Field Definitions
Personality
Protocol Type
System/ID
Type
Size Code
Use the UP/DOWN arrow keys or use the F3/F4 keys to scroll through
the available personalities and make your selection. Personalities can
be added by pressing F2 or deleted by pressing F5. You will be
prompted before the personality is actually deleted.
Use the UP/DOWN arrows to select the Protocol Type. This refers to
the type of Trunking system. The available options are:
Type I
The original MOTOROLA Trunked signalling protocol.
Type II
An enhanced version of the original protocol that
provides additional fleet management flexibility for a
given system via an expanded signalling format.
Type IIi
A hybrid of Type I and II that permits a radio to
operate as a Type II unit on a Type I system.
Use the UP/DOWN arrow keys to select the Trunking system the
current personality is to use. (The system ID is shown according to
system number). The Trunking system should be set up on the TRUNKING
SYSTEM screen (F4/F4/F3) before personality information is entered since
some of these fields depend on Trunking system information.
Use the UP/DOWN arrows to make your selection. The selection in
this field indicates the Trunked signalling protocol used on this
system.
If the Trunking System is Type I, the range of the ID changes for different
size codes. The ID is a three-digit hexadecimal number. If you have
more than one fleet on a system, you may want to use a Universal ID
so that people calling the radio can use a single ID. Press F8 to go to
the UNIVERSAL ID screen where you can enter the information
required to use a universal ID.
If the Trunking System is Type II or IIi, the individual ID is a four-digit
hexadecimal number. For Type II Trunking, your radio will have a
single Individual ID for each system, independent of the number of
talkgroups, user groups or personalities it is affiliated with on that
system.
A system key or FTR key is required to access this field. Use the UP/DOWN
arrow keys to choose the Size Code for this fleet. The Size Code
determines the maximum number of fleets, subfleets and individual
IDs allowed. Valid size codes are: A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, J, K, M, O and
Q.
Note: The size code and fleet ID chosen must match the
programming of the Central Controller.
