NOTE
All menus except the dwell display menu can be turned
off by network administration personnel.
No V-TAC-related menus are displayed on non-V-TAC
radios/control heads.
The “Vchan Menu” is not displayed if the V-TAC is in the
Mobile-Only mode.
If a V-TAC is in an Extended Coverage mode (XCOV or
XCOV-TG), the number of portable radios (“clients”)
connected to the V-TAC is displayed in the bottom line of
the dwell menu.
If a V-TAC is in the Extended Coverage for talk groups
mode (XCOV-TG), the selected talk group and profile in
use is displayed.
Figure 3-4: Top and Bottom Display Lines
3.2.6 Menu Display and Control Area
Following power-up, the radio display shows the default talk group. Pressing
the c and d buttons change the display to the next available menu. Refer to
Figure 3-3: Basic Menu Structure. In many cases, the dwell display
automatically re-appears after no menu buttons are pressed for a short period
of time (between 10 and 30 seconds). For some menus such as the GPS Fix
and User ID menus, this does not occur until the user presses a front panel
button.
When the dwell display is active, it will change dynamically to reflect the
current profile, received talk group/caller ID (when available), or channel
(when enabled). V-TAC mode or V-TAC channel can be displayed as well on
V-TAC installations.
The radio’s display is highly interactive. It responds in the top and bottom text
lines as the user presses the menu buttons (c, d, ◄, ► and Select) to scroll
through the menu loop and the entries for each menu.
