Out-of-Range Radio
When your radio goes out of the range of the system, it can
no longer lock onto a control channel.
You hear a low-pitched tone and/or the display shows the
currently selected zone/channel combination and Out of
range. Your radio remains in this out-of-range condition
until it locks onto a control channel or failsoft channel, or if
it is turned off.
SmartZone
The SmartZone
™
feature extends communications beyond
the reach of a single-trunked site (antenna location) when
operating in a SmartZone system. SmartZone units provide
expanded wide-area coverage.
SmartZone automatically switches the radio to a different
site when the current site signal becomes unacceptable.
This usually happens when the vehicle in which the radio is
located is driven out of the range of one site, and into the
range of another.
Under normal conditions, a SmartZone-enabled radio
functions invisibly to the operator. However, the operator
does have some manual controls on the Control Head–the
RSSI
menu entry. This button can be used to check, or
change, the SmartZone operation.
Site Trunking Feature
If the zone controller loses communication with any site,
that site reverts to site trunking. When this occurs, you can
communicate only with the radios within your trunking site.
The display shows the currently selected zone/channel
combination and Site trunking.
Locking and Unlocking a Site
This feature allows your radio to lock onto a specific site
and not roam among wide-area talkgroup sites. This
feature should be used with caution, since it inhibits
roaming to another site in a wide-area system.
You can toggle the lock state between locked and unlocked
by pressing the preprogrammed Site Lock/Unlock button.
Follow the procedure to lock and unlock a site using the
radio menu.
