This system is designed to inform you when you and another ARTS™-equipped
station are within communication range.
During ARTS™ operation, when the radio receives an incoming ARTS™ signal,
a short beep will sound. If you move out of range for more than two minutes, your
radio senses that no signal has been received; a short triple-beep will sound. If you
subsequently move back into communication range, as soon as the other station
transmits, a short beep will sound.
In the
EVX-5400
, when the radio receives an incoming ARTS™ signal, “IN
SERV” (“In Service”) will be indicated on the display for 2 seconds, and if you
move out of range for more than two minutes, your radio senses that no signal has
been received; “OUT SERV” (“Out of Service”) will be displayed on the display
for 2 seconds.
