ISOLATED SITE OPERATION

Isolated Site Operation (ISO) allows group call communications
to continue within a single cell site when connectivity to the net-
work is lost by allowing the cell to operate in a local, one cell only
mode. ISO is limited to dispatch talkgroup calls only. In Phone
and Private Conversation modes the display will update to
include "-Isoft" on the first line. Talkgroup communications will
be limited to only those units that are connected to the ISO cell,
and only on the talkgroup or Talkgroup Mode (depending on
Scan setting) that the subscriber unit last used before the cell
entered the ISO state.

Entering ISO

The mobile will enter the ISO state when its cell becomes iso-
lated from the network, assuming the mobile has no available
neighbor cells. It will display one of the following screens: (The
LED indicator is off in ISO unless the unit is transmitting. While
transmitting, the LED will be green).
