Monitor Codes
When the MSAT ‐ G2 is idle in PTT mode, it can be programmed to selectively scan the unit’s
programmed talkgoups. If the unit is actively engaged on a talkgroup, scanning is disengaged and will
not interrupt that talkgroup. The radio must be at “rest” for scanning to occur. A scanning code
(LightSquared calls it a “monitor code”) will pull the radio off the talkgroup to which it is tuned for as
long as the scanned talkgroup remains up and on the air. Once the talkgroup drops off, the radio reverts
to the talkgroup on which it was sitting (tuned), and scanning resumes. These scanning codes cannot be
user programmed. They must be downloaded to the radio from the satellite network. All talkgoups are
downloaded with a monitor code; this code determines whether a talkgoup’s radio traffic will be picked
up by the MSAT ‐ G2’s scan function.
•
Monitor Code “0” (LOW): LightSquared downloads all talkgroups with Monitor Code “0”
unless otherwise requested. Any talkgroup with Monitor Code ”0” assigned to it will only
hear that talkgroup when the radio is tuned to that talkgroup.
•
Monitor Code “1” (MEDIUM) and Monitor Code “3” (HIGH): Both of these Monitor Code
levels will prompt the radio to constantly scan while at rest for any talkgroups with these
Monitor Codes assigned to them. Whichever scanned talkgroup comes up on the air first
will engage the radio, disable any further scanning, and keep the radio engaged on that
talkgroup until the talkgroup drops off the network, at which time scanning will continue.
The difference between Monitor Codes “1” and “3” is that scanning of any talkgroup with
Monitor Code “1” can be disabled at the handset; scanning for any talkgroup with Monitor
Code “3” cannot be disabled.
