one else is transmitting. The valid range of values is 0 (zero) to 14
seconds. A value of Infinite is also available.
Impolite Retries Use the UP/DOWN arrow keys to choose a value or enter the desired
value directly. This is the number of times that the radio will attempt
to transmit an emergency message even if someone else is
transmitting. An impolite attempt is one that is transmitted regardless
of whether or not someone else is transmitting. The valid range of
values is 1 to 15 seconds.
Emer Prio(rity) Tx Inhibit Use the UP/DOWN arrow keys to enable/disable this feature. If this
feature is enabled, all other radios on the system will decode the
Emergency Acknowledgment or the Emergency PTT code word. The
radios will also inhibit their transmitters for the time required for the
acknowledgment or until the receive carrier goes away.
The user's call request has priority over all other types of call traffic.
The radio will transmit voice and an Emergency Code Word if:
❒ the user presses the PTT button; or
❒ the dispatcher’s alarm acknowledge has a command to remotely
key up.
Emergency Limited Patience
Time (sec)
This field will be visible only if the Emer Prio(rity) Tx Inhibit field is set to
Enabled. Use the UP/DOWN arrow keys to choose a value or enter the
desired value directly. When the radio is in Emergency Call Mode, the
radio will wait for the time period specified here before impolitely
transmitting voice (if voice transmission is inhibited by the
Emergency Priority Inhibit feature). The valid range of values is 0
(zero) to 255 seconds.
Global Tx Multiplier Use the UP/DOWN arrow keys to enable/disable this feature. Enabling
this feature will cause the default Tx Multiplier field value to double.
This doubles the time that the transmitter will key (without receiving
an Ack during Emergency Call) after the radio exhausts all retries. If
this feature is disabled, no doubling of the Tx Multiplier field value will
occur.
Tx Multiplier Use the UP/DOWN arrow keys to choose a value or enter the desired
value directly. This value indicates the time that the transmitter will
key (without receiving an Acknowledgment during Emergency Call)
after the radio exhausts all retries. This value is multiplied by the
radio's base time. The valid range of values is 0 (zero) to 3.
RAC Pretime (ms) Use the UP/DOWN arrow keys to choose a value or enter the desired
value directly. This is the amount of time the radio waits before it
transmits the first MDC RAC packet. Valid entries are 0 (zero) to 6350
ms, in 50-ms increments.
RAC Ack Alert Tone Use the UP/DOWN arrow keys to enable/disable this feature. If this
feature is enabled, the Repeater will indicate acceptance of the RAC
packet by sounding four beeps.
RAC Preambles This field is not accessible.
