Conventional Talkgroup and Radio Scan
Enhancements
A few enhancements have been made to the
Conventional Talkgroup at the system. These
enhancements improve the Scan feature operation
significantly when multiple agencies are using a
single conventional radio frequency channel. These
enhancements allow users to use Selective Squelch
to operate on only the subset of talkgroups that are
relevant to the users rather than all talkgroups on the
channel. These Scan improvements have been made
to eliminate the audio holes that were present and to
turn on the busy LED when activity is present on the
channel. Mixed Vote Scan and Standard
Conventional Scan configurations are supported.
Priority Operation is also supported.
Up to 30 different talkgroups can be supported using
conventional channels. A maximum of four talkgroups
can be supported when Vote Scan channels are
being used.
Smart PTT is supported with this enhancement as
Smart PTT prevents users from transmitting while
other users are on the channel.
Note:
User Selectable Talkgroups are not
compatible with this Conventional Talkgroup
Enhancement.
What Your Dealer/System Administrator Can
Tell You
Check with your dealer or system administrator, if the
radio is to be operated in extremely cold
temperatures (less than -30 °C or more than +60 °C),
for the correct radio settings to ensure proper
operation.
You can consult your dealer or system administrator
about the following:
• Is your radio programmed with any preset
conventional channels?
• Which buttons have been programmed to access
other features?
• What optional accessories may suit your needs?
Note:
Specifications may vary for different radio
models. Check with your dealer or system
administrator for more information.
