TOP DISPLAY: 
In addition to the large color display on the front of  
the radio, the APX 6000 also have a smaller monochromatic 
display on the top of the radio.  
This small display is observable to the user when the radio is 
worn on the duty belt and can eliminate the need to remove 
the radio from its holster to change talk-groups or setting.  
The functionality of the small display mimics that of the larger 
display and many of the icons are the same, albeit in black-and-
white. On the top display, the selected zone and talk-group will 
alternate and flash continuously.  
It is possible to flip the display so that the text is easier to 
understand to the user when the radio is worn on a duty belt.  
To flip the display, press and hold the two-dot button located 
on the side of the radio (inset).  The top display will change to 
all red when an emergency call is received; it will change to all 
green when a private call or page is received.
