Location
The Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) integrates information from the Global Positioning
System (GPS) and the Global Navigation Satellite System (GLONASS) to determine the approximate
geographical location of your radio.
The radio also supports the following features:
Indoor Positioning
This feature allows your radio location to be tracked through Wi-Fi or cellular modem when
satellite signal is unavailable. Your radio is able to continually report the current location to other
radios using SmartMapping and CommandCentral Aware through SmartLocate, even when you are
located indoors.
NOTE: This feature is enabled through RadioCentral or Customer Programming Software
(CPS). Contact your system administrator for more information.
SmartLocate
The SmartLocate feature allows the radio to send its own location securely over broadband or LMR
depending on how the radio is configured. For LMR, the radio requires a system with an Intelligent
Middleware (IMW) configured along with a CommandCentral Cloud Connector.
NOTE: This feature is a selling feature.
SmartMapping
This feature allows you to view your current location and the location of other devices/units in a
map or list view.
NOTE: This feature is a selling feature.
The dispatcher can always request the system to determine the real-time location of the radio.
NOTE: The Location feature is sometimes referred to as GPS in the manual, as the naming
convention of the buttons and strings follows that of the legacy GPS feature.
