28 Trunked Radio Features Operation
(cont.)
Failsoft Operation
The “failsoft” system ensures that you will
continue to have radio communications capability in
the event of trunked system failure. During trunked
operation, the radio will automatically go into failsoft
operation if the central trunking controller fails for any
reason. While in failsoft, your radio will transmit and
r e c e i v e o n a p r e d e t e r m i n e d f r e q u e n c y i n a
conventional, as opposed to trunked, mode. When
the trunked system returns to normal operation, the
radio will automatically leave failsoft operation and
return to trunked operation.
When the radio is in failsoft operation, you will
hear a faint “beeping” sound every ten seconds, and
the radio will become unsquelched. At the same time,
the display will alternate between showing “FAILSOFT”
and the current active trunked system.
