All Active Mode
The All Active mode enables all connected control heads
attached to the radio to operate concurrently with each other.
When you activate a feature on one control head, the rest of the
control heads will have the same activated features and
indicators on their respective display.
Note: The multiple control head feature allows only control
heads of the same type to be connected. Upon power
up, if a control head of a different type is connected to
the radio, the radio reports the FATAL error CH
MISMATCH on the display of all attached control
heads.
Intercom Feature in All Active Mode
The intercom feature allows one control head user to talk to
another control head user in a Multiple Control Head
configuration. At any given time, when a control head being
operated has priority for the intercom call, all other control
heads are blocked until the active control head releases PTT
button.
This can be made on any attached control head. This feature
only applies to control heads in the All Active mode.
Procedure:
1 Press the Menu Select button directly below INTC to
activate the intercom feature of any of the control heads.
2 Press the PTT button to initiate an intercom transmission.
All control heads that are attached will receive the same
intercom call.
3 The display of the control heads receiving the intercom call
shows the alias/ID number of the transmitting control head.
4 Press the Menu Select button directly below EXIT to
deactivate the intercom feature.
OR
Press H to deactivate the intercom feature.
The intercom feature also deactivates when user initiates a
mode change. If the radio is on an emergency channel,
pressing of the
EMERGENCY
button or the emergency
footswitch button on any control head also deactivates the
intercom feature.
One Active Mode
The One Active mode enables only one control head to be
visibly active at a time in a two control head system.
Note: In the One Active mode, if more than two control heads
are present upon power up, the radio shows a FATAL
error EXTRA CH on the display of all attached control
heads.
The active control head commands the system normally while
the inactive control head is in remote mode with its display
shows REMOTE.
