Description
Intercom mode allows users at various Model 390 Remotes to talk to one
another without keying the radio and tying up a channel.
To enter intercom mode:
1. Press the Intercom key. The Intercom LEDs on all the Model 390
Remotes will flash.
2. To talk to someone at another Model 390 Remote, press and hold the
Transmit key while speaking into the front panel microphone, or remove
the handset from the cradle and press and hold the PTT bar while
speaking into the handset. While any Model 390 Remote is sending
audio, the Intercom LEDs on all the Model 390 Remotes turn on steady.
3. To listen for a response, release the Transmit key or the PTT bar.
4. To exit intercom mode, press the Intercom key on any Model 390
Remote. The Intercom LEDs will all turn off.
As long as the Intercom LED is flashing, the system is in intercom mode, and
pressing the Transmit key or the PTT bar does not key the radio, but only
transmits to the other Model 390 Remotes on the system. While listening in
the intercom mode, receive audio from the radio can still be heard.
If no key is pressed on any Model 390 Remote for 30 seconds, intercom mode
times out, and the system returns to normal operation.
Intercom mode may be disabled through system programming. For

the remote to indicate that the receive audio is muted. Note that mute mode
does not time out and that it does not affect any other Model 390 Remotes. To
unmute the audio, press the Mute key again, and the Mute LED turns off.
Secure mode allows a user at one Model 390 Remote to talk to someone over
the air without anyone at parallel Model 390 Remotes hearing either side of
the conversion or being able to control the radio. It effectively locks these
users out, leaving one person in full control of the radio.
NOTE: Even in secure mode, communications over the channel occur
normally, giving no additional security beyond that which the radio provides.
To enter secure mode, press the Secure Mode key. The Secure Mode LED
comes on. The Secure Mode LEDs on all the other Model 390 Remotes blink
to indicate that they cannot control the radio. The Mute LEDs also illuminate

indicate that their receive audio is being muted.
The radio may be controlled as usual by the person who initiated secure
mode, and current radio status continues to be displayed on all Model 390
Remotes.
As long as the Secure Mode LED is on, users at all other Model 390 remotes

Headset
An optional headset interface box may be used to plug a headset into a Model
390 Remote in place of the handset. Alternatively, a headset with flying leads
may be connected directly to screw terminals in the Model 390 Remote. In
the first case, the external headset interface box, the headset replaces the
handset. If the headset is interfaced by means of the screw terminals inside
the remote, then the headset is in parallel with the handset. There are three
possible setups for switching between the headset and the front panel speaker
and mic (or desk mic):
1. Permanently enable the headset, thereby permanently disabling the front
panel microphone and speaker as well as any desk microphone and
external amplified speaker. This involves shorting two screw terminals
together. The radio is taken on and off hook by lifting the handset from
and replacing it to its cradle.
2. Leave the handset in its cradle while using the front panel microphone and
speaker, then lift the handset off hook while using the headset. Use an
external closure to ground, such as a footswitch, to activate the headset.
Press the switch to use the headset. Release the switch to use the front
panel microphone and speaker. Again, the radios hook switch is
controlled by the handsets hook switch, regardless of the state of the
headset.
3. Use the jack sense signal on the optional headset interface box to activate
and deactivate the headset. Plug the headset into the box to use it, and
unplug the headset to use the front panel microphone and speaker. Just as
with the first possible setup, the radio hook switch is controlled by the
handsets hook switch, regardless of the state of the headset.
Footswitch
A footswitch may be used to control PTT for the front panel microphone or
an external desk microphone. Footswitches may also be used for headset PTT
and headset takeover. Headset takeover controls whether the headset or the
front panel mic and speaker are active.

Overview
Installation
!
Caution!
This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy.
If not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual and
commonly used radio practices, it may cause interference to radio
communications. Installation of the Model 390 TETRA/PEI Radio Remote
system should be accomplished by personnel who have experience with
remotes and radio systems.
Overview
Figure 5 shows a typical system installation, with the Model 390-P Radio Interface colocated with the radio. As shown in the figure, a modular telephone cable connects the
interface to a telephone wall jack. In-building telephone wiring connects that wall jack to
a punchdown block in a central location. In-building telephone wiring also runs from this
punchdown block to wall jacks near the desired locations of the Model 390 Remotes.
Finally, modular telephone cables connect the Model 390 Remotes to these wall jacks,
completing the circuit. The remotes can either sit on a desk or be mounted on a wall.
!
Caution!
The radio and the radio interface should be co-located whenever possible.
The interface should NOT be separately grounded. It is important that the
radio interface ground is through the radio interface cable and the radio.

Installation Phases
Installing the Model 390 TETRA/PEI Radio Remote system can be broken down into
three phases:
1. Configuring system components
2. Installing and connecting system components
3. Initializing the system
Before starting to install the system, be sure to read through this entire section to become
familiar with the components, the system functions, and how different settings interact
with each other. Before starting, you should know which system functions you want to
enable for which remotes. For example, which remotes in the system are to be Supervisor
remotes?

In-building Wiring
The connection between the remotes and the radio interface requires three twisted pairs
of wires, 24 gauge or larger. Typically this would be in-building telephone wiring
terminating at modular wall jacks at the locations of the radio interface and each remote.
The modular cables supplied with the radio interface and remotes require 6-conductor
RJ11 jacks where pins 1 and 6 make a pair, 2 and 5 make a pair, and 3 and 4 make a pair.
The remotes may be connected in any configuration (star, T, or multi-drop) as long as no
remote is located more than 600 metres (electrically) from the radio interface.

Follow the directions in the Motorola installation manual to install either variant of the
Motorola MTM800E radio (data expansion head model or desk/dash mount) or the
MTM5400 radio (data expansion head model or desk/dash mount). Be sure to turn the
radio off before connecting the radio interface.
The installation procedure requires the supplied Zetron interface cable appropriate to the
radio being used:
MTM5400 use part number 709-8019 (for the data expansion head model) or
the cable 709-7980 with the Junction Box GMLN5089 (for the desk/ dash mount
models)
These cables are about three feet long and have the following connections: DE-15 D-sub,
DE-9 D-sub, Motorola Accessory connector (either 16-pin or 26-pin).
Use one of the following two procedures, depending on whether you have the data
expansion head model or the desktop/dash-mount model:
Connecting the radio interface to the Motorola radio (with data expansion
head):
1. Using the supplied cable, connect the DE-15 D-sub connector into the correct
jack of the Model 390-P radio interface (Radio).

one to TB3 pin 3 (Ground).
Connect the PTT signal to TB3 pin 1 (External PTT). This must be a closure
to ground when active (keyed). If the mic PTT output consists of two wires,
connect one to TB3 pin 1 and the other to TB3 pin 3. Make sure that JP8 is in
the position A to activate the desk mic when this input goes active.
Connect the microphones ground lead to TB3 pin 3.
Headset
If the headset interface box is used, plug the headset into the interface box.
Unplug the handset from the remote and plug the interface box into the jack
where the handset was attached (J5 on the remotes main PCB).
If the jack sense signal from the headset interface box is used to control
headset takeover, connect it to TB3 pin 6 (Headset Takeover).
If the headset has flying leads, connect the headset mic audio to TB3 pin 4
(Headset mic) and the headset speaker audio to TB3 pin 7 (Headset speaker).
Connect the ground lead to TB3 pin 3 (Ground). If the headset has a PTT
switch, connect it to TB3 pin 5 (Headset PTT).
If a footswitch or other closure to ground is used for the headset PTT, connect
one end of it to TB3 pin 5 and the other end to TB3 pin 3.

Connections
Use TB3 pin12 (Supervisor Takeover) to activate an external relay to
disconnect downstream remotes. When the remote initiates secure mode, this
output is pulled to ground.
This output can also be set to be triggered on the receipt of an incoming
private and/or emergency call. This is useful to trigger an external alarm or
notification. When used in this manner, the output can no longer be used for
Supervisor Takeover.
For programming details related to this auxiliary output, see Deskset aux
output control on page 86.
Power-up
To power up the remotes, either plug the wall transformer into a power outlet or connect
the 12 Vdc supply, as appropriate. To turn the radio interface on, simply plug it into the
radio and provide power to the radio. The interface will turn the radio on and reboot it.
The system should now be functioning.
The sequence of events observed at the radio interface and the desktop remote should be:
66
The Model 390-P Radio Interface will start as soon as power is applied
If SW1 - D is in the Up position, the radio interface unit will run an internal
RAM diagnostic which takes several seconds to complete, this is indicated by all
of the front panel LEDS (including the Ethernet LED) remaining lit for the
duration of the test
If SW-1 is in the Down position, the radio finishes booting up much more
quickly
After the radio interface completes booting up, it sends a command to the Model
390 desktop remote to turn on all of its LEDs simultaneously, this indicates a
reset of the desktop remote
The radio interface unit attempts to initialize a connection with the radio using
the PEI port. This condition is indicated at the desktop remote displays by the
appearance of the message: Deskset Ready, followed by the software
version (for example M390 Interface S/W: 1.80.310), and finally
Waiting for Radio
025-9659C
After establishing a connection to the radio, the radio interface will read the
TMO and DMO talkgroup IDs programmed into the radio as well as any alias
text strings, the more talkgroups programmed the longer this will take, the
desktop remote will display the message Reading Radio followed by a
spinning activity indicator while this takes place
Once the radio has been read, the system will enter the Group operating mode,
displaying the talkgroup folder, number, and text alias.
Level Setting
Interface levels are factory set and should not require adjustment. However, should the
need arise to adjust the audio levels to match local conditions; it is possible to cause the
remote to generate a 1 KHz test tone.
To generate a 1-kHz (approx.) test tone for testing the audio path, simultaneously press
the TX ( TX ) and Intercom ( ) keys on the remote. Press any key to cancel the tone. It
is also possible, if desired, to key up the radio and transmit the tone.

Requirements
The Model 390-P Radio Interface is programmed through its Network interface using a
standard web browser or FTP client. The unit must be programmed before it will operate
properly. Once initial programming is complete, however, the Model 390-P Radio
Interface will continue to function normally during further programming, so its
configuration may be modified live. This section covers connecting to the product,
modifying the configuration with a web browser, saving and restoring the configuration
with an FTP client, and viewing the configuration and firmware versions.
Requirements
To program the system, you will need the following:
Please note that most but not all networks and network cards capable of supporting
100-BASE-T operation will also automatically detect and support 10-BASE-T operation.
69
Setup
This section describes how to prepare the system for programming. In order to program a
Model 390-P Radio Interface, it must be physically connected to the computer or to the
network to which the computer is connected, and both the computer and Model 390-P
Radio Interface must be properly configured to talk to one another. There are two
different methods to accomplish this. Which way is best depends on whether the Model
390-P Radio Interface has been previously configured and the level of security required.

Netmask
255.255.255.0
Gateway
192.168.0.2
Password
Installer = 8206363
User = 8206363
3. The final step is to modify the network settings of the computer to talk to the
Model 390-P Radio Interface. Specifically, set the netmask to the same value as
in the Model 390-P Radio Interface, and set the IP address to a valid value for the
70

netmask, but not the same as the Model 390-P Radio Interface. If the Model
390-P Radio Interface is set to its defaults, for example, the following settings are
appropriate for the computer:
Parameter
IP Address
192.168.0.3
Netmask
255.255.255.0
Gateway
192.168.0.2
HTTP Access
Once the Model 390-P Radio Interface has been connected to the computer over a
network (even if that network is just a crossover cable), a web browser may be used to
view and edit the configuration, save a copy of the configuration to disk, view the
firmware and configuration versions, and undo firmware updates and configuration
changes.
Note
Connecting
Connecting to the Model 390-P Radio Interface over a network
1. The Model 390-P Radio Interface may be accessed by typing its IP address into
the Address bar in Internet Explorer 6.0 or later. The opening page (see Figure
12) will ask for the password.
2. After entering the Installer password, click on the Login button. The main menu
screen appears with the following options: View or Modify System
Configuration, View or Modify User Configuration, Versions and Revert,
Save Files, Logout, and Reboot Model 390-P Radio Interface.
From this point on, it is very important not to use the BACK button on the web browser.
Doing so may cause unexpected results.

FTP Access
Uploading a saved configuration file to a Model 390-P Radio Interface or upgrading its
executable requires the use of an FTP client. Any FTP client may be used, including the
one that comes with Windows.
When using the FTP mode to access the Model 390-P Radio Interface, the unit still
makes the distinction between the Installer and User passwords. It limits access to the
files handled accordingly.
3. Enter the lcd command to shift the focus of the client to the directory containing
(or that will contain) the configuration or firmware files for the unit to be
programmed. For example: lcd C:\M390P The FTP client responds with
Local directory now C:\M390P
4. Connect to the Model 390-P by entering the open command followed by the unit
IP address and press the Enter key. For example: open 192.168.0.133
The FTP client responds with:
Connected to 192.168.0.133
220 FTP server ready
5. The unit will prompt for a user name with the following string:
User <192.168.0.133:<none>>:
However, no user name is required so you can simply press the Enter key and
move on.
6. The next prompt is:
331 Password required
Password:
Enter the installer password programmed into the unit and press the Enter key.
(The default installer password is 8206363.) If the unit recognizes password, it
responds with 230 Installer logged on <Version 2.00.0238>.
78
025-9659C
FTP Access
7. Once the password has been validated, entering put filename uploads a file from
the computer hard drive to the Model 390-P Radio Interface. (Entering get
filename downloads a file from the Model 390-P Radio Interface to the computer
hard drive. Entering dir lists the files available for download.)
8. Enter bye to end the session.
Note
Use the FTP client to upload the file to the Model 390-P Radio Interface.
Be sure to list the files available for download and make sure that there is no
errors.txt file. If there is, it means that the configuration file contained errors.
Downloading and viewing the errors.txt file should provide enough information to
correct the problem, since config.txt is a simple text file that can be edited with any text
editor such as Notepad.
Upgrading the units firmware involves uploading the .binary file received as part of
the upgrade and ensuring that no errors.txt file is generated. (The file extension is the
full word .binary, not .bin.)
2. In the FTP Client window, use the lcd command to change the directory focus
on the local machine to the directory that holds the binary file you wish to load
onto the remote Model 390-P Radio Interface. For example:
lcd C:/M390P
3. Enter the command ftp IP_address to connect to the remote Model 390-P Radio
Interface. For example:
open 192.168.0.133
4. The Radio Interface will prompt for a password. Type the unit password at the
prompt and press the Enter key. (The default Installer password is 8206363.)
79
The radio interface should respond with the message 230 Installer
logged on <Version 2.00.0238>.
5. At the ftp> prompt, type the command bin. The unit should respond with the
message 200 Type set to I.
6. At the ftp> prompt, type the put command followed by the name of the binary
file to load. For example: ftp> put m390p.binary
7. The FTP client will appear to pause for about 20 seconds and then issue a new
ftp> prompt. If the upload was successful, the Model 390-P Radio Interface
will reboot (indicated by the front panel Ethernet LED turning off, then red, and
then green) for a few seconds after the new prompt appears. To close the FTP
client, enter the command bye at the ftp> prompt.

Radio Parameters
The Radio Parameters page is a rather lengthy one, and for that reason is divided into
several parts. The first section holds generic, radio-related settings. The second section is
radio specific settings (the heading will display MTM800E or MTM5400, depending on
what is selected for Radio Type). The remaining 5 lists are scan group settings to be used
by the remote when it is controlling/displaying scan group operation by the radio.
Parameter
82
Description
Radio Type
The radio type is selected from a drop-down list. The options are
MTM800E or MTM5400.
The Peak Level From Console is the highest peak audio level that might
be sent from the remote to the Model 390-P Radio Interface. It is typically
10 dBm and should not need to be changed. If the line between the
console and the Model 390-P Radio Interface has a fixed line loss, this
value may be reduced. If the level is reduced, the installer should ensure
that the peak audio measured at the Model 390-P Radio Interface Desk
port never exceeds this setting.
The Audio Level From Console parameter specifies the level at which
average voice audio, from the remote, reaches the Model 390-P Radio
Interface. The average voice audio level is represented as a 1 KHz tone for
this measurement. This level must account for any losses on the line
between the remote and the Model 390-P Radio Interface and is expressed
in dBm. A value of 0 dBm is equivalent to 0.775 Vrms. The default is -7
dBm.

The Audio Level To Radio parameter specifies the level at which average
voice audio from the Model 390-P Radio Interface is sent to the radio.
The average voice audio level is represented as a 1 KHz tone for this
measurement. This level is expressed in dBm. A value of 0 dBm is
equivalent to 0.775 Vrms. The default is -3 dBm.
The Audio Level From Radio parameter specifies the level at which
average voice audio from the radio reaches the Model 390-P Radio
Interface. The average voice audio level is represented as a 1 KHz tone for
this measurement. This level is expressed in dBm. A value of 0 dBm is
equivalent to 0.775 Vrms. The default is -8 dBm.
Normal TETRA
Call Priority
This parameter allows the system operator to set the priority level used to
place normal calls. The default value is 11. The value used will depend on
radio provisioning and the programming of the system on which the radio
is used.
Preemptive TETRA
Call Priority
This parameter allows the system operator to set the priority level used to
place preemptive calls. The default value is 14. The value used will
depend on radio provisioning and the programming of the system on
which the radio is used.
83
Scan Lists
Each of the five scan lists has room for 10 TMO Group ID entries (GSSIs). For each ID
entry, the list holds a scan ID string and a priority setting.

Description
Handset Selects, Never, or Always
Using the handset to place a Private Call automatically shifts the audio
to full-duplex mode. This changes as expected if the Never or Always
options are selected. If the handset is off-hook when the Select key is
pressed to initiate a call, the call takes place in full duplex mode. If the
handset is still on-hook when the Select key is pressed, then the call
takes place in half-duplex mode.
Note: Currently the MTM800E radio does not support full duplex
operation, so both modes will seem the same to the persons involved
in the call.

remote hangs up the handset.
Enable / Disable
When set to Enable, this option allows the hook switch on the remotes
to clear down a call. When set to Disable (default), the users must
press the Cancel key on the remote to clear down calls.
127 seconds
This option sets the transmit time-out time. The value entered is the
number of seconds that a Model 390-P Remote can continually key the
radio before the radio interface will cancel transmit. This may be set
from 1 to 127 seconds in increments of 1 second. The feature may be
disabled entirely by entering zero (for safety and reliability reasons,
this is not recommended). The default is 127 seconds.

JP5 is in the correct position, then pressing both the Mute and Cancel
keys together will reset the radio. For more information on key strokes
see Radio Reset on page 46, and see Table 3 on page 57 for jumper
settings.

Parameter
Deskset aux output
control
Description
Disable, Secure, Private Call
Each desktop remote has an auxiliary output (a FET pull-down) that
can be triggered by several different control events. This output is
usually wired to an external relay to allow the remote to control other
equipment.
Enable / Disable
When set to Enable, the deskset audio is routed through an AGC
module to limit the audio level delivered to the inputs of the radio.
20.0 dBm
This parameter sets the maximum amount of compression used by the
AGC circuit when active. Its range is from 0 to 20.0 dBm. The default
setting is 20.0 dBm.
User Parameters
The parameters found under the User heading cover such things address books, alias lists,
scan lists, call history, and others. Because these lists are not often accessed by the
dispatch operator and do not lend themselves to being handled by means of the small
display and limited keys of either the desktop unit or the radio, they are taken care of in
the browser-based configuration tool.

Service Hints
The Model 390 TETRA/PEI Radio Remote system takes advantage of the latest in
hardware and software techniques to minimize the complexity and parts count of the
units. This provides for better reliability so that the units should not require service.
However, in case of failure, first go through the installation procedure again. If your
installation checks out, your dealer should be able to advise you on troubleshooting the
system.
In case of further difficulty, contact Zetron technical support. Please have the serial
number of the unit and/or the Zetron order number. If the call is made from the
installation site by the installer or radio technician, the problem can usually be solved
over the phone.
