RADIO OVERVIEW
BATTERY FEATURES
About the Li-Ion Battery
The RM SeriesTM radio comes equipped with a rechargeable Li-Ion battery. This
battery should be charged fully before initial use to ensure optimum capacity
and performance.
Battery life is determined by several factors. 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, lasts 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, lasts even longer.
Motorola batteries are designed specifically 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. The battery should be at about 77°F (25°C) (room temperature), whenever possible. Charging a cold battery (below 50° F [10°C]) may result in leakage of electrolyte and ultimately in failure of the battery. Charging a hot battery (above 95°F [35°C]) 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.
13 English
RADIO OVERVIEW
Battery Recycling and Disposal
Li-Ion 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, batteries must be recycled and cannot be disposed
of in landfills or incinerators. Contact your local waste management agency
for specific requirements and information in your area. Motorola fully
endorses and encourages the recycling of Li-Ion batteries. In the U.S. and
Canada, Motorola participates in the nationwide Rechargeable Battery Recycling
Corporation (RBRC) program for Li-Ion battery collection and recycling.
Many retailers and dealers participate in this program. For the location of
the drop-off facility closest to you, access RBRC’s Internet web site at:
www.rbrc.com or call:
1-800-8-BATTERY This internet site and telephone number also provides other
useful information concerning recycling options for consumers, businesses and
governmental agencies.

Programming Mode FAQ
1. I got distracted while programming and forgot which feature I was
programming. What should I do?
Return to Idle’ Programming Mode and start over. You will not be able to return to Programming Mode (the radio does not provide further way to let you know the specific stage you are at in the Programming Mode). Therefore you can: · Long press the PTT button. The radio will return to
Idle’ Programming Mode
or,
· Turn OFF the radio and enter Programming Mode again. (Refer to “Entering
Advanced Configuration Mode” on page 33 for more information)
2. I am trying to program a frequency (or a code) value but the radio would
not do it. It rolled over and took me back to value `0′.
The radio disallow you to program any value that is not available in the
frequencies and
codes pool. For example, if you try to program code 220, the radio would not
accept it as the maximum value allowed is 219. Same goes for the frequencies.
Refer to the”Frequency and Code Charts” on page 53 to make sure you are
programming a valid value.
3. I am trying to enter the Programming Mode but the radio would not do it.
The radio may be locked using the CPS to disallow Front Panel Programming. To
reenable, use the CPS.
4. I programmed the wrong value when I was programming. How can I erase or
re-program the value?
If you programmed the wrong value, you can either:
· Roll-over’ the radio. The radio
roll-over’ each time it reaches the
maximum value allowed. Keep increasing (short press the SB1 button) or
decreasing (short press the SB2 button) until you get the desired value or,

OTHER PROGRAMMING FEATURES
Scan
Scan allows you to monitor other channels to detect conversations. When the radio detects a transmission, it stops scanning and goes to the active channel. This allows you to listen and talk to people in that channel without having to change channel manually. If there are transmissions on another channel, you will not hear that activity once the radio has stopped scanning. Once the activity on transmitting channel stops, the radio waits for 5 seconds before resuming scan again.
· To start scanning, press the SB1 or SB2 button
Note:
Scan has to be programmed either to SB1 or SB2 button via CPS. SB2 is by default Down Button for RMU2040/RMU2043/ RMM2050 models.
· To stop scanning, short press the SB1 or SB2
button (programmed for scan) again.
· By pressing the PTT button while the radio is scanning, the radio will transmit on the channel

CUSTOMER PROGRAMMING SOFTWARE (CPS)
Radio to be programmed
USB Ports CPS Programming Cable Drop-In Tray Charger Tray Figure 1: Setting up
the radio to the CPS
The easiest way to program or change features in your radio is by using the
Customer Programming Software (CPS) and the CPS Programming Cable(*). CPS
Software is available for free as web based downloadable software at:
www.motorolasolutions.com/RMseries
To program, connect the RM Series radio via the Drop-in Charger Tray and CPS Programming Cable as shown in Figure 1 on page 40.
CPS allows you to program frequencies, PL/ DPL Codes as well as other features such as: Bandwidth Select, Time-out Timer, Power Select, Scan List, Call Tones, Scramble, Reverse Burst, etc. CPS is a very useful tool as it can also lock the Front-Panel Radio Programming or restrict any specific radio feature to be changed (to avoid accidentally erasing the preset radio values). It also provides security by giving the option to set up a password for profile radio’s management. For more information, refer to Features Summary Chart Section at the end of the User Guide.
Note:
(*) CPS Programming Cable P/N# HKKN4027_ is an accessory sold separately. Please contact your Motorola point of purchase for more information.

Note:
Some frequencies may have FCC transmit power restrictions that do not allow them to be set at a higher power level. For details see the Frequencies and Code Chart Section.
Call Tones
Call Tones feature allows you to transmit an audible tone to other radios on the same channel to alert them that you are about to talk or to alert them without speaking.
To use this feature, the Call Tones must be programmed to either SB1 or SB2 and 1 of the 3 pre-recorded tones is selected.
Scramble
The Scramble feature makes transmissions sound garbled to anyone listening without the same code. Scramble default value is OFF. To change the scramble code during radio’s normal operation, the Scramble feature must be programmed to either SB1 or SB2.
41 English
PROGRAMMING FEATURES
Reverse Burst
Reverse Burst eliminates unwanted noise (squelch tail) during loss of carrier
detection. You can select values of either 180 or 240 to be compatible with
other radios. The default value is 180.
