    An information label is attached to the back of your radio (chassis), just under the battery contacts. A radio model number is shown on this label. A typical model number might be H01UCC6DU3AN. The fourth position of the model number (in this case “U”) iden- tifies the operating frequency band of the radio.

  • Page 24: Telephone Interconnect

    Telephone Interconnect Your MTX•LS radio is equipped with Telephone Interconnect, which allows you to receive calls from landline telephones through the trunking system central computer. Calls from the landline user can be private or can include a whole group. Keep in mind that a radio operator can either talk or listen at one time, whereas the landline user has duplex (talk and listen) opera- tion.

  • Page 26: Scan

    Scan Scan is a feature that allows your MTX•LS portable radio to search for, lock onto, and monitor activity on conventional channels or trunked groups. For mode slaved scan, as many as sixteen modes can be RSS programmed, which may include up to 14 trunked modes or up to 10 conventional channels.
  • Page 27: All Group Scan

    All Group Scan In All Group Scan, all groups within the mode (selected via the 16- position switch) will be scanned. If the mode selected is pro- grammed with this feature, scanning begins with a long press (ap- proximately 1.5 seconds - RSS programmable) of side button 1. During All Group Scan, the LED double-blinks yellow.
  • Page 28: Battery Information

    Recharge the battery before use to ensure optimum capacity and performance. The battery was designed specifically to be used with a Motorola charger. Charging in non-Motorola equipment may lead to battery damage and void the battery warranty. NOTE: Note: When charging a battery that is attached to the radio, turn the radio off to ensure a full charge.
  • Page 29: Short Circuit

    Memory effect is a phenomenon which causes a temporary loss in battery capacity or voltage due to repetitive shallow discharging or long-term overcharging. This memory effect has been virtually eliminated from Motorola batteries through the use of new cell technology. Battery Disposal For disposal, nickel-cadmium sealed rechargeable batteries should be delivered to an authorized metals-reclamation dealer.
