Settings
RSSI
Condition
Fringe
Areas
Select “Enable” or “Disable”. The “RSSI
Enable” field must be set to “Enable” for this
function to work. If this field is set to “Enable”
the radio works like this: if the radio initiates a
search and no systems are found that meet the
signal strength indicated in the Preferred field
(after going through the neighbor list, near and
far lists and seed lists) the radio will “switch
off” RSSI searching. It will then attempt to
register to the first site (or strongest site if the
On Strongest Site field is set to “Enable”) it
sees using low speed data only. Once it
acquires a site in that mode, it will switch RSSI
searching back on (for the next time the radio
goes into search). If set to Disable, the radio
will always use RSSI criteria when searching.
Enable
(Blank)
Consult your
system
operator,
though
generally this
should be
disabled.
Enabling this
may cause
unexpectedly
poor
transmission
quality in
certain
situations.
ASID
Black List
1 through 4
Enter from 0 to 255. Setting this prevents the
radio from attempting to register to the site
with the ASID listed here. 0 disables.
0
Consult your
system
operator
though
generally not
needed.
TOT
Set to “OFF” (manually type the word in) or
enter from 0 to 255 seconds. Setting this
prevents the radio from transmitting for a
period longer than this timer.
OFF
Set as
needed.
Talk
Around
Select to “None” or any of the Conventional or
LTR systems that appear in this list. This is the
system reverted to if the
Talk Around
key has
been pressed. If “None” is selected here and the
Talk Around
key is pressed, be careful. No
useful “Talk Around” function will be enabled
and the radio may behave unexpectedly.
None
(Blank)
Consult your
system
operator.
ATB Ring
Back
Select “Enable” or “Disable”. If a user attempts
to transmit and the system is busy, enabling
this will sound a ringing tone when the system
is ready to accept traffic again.
Enable
(Blank)
Set as
needed.
Scan
Block
Mode
Select “Enable” or “Disable”. When enabled,
this will cause the radio to receive all groups in
a range between the talk groups listed in the
PassPort
Talk Group Setting
programming sub-
screen (see page 27) under CH 2 and CH 3.
Note: Ensure that the group listed under CH 2
is numerically lower than the group in CH 3 or
this field will be marked with a
and will not
work. These groups will be scanned no matter
the setting of the Scan Member field in the
PassPort
Talk Group Setting
programming sub-
screen. Note: Block Mode scan will only work
when the radio is registered to its home site. If
you do not intend to use Block Mode Scan do
not assign a
Scan Type
key.
Disable
(Blank)
Set as
needed. Not
generally
used in
