General Dynamics R2670 Series - 6-6.5 Radio Initiated Dispatch Trunk II Testing Testing the Auto Affiliation Feature

Parameter selection is similar to Radio Initiated
Dispatch Trunk I described in paragraph 6-6.1, with
the addition of the following parameter:
Auto Aff
The Auto Aff: selection on the analyzer con-
figures the analyzer to respond to the
SMARTZONE registration sequence. The Auto
Aff: selection is only available when Trunk II
signaling has been selected. The operator has the
option of disabling the auto affiliation sequence,
or selecting the SMARTZONE affiliation
sequence. If the radio is not capable of
SMARTZONE auto affiliation, the selection
should be set to DISABLED. If auto affiliation is
disabled, the analyzer transmits idle data on the
control channel until the radio initiates the test
sequence.
6-6.5 Radio Initiated Dispatch Trunk II
Testing Testing the Auto Affiliation
Feature
After setting up the test conditions, with the radio
turned "off", press the start test softkey to activate
control channel signaling. Turn the radio "on" when
the prompt message appears so it can lock to the
control channel and register. Successful registration
will be indicated by seeing the squelch indicator
LED flash briefly followed by the presence of
decoded radio ID parameters. The call type M1
should be displayed to indicate that an auto
affiliation sequence has been received. At this time,
the radio may be keyed to proceed with the radio
initiated calling sequence. The radio will remain
registered as long as it remains powered up and
there have been no changes in basic test
configuration. Stopping and re-starting the test
requires re-registration as long as SMARTZONE is
selected at the "Auto Aff:" field on the screen.
NOTE
If changes to the test setup entries are made
after a test has been started, even though
theses changes appear on the screen, they will
not be entered as part of the test until the test
is ended and restarted. Similarly, if invalid
entries are made for frequency or other
parameters, they may be accepted until a final
validity check is done by the system at the time
the "start test" softkey is pressed.
