Automatic Multiple Site Select (Amss) Operation - Motorola MTX-800 Classic User Manual

Automatic Multiple Site Select (AMSS) Operation

(Not Factory Programmable)
If your radio has AMSS you can operate on up to eight sites in
your area. With AMSS enabled, your radio automatically tries to find
the best site available. However, you can force it to look for another
site. The orange side button is used to force the radio to search or lock
onto a site.
Press and quickly release the
button to force a search to the next
site. The radio will make a valid key
"chirp." If the radio was previously
locked onto a site, it will automatically
unlock from that site.
To lock the radio onto a site, find
a site with good audio quality by
forcing it to search for sites as
described above. Press and hold the
button for over one second. The radio
will make a valid key "chirp" on initial
press and another chirp after one
second. After the second chirp, the
radio is locked onto the current site.
Release the button.
When the radio operates in an
AMSS system, there are up to eight
sites available. Associated with each
of these sites is one failsoft
frequency. If the system goes into
failsoft, the AMSS side button works
as described above allowing the radio
to scan and lock onto sites.
If one or more sites are in
failsoft, you can still change sites. It
may take several seconds as the
radio first searches for a new trunking
site before searching for a new
failsoft site.
