W A R N I N G Failure to use an FMRC Approved Product unit with an FMRC Approved battery or FMRC Approved accessories specically approved for that product may result in the dangerously unsafe condition of an unapproved radio combination being used in a hazardous location. Unauthorized or incorrect modication of an FMRC Approved Product unit will negate the Approval rating of the product. Repair of FMRC Approved Products REPAIRS FOR MOTOROLA PRODUCTS WITH FMRC APPROVAL ARE THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE USER. You should not repair or relabel any Motorola- manufactured communication equipment bearing the FMRC Approval label (FMRC Approved Product) unless you are familiar with the current FMRC Approval standard for repairs and service (Class Number 3605). You may want to consider using a repair facility that operates under 3605 repair service approval.

W A R N I N G Incorrect repair or relabeling of any FMRC Approved Product unit could adversely affect the Approval rating of the unit. Use of a radio that is not intrinsically safe in a hazardous atmosphere could result in serious injury or death. FMRCs Approval Standard Class Number 3605 is subject to change at any time without notice to you, so you may want to obtain a current copy of 3605 from FMRC. Per the December 1994 publication of 3605, some key denitions and service requirements are as follows:

ASTRO Digital XTS 5000 Model III xv 95C08-O_XTS5k_800MHz_Mdl3.book Page xvi Thursday, August 23, 2001 2:52 PM Safety and General Information Repair A repair constitutes something done internally to the unit that would bring it back to its original conditionApproved by FMRC. A repair should be done in an FMRC Approved facility. Items not considered as repairs are those in which an action is performed on a unit which does not require the outer casing of the unit to be opened in a manner which exposes the internal electrical circuits of the unit. You do not have to be an FMRC Approved Repair Facility to perform these actions. Relabeling The repair facility shall have a method by which the replacement of FMRC Approval labels are controlled to ensure that any relabeling is limited to units that were originally shipped from the Manufacturer with an FM Approval label in place. FMRC Approval labels shall not be stocked by the repair facility. An FMRC Approval label shall be ordered from the original manufacturer, as needed, to repair a specic unit. Replacement labels may be obtained and applied by the repair facility, provided there is satisfactory evidence that the unit being relabeled was originally an FMRC Approved unit. Verication may include, but is not limited to: a unit with a damaged Approval label, a unit with a defective housing displaying an Approval label, or a customer invoice indicating the serial number of the unit and purchase of an FMRC Approved model. Do Not Substitute Options or Accessories The Motorola communications equipment certied by Factory Mutual is tested as a system and consists of the FM Approved portable, FM Approved battery, and FM Approved accessories or options, or both. This FM Approved portable and battery combination must be strictly observed. There must be no substitution of items, even if the substitute has been previously Approved with a different Motorola communications equipment unit. Approved congurations are listed in the FM Approval Guide published by FMRC, or in the product FM Supplement. This FM Supplement is shipped from the manufacturer with the FM Approved radio and battery combination. The Approval Guide, or the Approval Standard Class Number 3605 document for repairs and service, can be ordered directly from Factory Mutual Research Corporation located in Norwood, Massachusetts. xvi 95C08-O_XTS5k_800MHz_Mdl3.book Page 1 Thursday, August 23, 2001 2:52 PM General Radio Operation Notations Used in This Manual Throughout the text in this publication, you will notice the use of WARNINGS, Cautions, and Notes.

Your radio can have up to 20 different scan lists. These lists must be preprogrammed by a qualied radio technician. To view your radios scan lists, see View a List on page 40. To change your radios scan lists, see Edit a Scan List on page 46. Types of Scan Lists Three types of scan lists are available:

Trunking Priority Monitor Comprises channels that are all from the same trunking system (10 different channels maximum). Conventional Comprises only conventional channels (15 different channels maximum). Talkgroup Scan Comprises conventional and trunked channels from one trunking system (10 different channels maximum). Priority operation is not available in this type of list. Types of Scanning There are several types of scanning available:

Priority-One Scanning S One member of the scan list is chosen as the priority-one member. You hear all of the trafc on the priority-one channel, even if the non-priority channels in the scan list have trafc on them. Priority-Two Scanning S and Non-Priority Scanning T In addition to the priority-one channel, a second channel can be assigned as a priority-two channel. The remaining members in the scan list can be programmed as non-priority members of the scan list.

When smart PTT is enabled in your radio, you will not be able to transmit on an active channel. If you try to transmit on an active smart-PTT channel, you will hear an alert tone, and the transmission will be inhibited. The LED will also blink red to indicate that the channel is busy. Three radio-wide variations of smart PTT are available:

Transmit Inhibit on Busy Channel with Carrier Transmit Inhibit on Busy Channel with Wrong Squelch Code Quick-Key Override You cannot transmit if any trafc is detected on the channel. You cannot transmit on an active channel with a squelch code or (if secure-

equipped) encryption key other than your own. If the PL code is the same as yours, the transmission will not be prevented. This feature can work in conjunction with either of the two above variations. You can override the transmit-inhibit state by quick-keying the radio. In other words, two PTT Button presses within the preprogrammed time limit.

!

C a u t i o n The XTS 5000 radio casting has two vent ports that allow for pressure equalization in the radio. Never poke these vents with any objects, such as needles, tweezers, or screwdrivers. This could create leak paths into the radio and the radios submergibility will be lost.

(For XTS 5000 R Radios Only) The XTS 5000 R radio is designed to be submerged to a maximum depth of 6 feet, with a maximum submersion time of 4 hours. Exceeding either maximum limit may result in damage to the radio. If the radio battery contact area has been submerged in water, dry and clean the radio battery contacts before attaching a battery to the radio. Otherwise, the water could short-circuit the radio. If the radio has been submerged in water, shake the radio well so that any water that may be trapped inside the speaker grille and microphone port can be removed. Otherwise, the water will decrease the audio quality of the radio. Do not disassemble the radio. This could damage radio seals and result in leak paths into the radio. Any radio maintenance should be performed only by a qualied radio technician.

1 Combine one teaspoon of mild dishwashing detergent to one gallon of water (0.5% solution). 2 Apply the solution sparingly with a stiff, non-metallic, short-

bristled brush, making sure excess detergent does not get entrapped near the connectors, controls or crevices. Dry the radio thoroughly with a soft, lint-free cloth. 3 Clean battery contacts with a lint-free cloth to remove dirt or grease.

!

C a u t i o n Do not use solvents to clean your radio. Spirits may permanently damage the radio housing. Do not submerge the radio in the detergent solution. Handling Do not pound, drop, or throw the radio unnecessarily. Never carry the radio by the antenna. Avoid subjecting the radio to an excess of liquids. Do not submerge the radio unless it is a ruggedized, XTS 5000 R model. Avoid subjecting the radio to corrosives, solvents or spirits. Do not disassemble the radio. Keep the accessory-connector cover in place until ready to use the connector. Replace the cover immediately once the accessory has been disconnected. 88 95C08-O_XTS5k_800MHz_Mdl3.book Page 89 Thursday, August 23, 2001 2:52 PM Helpful Tips Service Proper repair and maintenance procedures will assure efcient operation and long life for this product.

Among the more critical are the regular overcharge of batteries and the average depth of discharge with each cycle. Typically, the greater the overcharge and the deeper the average discharge, the fewer cycles a battery will last. For example, a battery which is overcharged and discharged 100%

several times a day, will last fewer cycles than a battery that receives less of an overcharge and is discharged to 50% per day. Further, a battery which receives minimal overcharging and averages only 25%

discharge, will last even longer. Charging the Battery Motorola batteries are designed specically to be used with a Motorola charger and vice-versa. Charging in non-Motorola equipment may lead to battery damage and void the battery warranty. Motorola-authorized battery chargers may not charge batteries other than the ones listed on page 95. The battery should be at about 77F (25C) (room temperature), whenever possible. Charging a cold battery (below 50 F [10C]) may result in leakage of electrolyte and ultimately in failure of the battery. Charging a hot battery (above 95F [35C]) results in reduced discharge capacity, affecting the performance of the radio. Motorola rapid-rate battery chargers contain a temperature-sensing circuit to ensure that batteries are charged within the temperature limits stated above. Battery Charge Status Your radio can indicate your batterys charge status through:

LED and sounds conventional and smart fuel gauge symbols on the display 90 95C08-O_XTS5k_800MHz_Mdl3.book Page 91 Thursday, August 23, 2001 2:52 PM Helpful Tips LED and Sounds When your battery is low:

you see the LED ash red when the PTT button is pressed you hear a low-battery chirp (short, high-pitched tone) Conventional Fuel Gauge Symbol A ashing fuel gauge symbol (b) is displayed only when the battery voltage drops to low level. In this case, replace the battery with a fully charged one. Smart Fuel Gauge Symbol Consult the Smart Battery manual. All conditions must be met for a battery to be classied as a Smart Battery. When your radio has a Smart Battery installed, the fuel gauge symbol is always displayed. Gauge shows if the batterys charge is 71% to 100% full b j k l 10% or less (at 10%, the gauge begins ashing) 41% to 70%

11% to 40%

Replace the battery with a fully charged one when the fuel gauge shows the lowest level. Battery Recycling and Disposal Nickel-cadmium (NiCd) rechargeable batteries can be recycled. However, recycling facilities may not be available in all areas. Under various U.S. state laws and the laws of several other countries, NiCd batteries must be recycled and cannot be disposed of in landlls or incinerators. Contact your local waste management agency for specic requirements and information in your area. Motorola fully endorses and encourages the recycling of NiCd batteries.

To assure optimal radio performance and make sure human exposure to radio frequency electromagnetic energy (EME) is within the guidelines set forth in the above standards, always adhere to the following procedures:

Two-Way Radio Operation When using your radio as a traditional two-way radio, hold the radio in a vertical position with the microphone 1 to 2 inches (2.5 to 5.0 cm) away from your lips. MAN WITH RADI Body-Worn Operation To maintain compliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines, if you wear a radio on your body when transmitting, always place the radio in a Motorola approved clip, holder, holster, case, or body harness for this product. Use of non-Motorola-approved accessories may exceed FCC RF exposure guidelines. If you do not use a Motorola approved body-worn accessory and are not using the radio in the intended use positions along side of the head in the phone mode or in front of the face in the two-way radio mode, then ensure the antenna and radio is kept the following minimum distances from the body when transmitting:

Phone or Two-way radio mode: one inch (2.5 centimeters) Data operation using any data feature with or without an accessory cable: one inch (2.5 centimeters) viii 95C08-O_XTS5k_800MHz_Mdl3.book Page ix Monday, August 27, 2001 9:09 AM Safety and General Information Antenna Care Use only the supplied or an approved replacement antenna. Unauthorized antennas, modications, or attachments could damage the radio and may violate FCC regulations. DO NOT hold the antenna when the radio is IN USE. Holding the antenna affects call quality and may cause the radio to operate at a higher power level than needed. Approved Accessories For a list of approved Motorola accessories look in the appendix or accessory section of this manual. Electromagnetic Interference/Compatibility Note: Nearly every electronic device is susceptible to electromagnetic interference (EMI) if inadequately shielded, designed, or otherwise congured for electromagnetic compatibility. Facilities To avoid electromagnetic interference and/or compatibility conicts, turn off your radio in any facility where posted notices instruct you to do so. Hospitals or health care facilities may be using equipment that is sensitive to external RF energy. Aircraft When instructed to do so, turn off your radio when on board an aircraft. Any use of a radio must be in accordance with applicable regulations per airline crew instructions. Medical Devices Pacemakers The Health Industry Manufacturers Association recommends that a minimum separation of 6 inches (15 centimeters) be maintained between a handheld wireless radio and a pacemaker. These ASTRO Digital XTS 5000 Model III ix 95C08-O_XTS5k_800MHz_Mdl3.book Page x Monday, August 27, 2001 9:09 AM Safety and General Information recommendations are consistent with those of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. Persons with pacemakers should:

ALWAYS keep the radio more than 6 inches (15 centimeters) from their pacemaker when the radio is turned ON. not carry the radio in the breast pocket. use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the potential for interference. turn the radio OFF immediately if you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking place. Hearing Aids Some digital wireless radios may interfere with some hearing aids. In the event of such interference, you may want to consult your hearing aid manufacturer to discuss alternatives. Other Medical Devices If you use any other personal medical device, consult the manufacturer of your device to determine if it is adequately shielded from RF energy. Your physician may be able to assist you in obtaining this information. Use While Driving Check the laws and regulations on the use of radios in the area where you drive. Always obey them. When using your radio while driving, please:

Give full attention to driving and to the road. Use hands-free operation, if available. Pull off the road and park before making or answering a call if driving conditions so require. x 95C08-O_XTS5k_800MHz_Mdl3.book Page xi Monday, August 27, 2001 9:09 AM Safety and General Information Operational Warnings

C a u t i o n Antennas Do not use any portable radio that has a damaged antenna. If a damaged antenna comes into contact with your skin, a minor burn can result. Batteries All batteries can cause property damage and/or bodily injury such as burns if a conductive material such as jewelry, keys, or beaded chains touches exposed terminals. The conductive material may complete an electrical circuit (short circuit) and become quite hot. Exercise care in handling any charged battery, particularly when placing it inside a pocket, purse, or other container with metal objects. xii 95C08-O_XTS5k_800MHz_Mdl3.book Page xiii Monday, August 27, 2001 9:09 AM Safety and General Information Intrinsically Safe Radio Information FMRC Approved Equipment Anyone intending to use a radio in a location where hazardous concentrations of ammable materials exist (hazardous atmosphere) is advised to become familiar with the subject of intrinsic safety and with the National Electric Code NFPA 70 (National Fire Protection Association) Article 500 (hazardous [classied] locations). An Approval Guide, issued by Factory Mutual Research Corporation

(FMRC), lists manufacturers and the products approved by FMRC for use in such locations. FMRC has also issued a voluntary approval standard for repair service (Class Number 3605). FM APPROVED MAEPF-24560-O FMRC Approval labels are attached to the radio to identify the unit as being FM Approved for specied hazardous atmospheres. This label species the hazardous Class/Division/Group along with the part number of the battery that must be used. Depending on the design of the portable unit, this FM label can be found on the back or the bottom of the radio housing. The FM Approval mark is shown here.

W A R N I N G Failure to use an FMRC Approved Product unit with an FMRC Approved battery or FMRC Approved accessories specically approved for that product may result in the dangerously unsafe condition of an unapproved radio combination being used in a hazardous location. Unauthorized or incorrect modication of an FMRC Approved Product unit will negate the Approval rating of the product. Repair of FMRC Approved Products REPAIRS FOR MOTOROLA PRODUCTS WITH FMRC APPROVAL ARE THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE USER. You should not repair or relabel any Motorola- manufactured communication equipment bearing the FMRC Approval label (FMRC Approved Product) unless you are familiar with the current FMRC Approval standard for repairs and service (Class Number 3605). You may want to consider using a repair facility that operates under 3605 repair service approval.

W A R N I N G Incorrect repair or relabeling of any FMRC Approved Product unit could adversely affect the Approval rating of the unit. Use of a radio that is not intrinsically safe in a hazardous atmosphere could result in serious injury or death. FMRCs Approval Standard Class Number 3605 is subject to change at any time without notice to you, so you may want to obtain a current copy of 3605 from FMRC. Per the December 1994 publication of 3605, some key denitions and service requirements are as follows:

ASTRO Digital XTS 5000 Model III xv 95C08-O_XTS5k_800MHz_Mdl3.book Page xvi Monday, August 27, 2001 9:09 AM Safety and General Information Repair A repair constitutes something done internally to the unit that would bring it back to its original conditionApproved by FMRC. A repair should be done in an FMRC Approved facility. Items not considered as repairs are those in which an action is performed on a unit which does not require the outer casing of the unit to be opened in a manner which exposes the internal electrical circuits of the unit. You do not have to be an FMRC Approved Repair Facility to perform these actions. Relabeling The repair facility shall have a method by which the replacement of FMRC Approval labels are controlled to ensure that any relabeling is limited to units that were originally shipped from the Manufacturer with an FM Approval label in place. FMRC Approval labels shall not be stocked by the repair facility. An FMRC Approval label shall be ordered from the original manufacturer, as needed, to repair a specic unit. Replacement labels may be obtained and applied by the repair facility, provided there is satisfactory evidence that the unit being relabeled was originally an FMRC Approved unit. Verication may include, but is not limited to: a unit with a damaged Approval label, a unit with a defective housing displaying an Approval label, or a customer invoice indicating the serial number of the unit and purchase of an FMRC Approved model. Do Not Substitute Options or Accessories The Motorola communications equipment certied by Factory Mutual is tested as a system and consists of the FM Approved portable, FM Approved battery, and FM Approved accessories or options, or both. This FM Approved portable and battery combination must be strictly observed. There must be no substitution of items, even if the substitute has been previously Approved with a different Motorola communications equipment unit. Approved congurations are listed in the FM Approval Guide published by FMRC, or in the product FM Supplement. This FM Supplement is shipped from the manufacturer with the FM Approved radio and battery combination. The Approval Guide, or the Approval Standard Class Number 3605 document for repairs and service, can be ordered directly from Factory Mutual Research Corporation located in Norwood, Massachusetts. xvi 95C08-O_XTS5k_800MHz_Mdl3.book Page 1 Monday, August 27, 2001 9:09 AM General Radio Operation Notations Used in This Manual Throughout the text in this publication, you will notice the use of WARNINGS, Cautions, and Notes.

Your radio can have up to 20 different scan lists. These lists must be preprogrammed by a qualied radio technician. To view your radios scan lists, see View a List on page 40. To change your radios scan lists, see Edit a Scan List on page 46. Types of Scan Lists Three types of scan lists are available:

Trunking Priority Monitor Comprises channels that are all from the same trunking system (10 different channels maximum). Conventional Comprises only conventional channels (15 different channels maximum). Talkgroup Scan Comprises conventional and trunked channels from one trunking system (10 different channels maximum). Priority operation is not available in this type of list. Types of Scanning There are several types of scanning available:

Priority-One Scanning S One member of the scan list is chosen as the priority-one member. You hear all of the trafc on the priority-one channel, even if the non-priority channels in the scan list have trafc on them. Priority-Two Scanning S and Non-Priority Scanning T In addition to the priority-one channel, a second channel can be assigned as a priority-two channel. The remaining members in the scan list can be programmed as non-priority members of the scan list.

When smart PTT is enabled in your radio, you will not be able to transmit on an active channel. If you try to transmit on an active smart-PTT channel, you will hear an alert tone, and the transmission will be inhibited. The LED will also blink red to indicate that the channel is busy. Three radio-wide variations of smart PTT are available:

Transmit Inhibit on Busy Channel with Carrier Transmit Inhibit on Busy Channel with Wrong Squelch Code Quick-Key Override You cannot transmit if any trafc is detected on the channel. You cannot transmit on an active channel with a squelch code or (if secure-

equipped) encryption key other than your own. If the PL code is the same as yours, the transmission will not be prevented. This feature can work in conjunction with either of the two above variations. You can override the transmit-inhibit state by quick-keying the radio. In other words, two PTT Button presses within the preprogrammed time limit.

This feature is typically used during special operations and is enabled by a qualied radio technician. You will not notice whether your radio has this feature enabled until a dynamic regrouping command is sent by the dispatcher. If you try to access a zone or channel that has been reserved by the dispatcher as a dynamically regrouped mode for other users, you will hear an invalid tone. When your radio is dynamically regrouped, it automatically switches to the dynamically regrouped channel. You see the dynamically regrouped channels name, and hear a gurgle tone. Press the PTT button to talk;

release it to listen. When the dispatcher cancels dynamic regrouping, the radio automatically returns to the zone and channel that you were using before the radio was dynamically regrouped.

!

C a u t i o n The XTS 5000 radio casting has two vent ports that allow for pressure equalization in the radio. Never poke these vents with any objects, such as needles, tweezers, or screwdrivers. This could create leak paths into the radio and the radios submergibility will be lost.

(For XTS 5000 R Radios Only) The XTS 5000 R radio is designed to be submerged to a maximum depth of 6 feet, with a maximum submersion time of 4 hours. Exceeding either maximum limit may result in damage to the radio. If the radio battery contact area has been submerged in water, dry and clean the radio battery contacts before attaching a battery to the radio. Otherwise, the water could short-circuit the radio. If the radio has been submerged in water, shake the radio well so that any water that may be trapped inside the speaker grille and microphone port can be removed. Otherwise, the water will decrease the audio quality of the radio. Do not disassemble the radio. This could damage radio seals and result in leak paths into the radio. Any radio maintenance should be performed only by a qualied radio technician.

1 Combine one teaspoon of mild dishwashing detergent to one gallon of water (0.5% solution). 2 Apply the solution sparingly with a stiff, non-metallic, short-

bristled brush, making sure excess detergent does not get entrapped near the connectors, controls or crevices. Dry the radio thoroughly with a soft, lint-free cloth. 3 Clean battery contacts with a lint-free cloth to remove dirt or grease.

!

C a u t i o n Do not use solvents to clean your radio. Spirits may permanently damage the radio housing. Do not submerge the radio in the detergent solution. Handling Do not pound, drop, or throw the radio unnecessarily. Never carry the radio by the antenna. Avoid subjecting the radio to an excess of liquids. Do not submerge the radio unless it is a ruggedized, XTS 5000 R model. Avoid subjecting the radio to corrosives, solvents or spirits. Do not disassemble the radio. Keep the accessory-connector cover in place until ready to use the connector. Replace the cover immediately once the accessory has been disconnected. 88 95C08-O_XTS5k_800MHz_Mdl3.book Page 89 Monday, August 27, 2001 9:09 AM Helpful Tips Service Proper repair and maintenance procedures will assure efcient operation and long life for this product.

Among the more critical are the regular overcharge of batteries and the average depth of discharge with each cycle. Typically, the greater the overcharge and the deeper the average discharge, the fewer cycles a battery will last. For example, a battery which is overcharged and discharged 100%

several times a day, will last fewer cycles than a battery that receives less of an overcharge and is discharged to 50% per day. Further, a battery which receives minimal overcharging and averages only 25%

discharge, will last even longer. Charging the Battery Motorola batteries are designed specically to be used with a Motorola charger and vice-versa. Charging in non-Motorola equipment may lead to battery damage and void the battery warranty. Motorola-authorized battery chargers may not charge batteries other than the ones listed on page 95. The battery should be at about 77F (25C) (room temperature), whenever possible. Charging a cold battery (below 50 F [10C]) may result in leakage of electrolyte and ultimately in failure of the battery. Charging a hot battery (above 95F [35C]) results in reduced discharge capacity, affecting the performance of the radio. Motorola rapid-rate battery chargers contain a temperature-sensing circuit to ensure that batteries are charged within the temperature limits stated above. Battery Charge Status Your radio can indicate your batterys charge status through:

LED and sounds conventional and smart fuel gauge symbols on the display 90 95C08-O_XTS5k_800MHz_Mdl3.book Page 91 Monday, August 27, 2001 9:09 AM Helpful Tips LED and Sounds When your battery is low:

you see the LED ash red when the PTT button is pressed you hear a low-battery chirp (short, high-pitched tone) Conventional Fuel Gauge Symbol A ashing fuel gauge symbol (b) is displayed only when the battery voltage drops to low level. In this case, replace the battery with a fully charged one. Smart Fuel Gauge Symbol Consult the Smart Battery manual. All conditions must be met for a battery to be classied as a Smart Battery. When your radio has a Smart Battery installed, the fuel gauge symbol is always displayed. Gauge shows if the batterys charge is 71% to 100% full b j k l 10% or less (at 10%, the gauge begins ashing) 41% to 70%

11% to 40%

Replace the battery with a fully charged one when the fuel gauge shows the lowest level. Battery Recycling and Disposal Nickel-cadmium (NiCd) rechargeable batteries can be recycled. However, recycling facilities may not be available in all areas. Under various U.S. state laws and the laws of several other countries, NiCd batteries must be recycled and cannot be disposed of in landlls or incinerators. Contact your local waste management agency for specic requirements and information in your area. Motorola fully endorses and encourages the recycling of NiCd batteries.
