Guide to ASTRO™ Digital Radios
Figure 6.5 A photo illustration of an XTS 5000™ with the location-data feature enabled, with a HMN4080A GPS-capable speaker-microphone
attached. Note the awkward and dysfunctional display format of the data, which is not supported by many third-party mapping applications.
When configured as such, the user may opt to disable the data feature (OFF) so the radio does not send GPS data over the air.
The XTS 5000™ model II and III models are also capable of displaying Intelligent Motorola
Portable Radio Energy System (IMPRES™) data on the display. When an IMPRES™ battery is attached to
the radio, and the BATT soft-menu is enabled in the CPS, the user is able to observe the rated capacity,
the remaining capacity and the total number of established charges since the battery has seen. A
compatible IMPRES™ charger must be used if a user wishes to use the IMPRES™ features of the battery.
Otherwise, the IMPRES™ chip in the battery will disable itself and the IMPRES™ functionality is null.

the battery gauge in the upper-right display.
The XTS 5000™ and XTS 2500™ ASTRO25™ portable radios also support a new feature called
Text Messaging Service (TMS). It allows users to send short text messages (almost identical to SMS
messaging on cellular networks, except with a different addressing scheme) to each other. This feature
is also useful for dispatching call-related information to emergency services. This feature requires two
prerequisites: Host and DSP firmware version R09.00.00 or newer and CPS version R09.00.00 or newer.
