SAFETY
1. Do NOT operate your portable radio, without a handsfree kit, whilst
driving a vehicle.
2. 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.
3. Do NOT dispose of batteries in a fire.
EMR SAFETY
The SRP9100 portable radio transceiver complies with the RF exposure
guidelines as defined in the ARPANSA* standard "Radiation Exposure Levels
to Radiofrequency fields – 3kHz to 300GHz", Schedule 5 when:
(1) the radio is operated by an "aware" user and
(2) the transmit duty cycle does not exceed 50% over a six minute period
and
(3) the normal operation entails the antenna being separated from the
users body by not less than 2.5cm.

HINTS FOR SING THE RADIO
• When speaking, hold the radio a few centimeters from your mouth and
speak across it, rather than into it. The microphone is located near the
top left of the portable radio’s speaker grille.
• Keep the length of your conversation to a minimum to conserve battery
life.
• 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.

1. INTROD CTION
1.1 O VERVIEW
The SRP9100 Series Radios are a family of versatile Digital Signal Processor
(DSP) controlled, two-way portable radios.
The SRP9100 Series is available in a number of frequency bands and
versions for specific applications. This manual describes the operation of the
SRP9130 PMR model with a 12 key keypad and SRP9120 PMR without
numeric keypad.
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.
A wide range of accessories is available to complement the SRP9100 series
radios, including chargers, antenna, headsets, covert kits, holsters and carry
cases. Refer to Simoco for comprehensive descriptions.
This guide describes the facilities that are currently available and can be
programmed into the PMR mode of the SRP9100. This guide is applicable to
SRM9100 Rev2 incorporating a dot matrix display.
1.2 C ONFIG RATION
Before you can use the SRP9100, it must be configured using the Field
Personality Programmer (FPP). The configuration process loads the
customised radio channels, signalling and user options so that the radio will
operate with your system.
Although this manual defines the configuration and use of the PMR mode, the
radio can be configured easily to trunk mode using the FPP.
