Repeater with call participation
If your radio is configured to operate in Repeater Mode with Call
Participation you can take part in the calls which are being relayed through it
if the call participants are on the same DMO talkgroup as you. To stop
participating in a call, press the
Clear
context key; you radio continues to act
as a Repeater.
Note:
You cannot switch to Repeater Mode if the radio is in
or if the radio has initiated an alarm call (see
) which has not been cleared.
Caution:
If you select Transmit Inhibit Mode while your radio is
operating in Repeater Mode, the radio leaves Repeater Mode and it stops
functioning as a Repeater.
Note:
If you are going to leave a repeater unattended for long periods of
time, or as a permanent installation in a remote location, we recommend
that you configure it as required (select and attach the required Direct
Mode talkgroup) and then power the radio off. This will save the
configuration; each time the radio is powered on again, it will re-start with
the saved configuration. This will ensure that the radio is always running
with the correct repeater configuration even if it turns on unexpectedly
after circumstances such as power failures.
Switching to Repeater Mode
To switch to Repeater Mode see
Note:
Before you can use the radio as a repeater you must select a Direct
Mode talkgroup.
Changing talkgroups in Repeater Mode
You can change talkgroups while your radio is operating in Repeater Mode in
the usual way (see
.)
Caution:
If you change to a different DMO talkgroup it may (depending
on the customisation) terminate any calls active through the repeater.
