4-4.7 Storing ALE parameters
Before exiting the ALE programming menu, you must store the parameters you have programmed.
NOTE
If you press the MENU or ESC key to exit programming mode without
first saving your changes, you will be prompted to store the ALE
configuration changes. Press YES to store the configuration.
If you press NO, the configuration will revert to the previous
configuration, and any changes made in the ALE programming
session will be ignored.
4-4.8 Using the New Station Address Filter
To help you add new station addresses to the ALE directory of your radio set in a controlled manner,
Micom-Z has a special ALE address filter. To enable this filter, enable the Auto Address function on
the PROG > ALE > OPT > AADR menu (this function can also be enabled by means of the MRC).
When enabled, the address filter compares the source address of each call received by your radio set
with the addresses stored in the ALE directory. When the first new unlisted address is found, it is
stored in a special memory stack, and you are notified that at least one unlisted address has been
detected by adding the option RCV under PROG > ALE, after the NET option. When you want to
check the addresses stored in the stack, you select RCV and then decide whether to erase an address or
add it to the ALE directory of your radio set.
Up to 20 new addresses can be stored in this stack, which is organized as a FIFO stack: this means that
when a new address, different from all the previously detected addresses, is received while 20
addresses are already stored, it will replace the oldest address.
The information on the received addresses is automatically erased when the radio is turned off; only
addresses added to the directory remain in the directory.
To edit the received addresses and add addresses to the ALE directory:
1. Press MENU and select ALE.
2. When addresses are stored in the new received addresses stack, you will see the RCV option.
Press RCV to display the RCV screen.
3. The RCV screen displays the last detected unlisted address. Use the UP/DOWN arrows to
display the desired address (the display is cyclical).
4. When the desired address is displayed, press the key corresponding to the action to be
performed:
• To delete the address from the stack, press ERAS.
• To add the address to the directory, press ADD. The address is removed from the stack.
5. To confirm, press SAVE.
6. Repeat the actions until all the desired addresses are processed. When done, press ESC to end.
If the stack is now empty, the RCV option is no longer displayed on the ALE menu.
