Voted Site Information
On some systems the site selected as the one receiving the strongest signal by the
system will be indicated in a text message at the bottom of the channel buttons. This text
will be updated each time the voter determines that a new site is receiving a stronger signal
than the original site. The text on the display reflecting these updates.
Channel Functions
Within the function button area of the main window are some Channel function buttons.
These allow the operator to set radio channel facilities.
An operator can only change the functions of a channel that is in the select mode; channels
that are OFF or in the monitor mode cannot have their functions adjusted.
There are two modes of operation for the channel functions one for single channel select
mode and a second for multi channel select mode.
Single Channel Select Mode
When the software is running in single channel select mode as set in the “Set Up” screen,
clicking on the channel function button will automatically set or reset the facility on the
channel that is selected. If no channels are selected then the function buttons do not have
any effect.
Multi Channel Select Mode
If the single channel select mode has not been activated and the operator is able to select
multiple channels, a slightly different mode of operation is required for the function buttons.
Again the functions can only be set on channels that are selected.
