Dynamic Regrouping
Dynamic Regrouping is a feature which allows the
System Manager to dynamically program new groups
into selected radios. Upon development of the re-
grouping plan, the site controller sends each radio the
regroup plan number, knob setting(s), and acti-
vate/deactivate commands.
When the radio is regrouped, it will alert the user
and the display will indicate "REGRP nn" (nn = 01 -
08 depending upon the CONTROL KNOB setting).
If the regroup plan has deselect capability active
on the selected system, press the MONITOR BUT-
TON to toggle between the group and regroup modes.
