❒ All LEDs turned off.
This command is useful in preventing unauthorized use when the
radio is stolen or lost. The radio can be uninhibited by sending a Radio
Enable command or by reading and writing the codeplug with the RSS.
Radio Check Use the UP/DOWN arrow keys to enable/disable this feature. If this
feature is enabled, the dispatcher can check the state of the radio
(turned on or off) when it is within the range of the system (in Clear
mode).
Priority 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, and
will inhibit their transmitters for the time in 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.
Limited Patience Time (sec) Use the UP/DOWN arrow keys to make your selection or enter a value
directly. When the radio is in an Emergency call mode, this is the
amount of time the radio will wait before impolitely sending voice, if
voice transmission is inhibited by the Emergency Priority Inhibit
feature. The valid range is 0 to 255 seconds.
Polite Retries Use the UP/DOWN arrow keys to make your selection or enter a value
directly. This is the number of times that the radio will attempt to
transmit an ASTRO Emergency message while no one else is
transmitting. A polite attempt is one that is transmitted only when no
one else is transmitting. The valid range is 0 (zero) to 14 seconds. A
value of Infinite is also available.
Impolite Retries Use the UP/DOWN arrow keys to make your selection or enter a value
directly. This is the number of times that the radio will attempt to
transmit an emergency message even if someone else is transmitting
at the same time. An impolite attempt is one that is transmitted when
someone else is transmitting. The valid range of values is 1 to 15.
Global Tx Multiplier Use the UP/DOWN arrow keys to enable/disable this feature. If this
feature is enabled, the ASTRO Default Tx Multiplier value is doubled.
This effectively doubles the time period that the transmitter will key
after the radio exhausts all retries without receiving an
Acknowledgment during Emergency Call. If this feature is disabled,
there will be no change in the time period that the transmitter will key
up after the radio exhausts all retries.
Tx Multiplier Use the UP/DOWN arrow keys to make your selection or enter a value
directly. This value indicates how long the transmitter will key after
the radio exhausts all retries without receiving an Acknowledgment
during Emergency Call. This value is multiplied by the radio's base
time. The valid range is 0 (zero) to 3.
Silent Override w/ Mon This feature is visible for Portables only. Use the UP/DOWN arrow keys to
