Using Radio Kill

This feature allows you to render your radio or another radio
inoperable if the radio is misplaced or lost. When a radio is
killed, the DRSM display turns blank and all functions of the
radio are not usable.
The killed radio can only be recovered from KILL with a special
device. Consult an authorised and qualified technician for
details.

Using the Failsoft System

The failsoft system ensures continuous radio communications
during a trunked system failure. If a trunking system fails
completely, your radio goes into failsoft operation and
automatically switches to its failsoft channel.
Procedure:
1
During failsoft operation, your radio transmits and receives
in conventional operation on a predetermined frequency.
2
A medium-pitched tone sounds every 10 seconds and the
display shows FAILSOFT.
When the trunking system returns to normal operation, your
radio automatically leaves failsoft operation and returns to
trunked operation.
