CALL QUEUED
If one short, high pitched tone sounds
after the transmitter is keyed, this
indicates that the system has placed
the request in a queue. This tone
sounds at both the transmitting unit
and the receiving unit(s), indicating to
the user on the receiving end that
they will receive a call shortly. If the
PPT button or
key is pressed
while in queue, the radio autokeys
(automatically keys) push-to-talk
when a channel becomes available
(see AUTOKEY).
AUTOKEY
When the
PPT button or
key is
pressed to place a call on the system,
but is released before the channel is
assigned (e.g. a queued call), the
radio automatically keys on the
channel when it gets the assignment.
The radio generates a long beep and
holds the transmitter keyed for two
seconds. Pressing the PTT button
keeps the channel and sends the
message before this two second
time-out has expired.
SYSTEM BUSY
If you press the
PPT button or
key and hear three short, medium
pitched tones, this indicates that the
receiving party is already on the
system or the system is busy and its
queue is full. You must rekey later to
access the system.
CALL DENIED
A single low pitch beep sounds when
the
PPT button or
key is
pressed and the request is denied by
the system. This happens if the unit is
an invalid user or if the unit is
requesting an unavailable service.
OUT OF RANGE SYSTEM INOPERATIVE
A single low pitched tone sounds
immediately after the
PPT button or
key is pressed indicating the
radio is out of range of the repeater.
The radio tries to place the call for a
short period (3 seconds) after the
initial attempt. The radio generates a
second low pitched tone when it
gives up trying to place the call. The
system is off the air or the radio
needs servicing when the radio is
within calling range, and these tones
are heard.
