HELP
This screen can be accessed only if a System Key is present and the Failsoft
Type field on the TRUNKING PERSONALITY screen (F4/F4/F4) is set to
WAC AMSS. It is used to enter Failsoft frequencies used by Wide Area
AMSS systems. A transmit and a receive frequency are required for the
Other Band Trunking (OBT) protocol. If the Status field on this screen is
enabled and the repeater system fails, the radio will go into Failsoft
mode. This means the radio will act like a Conventional talkaround
radio, transmitting and receiving on the same frequency.
In non-wide area AMSS systems, the radio can select the
talkaround frequency by talkgroup because the groups are
assumed to be within range of each other.
In wide-area AMSS, Failsoft frequencies must be chosen according
to the location of the radio, which is determined according to the
repeater that the radio is using. A frequency is assigned to each
repeater for Failsoft operation.
Press Tab to select the desired field, or press the desired function key
(F1 - F10). If a field is highlighted, use the UP/DOWN arrow keys to
select the desired choice or value.
Use the UP/DOWN arrow keys to scroll through the available
personalities.
Use the UP/DOWN arrow keys to enable/disable Failsoft for the
current personality. If this field is enabled and the repeater system fails,
the radio will go into Failsoft mode. This means the radio will act like
a conventional talkaround radio, transmitting and receiving on the
same frequency.
The default is Disabled.
Enter or Scroll to Select Value.
