CS-F620TR Programming Software Manual
Description
Select "Enable" or "Inhibit". Selecting "INH"
will force the radio to always remain on its
home site, completely inhibiting it from
roaming. Selecting "Enable" will ensure that
the radio can roam normally.
Select "Enable" or "Disable". When the radio
first goes into search mode (roam), selecting
"Enable" will force the radio to search every
frequency in its immediate neighbor list
(frequencies collected from the site the radio is
currently registered to). It will then register to
the strongest site in the search (if that site meets
search [roam] criteria). "Disable" will allow the
radio, while searching, to register to the first
site it finds that meets search (roam) criteria.
Enabling this function may allow a radio to
find the best site for a given area. Disabling this
function allows the radio to discover a "good
enough" site for an area. "Disable" usually
provides quicker searches.
Select "Enable" or "Disable". Selecting
"Enable" will force the radio to "look back" to
its home system at an interval set by the Time
field. This "look back" only occurs if the radio
is idle. If the radio "sees" the home site and it
meets search (roam) criteria, it will attempt to
register back to its home site.
Enter from 10 to 32,000 (in seconds). If the
Look Back field is set to enable, this sets
interval of time when the look back occurs.
Note: Look Back Timer will not begin until all
local neighbors are collected from the current
registered site.
