FIELD DEFINITIONS:
Protocol Type
Use the UP/DOWN arrow keys to select the Trunking Protocol Type for this personality.
Type II - An enhanced version of the original protocol that provides additional fleet
management flexibility for a given system via an expanded signaling format.
Type IIi - A hybrid of Type I and II that permits a radio to operate as a type II unit on a type I system.
Access Type
This determines how the radio will access a Type II/IIi system. Either Tx Fast/Rx Slow or Tx Fast/Rx Fast.
Select Tx Fast/Rx Fast for use with fast access systems and Tx Fast/Rx Slow for slow access protocol
emergency subfleets. New type I radios operating on fast access systems should be set for fast access. Type IIi
radios which have to communicate on systems with slow radios should be set to slow access.
Emergency Call
Emergency Call gives the operator priority to enable the Emergency Call option.
The Emergency Call condition is entered by pressing a button configured to initiate emergency. All subsequent
PTT transmissions while in the CALL state will be made with high priority access to a voice channel. Emergency
Alarm and Emergency Call may both be enabled, in which case the Call state is entered when PTT is pressed.
Factory default is Disabled.
Emergency Alarm
Emergency Alarm allows the operator to press the Emergency button to send an alarm to the dispatcher.
Emergency Alarm is a coded transmission made on the control channel in response to pressing a button
configured to initiate an emergency. These alarm transmissions will be sent until the control channel
acknowledges the alarm, the console dispatcher acknowledges the alarm (if console ack is enabled), or the alarm
retry counter is exhausted.
If normal alarm operation is selected, the display will flash emergency and valid key chirp will be heard when the
alarm condition is entered. Four good beeps will be heard when the alarm condition has been acknowledged.
If silent alarm is selected, there will be no display or audible indication when the alarm condition is entered, nor
will there be any indication of alarm acknowledgement. Also, the radio will mute the receiver audio so that no
radio traffic is heard. Factory default is Disabled.
Console Acknowledgement Required
If a Console Acknowledge is Required then an Emergency Alarm is not considered successful unless a
Dispatcher Acknowledge is received. When an Emergency Alarm is not successful the full four beep
Acknowledge Tone is not sounded and the Alarm is automatically sent again until the number of retries specified
is exhausted. Factory default is Disabled.
Retry Counter
If an unlimited number of retries is desired then select Infinite, otherwise enter a value from 1 to 255.
Normally if the radio is unsuccessful in sending a transmission it will retry for one ISW sequence before quitting.
For Emergency Alarms, however, the radio will retry for the number of ISW sequences specified by the Retry
Counter. NOTE: Emergency alarm must be enabled for this field to be valid.
