Conventional Mode Features
5.13.5 Automatic (EFJohnson Conventional) Registration
When used in an EFJohnson P25 conventional infrastructure radio system, an option on
the radio can be programmed to provide additional identifying information to the system
upon receipt of a dynamic data registration request. If the “EFJ Affiliation” option is
enabled, the radio will transmit its current talkgroup to the system in addition to its unit ID
during a dynamic data registration request. EF Johnson Technologies also supports
conventional standardized IP data context activation registration without the EFJ
affiliation checked.
The radio will attempt a data registration on channel change. If the radio does not receive a
registration response after the programmed number of retries it will display “Reg Failed”.
If the radio is out of range and then returns to within range of a site where it had not yet
registered, it will initiate another registration.
Note This Automatic registration applies only to EFJohnson P25 conventional infrastructure
systems.
5.13.6 P25 Group Calls
P25 group calls are placed by simply selecting the channel programmed for the desired
group, monitoring the channel if required, and transmitting.
When a P25 group call is received, the alias (or frequency) of the selected channel is
displayed. The radio can be programmed so that the following are also displayed for 0.5-
7.0 seconds or continuously during the call.
P25 PTT ID- The unit ID of the radio placing the call is displayed.
P25 Talkgroup - The alias of the talkgroup on which the call is being received is
displayed.
User Group ID - If the group ID of the call being received is included in a pre
programmed User Group ID list, the alias programmed in that list for that group is
displayed.
Received Key ID- The Key ID (or the alias, if programmed) of the key used to decode
the call is displayed.
P25 TG on Tx - The radio displays the number or alias of the talkgroup on which the
call is being transmitted.
