INTRODUCTION

The ST-865M3 SmarTrunk II Logic Board is a microprocessor based radio trunking logic board designed for use with Motorola GP68 Radio. The ST-865M3 implements SmarTrunk II, an efficient radio channel allocation proto- col. The SmarTrunk II Logic Board controls all radio functions including channel scan, PTT, and all transmit and receive audio. In combination with the ST-852M SmarTrunk II Digital Trunking Controller, the Logic Board provides a complete

multi-channel digital access radio trunking system.

The ST-852M is the heart of the SmarTrunk II system. Programming and opera- tion is performed by the System Operator/Manager. Many of the programmable features of the ST-865M3 require information unique to a specific system. These system specifics can only be obtained from the System Operator/Manager.

In addition to SmarTrunk II trunking operation, the ST-865M3 has a conventional operating mode. This mode allows the radio to operate as a conventional two way radio on the programmed radio channels. Conventional mode can be disabled by the dealer.

The ST-865M3 offers the user the following features:

Store and send dialing

10 number memory speed dial (user programmable)

Last number re-dial

Different ringing tones to distinguish the type of call

Clear channel alerting tells subscriber when a channel is available

Ten levels of priority call override

Two trunking modes: radiotelephone and fleet dispatch

Capability of operation on SmarTrunk and conventional non-trunked radio channels

Automatic acknowledgment eliminates wasted airtime

Five digit security code for dealer programming

Remote Radio-Kill to disable illegal and non-paying customers

This manual is presented in four sections:

Section 1, Operation, describes operational features.

Section 2, Operating Modes, describes the operating modes available in a SmarTrunk II system.

Section 3, Installation, provides instructions for programming of radio frequencies and installation of the ST-865M3 logic board.

Section 4, Logic Board Programming, provides the installing technician instructions to configure the ST-865M3 by programming the resident

EEPROM.

Please read the entire manual before proceeding in order to take advantage of all the advanced features.
