ASTRO XTL 5000 Digital Mobile Radio with W4, W5, W7, and W9 3
Introduction
Note: In this manual—
Analog mode refers to a mode that uses traditional, non-ASTRO-
digital signaling.
ASTRO mode refers to a mode that uses ASTRO digital signaling.
Your ASTRO XTL 5000 Digital Mobile Radio utilizes Motorola’s
revolutionary FLASHport™ technology. This allows your radio’s
capabilities to be flexible, because FLASHport makes it possible to
add software that drives these capabilities both at the time of
purchase and later on. Previously, changing a radio’s features and
capabilities meant significant modifications, or buying a new radio.
But now, similar to how a computer can be loaded with different
software, your radio’s features and capabilities can be upgraded with
software.
FLASHport allows you to add software to your radio as your needs
change and as technology advances, making your radio investment
go further.
FLASHport is the future of radio communications, and it’s yet another
example of Motorola’s commitment to your satisfaction.
