INFORMATION FOR FCC OCCUPATIONAL USE REQUIREMENTS Before using the two-way mobile radio, review the following important RF energy awareness and control information and operational instructions. Comply with this information and instructions to ensure compliance with RF exposure guidelines.

This radio is intended for use in occupational/controlled conditions, where users have full knowledge of their exposure and can exercise control over their

exposure to remain below RF exposure limits. This radio is NOT authorized for general population, consumer, or any other use.

WARNING Changes or modifications not expressly approved by L3Harris could void the user's authority to operate the equipment. —>

This two-way radio uses electromagnetic energy in the radio frequency (RF) spectrum to provide communications between two or more users over a distance. lt uses RF energy or radio waves to send and receive calls. RF energy is one form of electromagnetic energy. Other forms include, but are not limited to, electric power, sunlight, and x-rays. RF energy, however, should not be confused with these other forms of electromagnetic energy, which, when used improperly, can cause biological damage. Very high levels of x-rays, for example, can damage tissues and genetic material.

Experts in science, engineering, medicine, health, and industry work with organizations to develop standards for exposure to RF energy. These standards provide recommended levels of RF exposure for both workers and the general public. These recommended RF exposure levels include substantial margins of protection. All two-way radios marketed in North America are designed, manufactured, and tested to ensure they meet government-established RF exposure levels. In addition, manufacturers also recommend specific operating instructions to users of two- way radios. These instructions are important because they inform users about RF energy exposure and provide simple procedures on how to control it. Refer to the following websites for more information on what RF energy exposure is and how to control exposure to assure compliance with established RF exposure limits:

http://www.fcc.gov/oet/rfsafety/rf-fags.html http://www.osha.gov./SLTC/radiofrequencyradiation/index.html

FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION REGULATIONS Before it was marketed in the United States, the XL-85M Series mobile radio was tested to ensure compliance with FCC RF energy exposure limits for two-way mobile radios. When two-way radios are used as a consequence of employment, the FCC requires users to be fully aware of and able to control their exposure to meet occupational requirements. Exposure awareness can be facilitated using a label directing users to specific user awareness information. The radio has an RF exposure product label. Also, this manual includes information and operating instructions required to control RF exposure and to satisfy compliance requirements.

COMPLIANCE WITH RF EXPOSURE STANDARDS The XL-85M Series mobile radio is designed and tested to comply with a number of national and international standards and guidelines regarding human exposure to RF electromagnetic energy. This radio complies with the IEEE and ICNIRP exposure limits for occupational/controlled RF exposure environment at duty-cycle times of up to 50% (50% transmit, 50% receive), and it is authorized by the FCC for occupational use. In terms of measuring RF energy for compliance with the FCC exposure guidelines, the radio’s antenna radiates measurable RF energy only while it is transmitting (talking), not when it is receiving (listening), or in a standby mode.

The XL-85M Series mobile radio complies with the following RF energy exposure standards and guidelines:

° United States Federal Communications Commission (FCC), Code of Federal Regulations; 47 CFR $ 2 sub-part J.

American National Standards Institute (ANSI)/Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE) C95.1-2005.

Always use only authorized accessories (antennas, control heads, speakers/mics, etc.). Use of unauthorized accessories can cause the FCC RF exposure compliance requirements to be exceeded.

The information listed above provides the user with information needed to make him or her aware of a RF exposure, and what to do to assure that this radio operates within the FCC exposure limits of this radio.

COMMON HAZARDS WARNING The operator of any mobile radio should be aware of certain hazards common to

the operation of vehicular radio transmissions. Possible hazards include but are not limited to the following:

Explosive Atmospheres — Just as it is dangerous to fuel a vehicle while its engine is running, be sure to turn the radio OFF while fueling the vehicle. If the radio is mounted in the trunk of the vehicle, DO NOT carry containers of fuel in the trunk.

Areas with potentially explosive atmosphere are often, but not always, clearly marked. Turn the radio OFF when in any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere. It is rare, but not impossible that the radio or its accessories could generate sparks.

Interference To Vehicular Electronic Systems — Electronic fuel injection systems, electronic anti-skid braking systems, electronic cruise control systems, etc., are typical of the types of electronic devices that can malfunction due to the lack of protection from radio frequency (RF) energy present when transmitting. lf the vehicle contains such equipment, consult the dealer for the make of vehicle and enlist his aid in determining if such electronic circuits perform normally when the radio is transmitting.

Electric Blasting Caps — To prevent accidental detonation of electric blasting caps, DO NOT use two-way radios within 1000 feet (305 meters) of blasting operations. Always obey the “Turn Off Two-Way Radios” (or equivalent) signs posted where electric blasting caps are being used. (OSHA Standard: 1926.900).

Radio Frequency Energy — To prevent burns or related physical injury from radio frequency energy, do not operate the transmitter when anyone outside of the vehicle is within the

minimum safe distance from the antenna as specified in Table 1-1. Refer to Section 1.2 for additional information.

Vehicles Powered by Liquefied Petroleum (LP) Gas — Radio installation in vehicles powered by liquefied petroleum gas, where the LP gas container is in the trunk or other sealed-off space within the interior of the vehicle, must conform to the National Fire Protection Association standard NFPA 58. This requires:

> The space containing the radio equipment must be isolated by a seal from the space containing the LP gas container and its fittings.

> Outside filling connections must be used for the LP gas container.

> The LP gas container space shall be vented to the outside of the vehicle.

Vehicles Equipped with Airbags — For driver and passenger safety, avoid mounting the radio’s control head (or any other component) above or near airbag deployment areas. In addition to driver-side and passenger-side front-impact airbags, some vehicles may also be equipped with side-impact airbags. For occupant safety, verify the location of all airbags within the vehicle before installing the radio equipment.

SAFE DRIVING RECOMMENDATIONS The American Automobile Association (AAA) advocates the following key safe driving recommendations:

Read the literature on the safe operation of the radio.

Keep both hands on the steering wheel and the microphone in its hanger whenever the vehicle is in motion.

Place calls only when the vehicle is stopped.

When talking from a moving vehicle is unavoidable, drive in the slower lane. Keep conversations brief.

If a conversation requires taking notes or complex thought, stop the vehicle in a safe place and continue the call.

Whenever using a mobile radio, exercise caution.

OPERATING RULES AND REGULATIONS Two-way radio systems must be operated in accordance with the rules and regulations of the local, regional, or national government.

In the United States, the XL-85M Mobile radio must be operated in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). Operators of two-way radio equipment must be thoroughly familiar with the rules that apply to the radio operation. Following these rules helps eliminate confusion, assures the most efficient use of the existing radio channels, and results in a smoothly functioning radio network.

When using a two-way radio, remember these rules:

It is a violation of FCC rules to interrupt any distress or emergency message. The radio operates in much the same way as a telephone “party line.” Therefore, always listen to make sure the channel is clear before transmitting. Emergency calls have priority over all other messages. |f someone is sending an emergency message — such as reporting a fire or asking for help in an accident, do not transmit unless assistance can be offered.

The use of profane or obscene language is prohibited by Federal law.

It is against the law to send false call letters or false distress or emergency messages. The FCC requires keeping conversations brief and confined to business. Use coded messages whenever possible to save time.

Using the radio to send personal messages (except in an emergency) is a violation of FCC rules. Send only essential messages.

It is against Federal law to repeat or otherwise make known anything overheard on the radio. Conversations between others sharing the channel must be regarded as confidential.

The FCC requires self-identification at certain specific times by means of call letters. Refer to the rules that apply to the operation for the proper procedure.

No changes or adjustments shall be made to the equipment except by an authorized or certified electronics technician.

1.10 OPERATING TIPS The following conditions tend to reduce the effective range of two-way radios and should be avoided whenever possible:

NOTE Operating the radio in areas of low terrain, or while under power lines or bridges. Obstructions such as mountains and buildings.

In areas where transmission or reception is poor, communication improvement may sometimes be obtained by moving a few yards in another direction or moving to a higher elevation.

1.11 CITIZENS BAND OPERATION IN AUSTRALIA/NEW ZEALAND Use of the citizen band radio service is licensed in Australia by ACMA Radiocommunications (Citizens Band Radio Stations) Class License and in New Zealand by the Ministry of Economic Development (MED) General User Radio License (GURL) for Citizens Band Radio, and operation is subject to conditions contained in those licenses.

In Australia, except in an emergency, a CB transmitter shall not be operated on UHF emergency channels 5 and 35 and no voice transmissions are permitted on data (telemetry/telecommand) channels 22 and 23. In the event that additional

telemetry/telecommand channels are approved by the ACMA, these channels shall be added to those currently listed where voice transmission is inhibited.

Always listen in on a channel (or observe a channel-busy indicator) to ensure it is not already being used before transmitting.

UHF CB repeater operation must avoid operation on locally used repeater input channels (which will be in the range of channels 31 to 38, and channels 71 to 78 when they are authorized) or locally used repeater receiving channels (which will be in the range channels 1 to 8, and channels 41 to 48 when they are authorized), unless long-distance communication via the repeater facility is specifically required. NOTE: In Australia, channel 11 is the customary calling channel for establishing communication and channel 40 is the customary road vehicle channel.

Possible operational issues during the changeover from 25 kHz to 12.5 KHz channel spacing that may cause system performance degradation is if a WB channel gets placed 12.5 kHz away from a NB or WB channel. In this case, adjacent channel interference would increase and performance would degrade. There would also be some level of performance degradation if a NB transmission is received on a WB channel and vice-versa. L3Harris equipment meets the emission mask which minimizes any impact.

User Login enables multiple radio users to pick a radio from a fleet pool and enter unique credentials to log into the P25 system. Upon successful login, the Alias associated with the radio user is displayed at various end points in the P25 system.

A user can login on up to three (3) devices simultaneously. For example, if the “same user” is logged into a portable radio and mobile radio, the P25 system can differentiate the subscribers while transparently displaying the alias to other users.

Login can be initiated by a menu option, a button programmed for user login, or by selecting a P25 system that requires login. To login manually:

1. Fromthe UTILITY radio menu, select USER LOGIN, or press the button programmed for User Login.

2. Enter the System ID, User ID, and Password, as required. 3. Select Login.

If provisioning is enabled via radio programming and the user has successfully logged in, the VIDA User Personality configured in the UAS is provisioned to the radio. When no VIDA Provisioned database is available, the radio operates using the RPM2-programmed personality.

O A button on the control head or KMM can be used to toggle profiles. See Section 6.6.

NOTE NOISE CANCELLATION XL-85M Mobile radios feature L3Harris’ proprietary noise suppression capability to provide clear and crisp voice quality in high-noise environments. This can be used in any mode, including analog and digital communications.

The standard mic has two microphones; one located at the top (voice) and one on the bottom (noise reference) (see Figure 4-7 and Figure 4-8). When noise cancellation is enabled, voice is picked up by the upper microphone, and noise is picked up from the bottom microphone.

If noise cancellation is enabled and the bottom (noise reference) microphone is blocked, the radio operates as though noise cancellation is turned off.

416.1 Enable Noise Cancellation

To enable Noise Cancellation:

Refer to Section 5.6 for more information on the Audio Settings menu.

416.2 Using Noise Cancellation

When using the noise cancellation feature, observe the following:

Verify NOISE CANCELLATION is enabled (see Section 4.16.1). Talk within two (2) inches of the voice microphone.

Ensure the voice and noise reference microphones are not covered. See Section 4.16.4 for more information on the voice and noise reference microphones.

Speak clearly, loudly, and with authority.

If necessary, it is o.k. to yell into the radio. The radio can handle loud input levels.

46.3 The Effect of Distance from the Microphone

Unlike a normal microphone system, noise cancellation makes the level of your voice diminish quickly as you move away from the radio. The radio starts to see your voice as surrounding noise. Therefore, noise cancellation requires that you hold the mic close.

416.4 Voice Versus Noise Reference Microphone

The voice microphone is located on the top front face of the mic and the noise reference microphone is on the lower rear side. Do not obstruct either element during radio transmissions.

Figure 4-7: Voice Microphone Figure 4-8: Noise Reference Microphone

ENABLE/DISABLE ENCRYPTION A button on the control head or KMM can be programmed to enable/disable encryption.

O See Section 6.6 for the various options that can be programmed to the control head buttons.

Turn encryption on or off via the Security Menu: 1. Press the Menu button.

2. Navigate to the SECURITY menu.

8. _ Scroll up or down to highlight ENCRYPTION. Toggle encryption enabled/disabled by pressing the Select Button. This option is grayed out if Encryption Mode in the radio’s personality is programmed “Forced On.”

* __lf a channel is programmed to be encrypted, an optional key icon appears on the main display when encryption is enabled. The system must also be programmed for encryption.

+ __ When encryption is enabled and you use any channel not configured for encryption, the radio allows PTT. The signal is transmitted unencrypted.

°__ Systems configured for Global Encryption (enabled in the Security menu) can display an optional Global Encryption icon in addition to or instead of a key icon (Section 5.19.3).

CHANNEL GUARD (ANALOG CONVENTIONAL ONLY)

Channel Guard is L3Harris's trademark for CTCSS (tone squelch) and CDCSS (digital tone squelch).

The Channel Guard menu is only accessible if the System is setup for CG SEL in the radio's personality.

NOTE To select the Channel Guard tone:

1. Press the Menu button.

4. Highlight RECEIVE GUARD or TRANSMIT GUARD and press the Select Button. 5. Select the desired option from the list and select using the Select Button.

The Channel Info screen and Channel Edit screen will change depending on this selection. See Sections 5.5 and 6.3 for more information.

A button on the control head or KMM can be programmed for Channel Guard Override (see Section 6.6).

You can bypass the repeater system to communicate directly with other radios on your current channel/'s receive frequency. This is useful if you are out of range of a repeater or if a repeater is busy. You must be in range of the other radio.

Talkaround can be enabled/disabled on a per-channel basis. When talkaround is disabled, the © icon is shown on the front and top display. If talkaround is disabled for a channel (via the RPM2 personality), and the user tries to enable talkaround via the menus or knobs while on that channel, the radio emits a “boop” deny tone. Additionally, if talkaround is disabled on a channel, the talkaround programmable button becomes inoperable and the radio boops.

NOTE To enable talkaround:

. The optional talkaround icon © appears. Calls are made on the receive frequency until talkaround mode is disabled via the CALL menu. Power cycling the radio does not disable talkaround.

A button on the control head or KMM can be programmed to toggle talkaround enable/disabled. See Section 6.6 for the various options that can be programmed to the control head buttons.

If the talkaround Indication feature is enabled using RPM2, the radio plays a unique grant tone when a call is placed on a simplex channel or when talkaround has been enabled on a duplex channel. This feature applies to both Analog and P25 Conventional systems. It optionally allows the radio to also play the same tone when it receives a call while operating in simplex or talkaround. /f configured, the radio plays the tone at the selected volume level.

O The tone will not play on systems configured with MDC.

NOTE Talkaround Indication can be specified for each individual Analog and P25 Conventional system configured in the personality. The following options can be selected, and apply only when the radio is on a simplex channel or when talkaround has been enabled by the user:

° Disabled: (This is the default option.) When this option is selected, the radio plays the standard grant tone when a call is placed. The radio does not play a tone when a call is received.

°__Transmit Only: When this option is selected, the radio plays a different “talkaround” grant tone when a call is placed. The radio does not play a tone when a call is received.

°< _Transmit and Receive: When this option is selected, the radio plays a different “talkaround” grant tone when a call is placed, and at the beginning of a received call.

In the radio personality, the “Alert Tone” parameter needs to be enabled for each channel on the Conventional Frequency Set. The “Ready to Talk Tone” parameter must also be enabled for the Talk Around Indication tone to be played when the radio is keyed.

4.20 TYPE 99 OPERATION Type 99 is in-band, two-tone sequential signaling. It is a conventional signaling protocol used to control the muting and unmuting of a radio. This signaling is commonly used for selective calling of individual units or groups of units in a conventional system.

In Type 99 tone systems, calls are not heard until the radio detects the proper two-tone sequence. This, in conjunction with squelch, prevents the user from hearing noise or undesired conversations. When the radio detects the second tone, it sounds the appropriate Type 99 alert tone. After the second tone stops, the receiver audio path is opened for the user to receive messages.

4.20.1 Enable/Disable Type 99 To enable Type 99:

1. Select T99 TOGGLE from the CALL menu.

2. Press the Select Button to change T99 TOGGLE between ENABLED and DISABLED. T99 is displayed in the top of the radio display when Type 99 is enabled.

Or A button or switch can be programmed to enable/disable Type 99 (see Section 6.6).

4.20.2 Disable After PTT If this option is programmed using RPM2, Type 99 is disabled after the radio user activates the PTT. This allows the radio user to monitor traffic on the channel (after a PTT action) without pressing the monitor button.

Can be used in conjunction with the “Auto Reset” option (see Section 4.20.3) to disable Type 99 after a PTT and automatically reset, or enable, Type 99 after 30 seconds. 4.20.3 Auto Reset

If this option is programmed using RPM2, Type 99 is automatically reset, or turned back on, after 30 seconds. Can be used in conjunction with the “Disable After PTT” option (see Section 4.20.2) to disable Type 99 after a PTT and automatically reset, or enable, Type 99 after 30 seconds.

4.28.1 Conventional Failsoft (EDACS)

In the unlikely event of an EDACS system failure, communications can take place in Conventional Failsoft mode. The radio is automatically directed to a communications channel set up for this purpose. An increase in activity on the channel during Conventional Failsoft operation may be noticed, so be careful not to transmit until the channel is clear.

Operation during Conventional Failsoft is the same as operation on a conventional system, except that it is not possible to select a communications channel or use emergency and special call. When trunking is restored, the radio automatically returns to normal operation.

Emergency and special calls are not operational during Conventional Failsoft.

4.28.2 Failsoft (P25 Trunked)

When the site-link to the VNIC is down, the site is operating in Failsoft mode. Radios operating on that site can still communicate with each other, but not with the rest of the system. The radio

provides a visual indicator ç icon) on the display and plays a tone for a configured interval to indicate that the site is in Failsoft. This tone interval range is O to 120 seconds. This tone is not played during incoming voice or PTT.

EMERGENCY OPERATION The radio can be programmed to enable emergency mode. Unit name displays on dispatcher console if an emergency signal is received from another radio on a digital channel.

4.29.1 Declaring an Emergency Call

To declare an emergency:

1. Press and hold the emergency button on the control head. The length of time you need to hold the button is configured using RPM2.

2. The emergency is indicated on main display.

° For digital channels, the radio transmits the talkgroup or radio ID to the dispatch console and receiving radio.

° The radio can be programmed to have a dedicated emergency channel, which can be activated from analog or digital channels.

° The radio can also be programmed to send an Emergency Alarm in addition to or in place of the emergency call (P25 modes).

The radio goes through transmit and receive cycles if so configured. Speak into the microphone while the radio is transmitting or press PTT to talk.

3. To exit emergency, power cycle the radio or select EXIT EMERGENCY from the CALL menu. If enabled via programming, you can clear an emergency by pressing the button programmed for the Monitor/Clear function and then the emergency button.

4.29.2 Receiving an Emergency Call

When receiving an Emergency Call, an alert beep sounds (if tones are enabled) and an emergency indication is displayed. The unit ID and/or unit name of the unit in emergency is displayed. While the emergency display is active, press PTT to respond to the emergency caller.

4.29.3 Stealth Emergency The radio can be programmed with the following emergency behavior:

° No audio indications when declaring an emergency. ° No visual indications when declaring an emergency. ° No audio and no visual indications when declaring an emergency.

During stealth mode, the radio will not receive any type of call. Once the user presses the PTT button, the radio display and audio return to normal.

4.30 MDC-1200 (ANALOG CONVENTIONAL ONLY)

MDC-1200 is a legacy in-band signaling protocol that provides the radio with the ability to transmit and receive a unique PTT ID. This PTT ID can be decoded by receiving radios and displayed as a hexadecimal number or an alias string. In addition, MDC-1200 provides radios with the ability to transmit emergency status to a console. Refer to the MDC-1200 Feature Manual, publication number 14221-7200-6000, for complete instructions on configuring and using this feature.

4.30.1 Normal PTT Operation

If MDC signaling on PTT press is enabled using RPM2, the radio transmits an MDC PTT ID message when PTT is pressed. If the Sidetone option is enabled using RPM2, the radio plays a Ready-to-Talk (RTT) tone after the MDC pre-signaling has been transmitted.

If MDC signaling on PTT release is enabled (using RPM2), the radio transmits post-call MDC signaling when PTT is released.

+ _IF STE is enabled using RPM2, the MDC post-call signaling is transmitted after STE is sent on PTT release only.

+ MDC post-call signaling is also sent when there is a radio unkey due to Carrier Control Timeout (CCT). Normal CCT alert tones occur prior to unkey.

4.30.2 MDC PTT ID Receive Handling

When the radio receives an MDC PTT ID, it searches the MDC ID Alias List for an alias associated with the ID. If one is found, it displays the alias. If none is found, the radio displays the ID in hexadecimal.

4.30.3 Emergency Declaration

Emergency declaration is accomplished by the radio generating an MDC Emergency PTT message. An Emergency is considered acknowledged when the radio receives an “Ack To Emergency” PTT message with an ID which matches its own ID. If Emergency Audio is enabled and the PTT Sidetone option is enabled, the radio plays the Ready-to-Talk tone after the MDC Emergency PTT signaling is transmitted.

° __lfan MDC Alert on ACKis enabled, the radio plays an ACK tone when the MDC emergency is acknowledged.

°__lfaudio tones are enabled, the radio plays an ACK tone if the emergency is not acknowledged within the programmed number of retries.

MULTIGROUP (P25 TRUNKING ONLY)

Multigroup is an implementation of announcement call functionality for P25 Trunking. There are two aspects to this: the multigroup itself and subgroups of the multigroup. Both the multigroup and its subgroups are talkgroups within a P25 group set. For any given P25 group set, a single multigroup and up to 32 sub-groups can be defined.

When tuned to the multigroup, the radio will:

°< Transmit calls across the multigroup and its subgroups. This is commonly referred to as multigroup call.

° Receive all transmissions made on the multigroup and its subgroups. ° Halt any ongoing scan operation.

When tuned to a subgroup, the radio will:

°__Transmit calls across the currently selected subgroup.

°__Transmit calls across the multigroup if a multigroup call is received and PTTSs during the hang time. For this to happen, the system must be configured to allow keyback on the multigroup. If keyback is not configured, the radio will always transmit across the subgroup.

Receive all transmissions made on the multigroup and the currently selected subgroup.

BEON OPERATION The BeOn solution is a Voice over IP (VolP) based, Push-to-Talk (PTT) communications system operating over public or private wireless networks. The solution extends traditional Land Mobile Radio (LMR) services onto the broadband capable third generation (3G) and 4G/LTE cellular networks.

SET UP SCAN The procedures in the following sections describe how to set up the scan list, home channels, and priority channels.

When using Preemptive Priority Scan, the frequencies in the list need to be unique.

5.13.1 Default, Priority 1, and Priority 2 Channels

This is the currently selected channel and is the channel you transmit on by default when you press PTT while the radio is actively scanning and is not responding to a just received call. Responding to a call the radio just received while scanning is called hang time. If hang time is set to 0 using RPM2, the radio always transmits on the default channel in scan.

5.13.1.2 Priority 1 Channel

This channel will be scanned more often than other channels in the list and will be scanned in between every other channel in the scan list. An example scan sequence would be P1 (priority 1), C2, P1, C3, P1, C4, etc. In addition, the priority channel will be scanned even while actively receiving on a non-priority channel. For example, if the radio is actively receiving on C3 and activity is detected on P1, the radio will drop C3 and switch to P1.

5.13.1.3 Priority 2 Channel

This channel will also be scanned more often than others. An example scan sequence would be P1, C2, P1, C3, P1, C4, P2, C5, P1, C6, P1, C7, P1, C8, P2, C9 etc. In addition, this channel will be scanned even while actively receiving on a non-priority channel. For example, if the radio is actively receiving on C3 and activity is detected on P2, the radio will drop C3 and switch to P2. Additionally, activity on P1 can also preempt P2, but P2 cannot preempt P1.

5.13.2 Trunked/Conventional Scanning

Trunked/conventional scanning adds the ability to scan multiple conventional and P25 conventional channels while still maintaining trunked radio operation. The radio can scan a conventional scan list while still receiving a trunked control channel and receiving trunked calls. Selection of which conventional scan list is associated with a given trunked system is done using RPM2 and cannot be changed on the radio. However, a user with access to the necessary menu layout (see Section 4.7) can edit the scan list members (both trunked groups and conventional channels on the selected Conventional Priority System). As the number of conventional channels being scanned increases, the time between scanning each channel increases (roughly 250 milliseconds per channel), with the consequent increase in the number of calls that will late-enter. To avoid missing calls, it is recommended to keep the number of conventional channels being scanned to eight (8) or fewer.

The trunking site must have roaming set to Enhanced CC.

5.13.3 Vote Scan (Analog and P25 Conventional Only)

If vote scan is enabled via RPM2, the radio automatically selects the strongest signal ensuring that the best audio quality is delivered to the user. If vote scan is enabled, the radio is always scanning. You cannot stop scanning, start normal scanning, or monitor the channel. The scanning icon on the main screen indicates that the radio is vote scanning versus, regular scanning.

O Iftalkaround is enabled, Vote Scan is disabled until talkaround is disabled again. NOTE

5.13.4 Edit Scan List

Depending on the scan list options selected via RPM2, you may be able to add or remove channels/groups from the scan list.

To edit the scan list:

Scroll up or down to highlight the scan list and press the Select Button. Scroll up or down to highlight channel/group.

7. Select ADD CHAN/DELETE CHAN, SET PR, SET PRI2, REMOVE PRI, or NUISANCE/ADD BACK.

When a channel is not grayed out in the list, DELETE CHAN appears. When a channel/group is grayed out (not in list), ADD CHAN appears.

8. Press the Select Button to toggle selection.

5.13.5 Set or Remove Priority 1 and Priority 2 Channels

Priority channels are scanned more often than non-priority channels. Note that P1 and P2 can only be set if configured as “Keypad” and the scan list is not set to “Fixed” using RPM2.

To set or remove priority 1 and priority 2 channels:

Press the Menu button.

Navigate to the SCAN menu.

Highlight SCAN LISTS and press the Select Button.

Scroll up or down to highlight the desired scan list and press the Select Button. Press the up or down navigation buttons to highlight the desired channel/group. Press the OPTIONS soft key.

Highlight SET PRI or SET PRI2 and press the Select Button. A Priority 1 channel appears with a P1; a Priority 2 channel appears with a P2.

8. Select REMOVE PR to remove priority.

5.13.6 Custom Scan Lists

The Mixed Zone Scan (MZS) feature gives the user the capability to scan based on a custom scan list that is assigned at the system level. The Custom Scan (CS) list can contain System and Channel/Group configurations across P25 Trunked, P25 Conventional, and Analog Systems. When a Custom Scan List is assigned to a P25T system, the radio can scan P25T, P25C, and Analog systems. When assigned to a P25C or Analog system, the radio only scans conventional channels. MZS also gives the user the capability to scan beyond the selected system group set.

When a custom scan list is assigned to a P25T system, the user can scan P25T, P25C, and Analog groups/channels. All P25T systems must have the same WACN, System ID, and Unit ID to be added to the custom scan list. If P25C and/or analog channels are added to the custom scan list, the radio will scan them using the Trunked/Conventional scan feature described in section 5.13.2, and will override any other conventional scan list that may have been programmed using RPM2.

° _P25C and Analog Scan

When a custom scan list is assigned to a P25C or Analog System, the user can scan P25C and Analog channels. P25T systems are ignored.

Custom scan list can be created using RPM or at the radio. The radio supports up to ten (10) Custom Scan lists, with up to 100 channels/groups in each.

Highlight the newly added scan list and press the VIEW/EDIT soft key and then select EDIT SCAN LIST.

7. Scroll left or right to display the desired system.

Scroll up or down to highlight the desired group/channel and the OPTIONS softkey. From the options menu, you can add/delete channels from the scan list and set/remove Priority 1 and Priority 2 channels.

When a custom scan list is selected, that list is scanned any time scanning is enabled for any Trunked, conventional, or P25 Conventional system. To scan NOTE only the channels assigned to a system, custom scanning must be turned off.

5.13.7 Wide Area System Scan (P25 Trunked)

Wide Area System Scan (WASCAN) causes the radio to roam across mobile systems when the currently selected syste”"s control channel is lost. The radio will scan the control channels of other systems.

To enable/disable Wide Area System Scan:

4. Press the YES softkey to remove the keys. This will also remove the keysets.

5.19.2 Protected Keys

The Protected Keys feature transfers P25 Voice Keys, from Key Loader to the radio, that have been wrapped (AES) or encrypted (DES) with Key Protection Keys (KPKs). KPKS are nothing more than unprotected Key Encryption Keys (KEKSs). The KPKs need to be loaded into the radio before the Protected Keys are loaded. Once loaded into the radio, the KPKs are used to unwrap (AES) or decrypt (DES) the Protected Keys.

5.19.3 Global Encryption

Global Encryption can be enabled when encryption keys are loaded on the radio and the selected Zone/System is encrypted. When Global Encryption is enabled on the radio, a Global Key is used for all encrypted transmissions until:

° Global Encryption is disabled.

The KMF Configuration must include the RSI of the KMF and the appropriate Message Number Period.

To enable OTAR and request rekey:

Scroll up or down to highlight OTAR REKEY and press the Select Button to request that the KMF update the keys in the radio. OTAR REKEY is only enabled if the radio has successfully registered for data operations. lf enabled via programming, the radio plays an audible confirmation tone to indicate successful OTAR rekey.

P25 CONVENTIONAL FALLBACK When P25 Conventional Fallback is enabled, a P25 trunking site responds to failures by allowing one or more channels to operate as conventional repeaters. Terminals which are properly configured can then communicate using the conventional P25 channel(s).

The radio provides an audible and visual indication when operating in P25 Conventional Fallback.

STEALTH MODE For some users, it is important to be able to turn off the radio’s display lights and side tones, but not the radio traffic. For example, in covert operations, lights and sounds could inadvertently expose an otherwise unobservable radio user. For this purpose, the radio has a Stealth feature that disables the radio display lights, indicator lights, audible alert, and side tones. When Stealth Mode is on, the radio continues to scan the programmed list of Talk Groups and the user can key- up on the selected Talk Group. A button or the two-position switch can be programmed via RPM2 to enable/disable Stealth Mode.

The following Stealth Mode options are configurable via RPM2:

°__ Persistence Enabled — Specify whether or not Stealth Mode persists after the radio is powered down.

+ LCD Enabled — Specify if the LCD is enabled or disabled for Stealth Mode. + __LED Enabled -— Specify if the LED is enabled or disabled for Stealth Mode. *__Backlight Enabled — Specify if the Backlight is enabled or disabled for Stealth Mode.

+ __Side/Alert Tones Enabled — Specify if side tones and alert tones are enabled or disabled for Stealth Mode.

EMERGENCY CHECK:-IN TIMER The Emergency Check In Timer is an added safety feature for a radio user who may be in a dangerous environment. If this timer expires before being cancelled by the radio operator, an emergency is declared.

5. Press RESTART to restart the timer, or press STOP to stop the timer and return to the CALL menu. |f enabled via RPM2, pressing the PTT button will also restart the timer.

Power cycling the radio stops the Emergency Check-In Timer.

NOTE If the EMERGENCY TIMER menu is not available to the radio user, a button can be programmed to enable/disable the Emergency Check-In Timer. In this case, the timer value is set in RPM2 and cannot be changed at the radio.

The following describes the External Output Alert Modes that can be enabled if one or more external outputs are configured for Emergency Check-In Timer:

°_ Warning On — Output is triggered when the timer counts down to the warning beep start time. This is the default mode.

°__ Warning Pulse — Output is triggered when the timer counts down to the warning beep start time. The output pulses active for three seconds and continues to pulse for three seconds each minute until the last minute. During the last minute, the output pulses three seconds on, three seconds off, and repeats until the timer expires.

e Last Min On — Output is triggered when the timer counts down to the one-minute time.

e Last Min Pulse — Output is triggered when the timer counts down to the one-minute time. During the last minute the output pulses three seconds on, three seconds off, and repeats until the timer expires.

+ __ Expired — Output is triggered when the timer expires. There is no warning via the external output.

WI-FI CLIENT SELECTION XL-85M Mobile radios support up to 24 different Wi-Fi networks configurable via programming, with an option to select one of the configured networks as default.

O These 24 Wi-Fi networks are considered radio administrator approved and Trusted Wi-Fi Networks (tWiN) on which the radio can operate.

NOTE The radio will always join the network configured as the highest priority in the personality when multiple tWiNs are available.

To change the selected Wi-Fi network: 1. From the UTILITY menu, select Wi-Fi Client.

2. From here, select a network from the list, add a network, view details about the selected network, or remove the selected network.

5.24 EXTERNAL SPEAKER If two speakers (speaker 1 and speaker 2) are connected to a Control Head and/or VCH, the External Speaker options can be used to manage output audio between them.

If the External Speaker option is enabled in the personality, audio is only played on speaker 1.

If the External Speaker option is disabled in the personality, audio is played on both speaker 1 and speaker 2 with no difference in the volume between the two.

1f Master Mode is disabled, the VCH speakers will not be controlled with respect to the External Speaker feature.

When the External Speaker option is enabled in the personality, assigning the External Speaker function to a programmable button allows for additional control of output audio between speaker 1 and speaker 2.

When the programmable button configured for External Speaker is first pressed (active), the output volume of speaker 1 will stay fixed and speaker 2 will unmute at the current volume level (if previously activated, speaker 2 will unmute at its last registered volume level prior to going inactive). Any further adjustments to volume level will only impact speaker 2.

When the programmable button configured for External Speaker is pressed again (inactive), speaker 1 will continue to play audio at its current volume level and speaker 2 will be muted. Any further adjustments to volume level will only impact speaker 1.

Speaker 1 and Speaker 2 are defined by the physical connection to the radis control head and VCH. See the XL-85M Mobile Installation Manual, 14221- NOTE 1850-4060, for additional details.

NOTE RPM2 WI-FI SUPPORT FOR ENTERPRISE NETWORKS.

Enterprise Networks have certain limitations when it comes to Discovering/Programming Radios in RPM2. There is a 4500 second (75 minute) caching affect inherent to implementation with the Cisco® Wi-Fi solution that utilizes the Access Point (AP)/Wireless LAN Controller (WLC) components. Radios remain ‘seen’ in RPM2 even after the radio leaves Wi-Fi or is turned off. lt is cached in RPM2 for 4500 seconds. This issue has only been observed with the Cisco AP and WLC solution; however, other enterprise wireless solutions may observe this caching affect. Operation with a lower tiered Wi-Fi router that does not operate with a WLC will likely not observe this behavior.

Refer to the Network Config Tool Software Release Notes, 14221-3100-8110, for more information.

HELPFUL HINTS A8.1 Initial Setup and Configuration

Since radio discovery is dependent on if Multicast (MDNS) messages are being received by RPM2, it is best to keep things as simple as possible. Here are the suggested steps if this is being setup and configured for the first time.

1. Configure the Access Point with the default personality values provided in Section A.2.

2. Create a basic personality with a single system, set and channel, write it to the radio and activate it over USB.

3. Complete Sections A.4 through A.6.

If the radio was not discovered in RPM2 but an IP address is displayed on the radio screen as seen in Error! Reference source not found., this may mean that the Multicast (mDNS) messages are not making it through the Access Point. Consult the Access Point's manual and make sure that those messages are not being filtered out.

A8.2 Grouping Radios by Service Name

One benefit of using a unique Service Name is that it allows the user to create logical groupings of radios to reduce the number of radios discovered in RPM2 and help reduce the overhead of keeping track of which radios have been configured.

For example, if there are 100 radios in Wi-Fi programming mode (see Section A.5) with the same Service Name, all 100 radios are displayed in the Radio tab after discovery has been completed. This makes it difficult to select and program multiple radios simultaneously. However, if the Service Name in the active personality on 16 of the radios are set to something unique like “fire1” and the RPM2 application Service Name (see Section A.4) is also updated to “fire1,” only those radios with a Service Name of “fire1” are discovered and displayed in the Radio tab.

1. Select Start > Harris Key Manager > Harris Key Admin.

2. Select New Master Set, Open, or Import from Security Device. Refer to the Key Admin online help for more information on creating keys.

3. When finished, create a Distribution Key File. A Distribution Key File is used with Key Loader to load key sets into the radio and cannot be edited. Refer to the Key Admin online help for more information on creating the Distribution Key File.

LOAD ENCRYPTION KEYS B.2.1 Load UKEKS with Key Loader and RPM2 (for OTAR-Enabled Systems)

UKEKS are loaded into L3Harris OTAR-enabled radios using the Key Loader application. Key Loader is a part of Key Manager.

To load encryption keys:

1. Obtain the UKEXK file and Storage Location Number (SLN) Binding Report information from the Crypto Officer (CO).

O Both AES and DES UKEKS can be contained within the same UKEXK file.

NOTE If not already on, power-up the PC on which RPM2 and Key Loader are installed. Connect the radio to the PC using the USB programming cable. Load the UKEXK file from the Crypto Officer onto the PC.

Run the RPM2 application and setup the radio's Personality according the SLN Binding Report information.

6. Setup the talk groups and the SLN mappings (Talk Group ID to SLN). This includes mapping SENS to the “System” keys (PSTN, All Call, etc.).

In RPM2, select P25 OPTIONS > P25 OTAR/Keystores and set the following, referring to the RPM2 online help as necessary:

a. Click Create to add a Keystore or edit the Default Keystore.

b. Check Enable OTAR Options.

c. Enter the OTAR Message Number Period (MNP) as defined by the System Administrator. d. Enter the radio’s Individual RSI (from the SLN Bindings Report).

e. Enter the KMF's RSI (from the SLN Bindings Report).

Program the Personality to the radio. Run the Key Loader application.

. Open the UKEK file loaded in step 4. . Select the Target Device type and click the Load button. . The Key Loader reads the target device’s identifying information, retrieves a UKEK of the

proper algorithm type from the UKEXK file, and downloads the UKEK to the target device at the proper SLN and keyset with the proper key ID.

Click button to exit the Key Loader application. New UKEKS have are loaded and the radio is now ready to accept TEKs via OTAR with the trunked radio network.

B.2.2 Load Keys Using Harris Key Loader

Harris Key Loader is part of Harris Key Manager and can be used by the Crypto Officer or Technician to load the keys into the radio.

Refer to the Harris Key Loader online help if additional information is required when performing this procedure.

At the Key Loader Welcome screen, click Next.

Select Load a Distribution Set into one or more devices. Click Next.

Browse to the Key File and enter the password.

Click Next to validate the password and continue. lf the password is incorrect, the screen will display an error message.

Ensure USB is selected in the drop-down and click Next.
