Pre-Programmed Keypad Key
1. Press the pre-programmed key and the display will indicate SQLCH=xx,
where "xx" is the value between 1 and 16.
2. Use the RAMP control
, or . to scroll through the values. Then press
the
m (SELECT) key to save the new value or wait for the display time-
out (2 seconds). The displayed value will be selected and saved.
3. If the
c key is pressed before the time-out, the squelch level will not be
updated and the original value will be restored.
TYPE 99 DECODE (CONVENTIONAL ONLY)
If the Type 99 Decode Option has been pre-programmed, individual selective
calling is possible. The radio can now decode individual, group or supergroup
paging calls. Two sets of Type 99 paging codes must be pre-programmed into
the radio. When the radio decodes an appropriate Type 99 code sequence, an
alert tone and visual indicator is provided to the user. The receiver then
operates as a noise squelched unit until Type 99 is reset. Type 99 decode
continues to operate during this noise squelched period. The appropriate Type
99 alert tone will sound again if it detects a valid two-tone sequence.
Type 99 operation can be reset manually or automatically (pre-programmed).
Manual reset is achieved by briefly pressing
c, if programmed. Automatic
reset, if enabled, occurs after a 30 second interval following the most recent
decode of a Type 99 tone sequence. Hookswitch (pre-programmed) can also
enable or disable Type 99 decode. The pre-programmed key light will blink
when Type 99 is disabled by the hookswitch.
Type 99 decode will continue to be active while the radio's
c button is
pressed. This allows the user to monitor calls and still be alerted when a call is
directed to the user. While the user continues to press
c, the user will hear
both calls and all Type 99 tone signals. If c is pressed for longer than two
(2) seconds, Type 99 decode will either be disabled or re-enabled depending
upon its present state.
To check the Type 99 enable status, press the Scan Add/Delete
< or >. The
current status of Type 99 decode will be displayed for a time-out period. Type
99 is enabled when the letter T is displayed in the third segment from right on
the first line of the LCD.
If a Horn Alert Option is installed and enabled with the Type 99 Decode
Option, the radio can beep the vehicle horn when a Type 99 call is received.
This option permits alerting persons out of the vehicle when a call is received.
NOTE
Type 99 is automatically disabled when Scan is enabled.
