GLOSSARY
Quik Call II A two-tone sequential tone signally system.
Radio Check A signalling feature that lets your radio be polled to see if it is turned on and in range. The
Software user receives no indication of the poll, except perhaps a brief lighting of the transmit or busy
light.Radio Service Software purchased by Motorola product resellers through a license
agreement that is delivered on a 5 1/4" and 3 1/2" diskettes and used to program two-way
radios with a unique set of features, called personalities.
Read The transfer of information from the radio codeplug to the computer's temporary memory
(RAM) via the RIB communication link.
Receive The center of the receive channel in MHz.
Frequency
Recent User The ability of the Motorola Central Controller to ensure uninterrupted communications to a
Priority recent user of the trunked system. Recent User Priority ensures that a group engaged in a
conversation will get priority access even if there is a significant delay between
transmissions.
Repeater An electric device with transmit and receive capabilities. A repeater will retransmit
information at 125, 70, or 35 Watts of power. A trunked repeater used in 800 MHz trunking
systems will typically have the transmit and receive frequencies separated 45 MHz
depending upon the original communications system configuration.
RIB Radio Interface Box.- used to connect a computer system to a radio for the purpose of
communication between the radio and the computer. The RIB consist of level-shifting
circuits that convert from the standard RSS-232 voltage levels of the computer asynchronous
serial interface to the single-ended voltage levels present on the Serial Bus contacts of the
radio's feature connector. In conjunction with the RIB, an appropriate RIB-to-cable and RIB-
to-computer cable must be used.
Radio Interface A cable that allows the radio to be connected (interfaced) with a computer for programming
Cable or tuning.
RAM Random Access Memory. The PC's RAM is used to store the radio's codeplug data while it
is being viewed or modified. These changes will not become permanent in the radio's
codeplug until the radio is programmed.
Read The operation by which a radio's codeplug information is transferred from the radio's
EEPROM to the workspace via the RIB.
RSS Radio Service Software
RSS-232 An asynchronous serial data transmission standard that defines the required sequencing,
and hardware interface.
Rx Receiver
Save The means by which a radio's codeplug information is transferred from the workspace to a
personality file.
Screen A list of functions that are accessed by pressing a function key.
Sub-directory A subdivision of a directory that contains a group of related files. Sub-directories are used to
organize your disks.
