Scan Lockout Mode; Data Lockout Mode; Status Operation - Ericsson TRUNKED MDX Operator's Manual

SCAN LOCKOUT MODE

Following the transmission or reception of a data call, if scan is enabled,
scanning will stop temporarily (duration pre-programmed). During this time
the scan LED will flash to indicate that scan is enabled but temporarily
suspended. This mode is normally exited when the pre-programmed time
expires; however, the following actions will terminate the scan lockout mode
before the timeout is completed.
• The CLR button is pressed.
• PTT is pressed.
• A group or system change.
• Entering phone call mode.
• A new emergency assignment has been received.
• PTT pressed in Public Address Mode.
• An emergency declared or cleared.
• Microphone removed from hookswitch (off-hook).
• Receiving an individual or phone call.
• Receiving Agency, Fleet or System All Call.
• Pressing the SCN button to turn scan on or off.

DATA LOCKOUT MODE

The data lock mode is a pre-programmed mode when the radio will not
respond to any data channel assignments and prevents receive data calls from
interrupting voice calls. Transmit data calls will still be initiated when needed
by the operator. After a pre-programmed time, the radio will respond to receive
data calls; however, the following conditions will clear the data lockout mode:
• The CLR button is pressed.
• Transmitting a data call.
• Changing a system.
• An emergency.
• Pressing PTT while in Public Address mode.
• Turning scan on with the SCN button.

STATUS OPERATION

ditions to the trunked site. The status can be sent in two ways.
1. Press the MNU button until "STATUS" appears in the display. Use
the GROUP/SEL buttons to step through the selections.
