P110 Portable Radios

Operation

5.If programmed as a Volume Set Button (manual moni- tor), the radio has the ability to monitor until the button is released. While pressed, a “rushing noise” will be present which indicates the current level setting of the volume control.

NOTE

All P110 radio models have an internal squelch setting which is adjusted at the factory. The squelch level setting is not a user-operated con- trol; however, it may be reprogrammed using the Radio Service Software available at your local Motorola Radius dealer.

To Transmit

1.Set the channel selector to the desired channel position.

2.Do not interrupt another user. Listen for activity on your channel. If the channel on which you are transmitting is programmed to receive PL/DPL, momentarily depress the control button to listen for channel activity. The channel must be clear before transmitting.

3.While holding the radio in a vertical position with the speaker-microphone grille two to three inches from your mouth, press the PTT button on the side of the radio and speak slowly and clearly into the grille area. When finished transmitting, release the PTT button to receive. When the PTT button is depressed, the LED glows red and remains on for the entire length of the transmission, and turns off when the PTT button is released.

NOTE

When the PTT button is depressed (and as long as the PTT button remains depressed), The battery voltage is automatically monitored and if the voltage is low, the LED flashes red to alert you of the low battery condition. In addition, a double alert tone is sounded when the PTT but- ton is released.
