Keypad Operation
The keypad operating method can be selected according to the user’s purpose.
Functions can be assigned to the keypad by using KPG-D1/ D1N. The following is the list of the functions that can be
assigned to the transceiver for Keypad Operation:
Table 3-4 Keypad Operation
Configuration Description
None
Pressing a key on the keypad of the transceiver causes the Key-entry Error Tone (1 beep) to sound,
but it has no effect on the transceiver.
Channel Entry
Pressing a key on the keypad can directly specify a channel. (Refer to Changing the Channel by
Specifying the Number (Channel Entry) .)
Group ID/Channel
Entry
In an NXDN Trunking system, pressing the [0] to [9] keys on the transceiver’s keypad can directly
specify the Group ID in the NXDN Trunking system. (Refer to Changing the Group ID by Specifying
the ID (Group ID Entry) (NXDN Trunking System Only) .)
In a system other than an NXDN Trunking system, pressing the [0] to [9] keys on the transceiver’s
keypad can directly specify the channel number. (Refer to Changing the Channel by Specifying the
Number (Channel Entry) .)
OST
Pressing a key on the keypad can directly select the OST from the OST List 1 to OST List 40. (Refer
to Analog FUNC Changing the Decode/ Encode Combination of the QT/ DQT (OST) .)
Autodial
In a P25 Trunking system, NXDN Trunking system, NXDN Conventional system, DMR Conventional
system, or Analog Conventional system, pressing the [0] to [9] keys on the keypad allows the
transceiver to enter Autodial Mode. In Autodial Mode, the transceiver can transmit by selecting a
DTMF code from Autodial List or directly entering a DTMF code.
However, the transceiver behavior on a control channel varies as below depending on the
configuration in Telephone Interconnect (List Only, Unlimited or Answer Only). (Refer to P25 FUNC
Configuring the Transmission and Reception Behaviors of a Telephone Call (Telephone
Interconnect) .)
Answer Only:
The transceiver cannot enter Autodial Mode on a control channel.
Unlimited:
If the transceiver enters Autodial Mode on a control channel, the transceiver can transmit by
selecting a DTMF code from the Autodial List when Autodial List is configured. If Autodial List
is not configured, the transceiver can transmit by directly entering a DTMF code.
List Only:
If the transceiver enters Autodial Mode on a control channel, the transceiver can transmit by
selecting a DTMF code from the Autodial List when Autodial List is configured. If Autodial List
is not configured, the transceiver cannot transmit a DTMF code.
If Store & Send is disabled and Autodial List is configured, transmission of a DTMF code on a
communication channel, regardless of the configuration in Telephone Interconnect , allows the
transceiver to transmit by selecting a DTMF code from Autodial List . If Store & Send is enabled,
the transceiver can transmit by directly entering a DTMF code.
Keypad Auto PTT Every time a key on the keypad is pressed, the DTMF code is instantly sent.
Short Message
Pressing the [0] to [9] keys on the keypad enters Short Message Mode. In Short Message Mode, a
Short Message can be sent by directly entering a Short Message.
Status
Pressing the [0] to [9] keys on the keypad enters Status Mode. In Status Mode, a status configured
in the Status List in a P25 Trunking system, an NXDN system, or a DMR Conventional system can
be selected. Also, in an NXDN system, a Status Message can be sent by directly entering a status
number.
Individual
Pressing the [0] to [9] keys on the keypad allows the transceiver to enter Individual Call Mode in a
P25 system, NXDN system, or DMR Conventional system. In Individual Call Mode, a call can be
initiated by selecting an Individual ID configured in the Individual ID List or directly entering an
Individual ID.
