Note:

Your radio also switches between digital and analogmodes during a dual mode scan (see Scan on page34).

To use the programmed Channel Up or ChannelDown buttons, press Channel Up or Channel Downto select the required channel.

IP Site Connect This feature allows your radio to extend conventionalcommunication beyond the reach of a single site, byconnecting to different available sites which areconnected via an Internet Protocol (IP) network.

When the radio moves out of range from one site andinto the range of another, it connects to the new site'srepeater to send or receive calls/data transmissions.Depending on your settings, this is doneautomatically or manually.

If the radio is set to do this automatically, it scansthrough all available sites when the signal from thecurrent site is weak or when the radio is unable todetect any signal from the current site. It then lockson to the repeater with the strongest Received SignalStrength Indicator (RSSI) value.

In a manual site search, the radio searches for thenext site in the roam list that is currently in range (butwhich may not have the strongest signal) and lockson to it.

Scan ListsScan lists are created and assigned to individualchannels/ groups. Your radio scans for voice activityby cycling through the channel/group sequencespecified in the scan list for the current channel/group.

Your radio can support up to 250 scan lists, with amaximum of 16 members in a list. Each scan listsupports a mixture of both analog and digital entries.


ScanWhen you start a scan, your radio cycles through theprogrammed scan list for the current channel lookingfor voice activity.

The LED blinks yellow.

During a dual mode scan, if you are on a digitalchannel, and your radio locks onto an analogchannel, it automatically switches from digital mode toanalog mode for the duration of the call. This is alsotrue for the reverse.

There are two ways of initiating scan:

• Main Channel Scan (Manual): Your radio scansall the channels/groups in your scan list. Onentering scan, your radio may – depending on thesettings – automatically start on the last scanned“active” channel/group or on the channel wherescan was initiated.

• Auto Scan (Automatic): Your radio automaticallystarts scanning when you select a channel/groupthat has Auto Scan enabled.


Starting and Stopping Scan

Advanced Features in Connect PlusMode

Auto FallbackAuto Fallback is a system feature that allows you tocontinue to make and receive non-emergency callson the selected Group Contact in the event of certaintypes of Connect Plus system failures.

If one of these failures occurs, your radio attempts toroam to a different Connect Plus site. This searchprocess may result in your radio finding an operableConnect Plus site, or it may result in your radio findinga “Fallback Channel” (if your radio is enabled for AutoFallback). A Fallback Channel is a repeater that isnormally part of an operable Connect Plus site, but iscurrently unable to communicate with either its sitecontroller or the Connect Plus network. In Fallbackmode, the repeater operates as a single digitalrepeater. Auto Fallback Mode supports non-emergency Group Calls only. No other call types aresupported in Fallback Mode.

Indications of Auto Fallback Mode

When your radio is using a Fallback channel, youhear the intermittent “Fallback Tone” approximatelyonce every 15 seconds (except while transmitting).The display periodically shows a brief message,“Fallback Channel”. Your radio only permits PTT onthe selected Group Contact (Group Call, MultigroupCall, or Site All Call). It does not allow you to makeother types of calls.

Making/Receiving Calls in Fallback Mode

Note: Calls are heard only by radios that aremonitoring the same Fallback channel and selectedto the same Group. Calls are not networked to othersites or other repeaters.

Emergency voice calls or Emergency Alerts are notavailable in Fallback mode. If you press theemergency button in Fallback mode, the radioprovides an invalid key press tone. Display-equippedradios also show the message, “Feature notavailable”.

Private (radio to radio) calls are not available inFallback mode. If you attempt a call to a privatecontact, you will receive a denial tone. At this point

Advanced Features in C

English

you should select a desired group contact. Other non-supported calls include Remote Monitor, Call Alert,Radio Check, Radio Enable, Radio Disable, Textmessaging, Location Updates, and packet data calls.

Enhanced Traffic Channel Access (ETCA) is notsupported in Auto Fallback mode. If two or more radiousers press PTT at the same time (or at almost thesame time), it is possible that both radios transmituntil PTT is released. In this event, it is possible thatnone of the transmissions will be understood byreceiving radios.

Making calls in Fallback mode is similar to normalfunctioning. Simply select the group contact you wishto use (using the radio’s normal channel selectionmethod), and then press the PTT to start your call. Itis possible that the channel may be in use already byanother group. If the channel is in use, you receive abusy tone and the display will say “Channel Busy”.You may select Group, Multi-group or Site All Callcontacts using your radio’s normal channel selectionmethod. While the radio is operating on the FallbackChannel, the Multigroup operates just like otherGroups. It is only heard by radios that are currentlyselected to the same Multi-group.

Returning to Normal Operation

If the site returns to normal trunking operation whileyou are in range of your Fallback repeater, your radioautomatically exits Auto Fallback mode. You hear aregistration “beep” when the radio successfullyregisters. If you are in the range of an operable site(that is not in Fallback mode), you may press theRoam Request button (if programmed for your radio)to force your radio to search for and register on anavailable site. If no other site is available, your radioreturns to Auto Fallback mode after searching iscomplete. If you drive out of coverage of yourFallback repeater, your radio enters Search mode(display indicates “Searching”).

ScanThis feature allows your radio to monitor and join callsfor groups defined in a pre-programmed scan list.When scan is enabled, the scan icon appears on thestatus bar and the LED blinks yellow when idle.

4 Release the PTT button to listen.If you do not respond within the hang time, theradio returns to scanning other groups.

User Configurable ScanIf the Edit List menu is enabled, a user is able to Addand Remove the scan members from the AddMember menu. A Scan List member must be aregular Group Contact (i.e. not Multi-group or Site AllCall/Network Wide All Call) that is currently assignedto a Channel Selector position in a Connect PlusZone with the same Network ID as the currentlyselected Zone. The Talkgroup alias must not matchany Talkgroup that has been included in the currentZone's Scan List.

Scan can be turned on or off from the menu or bypressing a programmed Scan On/Off button.

This feature functions only when the radio is notcurrently involved in a call. If you are presentlylistening to a call, your radio cannot scan for othergroup calls, and is therefore unaware they are inprogress. Once your call is finished, your radioreturns to the control channel time slot and is able toscan for groups that are in the scan list.

Turning Scan On or Off

Note: This procedure turns the Scan feature On orOff for all zones with the same Network ID as yourcurrently selected zone.

When Scan is on and you are not participating in acall, the LED blinks green and yellow.

The procedure for turning Scan on or off depends onhow your radio is programmed. If programmed with aScan On/Off button, use the button to toggle thefeature on or off.

• A tone sounds indicating that Scan has beenturned on or off.

• When Scan is enabled, the tone’s pitch increases.• When Scan is disabled, the tone’s pitch

decreases.

Understanding Scan Operation

Note: If the Radio joins a call for a Zone Scan Listmember from a different Zone and Call Hang Timerexpires before you are able to respond, in order torespond, you must navigate to the Zone and Channelof the Scan List Member and start a new call.

There are some circumstances in which you can misscalls for groups that are in your scan list. When you

miss a call for one of the following reasons, this doesnot indicate a problem with your radio. This is anormal scan operation for Connect Plus.

• Scan feature is not turned on (check for the scanicon on the display).

• You are participating in a call already.• No member of the scanned group is registered at

your site (Multisite systems only).

Contacts SettingsNote: You can add, or edit subscriber IDs for ConnectPlus Contacts. Deleting subscriber IDs can only beperformed by your dealer.

If the Privacy feature is enabled on a channel, youcan make a privacy-enabled voice call on thatchannel. Only target radios with the same PrivacyKey OR the same Key Value and Key ID as yourradio are able to unscramble the transmission.

Contacts provide “address-book” capabilities on yourradio. Each entry corresponds to an alias or ID thatyou use to initiate a call.
