Multi-Site Mode (Motorola and P25)
Some Motorola and P25 system sites are networked
to provide wider coverage, similar to a cellular
network. Like in a phone network coverage area,
their radios automatically use the nearest tower site.
To activate Multi-site mode:
1. Press PGM,
2. Use the 4-direction keypad to navigate to a
talkgroup on the networked multi-site system.
3. Press the EDIT softkey.
4. Press the CURR softkey.
5. Scroll down to the TSYS item and press SEL to
edit the system parameters.
6. Scroll to Multi-Site, and use the four-direction
keypad to select:
Off – The scanner will use the first usable control
channel in the control channel list.
Stat – The scanner will track the system using
any usable control channel in the list.
Roam – The scanner will use only the best
control channel. You can adjust the Threshold
values to improve performance.
7. Press the SAVE softkey.
8. Press the SAVE softkey again.
NOTE: You should experiment with the different
multi-site modes and the threshold settings to find a
combination that works best for your location.
