Note:
When in Gateway Mode, with the exception of
Emergency operation
(described on page 14)
and
Smart Calls
(described on page 49)
, no calls
(voice or data) can be made or received on the radio being used as a
gateway. The radio is acting only as a relay between Direct Mode and
Trunked Mode.
Note:
If you activate the Emergency Button on a Standard Console or
Handset Based Console that is operating in Gateway Mode, any calls that
are currently active through the gateway cease. The radio reverts to
Trunked Mode operation and initiates an Alarm Call to the attached
Trunked Mode talkgroup. When the Alarm Call ends the radio remains in
Trunked Mode.
Note:
If you are going to leave a gateway 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 Trunked
Mode talkgroup and 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 gateway
configuration even if it turns on unexpectedly after circumstances such as
power failures.
Switching to Gateway Mode
Tip:
When you switch to Gateway Mode, your radio connects your
currently (or last selected) selected DMO and TMO talkgroups. If your
radio has been reprogrammed, you may need to switch to DMO Mode
(see
Operating Modes
on page 67
) and select a DMO talkgroup before
Gateway Mode can be enabled.
To switch to Gateway Mode
Press a customised soft key.
Alternatively follow the following steps:
1. Select
Menu Options > Networks
then in Network options select
Operating Mode
.
2. In the Operating Mode options select
Gateway Mode
.
