Trunking Features
Site Trunking
STE TRNK
is alternately displayed (if so programmed) with the
selected mode whenever the radio’s usable site is not communicating
with the SmartZone controller. You can only communicate with other
radios operating at the same site when
STE TRNK
is displayed. No
wide-area calls can be made from a site-trunking site.
Failsoft
If a trunking system experiences a complete failure, the radio will
revert to failsoft operation and automatically switch to its failsoft
channel. During failsoft, trunking repeaters will transmit a medium-
pitched tone every 10 seconds. The radio periodically leaves failsoft
to search for a trunking site. The radio returns to failsoft if no trunking
sites are found.
If you press the PTT button while the radio is searching for a trunking
site, the radio returns to failsoft and transmits. In failsoft, you can only
communicate with other radios on the same mode and site. No wide-
area call can be made from a failsoft mode. When the trunking
system returns to normal operation, your radio will automatically
leave the failsoft operation and return to trunked operation.
Since the normal trunking features do not operate during failsoft,
much of the privacy of trunked systems is lost. You must share the
channel with other users until the failure is corrected.
To continue, in Failsoft, to communicate with other talkgroups:
1 Rotate the Mode knob switch to change to a different repeater
frequency.
The failsoft condition is indicated by a faint beeping tone every
nine seconds (radio unsquelched).
When the trunking system returns to normal operation, the
beeping tone stops.
2 Press the PTT button to talk, and release the button to listen.
