Trunking System Controls
Using the Failsoft System
The failsoft System ensures continuous radio communications
during a trunked system failure. If a trunking system fails
completely, the radio stays at the failsoft operation and
continues to transmit on current channel. User can also change
to another channel although the transmission is in Failsoft
System.
Procedure:
1 During failsoft operation, your radio transmits and receives
in conventional operation on a predetermined frequency.
2 A medium-pitched tone sounds every 10 seconds and the
display shows Failsoft.
When the trunking system returns to normal operation, your
radio automatically leaves failsoft operation and returns to
trunked operation.
Going Out of Range
When your radio goes out of the range of the system, it can no
longer lock onto a control channel.
Procedure:
1 A low-pitched tone sounds.
AND/OR
The display shows the currently selected zone/channel
combination and Out of range.
2 Your radio remains in this out-of-range condition until:
It locks onto a control channel.
OR
It locks onto a failsoft channel.
OR
It is turned off.
