2 6880904Z68-O May, 1997 Introduction P110 16-Channel Portable Radios Introduction Welcome To The Motorola Radius P110 Radio The Radius P110 Portable Radio is a sophisticated state- of-the-art unit. It incorporates the latest technology avail- able in two-way radio communications. The use of microcomputer technology makes changing radio characteristics such as operating frequencies and squelch codes both economical and fast. Any computer equipped Radius dealer can easily reprogram your radios operating characteristics, or your radio can be “cloned” from a radio already programmed to your desired frequencies and codes. The P110 radio meets tough environmental demands while providing cost effective and reliable communications. It meets the U.S. Government Military Standards 810C, D and E for low pressure, high temperature, low temperature, temperature shock, solar radiation, rain, humidity, salt fog, dust, vibration, and shock. The P110 radio also meets the Electronic Industry Association RS 316 B electrical and mechanical specifications. The Motorola Accelerated Life Test (ALT) assures that possible failures brought on by field stress and abuse are identified and designed out of your radio before it reaches your hands. All of these features provide for better, yet more cost effec- tive communications for you.

When released, the radio operates in the receive mode. Control Button This can be programmed as a Monitor, Volume Set (manual monitor), or Scan Nuisance Delete button. If programmed for Monitor or Volume Set, pressing the Control button will monitor the channel for activity. Neither tone nor digital Private- Line (PL/DPL) squelch is active when monitoring. If pro- grammed for Scan Nuisance Delete, pressing the Control but- ton will delete a nuisance chan- nel while in the scan mode.

6 6880904Z68-O May, 1997 Alert Tone Indicators P110 16-Channel Portable Radios Alert Tone Indicators Power-Up Each time the radio is turned on, a microcomputer and syn- thesizer self-test occurs. A high pitched alert tone is gener- ated for approximately 1/8 second to indicate that the microcomputer and synthesizer are functioning properly. A second low pitched tone is generated if the start-up test is not successful. Transmit on Blank or Receive- Only Channels Pressing the PTT button while tuned to a blank or “receive- only” channel causes an alert tone. The tone continues as long as the PTT button is depressed. The radio transmit- ter is not enabled. Transmit Inhibition Busy Channel with Busy Channel Lockout Pressing the PTT button during a “busy channel” condition (other than your PL/DPL group) generates a continuous busy tone that lasts as long as the button is depressed. Time-Out Timer The time-out timer limits the amount of transmission time to a preset length (off, 30 or 60 seconds). At the end of this time an alert tone indi- cates that your transmission has been cut off. The alert will continue as long as the PTT switch is depressed.
May, 1997 6880904Z68-O 7 P110 16-Channel Portable Radios Alert Tone Indicators Low Battery Alert If the battery is low on your radio, an audible alert tone alerts you during transmit or receive mode. During transmit, on the release of the PTT button, the radio emits 2 medium pitched chirps. During receive/standby mode, the radio emits 2 medium pitched chirps. These tones emit approxi- mately every 20 minutes during transmit or receive mode until the battery is completely drained of power.
8 6880904Z68-O May, 1997 Scan and Signalling Alert Tones P110 16-Channel Portable Radios Scan and Signalling Alert Tones Transmit on Radios with PTT-ID When the PTT button is depressed a side tone is heard as the unit I.D. is being transmitted. When the tone ends, start your voice message in the standard manner. Selective Call A 2 beep alert tone is generated whenever a Selective Call is received, the radio unsquelches and the callers message is heard. Call Alert A 4 beep alert tone is generated whenever a Call Alert (page) is received. The alert tone repeats until the PTT or monitor button is pressed. Scan Activate A 1 beep alert tone is heard whenever scan is initiated by selecting a preprogrammed rotary scan channel location. Priority Alert Tone A 1 beep alert tone is heard if the radio is scanning and a conversation is initiated on the priority scan channel. Scan Talkback Tone A medium pitched 1 beep alert tone is sounded when you rotate the channel selector knob out of the scan position after the radio has locked on a channel and reaches the last active channel within the channel scan list.
