ASTRO XTL 5000 Digital Mobile Radio with O5 Control Head 69
Trunking Operation
Locking onto a Site
In areas that commonly have weak signals, use the SmartZone lock 
function to prevent the radio from automatically scanning for a new 
site.
Site Trunking
In a SmartZone system, if the zone controller for a particular site fails, 
the site enters into a site-trunking operational mode. In this mode of 
operation, the user can only communicate with other units at the 
same site.
Radios in a SmartZone system can be programmed by a qualified 
radio technician to display SITE TRUNKING when site trunking 
becomes active. The display alternates with the current mode display 
as long as the radio remains in site trunking. The radio also sounds a 
valid-key chirp when it first detects site trunking.
1 Press the SITE softkey momentarily to display the current lock 
status.
Either the display shows SITE LOCKED or SITE UNLOCKED. 
Press the HOME button or SITE softkey again to return to 
normal operation.
2 To change the locked or unlocked condition, press and hold the 
SITE softkey until a tone sounds and the display changes.
After temporarily displaying the new condition, the radio returns 
to normal operation.
