Failsoft; Site Lock - Motorola ASTRO Digital XTS 3000 User Manual

Special Radio Features

• Failsoft

If a trunking system experiences a complete failure,
the radio will revert to failsoft operation and
automatically switch to its failsoft channel. During
failsoft, the trunking repeaters will transmit a
medium-pitched tone every 10 seconds. When the
trunking system returns to normal operation, your
radio will automatically leave the failsoft operation
and return to trunked operation.
• Out-of-Range
If you go out of range of the system and can no
longer lock onto a control channel, the display will
alternately display "
currently selected zone/channel combination, and/
or sound a low-pitched tone. Your radio will remain
in this out-of-range condition until it (1) locks onto
a control channel, (2) locks onto a failsoft channel,
or (3) the radio is turned off.

• Site Lock

This feature allows your radio to lock onto a specific site and not roam among
wide-area talkgroup sites. This is particularly useful when operating at the
fringe of a system's coverage.
