SCAT™ OPERATION
A SCAT (Single Channel Autonomous Trunking) System operates with same
set of features as a standard EDACS system. The only significant user change
relates to the
BSY
indicator. Since only one channel, operating as both control
and working channel, exists in a SCAT System, the
BSY
indicator will be ON
when the SCAT channel is in the working channel mode. When the
transmission on the channel is completed, the indicator turns OFF and
indicates the return of SCAT control channel signaling.
