If there is no channel with matching Talkgroup ID and trunk system ID, the radio display shows the
channel alias of <DYNAMIC talkgroup>.
Once the radio is connected, you hear a dynamic regroup tone, the radio display shows <DYNAMIC
channel> with the temporary green color intelligent backlight and you hear a Voice Announcement.
NOTICE:
When the radio loses the GPS signal, the GPS icon blinks and the radio sounds two high-
pitched tones repetitively to indicate that the GPS has failed to operate. The radio display
shows the red intelligent light.
If the first matched channel is not configured with Voice Announcement, no Voice
Announcement is played.
Procedure:
The other operations are the same as normal dynamic regroup command.
When the radio exits the Geofence area, your radio reverts to original channel or newly assigned
talkgroup. The radio display shows the new channel together with Voice Announcement to indicate the
changes. Voice Announcement of the new channel only works if that channel is configured with Voice
Announcement.
6.12.2
Mission Critical Geofence
This feature allows the radio to use the GPS receiver to determine radio location at frequent intervals
and evaluate if the radio is within the Geofence area in real time
Check with your dealer or qualified technician to program the geofence coordinates and actions.
6.12.3
Entering Mission Critical Geofence
When and where to use:
When the radio enters the predefined Geofence area, the radio displays <Geofence Alias> with the
intelligent backlight and you hear a Voice Announcement. Zone and channel alias of the Geofence
area is displayed. If the radio is set to manual, you can choose either to proceed with zone and
channel change or cancel the change.
The radio then connects to the designated talkgroup. The radio displays the talkgroup alias and
dynamic regroup tone sounds. The transmit power level changes and the radio shows a direct text
message content without any user operation.
NOTICE:
The availability of the Voice Announcement (VA), TMS display, Intelligent Backlight, and
Transmit Power Level alerts depend on your radio configuration. The VA can be programmed to
alert continuously or momentarily.
If Site Selectable Alert (SSA) is enabled, the radio mutes any alert that is received when
entering the Geofence area and unmutes when exiting.
6.12.4
Exiting Mission Critical Geofence
When and where to use:
When the radio exits the Geofence area, the radio reverts to the original transmit power level,
intelligent lighting, channel, or newly assigned talkgroup. Voice announcement is canceled or you hear
