Motorola mt2000 manual

The Product Planning guides as well as some sales literature may show two model numbers for the same station, with no explanation of what the differences are. These stations are identical; one number is used when the station is ordered through a dealer, while the other number is used when the station is ordered directly from Motorola inside sales. Thanks to Eric, now we all know. Schematics and service manuals for the MTR stations are very dfficult to acquire The MTR manuals were never orderable through the parts system like other product lines.

If anybody has any manuals or repair info that they would like to donate to this page let us know. A number of stations have had the watt station power supply fail, possibly due to power glitches on the incoming power line. The watt station power supply is a switcher and is a fragile beast built in layers, obviously designed for ease of assembly with no consideration given to disassembly.

The only easy repair is to replace the varistors that are across the AC power input. The most common failure mode is that the power supply does not work on AC but does on DC input The software runs under Windows 3. It was never upgraded to run under bit Windows. The programming cable does not need a RIB - just a serial cable that can be made from an Ethernet cable and a female DEpin connector. See these two photos: Photo 1 and Photo 2.

Ths author has a Panasonic CF-series Toughbook that is dedicated to radio programming. The MTR can be run as a full duplex base station or as a repeater. It could go on like this forever and may never ID. The MTR station is multi-microprocessor based, and crossband oeration was not one of the design requirements. It has a control module under the card cage and microprocessor based receiver and exciter modules.

The control board has the programming and microphone connectors protruduing out the front of the module. The RSS-generated codeplug is loaded into the control board which completely controls the receiver and exciter modules and whatever is plugged into the card cage the RF Power amp is cabled to the exciter. The RSS can be hex edited to allow out of band frequencies to be entered and loaded into the control board but the firmware in the receiver and exciter will prevent out of band operation.

Your PM's are not private and the administration has the right to read them if there's a hint to criminal activity. If you are having trouble legally obtaining software please state so.

We do not want any hurt feelings when your vague post is mistaken for a free request. It is YOUR responsibility to properly word your request. To obtain Motorola software see the Sticky in the Motorola forum. The various other vendors often permit their dealers to sell the software online i. Please use Google or some other search engine to find a dealer that sells the software.

Typically each series or individual radio requires its own software package. One package is for conventional programming and the other for trunked programming. The conventional package is more reasonable though is still several hundred dollars.

The benefit is you do not need multiple versions for each radio unlike Motorola. This is a large and very visible forum.

Any help would be great. Specifically I need to know how to select what channels I want the radio to scan and which ones I don't.

Sounds crazy but the people in charge don't like to give the users of the radio much flexibility in programing and I would like more. You should be able to order a users manual from Motorola. Unfortunately, any button or menu item can be setup as Scan Program. If your radio shop doesn't want people to reprogram scan lists, they probably haven't setup a scan program button or menu item.

MMIC Member. Joined Oct 9, Messages Location Inside of the circuit Mike's right - the entire radio is completely configurable by the programmer. They can enable and disable the ability for the end user to change the scan lists.

If one appears, press the dot ". Then a menu should appear that says "SCAN". Press the dot ". At this point, you should be able to page through the channels in your zone with the channel selector, and change zones with the right and left arrows.

Members that are in the scan list have a "Z" above the talk group name. Page Section 5. The time required to READ a codeplug will depend directly on your computer type and the size of the codeplug you are reading. Page Reading Codeplug Data You may read the codeplug from the radio or from the archive disk.

After reading, the codeplug will be checked for valid serial number, model number, check sums, etc. An archive copy of every radio installed or serviced is strongly recommended to be able to quickly restore customer information in case of a codeplug failure. This must be no more than 8 characters with a 3 character extension. Model Number This is the radio model number which should correspond to the model number printed on the label under the radio's battery. A radio interface box RIB is required to perform this operation.

Software Option None Serial Number Software Option This field will detail any software options programmed - applies to Private System model numbers only. Serial Number This is the radio serial number stored in the codeplug, which should correspond to the serial number printed on the label under the radio's battery. Page Section 6. Enabled Min Alert Tone Volume Factory default is Enabled. If the volume pot setting is above this level, then the actual volume setting will be used.

Factory default is Disabled. Enabled Unmute Option Disabled Channel Delay sec No audible or visual indicators will occur. This feature is not compatible with Emergency Receive. The AGC will automatically raise or lower the gain of the microphone to keep the audio level near a pre-determined level. Conventional Buttons: Blank - No function. Press Help F1 for a list of possible selections. Two Position Concentric Position B Conventional and Trunking This field determines the function of the two-position switch when it is in the position marked with the 0 symbol.

Use F7 to add, and F9 to delete trunked items. Depending on your radio version and model number, you will be able to choose from all or some of the functions listed below. Disabled Phone Num Display Format None Phone Number The factory default is Disabled. The dialing options are: Immediate Live - Connects when entering phone mode, live dial. Immediate Buffered - Connects when entering phone mode, buffered dial.

Press F3. Press F5. Selected Chan - The radio will use the last selected channel as the priority channel. First priority and second priority may not both be the selected channel.

Fixed - The radio uses a selected member of the scan list, as the priority channel. Disabled Carrier Detect Required Disabled Priority Scan Alert A channel deleted using this option will remain deleted until scan is stopped. Factory default is 6 seconds. System Search Time sec This timer value determines how long the radio will stay on a control channel 0 to seconds with 1 second increments searching for talkgroups which are in the scan list before scanning the next system.

Left Alt Display Time ms Factory default is Left. The light will time out per the Display Light Time just as if the light button had been pressed. ID Only Half duplex means that communication can take place in one direction at a time only. Full duplex allows communication in both directions at the same time. If a radio remains inactive while operating in failsoft for this specified time in seconds , the radio will momentarily leave failsoft and attempt to find a control channel.

A value of zero here indicates that the radio will not leave failsoft. The default is I System ID Disabled System Type Disabled Individual ID Smart Zone - New Motorola system for wide area roaming. Disabled - Disable wide area coverage. In an AMSS system, multiple sites are linked together to form a larger trunked system. Radios programmed for Wide Area AMSS can use the site that they are within range of, and when they move between sites, the radio can switch sites without interruption of communications that are in progress.

A system key or FTR key is required to access this field. Otherwise, the TCMS download procedure must be used. For any size code the subfleets for Fleetwide and Dynamic Regrouping are always available.

The valid range for the Fleet I depends on the size code chosen. End Freq - Start Freq must be evenly divisible by the channel spacing so the range can be divided into an integer value to assign the control channel number properly.

Factory default is High. The radio contains a table with four sets of values of these parameters. Disabled Index I Private Call Type Unlimited Type IIi Private Call Type Phone Interconnect Unlimited Size Code Type II is an enhanced version of the original protocol that provides additional fleet management flexibility for a given system via an expanded signalling format.

The talk permit tone is a series of three quick tones that sound once the PTT button has been pressed and your radio has keyed up on the voice channel assigned by the trunked central controller.
