Failsoft Operation (Trunked Systems
Only)
Note:
Failsoft capability can be programmed in the
codeplug.
The failsoft system ensures that you will continue to
have radio communications capability in case of trunked
system failure. During trunked operation, if the central
trunking controller fails, the radio automatically
switches to "failsoft" operation according to predefined
codeplug programming. Thus, you radio display shows
Failsoft Mode or Failsoft Personality Mode (see display).
In " failsoft" operation your radio can transmit and
receive on a conventional predetermined frequency, as
opposed to trunked mode. When you are in failsoft
operation, you hear a faint beeping sound every ten
seconds, your display shows the failsoft group and FS if
the radio has been programmed for failsoft.
If the radio has been programmed for system
Failsoft (i.e one failsoft frequency for all talkgoups in the
system), then the display shows the system and FS.
