About trunked zones and
workgroups
Trunked zones and workgroups are used to manage the
calls on the trunked system. Zones typically define
geographic areas (towns, suburbs or counties), or
branches of an organization. Workgroups span multiple
zones, and typically define functions, work areas or
job roles.
When your radio belongs to a workgroup, it is said to be
‘subscribed’, and you receive all calls directed to that
group of users. A group’s members are dynamic, in that
a group only contains radios that are currently
registered on the system and subscribed to the
same group.
Your radio may be programmed to use different
names for a ‘zone’ and ‘workgroup’. For example,
‘district’ or ‘area’ may be used in place of zone, and
‘role’ or ‘group’ may be used in place of workgroup.
Selecting a zone
1 Select Menu > Set zone.
(Depending on how your radio is programmed, you
may be able to use the scroll keys, left selection key
or channel selector to select a zone.)
2 In the Set Zone menu, scroll through the list of zones
until the zone you want appears.
3 Press Select.
4 Check that the network icon appears in the
display.
