INVALID CALL

ORIGINATE

ALERT

A low frequency tone is sounded for one second

immediately after pressing PTT and the display

does not show WAIT. This indicates a call was

attempted within a group that is not enabled for call

originate or an invalid dispatch overdial call was

attempted.

SYSTEM TONES A low frequency tone is sounded for one second

after attempting to place a trunked call and BUSY

will be displayed. This indicates the GE-MARC

system is busy. If the "Call Retry" option has been

enabled through programming, the radio will retry

at 5 second intervals, up to 15 times unless END

is pressed, a channel is acquired, or an out-of-range

condition occurs.

OUT OF RANGE

ALERT

If NO SVC is displayed and five beeps are sounded

after attempting to place a trunked call, then the

radio is out of range of the GE-MARC system. If

the beeps sound when the radio is within known

range of the system, the radio may need servicing.

If the "Call Retry" is active, the radio will try the

channel at twenty second intervals for five min-

utes.

CARRIER

CONTROL

TIMER

(GE-MARC and Conventional ) A pulsed tone

signal is sounded after PTT is pressed continu-

ously for a pre-programmed time. After nine sec-

onds of pulsing the alert tone, the radio unkeys the

transmitter and communications are interrupted.

While the tone is pulsing, the user can release and

press PTT again to reset the timer and resume the

conversation. In the conventional mode, the radio

unkeys and beeps until PTT is released.

SYSTEM TONES The GE- MARC radio may generate other system

tones to alert the user of custom programmed

events. Contact your GE-MARC system operator

for details about these alert tones.
