emergency cAllS
If your transceiver has been programmed with the Emergency function, you can
make emergency calls.
1 Press and hold the key programmed as Emergency.
Ask your dealer for the length of time necessary to hold this key before the
transceiver enters Emergency mode.
When the transceiver enters Emergency mode, it will change to the Emergency
channel and begin transmitting based on how it is set up by your dealer.
2 To exit Emergency mode, press the Emergency key again.
If the Emergency mode completes a preset number of cycles, Emergency mode will
automatically end and the transceiver will return to the zone and channel that was in
use before Emergency mode was entered.
Note:
Your dealer can set the transceiver to emit a tone when transmitting in Emergency mode.
Your dealer can set the transceiver to emit tones and received signals as normal, or mute the
speaker during Emergency operation.
SignAling
Quiet Talk (QT)/ Digital Quiet Talk (DQT)
Your dealer may have programmed QT or DQT signaling on your transceiver
channels. A QT tone/ DQT code is a sub-audible tone/code which allows you
to ignore (not hear) calls from other parties who are using the same channel.
Operator Selectable Tone (OST)
If a key has been programmed with
OST, you can reprogram the QT/DQT
settings on each of your channels.
1 Select your desired channel.
2 Press and hold the key programmed as OST for 1 second.
3 Press / to select your desired tone or code.
Your dealer can set up to 40 tones/codes.
4 Press to save your new setting.
5 When you have finished operating using OST, press the OST key again to
turn the OST function OFF.
Network Access Code (NAC)
Your dealer may have programmed a Network Access Code on your
transceiver channels. NAC is a feature of P25 transceivers that functions
similar to QT/DQT; squelch will open when the correct NAC is received.
