Application and Installation Notes
The front panel lens is a critical cosmetic and protective component in mobile radio installations. This lens protects the LCD display and internal electronics from dust, moisture, and physical damage while providing a professional branded appearance that clearly identifies the radio model. The clear window area allows operators to easily read channel information, frequency data, and status messages on the LCD display even in bright sunlight or low-light conditions. The three LED indicator windows provide at-a-glance status information without requiring the operator to read the full display, essential for quick operational awareness while driving or during emergency situations.
Installation requires partial disassembly of the PM400 mobile radio and should be performed by qualified radio technicians or experienced installers. Begin by removing the radio from its mounting bracket and disconnecting power and antenna connections. Remove the front panel assembly following Motorola service procedures, typically involving removal of screws from the radio housing. Carefully separate the old lens from the front panel assembly, noting the position of any alignment tabs or clips. Clean the mounting surface thoroughly to remove any adhesive residue, dust, or debris. Install the new lens by aligning the mounting tabs with their corresponding slots in the front panel assembly, ensuring the LCD window, LED indicators, and button cutouts are properly positioned. Press firmly to seat the lens completely before reassembling the radio.
This lens should be replaced when the original becomes scratched, cracked, discolored, or when the printed text becomes worn or illegible from UV exposure and environmental wear. Damaged lenses can allow moisture infiltration that may damage internal electronics, reduce display visibility that compromises operational safety, or present an unprofessional appearance for commercial or public safety installations. Common replacement scenarios include fleet refurbishment, used radio reconditioning, or repair of radios that have suffered physical damage or extended outdoor exposure.
Perfect for mobile radio installers, fleet maintenance departments, Motorola authorized service centers, and communications equipment refurbishment facilities servicing PM400 radios used in commercial, public safety, utility, and industrial mobile communications applications.
