INDICATORS
Figure 3 - Dual Format PCS Display
The 4-digit LIQUID CRYSTAL DISPLAY (LCD) uses
the two digits on the left side to indicate the System number
and the two digits on the right side to indicate the
Group/Channel number. In addition there are 9 status indi-
cators.
LCD backlighting can be programmed to turn on any-
time a button or key is pressed. It will remain on for a
programmable length of time after the button or key is
released. Backlighting is programmed on a per Group/Chan-
nel basis or it may be programmed to remain off at all times.
Each radio that is programmed with backlighting may also
be programmed to remain on or off when the PTT bar is
pressed.
System And Group/Channel Indicators
The SYStem display indicates the
number of the current EDACS, GE-
MARC or Conventional system se-
lected.
The GRP (Group) display indicates
the number of the current Group in an
EDACS or GE-MARC System. The
12
GRP icon is suppressed while operat-
ing from a Conventional System, but
the field is still used to display the
Channel selected.
