Note : On 2 channel radios, it is not recommended that any of these features be turned on because there is no Select button to access them. .P SCAN HANG TIME 4237 The Scan Hang Time determines how long the radio will remain on the channel after receiving the end of a transmission. During this time, the radio will still perform priority samples as required. The scan hang time should be as short as necessary to maintain message continuity. The default value is 2.5 seconds. The hang time can range from 0.0-4.1 seconds. .P OPTION CONNECTOR 4290 .P FUNCTION DESCRIPTION 4291 !! WARNING !! Mismatching the Data Direction with the accessory may result in damage to the radio or accessory or both. Therefore, use caution when selecting functions for non standard accessories. The direction is determined by the selected function and is not programmable. ALWAYS program the radio BEFORE connecting a new option. Also verify that the new option does not exceed the limits of the radio's drive circuitry. In general, the limits look like this: outputs: open collector, 200 mA amximum drive with a saturation voltage of 0.3 V max. inputs: 0 to 16 Volts, signals below 1.0 V logic low, signals above 3.0 V are logic high. .P Each programmable pin has a limited number of functions that can be assigned to it. Some internal and external accessories need certain functions in order to operate properly. These functions are called 'dependent' functions. Dependent functions will NOT changed and will get skipped. Remaining functions are 'independent' of specific accessories and are called 'independent' functions. "General I/O" with no internal accessory allows the most programmable 'independent' functions. WARNING: Do not use the SAME 'independent' function more than once on this screen. The radio will not respond as expected to two or more of the same 'independent' functions. .P The following is a list of the available independent functions: function: Null pin(s): 4,6,8,9,12,14 purpose: The correct definition for any pin which is not being used. function: External Alarm pin(s): 4 purpose: An output which can drive a normally open relay. The relay connects to the vehicle horn/lights. Driven by an open collector transistor which saturates to A+, with the capability to source 200 mA. .P function: Tx PL Inhibit pin(s): 6,8,9,12,14 purpose: An input which can inhibit the generation of PL while the radio is transmitting. A typical application would be 'stripping PL' when sending a page from an attached paging terminal. Normally this line should be toggled prior to asserting PTT, since the radio will need to dekey and rekey if the line is toggled while transmitting. function: TOC Disable pin(s): 6,8,9,12,14 purpose: This input to the radio will disable the generation of PL reverse burst and DPL turn off code when a transmission ends. This can be useful for some base station and phone patch setups. .P function: Tx Audio Mute pin(s): 6,8,9,12,14 purpose: This input to the radio mutes the MIC AUDIO input, allowing an external option to drive the FLAT TX AUDIO INPUT. This is for connections to paging encoders, data terminals, etc. To ensure that the transmit deviation never exceeds the legal limits, the device connected should not gate audio to FLAT TX AUDIO INPUT unless Tx Audio Mute is asserted FIRST. function: PL/DPL & CSQ Detect pin(s): 4,8,12,14 purpose: This output from the radio indicates that a carrier with correct PL is present. .P function: CSQ Detect pin(s): 4,8,12,14 purpose: This output from the radio indicates that there is a carrier on the channel. function: Emergency Switch pin(s): 6,8,9,12,14 purpose: This input to the radio is used in conjunction with signalling to send and receive emergency alarms. It defaults to the correct active level for a normally closed switch connected to ground. It is recommended that this function be removed when the Emergency Alarm field on the RADIO WIDE screen is set to 'NONE'. .P The following is a list of independent functions that are ONLY available on radios with V21.00 or later software: function: Rx Audo Mute pin(s): 6,8,9,12,14 purpose: This input to the radio mutes receive audio for data applications. function: Special Off Hook pin(s): 6,8,9,12,14 purpose: This input to the radio readies the audio amplifier to accept externally generated sidetones. function: Channel Steer 1-3 pin(s): 6,8,9,12,14 purpose: This input to the radio works as a BCD channel selector input. .P DEBOUNCE 4292 Debounce determines whether the radio waits a short period of time before acting. This is done to make sure that any mechanical switch bounce is accounted for. It is only active on INPUTS. Debouncing is usually required for pins that are driven by relays or other mechanical devices. Functions that have Debounce as "NO" should not use relays or mechanical devices to drive them. Use the Up/Down arrow keys to enable "Yes" or disable "No". .P ACTIVE LEVEL 4293 Active Level determines whether the pins will become active on either a high voltage or a low voltage. Some non standard accessories may not have the same active level as the default active level. Use the Up/Down arrow keys to enable "High" or disable "Low". .P POWER UP DELAY 4294 The radio ignores the active levels on the programmable pins during power up. This is done to give the accessory device time to initialize itself. The time that the radio delays is the Power Up Delay. The default time for this delay is 0.2 seconds. If this delay needs to be changed, use the Up/Down arrow keys. This value can range from 0.0 seconds to 4.3 seconds. .P CHANGE/VIEW MODE CONFIGURATION 4500 MODE Configuration is used to CHANGE/VIEW channel specific information such as frequencies, squelch type, squelch codes, and scan lists. Warning: CHANGE/VIEW does NOT actually modify the radio codeplug data, but instead it modifies a copy of the data retrieved from the codeplug (or archive file) via the GET/SAVE functions. After all CHANGE/VIEW modifications are completed, you MUST return to the GET/SAVE menu and PROGRAM the changes back into the radio or SAVE them to a new archive file. Otherwise the modifications will be lost when you turn off your computer. .P NAME 4501 NAME is the number displayed on the two digit seven segment display. The NAME data field allows the number displayed to be different than the mode number. This, for example, allows the channels to be displayed in an unusual order such as 1,2,4,5. Any sequence desired can be chosen. A few  words of caution should be given: a. Earlier radio software versions do NOT support this feature! b. The name will have no effect on 2 channel radios. .P c. Choose names which are not easily confused with the numbers displayed by the call list entries. d. On low band radios there may be difficulties viewing the noise blanker status. e. When programming a user scan list, channel names greater than 19 tend to be hard to recognize. Valid numbers are between 01 and 99. .P RECEIVE FREQUENCY 4503 Enter the RECEIVE frequency directly in MHz. Blank RECEIVE frequencies are NOT allowed. Refer to the MOTOROLA Catalog Sheets / Price Pages or your Service Manual for valid RECEIVE frequencies for this model. .P TRANSMIT FREQUENCY 4504 Enter the TRANSMIT frequency directly in MHz. For a "Receive-Only" channel, enter a B. The TRANSMIT frequency will be displayed as BLANK. Refer to the MOTOROLA Catalog Sheets / Price Pages or your Service Manual for valid TRANSMIT frequencies for this model. .P SQUELCH TYPE 4507 Use the UP/DOWN arrow keys to select the SQUELCH type: CSQ - Carrier Squelch TPL - Private Line DPL - Digital Private Line. INV.DPL - Inverse DPL Data fields for transmit and receive codes will be displayed for PL and DPL. .P PL SQUELCH CODE 4508 Enter the PL frequency directly in Hz (Ex: 192.8), or enter the alphanumeric code (Ex: 7A).  Enter a B for Carrier Squelch operation. Valid codes may also be selected via the UP/DOWN arrow keys. Standard PL frequencies are listed on the next page: .P PL SQUELCH CODE (cont) Standard Private Line Frequencies / MOTOROLA Code: Freq Code Freq Code Freq Code Freq Code Freq Code 67.0 XZ 91.5 ZZ 123.0 3Z 167.9 6Z 225.7 M4 69.3 WZ 94.8 ZA 127.3 3A 173.8 6A 229.1 9Z 71.9 XA 97.4 ZB 131.8 3B 179.9 6B 233.6 M5 74.4 WA 100.0 1Z 136.5 4Z 186.2 7Z 241.8 M6 77.0 XB 103.5 1A 141.3 4A 192.8 7A 250.3 M7 79.7 WB 107.2 1B 146.2 4B 203.5 M1 82.5 YZ 110.9 2Z 151.4 5Z 206.5 8Z 85.4 YA 114.8 2A 156.7 5A 210.7 M2 88.5 YB 118.8 2B 162.2 5B 218.1 M3 .P DPL SQUELCH CODE 4509 Enter the DPL code directly (Ex: 031); note that leading zeros are required. Enter a B for Carrier Squelch operation. Valid codes may also be selected via the UP/DOWN arrow keys. Valid DPL codes are listed on the next page: .P DPL SQUELCH CODE (cont) Valid DPL Codes: Code Code Code Code Code Code Code Code Code 023 071 134 223 306 411 503 631 732 025 072 143 226 311 412 506 632 734 026 073 152 243 315 413 516 645 743 031 074 155 244 331 423 532 654 754 032 114 156 245 343 431 546 662 043 115 162 251 346 432 565 664 047 116 165 261 351 445 606 703 051 125 172 263 364 464 612 712 054 131 174 265 365 465 624 723 065 132 205 271 371 466 627 731 .P RX SIGNALLING SYSTEM 4510 Enter the number of the Signalling System that is desired for the receiver of this mode. Signalling Systems are set-up under the Signalling System Configuration Screen.  If there is no Signalling System for this mode enter "00". .P TX SIGNALLING SYSTEM 4511 Enter the number of the Signalling System that is desired for the transmitter of this mode. Signalling Systems are set-up under the Signalling System Configuration Screen. If there is no Signalling System for this mode enter "00". .P BUSY CHANNEL LOCKOUT 4512 Busy Channel Lockout may be enabled by choosing "Y". When enabled, the radio will be 'polite' to other users on the channel. In other words, the radio will not let you hear conversations of other users and will not allow you to transmit on top of another user. The only calls you will hear are those with your PL code, even if you are off hook or press the monitor button. If you press PTT on the radio while there is a carrier on the channel, the radio follows this protocol: .P a. If the carrier has your PL, then you are allowed to transmit just like normal. b. If the carrier has no PL or the wrong PL, then you will hear a busy tone while you hold PTT. Release PTT and try again later. If you choose "N", then the radio will transmit and receive like a normal two-way radio. NOTE : Earlier radio software version do NOT support this feature! .P PHONE SIGNALLING SYSTEM 4513 This lets you assign the phone access/deaccess code on a mode basis. Enter here the number of the DTMF/PHONE signalling system that has the access and deaccess code you want to use on this channel. The access (ANI) sequence is sent when the 'select' button is pressed. If phone is not desired, do NOT assign a system here. .P MODE UTILITY 4580 The MODE UTILITY screen is used for adding, deleting, or moving the location (order) of Conventional modes. Modes may also be copied (duplicated), including scan lists (Mode-Slaved only). TCMS must be used for all Trunking mode modifications. The F8 (EXECUTE) function key is used to execute the changes once all information has been entered. The GET/SAVE functions must be used to program the changes into the radio, as is required for all CHANGE/VIEW modifications. .P UTILITY (Default = Add Mode) 4581 Use the UP/DOWN arrow keys to select the desired UTILITY function: Add Mode, Copy Mode, Delete Mode, or Move Mode. The F8 (EXECUTE) function key is used to execute the changes once all information has been entered. The GET/SAVE functions must be used to program the changes into the radio, as is required for all CHANGE/VIEW modifications. .P MODE TYPE (Default = Conventional) 4582 Mode Type is Conventional and cannot be changed. TCMS must be used for all Trunking mode modifications. .P INSERT AT MODE (Default = Blank) 4583 Enter the mode number that the mode is to be INSERTED AT. After entering this number and pressing Enter, the mode name for that mode will be displayed. Use the name to verify that the proper number was entered. For Dual-Mode radios, all Trunking modes must precede all Conventional modes. .P NEW MODE NAME (Default = Mode nn) 4584 Enter the 8-character alpha-numeric MODE NAME. The Mode Name will default to "Mode nn", where nn = mode number. If Mode Names are disabled, you will not be able to change this field. Each mode may be assigned a Name to facilitate ease of operation. The [Mode] rocker button is used to scroll forward or backward through the list of modes programmed in the radio. Since the mode number is required for direct keypad mode selection via the [Home] button for keypad models, using the mode number as part of the mode name is desirable, but not required. .P MODE TO COPY FROM (Default = Blank) 4585 Enter the Mode Number TO COPY FROM. Any valid conventional mode number may be entered. After entering this number and pressing Enter, the mode name for that mode will be displayed. Use the name to verify that the proper number was entered. Frequencies (Rx, Tx, T/A), squelch type, squelch codes, and all mode options will be copied. You may choose to copy the channel scan list (mode-slaved only) or to enter a new one. This field is required for the Copy Mode function; it is optional for the Add Mode function. .P COPY SCAN LIST (Default = N) 4586 Use the UP/DOWN arrow keys to select Y to copy the channel scan list (mode- slaved only) or N for a blank list. If the copied list is full (16 modes), the new mode will assume the priority of the copied mode and the copied mode will not be part of the new list. Otherwise, the new mode will assume the priority of the copied mode, and the copied mode will be a non-priority mode on the new list. .P MODE TO COPY TO (Default = Blank) 4587 Enter the Mode Number TO COPY TO. After entering this number and pressing Enter, the mode name for that mode will be displayed. Use the name to verify that the proper number was entered. Frequencies (Rx, Tx, T/A), squelch type, squelch codes, and all mode options will be copied. You may choose to copy the channel scan list (mode-slaved only) or to enter a new one after returning to the Mode Configuration screen. .P MODE TO DELETE (Default = Blank) 4588 Enter the Mode Number TO DELETE. After entering this number and pressing Enter, the mode name for that mode will be displayed. Use the name to verify that the proper number was entered. CAUTION: After the F8 (EXECUTE) function key has been pressed, the mode will be deleted and may not be recovered. However, if you make a mistake AND the data has not been programmed or saved (GET/SAVE functions), you may re-read the codeplug or original archive file and start over. .P MODE TO MOVE (Default = Blank) 4589 Enter the Mode Number TO MOVE. Any valid conventional mode number may moved. After entering this number and pressing Enter, the mode name for that mode will be displayed. Use the name to verify that the proper number was entered. The mode and all related parameters will be moved to the new position. All mode-slaved channel scan lists (if applicable) will reflect the new mode location, but otherwise will not be affected. .P MODE SLAVED SCAN LIST 4561 This screen displays the available modes and their scan TYPE for the mode display in the upper left side of the display. The scan types are changed by moving the cursor with the Enter or Tab keys to the desired Mode and changing its TYPE by using the up and down arrow keys. Note that Priority One is always the Mode that the current scan list is slaved to. This priority cannot be changed. Function Key Descriptions: F2 - GO TO MODE allows you to go to the Mode Slaved Scan List you want to modify without returning to the MODE CONFIGURATION screen and stepping through the modes in-between. .P MODE SLAVED SCAN LIST (cont) F3 & F4 - NEXT MODE will advance the screen to the next Mode Slaved Scan List. If you are at the last Mode in the radio then pressing F4 will take you to Mode 1. PREVIOUS MODE will return you to the previous Mode. If you are at Mode 1, pressing F3 will take you to the last Mode in the Radio. F5 - PRINT SCREEN will send the currently displayed Mode Slaved Scan List to the printer. F7 - ERASE LIST will remove all of the Modes from the current scan list. .P DISPLAY NAME 4600 This is the number you will see displayed when dialing this phone number. .P PHONE NUMBER 4601 This is the number you want to send. It is one (1) to sixteen (16) digits in length. Valid digits are 0 - 9, *, and #. Pauses are NOT allowed. There is no need to fill in all the phone number slots; it will be faster to find the number if you enter as few numbers as possible ... enter only frequently used phone numbers! .P DIAL SIGNALLING SYSTEM 4602 This is the signalling system that will be used to dial phone numbers. We made this separate from the access signalling system so that you may customize things such as dialing speed. For example, some phone systems will allow faster dialing than the phone patch. .P SYSTEM 4700 This screen allows you to configure one or more signalling systems. These signalling systems will be used by the Call List and Mode screens to determine when and where decode or encode. .P TYPE 4702 When this screen is displayed the cursor is placed on the TYPE data field. There are seven available system types. They are None, STAR, MDC1200, QCII (QUIK CALL), DTMF, Singletone and DTMF/PHONE. The system types are selected by using the Up/Down arrow keys. None implies that all of the signalling systems in the radio are deactivated. When STAR, MDC1200, QCII, Singletone, DTMF, or Singletone is activated the associated parameter data fields will be displayed. .P ID 4703 MDC1200 : MDC1200 requires that each radio have a unique four digit ID number. The default is the last four digits of the radio serial number. The range is from 0001 to DEEE. Four zeroes will show up as "NONE"; this is useful when you desire the radio to "listen only". An example of a "listen only" situation might be a volunteer fireman monitoring a fire dispatch channel. DTMF : DTMF requires each radio to have a unique 1 to 8 digit ID number. The default is the last four digits of the radio serial number. Digits 0 to 9, *, and # may be used. Any unused digits may be filled in with a '-' character. .P STAR : STAR requires that each radio have a unique four digit ID number. The default is the last four digits of the radio serial number. The range is from 0000 to 16383. You may enter the ID in two ways. The first way is without the tag bits added to the ID. In this case, you will type in the ID that you want to have appear on the dispatcher's console first. Then on the tag bit line you will set the proper combination for the customer. If the channel is only being used by one customer, then chances are the tags will be 0 0. The third line shows you what the ID would look like in a system which uses the tag bits as an extension of the ID. For reference, the first tag bit adds 8192 to the ID and the second adds 4096 to the ID. .P QCII : QCII ID corresponds to tones A, B, and C. It requires at least two unique tones. The default is 358.6 Hz (tone A), 903.s Hz (tone B), and 0.0 Hz (tone C). The range is from 304.0 to 2470.0 Hz. Don't be alarmed if the frequency that you type in changes by a few Hertz. This change can occur because the program must calculate the nearest frequency that the radio can understand. You will find that the error will always be within the acceptable industry bandwidth. SINGLETONE : This is the frequency of the tone that is sent. The default is 1049.7 Hz, with available tones ranging from 304.0 to 2470.0 Hz. Don't be alarmed if the program "rounds" the frequency up or down by a few Hertz. Remember that the tones will tend to have a higher distortion as the frequency drops; we suggest tones above 1 kHz when installing new systems. .P GROUP ID 4704 The MDC1200 id is a three hex digit number common to a group of radios and ranges from 000 to EEE. The DTMF id is a 1 to 8 digit id. The digits 0 to 9, *, and # may be used. It is IMPORTANT that the number of group digits does not exceed the number of id digits because the radio will never decode the group ID. .P CALL FORMAT 4705 There are 8 different choices for this field. The choice determines the sequence in which this radio needs to see the QCII tones for an individual or group call. The Up/Down arrow keys will scroll through the choices. The following is a list of those choices: A-B Tone A followed by Tone B. A-B/A-C Tone A followed by Tone B or Tone A followed by Tone C A-B/C-B Tone A followed by Tone B or Tone C followed by Tone B A-B/Long B Tone A followed by Tone B or Long Tone B A-B/Long C Tone A followed by Tone B or Long Tone C .P A-B/A-C/Long C Tone A followed by Tone B or Tone A followed by Tone C or Long Tone C A-B/Long B/Long C Tone A followed by Tone B or Long Tone B or Long Tone C A-B/A-C/Long B/Long C Tone A followed by Tone B or Tone A followed by Tone C or Long Tone B or Long Tone C In this table the first sequence is considered an "individual call" while the other sequences would be considered "group calls." For example:  For choice A-B/A-C/LONG C, an A-B sequence would be an "individual call" while an A-C or LONG C would be a "group call". Group calls normally cannot be acknowledged. .P CALL TYPE 4706 There are three different choices for this field. The Up/Down arrow keys will scroll through the following choices : Call Alert, Call Alert/Voice, and Voice Selcall. Call Alert leaves call indication at the receiving radio. Call Alert/Voice leaves a call indication and unmutes the loudspeaker of the receiving radio. Voice Selcall unmutes loudspeaker on receiving radio but does not leave any call indication. MDC1200 does not allow Voice Selcall call type since Voice Selcall is an inherent feature of all MDC1200 signalling systems. .P PL/DPL REQUIRED 4707 The Up/Down arrow keys will allow the choices of either "Y" or "N". "Y" implies the correct PL/DPL is required to recieve data. "N" implies PL/DPL is not required to receive data. In most systems you may choose "N", however, when you share a channel with other users who have the same signalling type then you should choose "Y". Choosing "Y" on shared channels will ensure that you don't accidentally receive a call which is directed to another user. Note : Some existing DTMF and Quik Call systems require PL stripping, and therefore it is recommended that an "N" be chosen in these cases. .P ACKNOWLEDGE 4708 The Up/Down arrow keys will allow the choices of either "Y" or "N". "Y" implies an acknowledge transpond tone will be sent after a valid call. "N" implies no acknowledge will be sent after a valid call. The radio normally will not acknowledge "group calls". .P ACKNOWLEDGE TYPE 4709 The acknowledge type can be one of the four following choices : 1. DIGIT - One DTMF digit will be transmitted after a valid call. Digit is entered on the Acknowledge Digit data field. 2. ID - The ID of the radio will be transmitted after a valid call. 3. TONE - A predetermined tone will be transmitted after a valid call. 4. NO - No acknowledge will be sent after a valid call. The Up/Down arrow keys will scroll through the allowable choices. NOTE : QCII only has choices 3 and 4. .P ACKNOWLEDGE DIGIT 4710 This field is is used in conjunction with the Acknowledge type field. This is the digit that is transmitted after a valid call if the acknowledge type is "DIGIT". Digits 0 to 9, *, and # may be used to create a ONE digit  acknowledge digit. .P ACK PRETIME 4711 Systems that use Call Alert require that the radio acknowledge (ACK) that the Call Alert has been received. ACK Pretime is the delay from when the radio receives a Call Alert to when it starts the ACK sequence. The default ACK pretime is 0.5 seconds. If a different pretime is required for your system move the cursor to the ACK Pretime data field and change the time using the up and down arrow keys. The range can be from 0.2 to 2.0 seconds in 0.1 second steps. .P HORN/LIGHTS 4712 When a Call Alert is received, an external output may be activated that can be used to control a vehicle's horn or lights. Horn/Lights may be selectable, permanent, or not available. If horn/lights are selectable then they may be defeated by the front panel Select button. If they are permanent, they cannot be defeated without an external switch in the relay cable. If they are not available, then they can never be activated. .P HORN/LIGHTS DELAY 4713 When External Alarm or Horn/Lights is activated by the operator, Call Alerts will activate the external alarm for six seconds. Horn/Lights Delay will delay the activation of the external alarm to allow the operator time, if he is in the vehicle, to respond to the Call Alert before the external alarm is activated. If the operator does respond during the delay time the external alarm will not be activated. The default time is 10.0 seconds. If a different Delay Time is required move the cursor to the Horn/Lights Delay data field and enter the desired delay. Use the up and down arrow keys to select a delay of 0, 5.0, 10.0 or 15.0 seconds. .P SIGNALLING SQUELCH 4714 This feature can either be enabled "Y" or disabled "N" using the Up/Down arrow keys. If this feature is enable "Y", then the front panel monitor button can be used to put the radio into signalling squelch. If this feature is disabled "N", then signalling squelch is not activated. The default is "N". Signalling Squelch is similar to Private Line. When enabled, the radio will only unmute for Call Alerts and Voice Selcalls. Like Private Line, Signalling Squelch can be disabled by pressing the monitor button or removing the microphone from the hang up clip. You will find that Signalling Squelch is automatically disabled when channel scan is on. .P DOS HOLDOFF 4715 Data Operated Squelch (DOS) is used with data signalling systems (such as MDC-1200) to mute the data transmissions to reduce operator annoyance. DOS attempts to mute the speaker when data is present on the channel. DOS Holdoff keeps the speaker muted for a preset period of time from when carrier is detected by the squelch circuit. This allows the DOS time to detect any data activity, further  reducing the annoyance of data being heard from the speaker. The default holdoff is 0.5 seconds. If a different holdoff time is required for your system move the cursor to the DOS Holdoff data field and change the time using the Up/Down arrow keys. The range can be from 0.0 to 4.3 seconds in 0.1 second steps. The radio automatically defeats DOS Holdoff while channel scan is turned on. .P PTT ID 4716 If you want your unit id to be sent on each Push-to-talk (PTT), then set this field to "PRE", "POST", or "BOTH". "PRE" sends the id at the press of PTT. "POST" sends the id upon release of PTT. "BOTH" sends the id twice per transmission, once at the press and once at the release of PTT. If you choose "NONE", then the id will not be sent during PTT. .P PTT SIDETONE 4717 PTT sidetones are used when PTT ID is activated. Sidetones are heard through the speaker when the operator first presses the PTT. They are used to tell the operator that he cannot speak until the ID has been transmitted. There are two sidetones available in the Radius. The PTT ID Sidetone is a continuous tone heard from PTT until the ID has been sent. The second tone, PTT Short Sidetone, is a short beep after the ID has been sent. Both tell the operator when he is permitted to speak into the microphone. One, both or no Sidetones maybe activated. They can be activated by moving the cursor to the desired sidetone and using the Up/Down arrow keys to choose either "Y" or "N" to either activate or deactivate the sidetones. .P The Sidetone choice is also used when sending a call from the Call List. It is suggested that if this signalling system is to be used by a Call List entry that the Sidetone(s) be enabled. .P PTT SHORT SIDETONE 4718 PTT sidetones are used when PTT ID is activated. Sidetones are heard through the speaker when the operator first presses the PTT. They are used to tell the operator that he cannot yet speak until the ID has been transmitted. There are two sidetones available in the Radius. The PTT ID Sidetone is a continuous tone heard from PTT until the ID has been sent. The second tone, PTT Short Sidetone, is a short beep after the ID has been sent. Both tell the operator when he is permitted to speak into the microphone. One, both or no Sidetones maybe activated. They can be activated by moving the cursor to the desired sidetone and using the Up/Down arrow keys to choose either "Y" or "N" to activate or deactivate the sidetones. .P The Sidetone choice is also used when sending a call from the Call List and whenever a sequence is generated by pressing the 'Select' button. It is suggested that if this signalling system is to be used by a Call List entry that the Sidetone(s) be enabled. .P  PRETIME 4719 The pretime is the delay from the start of transmit (when the operator pushes PTT) to when the data signalling begins. This delay is required in order to allow the radio to completely open the communications path through repeaters or other system components. The default pretime is 0.5 seconds. If a different pretime is required for your system move the cursor to the Pretime data field and change the time using the Up/Down arrow keys. The range can be from 0.1 to 4.3 seconds in 0.1 second steps. .P FIXED RETRY WAIT 4720 When emergency is activated by the operator the radio expects an acknowledge from the base station. If no acknowledge is received then the radio will repeat the emergency sequence after a delay. The radio always waits a random time greater than twice the Pretime. The additional time is the Fixed Retry Wait time. Fixed Retry Wait is the time the radio waits between emergency tries. The default is 0.0 seconds (STAR default is 8.1 seconds). If a different Wait Time is required move the cursor to the Fixed Retry Wait data field and change the time using the Up/Down arrow keys. The range can be from 0.0 seconds to 16.9 seconds in 0.4 second steps. .P DECODE DISPLAY 4721 When a PTT ID transmission is received by the radio it contains the ID of the transmitting radio. The name of the call entry associated with the transmitting radio ID will be displayed on the screen. If no call entry is associated with the transmitting radio ID, then "00" (not for DTMF) will be displayed on the radio.

Once this call list is complete, you may use the 'Select' button on the front of your radio to select the individual or group that you wish to call. The list is built one entry at a time. The sequence of the entries is exactly the same as the order you would select them from the front of the radio. The entry sequence may be important for your customer, so it is best to check with him/her first. You may mix different signalling formats in any order in the list. Up to 99 different entries are allowed. To create the first entry in a blank list, you will have to use the F8 key. .P DISPLAY NAME 4901 The name/number that will show on the radio display whenever this entry is being selected. This will can be any number from 1 to 126. We suggest that the number be large so that your customer can easily distinguish that this is not a channel number. .P SIGNALLING SYSTEM 4902 This determines which signalling format and timing will be used when sending the call. .P REVERT MODE 4903 This field determines on which channel the call will be sent. If you always want the call to go out on whatever channel your customer is on, then you want 'NONE'; do this by using the UP/DOWN keys or typing '00'. If you always want the call to be sent on a specific channel, then use the UP/DOWN keys until this channel is displayed. Remember, however, that when the call is complete the radio will remain on the sending channel. .P ACKNOWLEDGE EXPECTED 4904 This determines whether or not the radio will expect an acknowledge from unit(s) being called.

If an acknowledge is not expected, the radio will only send the call one time and will not show any type of acknowledge display. .P In general, you would like to answer 'YES'. Group calls, however, normally should be 'NO'. No acknowledge is expected for DTMF or Quik Call (their acknowledge is heard only by the user and is not decoded). Answering 'NO' to MDC1200 individual entries is acceptable for call alert and voice selcall, however, to send a radio check you MUST answer 'YES'. .P STRIP PL 4905 Answering 'YES' to this question will cause the radio to send the call without PL or DPL. This can be useful if you want to selectively call a  group or unit without disturbing everyone else on the channel (this normally CANNOT be done on a community repeater!) .P ID TYPE 4906 If this field is shown, use your UP/DOWN keys to determine if this is an INDIVIDUAL, GROUP, or FLEET call. Individual Id - It is four digits long. The numbers 0-9 and letters A-F can be used. 'F' acts as a wildcard and 'E' is not available for the first digit. Group Id - Three selectable digits, 0-F. The first digit is automatically inserted by the program. .P Fleet Id - One selectable digits, 0-F. The first digit is automatically set to 'E' and the third and fourth digits are set to 'F'.
