featuredportableradioprovidesVoiceGuardtwo-way
communicationsusingtheDataEncryptionStandard
(DES) algorithm. The M-PA Voice Guard radio pro-
videsfull-rangeperformanceforprivate(guarded)and
clear communications.
The cryptographic key in the radio provides the
encryptionanddecryptioncodenecessaryforprivate
communications. Only radios with the same crypto-
graphic key can monitor and communicate. Crypto-
graphic keys are transferred into the radio using DES
Keyloader,OptionV4025.
Operatingcontrolsontheradioincludearotatable
control knob, rotatable volume control, push-to-talk,
emergency and monitor buttons. The on/off power
switch forthe unit islocated on the removablebattery
pack.
The 8-digit alphanumeric liquid crystal display
(LCD) on the front of the radio displays the operating
statusoftheradio. Thisbacklitdisplay alsohaseight
statusflagsthatindicatevariousoperatingconditions
such as private communicationsenabled, transmitter

The exact operation of your radio will vary de-
pending upon the mode of operation, the radio’s pro-
gramming, and the particular radio system. Consult
your radio system’s representative for particular fea-
tures that are programmed into your radio.
CONTROLS
ON/OFF SWITCH
The ON/OFF SWITCH is located on the battery
pack. Sliding this switch up will supply power to the
radio from the battery pack. An audible click will be
heard and the "ON" indicator will be exposed. When
the radio is turned on, it will perform a power-up self
testandthenresumeoperationonthepreviousoper-
ating channel as displayed in the LCD. Sliding the
switch down will turn the radio off.
VOLUME CONTROL KNOB
The VOLUME CONTROL KNOB is a rotatable
control on the top of the radio used to adjust the
receiver’s audio level in the speaker. Rotating this
5

knob in a clockwise direction will increase the audio
level. Counter-clockwise rotation will decrease the
audiolevel. Minimumlevelsmaybeprogrammedinto
the radio to prevent missed calls due to too low of a
volume setting.
CONTROL KNOB
The rotatable 16-position CONTROL KNOB lo-
cated on the top of the radio selects the operating

UNIVERSAL DEVICE CONNECTOR
TheUniversalDeviceConnector(UDC)islocated
on the side of the radio just above the PTT and
MONITOR BUTTONS. This connector provides con-
nectionsfortheexternalaccessoriessuchasahead-
set,aspeaker-mike,oranemergencylanyard. When
the radio islocked in avehicular charger/repeater the
UDC provides the audio andcontrolconnections be-
tween the radio and the vehicular charger/repeater.
The UDC is also used by the maintenance personnel
when the radio is programmed.
ALERT TONES
The M-PA uses alert tones or "beeps" to indicate
various operating conditions. The alert tones may be
disabled when the radio is programmed.
CARRIER CONTROL TIMER
This feature, programmable on a per channel
basis,preventsunnecessarychanneltrafficandradio
damage in the event of a "stuck" mic. If the pro-
grammed timer times-out during a transmission the
radio will sound an alert tone and disable the trans-
mission. ThebeepingtonewillcontinueuntilthePTT
BUTTON is released. Releasing the PTT BUTTON
resets the timer.
CHANNEL BUSY
If the radio is receiving a signal when the PTT
BUTTON is pressed, an alert tone will warn the op-
erator that the radio is receiving a carrier and the
transmission will not occur. "RX BUSY" is displayed
andthealarmissoundedaslongasthePTTBUTTON

CRYPTOGRAPHIC KEY HANDLING
Cryptographic keys are transferred into the radio
using the Keyloader, Option V4025. Refer to the
Keyloader operator’s manual (LBI-31541) for detailed
instructions on how to load keys into the Keyloader.
The radio is capable of storing up to seven (7)
different cryptographic keys in its memory. It is pro-
grammed for key selection on a per channel basis.
Transferring Keys Into The Radio
The following procedure outlines basic key trans-
ferring steps. See LBI-31541 for more details.
1. Turn the radio off.
2. Plug the modular connector of the Key-
loader cable into the Keyloader’s modular
jack.
Before private messages can be sent or
received, one or more cryptographic keys
must be transferred into the radio from the
Keyloader.
NOTE

3. ConnecttheKeyloadercabletotheUDCon
the radio.
4. PressthePWRbuttonontheKeyloaderand
wait for the Keyloader to display "MASTER
MODE".
5. Press the TRN button on the Keyloader. If
necessary, select a different cryptographic
key to be transferred into the radio.
6. Turn the radio on. The display should read
"KEY LOAD".
7. Press the EXE button on the Keyloader to
transfer the key. The Keyloader will display
"GOOD 1.x TRANSFER" where "x" is the
selected cryptographic key number.
8. Disconnect the cable from the radio’s UDC.
A single beep will be heard from the radio’s
speaker if the power-up alert tone is en-
abled. Theradiowillchangetotheselected
channel as indicated in the display.
Key Zero
All cryptographic keys stored in the radio can be
zeroed or "dumped" by removing the battery pack for
several minutes (typically three). When the battery
pack is later reinstalled and the radio is powered-up,
itwilldisplay"KEYZERO"andemitaseriesofbeeps.
If cryptographic key(s) are zeroed, one or more keys
must betransferredinto the radiofromthe Keyloader
before private communications may continue. Disas-
sembling the front half of the radio from the rear half
will also zero all keys.
RECEIVING A MESSAGE
1. Slide the ON/OFF SWITCH on the battery
packtotheonposition. Theradiowillinitiate
and complete the power-up self-test and
beep if the power-up alert tone is pro-
grammed on.
2. Select the desired channel.
3. Press the MONITOR BUTTON to disable
squelch and adjust the VOLUME CON-
TROL for the approximate desired speaker
audio level. Pressing the MONITOR BUT-
TONmayaffectChannelGuardand/orType

selected channel.
4. If the selected channel is programmed for
private operation, the radio will automat-
ically switch between clear or private re-
ceive operation.
When an encrypted transmission is re-
ceived, the "PVT" status flag will flash, the
receiver will unsquelch, and the Voice
Guardmessagewillbeheardinthespeaker.
Theselectedchannelmustbeprogrammed
forprivateoperationand thecorrectcrypto-
graphic key must be loaded into the radio
for this to occur.
If a clear mode (non-encrypted) transmis-
sionisreceived, the receiverwillunsquelch
anditwillbeheardinthespeaker. However,
if the selected channel is programmed for
Channel Guard or Type 99 tone operation,
the receiver will not unsquelch unless the
correct CG or T99 tone is received.
5. Adjust the volume as necessary.
TRANSMITTING A MESSAGE
1. Select the desired channel. If a channel
programmed for private operation is se-
lectedandthereisnokeyintheradioforthe
selected channel "NO KEY x" (where "x" is
thekeynumber)willperiodicallyflashinthe
display. If a transmission is attempted, "NO
KEYx"willshowinthedisplayandtheradio
will emit a series of beeps and will not
transmit.
2. Ensure no one is transmitting on the se-
lected channel by pressing the MONITOR
BUTTON to disable squelch or observing
the display for the absence of the "BSY"
status flag. If the Channel Busy Lockout
feature is programmed for the selected
channel,theradiowillnottransmitwhenthe
channel is busy.
3. PressandholdthePTTBUTTON. The"TX"
and "BSY" status flags are displayed.
4. Hold the radio approximately three inches
from your mouth and speak into the micro-
phone in a normal voice.

mission is complete. If the transmission
exceeds the programmed Carrier Control
Timerlimit,the radiowill unkeyandanalert
tone will sound.
6. Listen for a reply.
EMERGENCY OPERATION
The radio may be programmed to transmit GE-
STAR emergency signalling when the EMERGENCY
BUTTON is pressed or from a UDC connected lan-
yard. If the EMERGENCY BUTTON is programmed
for GE-STAR emergency activation, press it for ap-
proximately one (1) second to activate the transmis-
sion. If the lanyard is programmed for activation,
follow the instructions provided with it. GE-STAR is
programmed to transmit in one of the following meth-
ods:
•GE-STARistransmittedonapredetermined

OPERATING TIPS
Antennalocationandconditionisimportantwhen
operatingaportableradio. Operatingtheradioinlow
areas of terrain, under power lines or bridges, inside
of a vehicle or in a metal or steel framed building can
severely reduce the range of the unit. Mountains and
buildings can also reduce the range of the unit.
Inareaswheretransmissionorreceptionispoor,
someimprovementmaybeobtained byinsuringthat
theantennaisvertical. Movingafewyardsinanother
direction or moving to a higher elevation may also
12

improve communication. Vehicular operationcan be
aidedwiththeuseofanexternallymountedantenna.
Battery condition is another important factor in
thetroublefreeoperationofaportableradio. Always
properly charge the batteries.
Always observe all of the Federal Communica-
tion Commission’s rules and regulations.
OPERATING RULES AND REGULATIONS
Two-way FM radio systems must be operated in
accordance with the rules and regulations of the
FederalCommunicationsCommission(FCC). Asan
operator of two-way radio equipment, you must be
thoroughly familiar with the rules that apply to your
particular type of radio operation. Following these
rules will help eliminate confusion, assure the most
efficientuseoftheexistingradiochannels,andresult
in a smoothly functioning radio network.
Whenusingyourtwo-wayradio,rememberthese
rules:
1. Itisaviolation of FCC rules tointerruptany
distress or emergency message. As your
radio operates in much the same way as a
telephone"partyline",alwayslistentomake
sure that the channel is clear and/or ob-
serve the display for the absence of the
"BSY" status flag before transmitting.
Emergency calls have priority overall other
messages. Ifsomeoneissendinganemer-
gencymessage-suchasreportingafireor
asking for help in an accident - KEEP OFF
THE AIR!
2. The use of profane or obscene language is
prohibited by Federal law.
3. Itisagainstthelawtosendfalsecallletters,
or false distress or emergency messages.
4. The FCC requires that you keep conversa-
tionsbriefandconfinethemtobusiness. To
save time, use coded messages whenever
possible.
5. Using your radio to send personal mes-
sages (except in an emergency) is a viola-
tionofFCCrules. Youmaysendonlythose
messages that are essential for the opera-
tion of yourbusiness.
13

6. It is against Federal law to repeat or other-
wisemakeknownanythingyouoverhearon
your radio. Conversations between others
sharing your channel must be regarded as
confidential.
7. The FCC requiresthat you identify yourself
at certain specific times by means of your
call letters. Refer to the rules that apply to
your particular type of operation for the
proper procedure.
8. No changes or adjustments shall be made
totheequipmentexceptbyanauthorizedor
certified electronic technician.

CHARGING THE BATTERY PACKS
After receiving a new rechargeable battery pack
from the factory, it should be fully charged before
placingitintoservice. Thisalso appliestorecharge-
ablebatteriesthathavebeenstoredforlongperiods.
When the battery pack requires charging the radio
will signal the operator with an alert tone and the
"BAT" status flag will turn on.
Chargers are available with nominal charge
times of 1 hour (rapid) and 14 hours (standard).
Combinations include single (1) and multi (5) posi-
tion,standardandrapidchargeunits. Inaddition,the
vehicular chargers/repeaters simultaneously charge
the battery packs while the radio is operating. For
specific instructions refer to the applicable charger
Operating Manual.
The rechargeable batteries used with the radio
candevelopareducedcapacityconditionsometimes
calledthe"MemoryEffect". Thisconditioncanoccur
when a battery is continuously charged for long
periods or when a regularly performed duty cycle
allows the battery to expend only a limited portion of
its capacity. The battery pack may show a severe
decrease in its ability to deliver full capacity for an
extended period. Any rechargeable battery pack
showing signs of reduced capacity should be re-
turned to a qualified service center for inspection.
