Conventional Mode Features
When an attempt is made to select a system or channel parameter in a password protected
zone, “PASSWORD” is flashed. The password is always eight digits long and is entered
using the same procedure as used for the power-up password described in Section 3.1.3.
After the password is entered, system and channel parameters for that zone can be
reprogrammed normally.
5.14.3 Zone Change Parameter
The “CHNGE ZONE” (Standard Control Head) or “Change Zone” (Lightning Control
Head) menu parameter selects the zone containing the conventional channel to be
reprogrammed. It does not change the zone selected for normal operation.
Press the Select switch to select the Change Zone parameter and then scroll through the
programmed zones by rotating that switch. When the desired zone is displayed, select it by
pressing the Select switch. A single beep sounds when the switch is pressed (if that option
is enabled).
5.14.4 Channel Change Parameter
The “CHNGE CHAN” (Standard Control Head) or “Change Channel” (Lightning Control
Head) menu parameter selects the conventional channel to be reprogrammed. Disabled or
P25 Trunking/SMARTNET/SmartZone channels cannot be selected. This does not change
the channel selected for normal operation.
Press the Select switch to display Change Channel and then scroll through the
programmed channels by rotating that switch. When the desired channel is displayed,
select it by pressing the Select switch. A single beep sounds when the switch is pressed (if
that option is enabled).
5.14.5 System Parameters
The “SYS PARMS” (Standard Control Head) or “System Parms” (Lightning Control
Head) menu parameter selects the conventional mode timer to be reprogrammed.
Press the Select switch to select System Parms and then rotate that switch to display the
desired parameter. Then press the Select switch again to select it. A single beep sounds
when the switch is pressed (if that option is enabled). The following timers can be
programmed.
Note
If “PASSWORD” is briefly displayed when attempting to select a parameter, see
Section 5.14.2.
