Optional TransAdapt/Transcall Menu
The TransAdapt/Transcall menu is available if the 1099TA/TC option is
installed in your radio. This option allows you to program settings for selective
calling and automatic selective calling using the scan function. Settings include
a call code to identify your radio, the bit error rate and the type of call to make.
Activating
this Option
If your radio is equipped with the ALE option, only one of these options can be
activated at a time. If one option is already activated, activating the other
option automatically deactivates the first.
1. Toggle the DIGIT knob until the OPT icon flashes. Toggle the TUNE knob to
access the option menu. The first selection in the menu is T/A SEL.
2. Press the
WHIP TUNE button. T/A XXX is displayed where XXX is either ON
or
OFF.
3. Toggle the TUNE knob to display ON and press the WHIP TUNE button to
save it. The 1099TA/TC option is now activated for use.
When the option is activated, the radio automatically responds to received
calls. Turn the Channel knob to 9 and the radio automatically goes into a fast
channel scan. In channel scan, the radio selects each channel in the scan group
in succession, listening for a call from a transmitting station containing that
receiver’s call code (or 000 for Allcall). If a call does not contain the correct
code (or is 000 for All Call), the radio continues scanning, prepared to receive
a call.
The radio can scan up to 30 different groups of channels. For information on
entering or modifying scan groups refer to "Standard Scan Menu" on page 4-8.
