Auto-Range Transponder System

(ARTS)

ARTS is an analog-only feature designed to inform you when
your radio is out-of-range of other ARTS-equipped radios.

ARTS-equipped radios transmit or receive signals periodically
to confirm that they are within range of each other. Your dealer
can program your radio to transmit or receive the ARTS signal.

Your radio provides indications of states as follows:

First-Time Alert

A tone sounds and the display shows

In Range after the channel alias.

ARTS-in-Range Alert

A tone sounds, if programmed, and

the display shows In Range after the channel alias.

ARTS-Out-of-Range Alert

A tone sounds, the LED rapidly

blinks red, and the display alternates between Out of Range

and the home screen.

Over-the-Air Programming (OTAP)

Your radio can be updated by your dealer remotely, via OTAP,
without needing to be physically connected. Additionally, some
settings can also be configured via OTAP.

While undergoing OTAP, the LED blinks green.

NOTE: When the radio is receiving high volume data, the High

Volume Data icon appears and channel is busy. A PTT
button press at this time may cause a negative tone to
sound.

Once the programming is complete, depending on your radio’s
configuration:

A tone sounds, the display shows Updating Restarting,
and your radio restarts (powers off and on again).

Select between Restart Now or Postpone. Selecting
Postpone allows your radio to return to the previous display,

with an OTAP Timer icon visible, for a period of time before

the automatic restart occurs.

Upon power up after the automatic restart occurs, the display
shows Sw Update Completed if the OTAP update is successful
or Sw Update Failed if the OTAP update is unsuccessful.

See Software Update on page 83 for your updated software
version.
