Fallback Mode
If a base station is customised to operate in fallback mode, when network
communication is lost any radios using the base station will continue to
operate, but with a reduced service. This is known as Fallback Mode. The base
station broadcasts the loss of communication to all radios which are using it.
In Fallback Mode your radio can only communicate with other radios that are
registered on the same site: no inter-site communication is available.
When your radio enters Fallback Mode:
the radio status bar indicates Fallback Mode and the yellow warning
triangle is displayed momentarily
the Fallback Mode text box pops up in the centre of the screen for a few
seconds showing a customisable text message
the RSSI antenna icon flashes continuously
the tri-colour LED flashes amber intermittently (indicating limited service
mode)
the radio generates a warning tone
