BATTERY FEATURES

About the Li-Ion Battery

The RM Series™ radio comes equipped with a rechargeable Li-1on battery. This battery should be charged fully before initial use to ensure optimum capacity and performance.

Battery life is determined by several factors. Among the more critical are the regular overcharge of batteries and the average depth of discharge with each cycle. Typically, the greater the overcharge and the deeper the average discharge, the fewer cycles a battery will last. For example, a battery which is overcharged and discharged 100% several times a day, lasts fewer cycles than a battery that receives less of an overcharge and is discharged to 50% per day. Further, a battery which receives minimal overcharging and averages only 25% discharge, lasts even longer.

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^ (25^) (room temperature), whenever possible. Charging a cold battery (below 50^ [10^] ) may result in leakage of electrolyte and ultimately in failure of the battery. Charging a hot battery (above 95^ [35^] ) 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-ON 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-ON batteries. In the U.S. and Canada, Motorola participates in the nationwide Rechargeable Battery Recycling Corporation (RBRC) program for Li-ON 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:

www.rbrc.com

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.

After hearing the CTCSS/DPL codes, short pressing the PTT button moves you to AutoScan mode.

Auto-Scan has only two values:

  • Enabled
  • Disabled

Active Channels

While in Auto-Scan mode, short pressing the PTT button shifts the radio to 'Active Channels' feature. Modify the amount of channels available using the SB1 and SB2 buttons.

Saving Settings

Once you are satisfied with the settings, you can either:

  • short press the PTT button to continue programming,
  • long press the PTT button to save and return to 'Idle' Programming Mode, or
  • long press the PTT button twice to exit 'Idle' Programming Mode and return to the normal radio operation.

  • If you 'roll-over' to the beginning of 'Idle' Programming Mode, you will hear "Channel Number". All changed values will be automatically saved.

Programming Mode FAQ

  1. I got distracted while programming and forgot which feature I was programming. What should I do?

Return to 'Idle' Programming Mode and start over. You will not be able to return to Programming Mode (the radio does not provide further way to let you know the specific stage you are at in the Programming Mode).

Therefore you can:

  • Long press the PTT button. The radio will return to 'Idle' Programming Mode or,
  • Turn OFF the radio and enter Programming Mode again. (Refer to "Entering Advanced Configuration Mode" on page 33 for more information)
  • I am trying to program a frequency (or a code) value but the radio would not do it. It rolled over and took me back to value '0'.

The radio disallow you to program any value that is not available in the frequencies and

codes pool. For example, if you try to program code 220, the radio would not accept it as the maximum value allowed is 219. Same goes for the frequencies. Refer to the "Frequency and Code Charts" on page 53 to make sure you are programming a valid value.
3. I am trying to enter the Programming Mode but the radio would not do it.

The radio may be locked using the CPS to disallow Front Panel Programming. To re-enable, use the CPS.

  1. I programmed the wrong value when I was programming. How can I erase or re-program the value?

If you programmed the wrong value, you can either:

  • 'Roll-over' the radio. The radio 'roll-over' each time it reaches the maximum value allowed. Keep increasing (short press the SB1 button) or decreasing (short press the SB2 button) until you get the desired value or,

  • Turn OFF the radio and start over.

  • I just programmed the value I wanted. How do I exit the Programming Mode?

You can either:

  • long press the PTT button twice to exit if you're in the Programming Mode or,
  • Long press the PTT button once if you are already in the 'Idle' Programming mode.
  • I am done programming the features in this channel. How do I program another channel?

Short press the PTT button several times until you hear "Channel Number". Switch channel using the SB1 and SB2 buttons. If you wish to save the changes, make sure you are in the 'Idle' Programming Mode before switching the channel, otherwise you will lose the changes made.

PROGRAMMING VALUES EXAMPLE

Example of Programming a Frequency

Assuming current frequency value is set to Channel 1, with the UHF default frequency set to '02' (equivalent to 464.5500MHz ), and you want to change it to Frequency Number = '13' (which is mapped to 461.1375MHz ), follow this sequence:

  1. Enter Advanced Configuration Mode.
  2. Short press the PTT button to enter Frequency Mode. The radio audible voice announces that the current value is '2'.
  3. Press the SB1 button eleven times to increase frequencies and you will hear frequency "One, three" (13).
  4. Long press the PTT button. LED Indicator shows a green heartbeat to indicate 'Idle' Programming Mode.
  5. Long press the PTT button again to exit Programming Mode or turn OFF the radio.

Example of Programming a Code

Assuming the current code value is set to factory default '001', and you want to change it to CTCSS/DPL Code = 103. Follow the sequence indicated below:

  1. Enter Advanced Configuration Mode.
  2. Short press the PTT button twice. The radio audible voice announced "Code Number" (Entering CTCSS/DPL Programming Selection Mode).
  3. Pressing and holding SB1 or SB2 button fast forwards / rewrites the value at the nearest 10's. When released, the radio audible voice announces the first, second and third digit in full. Keep pressing the SB1 or SB2 button several times until you hear "103".
  4. Long press the PTT button. LED Indicator shows a green heartbeat to indicate 'Idle' Programming Mode.
  5. Long press the PTT button again to exit Programming Mode or turn OFF the radio.

Example of Programming Auto-Scan

Auto-Scan is the third available feature in the Programming Mode and can be set to either ON or OFF on a particular channel.

To set Auto-Scan to ON:

  • Enter Advanced Configuration Mode and select the desired channel.
  • Short press the PTT button three times to enter the Active Channels Programming Selection Mode. The audible voice in the radio announces "Auto-Scan" and the setting (Enabled or Disabled).
  • To change the setting, press SB1 or SB2.
  • Long press the PTT button. LED Indicator shows a green heartbeat to indicate 'Idle' Programming Mode.
  • Long press the PTT button again to exit Programming Mode or turn OFF the radio.

Example of Programming Active Channels

Active Channels is the last Programming Mode. It allows you to modify the number of active channels the radio is programmed to support.

To set Active Channels:

  • Enter Advanced Configuration Mode and select the desired channel.
  • Short press the PTT button four times to enter the Active Channels Programming Selection Mode. The audible voice in the radio announces "Active Channels" and the current value.
  • Short press the SB1 or SB2 button until you the number of channels desired.
  • Long press the PTT Button. LED Indicator shows a green heartbeat to indicate 'Idle' Programming Mode.
  • Long press the PTT Button to exit Programming Mode or turn OFF the radio.

OTHER PROGRAMMING FEATURES

Scan

Scan allows you to monitor other channels to detect conversations. When the radio detects a transmission, it stops scanning and goes to the active channel. This allows you to listen and talk to people in that channel without having to change channel manually. If there are transmissions on another channel, you will not hear that activity once the radio has stopped scanning. Once the activity on transmitting channel stops, the radio waits for 5 seconds before resuming scan again.

  • To start scanning, press the SB1 or SB2 button
    Note: Scan has to be programmed either to SB1 or SB2 button via CPS. SB2 is by default Down Button for RMU2040/RMU2043/ RMM2050 models.
  • To stop scanning, short press the SB1 or SB2 button (programmed for scan) again.
  • By pressing the PTT button while the radio is scanning, the radio will transmit on the channel

which was previously selected before Scan is activated. If no transmission occurs within 5 seconds, scanning resumes.

  • If you want to scan a channel without the Interference Eliminator Codes (CTCSS/DPL), set the code settings for the channels to '0' in the CTCSS/DPL Programming Selection Mode.

Note: Whenever the radio is set to Scan, the LED Indicator blinks a Red Heartbeat.

Editing Scan List

Scan List can be edited by using the CPS. For more information refer to "Customer Programming Software (CPS)" on page 40.

Nuisance Channel Delete

Nuisance Channel Delete allows you to temporarily remove channels from the Scan List. This feature is useful when irrelevant conversations on a 'nuisance' channel ties up the radio's scanning feature.

To delete a channel from the Scan List:

  • Start Scan mode by short pressing the SB1 or SB2 (programmed for scan) button.
  • Wait until the radio stops at the channel you wish to eliminate. Long press the SB2 button to delete it. You cannot delete the channel with scan enabled (home channel).
  • The channel will not be scanned again until you exit the Scan mode by short pressing the SB1 or SB2 (programmed for scan) button again or by turning OFF the radio and back ON.

CUSTOMER PROGRAMMING SOFTWARE (CPS)
Figure 1: Setting up the radio to the CPS

The easiest way to program or change features in your radio is by using the Customer Programming Software (CPS) and the CPS Programming Cable*. CPS Software is available for free as web based downloadable software at:

www.motorolasolutions.com/RMseries

To program, connect the RM Series radio via the Drop-in Charger Tray and CPS Programming Cable as shown in Figure 1 on page 40.

CPS allows you to program frequencies, PL/ DPL Codes as well as other features such as: Bandwidth Select, Time-out Timer, Power Select, Scan List, Call Tones, Scramble, Reverse Burst, etc. CPS is a very useful tool as it can also lock the Front-Panel Radio Programming or restrict any specific radio feature to be changed (to avoid accidentally erasing the preset radio values). It also provides security by giving the option to set up a password for profile radio's management. For more information, refer to Features Summary Chart Section at the end of the User Guide.

Note: (*) CPS Programming Cable P/N# HKKN4027_is an accessory sold separately. Please contact your Motorola point of purchase for more information.

Bandwidth Select (Only for Canada models)

All US models are compliant with the narrowbandwidth FCC regulation.

Default setting for Bandwidth Select depends on the specific frequency and channel. Some frequencies have selectable channel spacing, which must match with other radios for optimum audio quality.

For details, refer to Frequency and Code Charts section.

Time-Out Timer

When pressing the PTT button, transmissions can be terminated by setting up a 'time-out' timer.

Power Select

Power Select allows you to select between high and low transmission power per frequency in each channel. The power levels for RM Series 2W toggle between 1W and 2W.

Note: Some frequencies may have FCC transmit power restrictions that do not allow them to be set at a higher power level. For details see the Frequencies and Code Chart Section.

Call Tones

Call Tones feature allows you to transmit an audible tone to other radios on the same channel to alert them that you are about to talk or to alert them without speaking.

To use this feature, the Call Tones must be programmed to either SB1 or SB2 and 1 of the 3 pre-recorded tones is selected.

Scramble

The Scramble feature makes transmissions sound garbled to anyone listening without the same code. Scramble default value is OFF. To change the scramble code during radio's normal operation, the Scramble feature must be programmed to either SB1 or SB2.

Reverse Burst

Reverse Burst eliminates unwanted noise (squelch tail) during loss of carrier detection. You can select values of either 180 or 240 to be compatible with other radios. The default value is 180.

Notes:

  • The features described in previous pages are just some of the features CPS has. CPS offers more capabilities. For more information refer to the HELP file in the CPS.

CLONING RADIOS

You can clone RM Series radio profiles from one Source radio to a Target radio by using any one of these 3 methods:

  • Using a Multi Unit Charger (MUC-optional accessory),
  • Using two Single Unit Chargers (SUC) and a Radio-to-Radio cloning cable (optional accessory),
  • the CPS (free software download)

Cloning with a Multi Unit Charger (MUC)

MOTOROLA RMU2040 - Cloning with a Multi Unit Charger (MUC) - 1

To clone radios using the MUC, there must be at least two radios:

  • a Source radio (radio which profiles will be cloned or copied from) and
  • a Target radio (the radio which profile will be cloned from the source radio.)

The Source radio has to be in Pocket 1 or 4 while the Target radio has to be in Pocket 2 or 5, matching in the MUCs pockets by pairs as follows:

1 and 2 or,

4 and 5.

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

  1. Turn ON the Target radio and place it into one of the MUC Target Pockets
  2. Power the Source radio following the sequence below:

  3. Press the PTT button and SB2 simultaneously while turning the radio ON.

  4. Wait for 3 seconds before releasing the buttons until the audible tone "Cloning" is heard.

  5. Place the Source radio in the source pocket that pairs with the target pocket you chose in step 1. Press and release the SB1 button.

  6. After cloning is completed, the Source radio will announce either "successful" (cloning is successful) or "fail" (cloning has failed). If the Source radio is a display model, it will either

show 'Pass' or 'Fail' on the display (a voice announcement will be played within 5 seconds).

  1. Once you have completed the cloning process, turn the radios OFF and ON to exit the 'cloning' mode.

Further details on how to clone radios are explained in the Instructions Sheet provided with the MUC.

When ordering the MUC, refer to P/N#
PMLN6384_.

Notes:

  • If cloning fails, refer to "What To Do If Cloning Fails" on page 46.
  • Paired Target radios and Source radios must be of the same band type in order for the cloning to run successfully.
  • MUC pockets numbers should be read from left to right with the Motorola logo facing front.

CPS and Cloning Cables (Optional Accessory)

  • Both CPS and Cloning Cables are made to work either with RM Series radios or RDX Series radios. Cloning cable supports a mix of RM and RDX series radios.
  • CPS cable programs RM series radios. Make sure the cable switch is in "Flash" position. To program a RDX radio with the CPS cable, make sure the cable switch is in "CPS" position and the USB converter provided in the CPS cable kit is attached to the cable.
  • Cloning cable allows you to clone:

  • RM Series radios. Make sure the switch is in "Cloning" or "Legacy" position.
    -RDX Series radios. Make sure the switch is in "Legacy" position with one USB converter on each end of the cloning cable.
