Introduction
This user guide covers the operation of your radios.
Your dealer or system administrator may have customized your radio for your specific needs. Check with your dealer or system administrator for more information.
You can consult your dealer or system administrator about the following:
- Is your radio programmed with any preset conventional channels?
- Which buttons have been programmed to access other features?
- What optional accessories may suit your needs?
- What are the best radio usage practices for effective communication?
- What maintenance procedures that helps promote longer radio life?
Icon Information
Throughout this publication, the icons described are used to indicate features supported in either the conventional analog or conventional digital mode.

Indicates a conventional Analog Mode-Only feature.

Indicates a conventional Digital Mode-Only feature.
For features that are available in both conventional analog and digital modes, both icons are not shown.
Conventional Analog and Digital Modes
Each channel in your radio can be configured as a conventional analog or conventional digital channel.
Certain features are unavailable when switching from digital to analog mode. The icons for digital features reflect this change by appearing “grayed out”. The disabled features are hidden in the menu.
Your radio also has features available in both analog and digital modes. The minor differences in the way each feature works do not affect the performance of your radio.

NOTICE:
Your radio also switches between digital and analog modes during a dual mode scan. See Scan on page 56 for more information.
IP Site Connect
This feature allows your radio to extend conventional communication beyond the reach of a single site by connecting to different available sites by using an Internet Protocol (IP) network. This is a conventional multi-site mode.
When the radio moves out of range from one site and into the range of another, the radio connects to the repeater of the new site to send or receive calls or data transmissions. This is done either automatically or manually depending on your settings.
In an automatic site search, the radio scans through all available sites when the signal from the current site is weak or when the radio is unable to detect any signal from the current site. The radio then locks on to the repeater with the strongest Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI) value.
In a manual site search, the radio searches for the next site in the roam list that is currently in range but which may not have the strongest signal and locks on to the repeater.

NOTICE:
Each channel can only have either Scan or Roam enabled, not both at the same time.
Channels with this feature enabled can be added to a particular roam list. The radio searches the channels in the roam list during the automatic roam operation to locate the best site. A roam list supports a maximum of 16 channels, including the selected channel.

NOTICE:
You cannot manually add or delete an entry in the roam list. Check with your dealer or system administrator for more information.
Capacity Plus-Single-Site
Capacity Plus–Single-Site is a single-site trunking configuration of the MOTOTRBO radio system, which uses a pool of channels to support hundreds of users and up to 254 Groups. This feature allows your radio to efficiently utilize the available number of programmed channels while in Repeater Mode.
English
You hear a negative indicator tone if you try to access a feature not applicable to Capacity Plus–Single-Site by using a programmable button press.
Your radio also has features that are available in conventional digital mode, IP Site Connect, and Capacity Plus. However, the minor differences in the way each feature works does not affect the performance of your radio.
Check with your dealer or system administrator for more information on this configuration.
Capacity Plus–Multi-Site
Capacity Plus–Multi-Site is a multi-channel trunking configuration of the MOTOTRBO radio system, combining the best of both Capacity Plus and IP Site Connect configurations.
Capacity Plus–Multi-Site allows your radio to extend trunking communication beyond the reach of a single site, by connecting to different available sites which are connected with an IP network. It also provides an increase in capacity by efficiently utilizing the combined available number of programmed channels supported by each of the available sites.
When the radio moves out of range from one site and into the range of another, it connects to the repeater of the new site to send or receive calls/data transmissions. Depending on your settings, this is done automatically or manually.
If the radio is set to do this automatically, it scans through all available sites when the signal from the current site is weak or when the radio is unable to detect any signal from the current site. It then locks on to the repeater with the strongest RSSI value.
In a manual site search, the radio searches for the next site in the roam list that is currently in range (but which may not have the strongest signal) and locks on to it.
Any channel with Capacity Plus–Multi-Site enabled can be added to a particular roam list. The radio searches these channels during the automatic roam operation to locate the best site.

NOTICE:
You cannot manually add or delete an entry to the roam list. Check with your dealer or system administrator for more information.
Similar to Capacity Plus–Single Site, icons of features not applicable to Capacity Plus–Multi-Site are not available in the menu. You hear a negative indicator tone if you try to
English
access a feature not applicable to Capacity Plus–Multi-Site by using a programmable button press.
English
