INTRODUCTION
The Aegis
M-PA
Select, Scan and System
portable radios are high-performance two-way radios
that provide clear voice, Aegis digital, and Aegis
private communications. The Select, Scan and Sys-
tem radios are also compatible with Voice Guard
®
communication systems. Personality programming
allows maximum integration flexibility into a public
service radio system.
The radio must be equipped with the encrypt/de-
crypt option before operation in Aegis private or Voice
Guard modes is possible. This option allows the radio
to communicate using highly secure state-of-the-art
Aegis and Voice Guard encryption and decryption
techniques.
Operating controls include a rotatable control
knob, rotatable volume control, push-to-talk, emer-
gency and monitor buttons. In addition, the Scan
model includes an eight-button keypad while the
System model includes a 16-button keypad. The
on/off power switch for the unit is located on the
removable battery pack.
The 8-digit alphanumeric liquid crystal display
(LCD) on the front of the radio displays the operating
status of the radio. This backlit display also provides
twelve status flags (Scan and System) or eight status
flags (Select) that indicate various operating condi-
tions such as private communications enabled, trans-
mitter on, scanning, or emergency mode enabled.
The exact operation of your radio will vary de-
pending upon the mode of operation, the radio’s
programming, and the particular radio system. Con-
sult your radio system’s representative for particular
features 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
test and then resume operation on the previous
operating channel as displayed in the LCD. Sliding
the switch down will turn the radio off.
