Alert Tone Indications (cont.)
• Call Alert™ (Page) Received – A group of four medium-pitched tones every five
seconds indicates that your radio has received a Call Alert page.
• C a l l A l e r t ™ ( P a g e ) S e n t – A single medium-pitched tone (central
acknowledge), followed by a group of four medium-pitched tones indicates that
a Call Alert page sent by your radio has been received by the target radio.
• Private Conversation™ Call Received – A group of two medium-pitched tones
(800MHz radios only) indicates that your radio has received a Private
Conversation call. For all other frequency radios and for enhanced Private
Conversation, this sequence will be repeated ever y five seconds for
approximately 20 seconds
• Trunked System Busy (Trunked Systems Only) – A “bah-bah-bah-bah” tone
when a trunked system is accessed indicates that all available modes are busy
and the radio is in queue for the next available mode.
• Call Back (Trunked Systems Only} – A group of three medium-pitched tones
(di-di-dit) indicates that a talkgroup is now available for your previously
requested transmission.
• Keyfail (SECURENET-Equipped Radios Only) – Indicates when there is a
problem with transmitting in encrypted (SECURENET) operation, due to loss
of the encryption key. If programmed and the key is lost or erased, a group of
six beeps sounds immediately. In addition, if the two-position concentric
switch is in the SECURENET ( ) position: (a) if programmed, and the PTT
switch
is not being pressed, the radio will sound six beeps every 5 to 10
seconds, or (b) if the PTT switch is being pressed, the radio will sound
continuous beeps until the PTT switch is r eleased, after which (if
programmed) it will sound six beeps every 5 to 10 seconds. This will continue
until the two-position concentric switch is moved to the clear (
) position, a
clear-only mode is selected, or the key is reloaded.
• Consecutive medium-pitched tones during a secure transmission
indicate that there is a problem with encrypted (SECURENET)
operation due to loss of the encryption key.
• Six medium-pitched tones every 5 to 10 seconds while the radio is
not transmitting also serve as a reminder that there is a problem
with encrypted (SECURENET) operation. The keyfail reminder will
sound when the radio is in clear-only operation, which can be
selected either by switching to a preprogrammed clear-only mode
or by moving the two-position concentric switch to the clear ( )
position on a secure-/clear-selectable mode.
• Six medium-pitched tones when the radio is first turned on also
indicate that there is a problem with encrypted (SECURENET)
operation.
• Keyfail tones will not sound once the key has been reloaded.
• Clear Operation (SECURENET-Equipped Radios Only) – If the radio is so
programmed, one beep immediately after the PTT switch is pressed will
indicate that your transmission is clear (non-encrypted).
