Imbalanced Coverage
Imbalanced coverage occurs when the radio is able to receive the control channel but is unable to
transmit back to the system. The radio generates a periodic tone and displays No Comms.
7.24.3
Out-of-Range Radio
Your radio can no longer lock onto a control channel when out-of-range from the system.
When out-of-range, your radio shows the following indications:
• A tone sounds.
• The display shows the currently selected zone or channel combination, and out-of-range
notification.
Your radio remains in this out-of-range condition until it locks onto a control channel or failsoft channel,
or if it is turned off.

SmartConnect
SmartConnect allows your radio to maintain voice communication when LMR is out of range by
switching to a Wi-Fi, LTE through Tethered Data Modem and Satellite through Ethernet.
Before switching broadband connections, your radio compares the relative signal strength of the
various broadband connection types to one another, as well as LMR. Your radio remains or returns
to LMR when all the other broadband connections fall below the quality thresholds. SmartConnect
selects Wi-Fi over LTE when both broadband connections are considered the same quality according
to the SmartConnect quality threshold. Otherwise, the highest quality broadband adapter is selected.
In addition, a radio operating on a lower priority broadband connection returns to the higher priority or
quality connection while idle on SmartConnect.
Your radio can connect through a fixed Wi-Fi access point in buildings or in-vehicle Broadband modem
such as the following modems:
• Motorola Solutions VML750
• Sierra Wireless MP70
• Sierra Wireless GX450
Your radio displays the SmartConnect capable icon
on the SmartConnect enabled channel.
While switching from LMR to SmartConnect, your radio displays Searching Site. When the device is
connected to an available network, your radio displays the SmartConnect Connection icon.
