Your Voice Feature Personality - OpenSky P800 User Manual

Your Voice Feature Personality

When you activate your radio at the beginning of a
shift your unique identity code is used to sign on, your
radio is assigned its IP address and "provisioned" with
a radio personality that identifies other users on the
network with whom you are most likely to need to
communicate by voice. If you need to modify your
identity code bring your P800 to your network
administrator.
Some users you'll only monitor, others you'll want to
talk with during the course of your shift, just as with
older analog equipment you talked over one frequency
and monitored others to keep informed about the
activities of users in your agency, workgroup, task
force, fleet or geographic area.
Your overall radio personality is organized into User

personality.
Global Voice Profile
Profile 1 is known as the Global Voice Group. It is
always active scanning for inbound calls. It is usually
allocated to a "Fleet" operation allowing users to
receive broadcast calls independently of the active
profile.
There can be only one active user profile at any time.
Within that profile, only one user group is your talk
group; the others are listen groups. So, while you have
tremendous capability to establish contact with a very
large number of users, you'll need to select the profile
that puts you into voice contact with the talk group you
need at any time.
