External Alarm
Depending on the accessories ordered and installed
with your radio the external alarm function activates
the vehicle horn or lights if you do not respond to a
call (Page, Trunking Private Call, or Trunking Phone
Call) before a pre-programmed time.
Press button (6) or select HORN/LIGHTS via the
menu to turn the external alarm on. "HORN/LIGHTS
ON" alternates on the display to indicate the feature is
active. Turn the alarm off by pressing button (6) again
or via the menu.
Handset Operation
To select Handset operation, select HANDSET from
the menu and select HANDSET ON. When HANDSET
ON is selected and the handset is removed from the
Hang up box (HUB) audio will be heard only through
the handset speaker and the radio speaker will be
muted for privacy.
When the handset is placed in the HUB, or when
HANDSET OFF is selected from the menu, audio will
be heard through the radio speaker.
Car Radio Mute
If the car radio mute feature is programmed into your
MCS 2000, your standard car radio will momentarily
mute when your MCS 2000 mobile radio is transmit-
ting or receiving. Please contact the person in charge
of your radio system for further information.
Failsoft
The failsoft feature ensures that a conversation is not
interrupted if the trunked system fails. In this mode
communication will be maintained on an open chan-
nel. The failsoft tone will sound every 10 seconds and
the display will alternate between
