About Location Services
Introducing XRS™ Connect Location Services – a new era for UHF CB radio.
Location & Status
XRS™ Connect Location Services enables users to send, receive and display GPS location with each transmission. Combining the power of XRS™ with the GPS engine and display of a smartphone or tablet, enabled by Bluetooth® Smart technology, XRS™ Connect Location Services creates a whole new world of possibilities for UHF CB radio. Users are also able to send, receive and display a short text ‘status’ on the tail of transmissions, selecting from either pre-defined or user-defined statuses, up to 32 characters.
Offline Maps
XRS™ Connect Location Services offers offline map caching, giving users the option to download* and store detailed maps - ensuring accurate map display in areas with no cellular coverage. A welcome inclusion for off-road 4WD adventures, long distance touring and remote workers.
Points of Interest
XRS™ Connect Location Services enables users to log and save an unlimited number of points of interest using the intuitive user interface - perfect for asset mapping on large properties and revisiting those ‘secret’ spots in the 4WD.
Contacts & Groups
XRS™ Connect Location Services displays the user-designated ID or ‘tag’ of each XRS™ radio within transmission range, allowing easy identification and tracking of multiple users. Create custom groups to easily manage contacts and filter display results.
Firmware Upgrades
XRS™ Connect Location Services enables the firmware of the XRS™ radio to be upgraded using a smartphone or tablet*. Receive notification of new features and enhancements, updated regularly at no additional cost.
*Internet connection required. Data charges may apply

XRS™ Connect Active Mute- The evolution continues.
XRSTM Connect Active Mute is a brand-new feature available for the XRS™ Connect range of UHF CB Radios, allowing users to manually mute the radio when receiving a phone call to their mobile phone. The XRS™ Location Services App is able to detect incoming phone calls and automatically mute the XRS™ radio for the duration of the call, ensuring uninterrupted phone conversations.
Active Mute uses smart phone and Bluetooth technology to either mute or lower the XRS™ radio volume automatically when the user makes or receives a phone call. This allows the user to focus on their conversation rather than manually adjusting the volume on the XRS™ radio.
The Active Mute feature can be programmed via the XRS™ microphone or through the XRS™ Connect App. Numerous custom programmable features allow you to select exactly how you want the Active Mute feature to work. Combined with the XRS™ Connect Voice Playback feature, you’ll never miss a radio call, even when your XRS™ radio is muted.
This new feature is ideal for families and users who rely on both UHF CB and Mobile communication in their vehicles.
This exciting new feature is now available to download via firmware update through the XRS™ Connect and XRS™ Location Services smartphone applications.
