Trunking System Controls

• Busy Override
When a talkgroup call is placed in a SmartZone™ system and the system is not
able to obtain voice channels at all necessary sites, a busy tone will be generated.
If so programmed in the zone manager and through the radio service software,
you may override this busy by performing the following steps:
1. Press the PTT Switch; a busy indication is received.
2. Release the PTT Switch.
3. Press and hold the PTT Switch a second time. The busy tones are heard
again. After a few seconds, a busy-override chirp will be generated (if so
programmed), and the radio will send in a busy-override request.
4. The talkgroup call will be placed at all sites that have voice channel
resources available. Other sites will be added to the call as channels
become available. Note: Realize that not all members of the talkgroup
will be able to hear a call when a busy override is requested.
• Dispatcher-Interrupt
The dispatcher-interrupt feature allows the dispatcher to interrupt your radio
and place you in a Private Conversation call with the dispatcher.
1. When your radio receives a dispatcher-interrupt call, you will hear a
repeating sequence of four, short, medium-pitched tones until you
answer the call. The display will show "DISP INTERRUPT" on the first
line and "PLEASE WAIT" on the second line. The green LED will also flash
to announce that a call is being received.
2. When the second line displays the ID
of the dispatcher that has initiated
the dispatcher-interrupt, press the
PTT Switch and converse in the
normal manner with the dispatcher.
3. When you are finished with your conversation, hang up by pressing
The radio will return to the home display.
