Send Call Tone........................................................ (PC or FP)
The Factory Default setting has the Call Tone feature ON (refer
to “H
OW TO FIELD PROGRAM SINGLE-DIGIT RADIO FEATURE CODES”
on page 14). The callbox can be programmed to transmit a Call
Tone if the Reset Time has expired and the ON/PTT button is
pressed. This will alert system users that the call is originating
from the callbox.
Ring Tone.......................................................................... (PC)
This will sound an alert tone on the callbox speaker, similar to a
telephone ring tone, whenever the correct 2-tone code has
been successfully decoded. This feature is used to alert the
Callbox user that the gate is being opened or closed. Ring
Tone is enabled from the factory.
GateGuard
®
– Toggle .............................................(PC or FP)
Will alternately open and close the Switch Output when it
receives a unique 2-Tone code. After the 2-tone decode
(receive) code is received the callbox will transmit a single beep
if the switch has been opened and a double beep if the switch
has been closed. The switch will open when the callbox turns
off if it is programmed for Automatic Turn-Off.
GateGuard
®
On Code / Off Code ..................................... (PC)
This operation allows programming of separate ON and OFF 2-
tone decode (receive) codes. The OUTPOST
®
will CLOSE the
Switch Output upon receiving the ON code, and OPEN the
Switch Output upon receiving the OFF code.
When reading out the radio programming as described in the
“H
OW TO READOUT CURRENT RADIO FREQUENCY & TONE CODES”
section, the ON code will be displayed.
Sensor/Contact Closure Input
The Sensor Input will detect a logic level and transmit an Alert
tone when a change in logic level is detected. Separate alert
tones are used for OPEN (logic level high) tone and CLOSED
(logic level low) tone.
Busy Channel TX Inhibit ........................................ (PC or FP)
This will not allow you to transmit when another user is already
transmitting on your radio frequency, even if they are using a
different tone code. The radio will beep a series of long, low
tones (like a busy signal) while the ON/PTT button is held
down.
