Safety
Do NOT operate your radio, without a handsfree kit, whilst driving a vehicle.
Do NOT operate your radio in an explosive atmosphere.
Obey the 'Turn Off Two-way Radios' signs where these are posted, e.g. on a petrol station
forecourt.
Do NOT touch the antenna while the radio is transmitting.
Do NOT operate the radio if the antenna has become disconnected or damaged.
Hints for sing the Radio
When speaking, hold the microphone a few centimetres from your mouth and speak across it,
rather than into it.
Keep the length of your conversation to a minimum and replace the microphone on its cradle
after use.
When it is possible to move location, avoid making calls from known poor signal-strength
areas such as the radio systems fringe areas (limit of range) or from screened or shadowed
areas, e.g. an underground car park or underpass.
To avoid unnecessary drain on the vehicle battery, keep the engine running when transmitting
for extensive periods of time.

1. INTROD CTION
1.1 O VERVIEW
The SRM9000 Series Radios are versatile Digital Signal Processor (DSP) controlled, two-way
mobile radios. The SRM9000 Series is available in a number of frequency bands and
versions for specific applications. This manual describes the operation of the SRM9030plus
PMR variant.
The radio consists of a Transceiver unit that may be mounted in the vehicle boot or under a
seat, and a Control Unit, which is designed to mount on the vehicle console or within view and
reach of the driver. A microphone and speaker connected to the control unit provide the
audio interface.
The radio is software programmable and it can be customised to the operational requirements
of your particular fleet. Your Simoco representative can help in programming your radio
facilities to meet your present and future requirements.
This guide describes the facilities that are currently available and can be programmed into the
SRM9030plus.
1.2 I
NSTALLATION
As the installation of your SRM9030plus Radio is a technical and possibly hazardous
operation, we recommend that it is installed and set up for use by your dealer or an
authorised installer. However, if you need information regarding the correct procedures for
installation, please refer to the SRM9000 Series Installation Instructions supplied with the
radio.

3. MEN SYSTEM
The SRM9030plus radio software uses a programmed Menu structure to enable the operator
to access all of the radio options. The structure of the menu (comprising up to thirteen
screens) can be programmed to meet the specific needs of individual customers. Figure 2
illustrates the complete menu structure of the radio.
Any or all of the Screens can be programmed or hidden with the following provisos:
• The Main Menu provides access to the usual Screens required to operate the radio.
• The Setup Sub-Menus provide access to the radio setup parameters.
• When options are placed in a Setup Sub-Menu, Setup should be offered as a sub
menu in the Main Menu selection.
• Both the Main Menu and the Setup submenus can each hold up to ten Screens.
Programming of menus is a configuration task normally performed by the system manager
using programmer software.
