You will also hear a continuous talk prohibit tone, ifyour call is interrupted, indicating that you shouldrelease the PTT button, for example when the radioreceives an Emergency Call.Switching Between Conventional Analog andDigital ModeEach channel in your radio can be configured as aconventional analog or conventional digital channel.Use the Channel Selector Knob ( ) to switchbetween an analog or a digital channel.AWhen switching from digital to analog mode, certainfeatures are unavailable. Icons for the digital features(such as Messages) reflect this change by appearing‘grayed out’. Disabled features are hidden in themenu.Your radio also has features available in both analogand digital mode. However, the minor differences inthe way each feature works does not affect theperformance of your radio.Note:Your radio also switches between digital andanalog modes during a dual mode scan (see Scan on page 51).Identifying Radio Controls24English
IP Site ConnectThis feature allows your radio to extend conventionalcommunication beyond the reach of a single site, byconnecting to different available sites which areconnected via an Internet Protocol (IP) network.When the radio moves out of range from one site andinto the range of another, it connects to the new site'srepeater to send or receive calls/data transmissions.Depending on your settings, this is doneautomatically or manually.If the radio is set to do this automatically, it scansthrough all available sites when the signal from thecurrent site is weak or when the radio is unable todetect any signal from the current site. It then lockson to the repeater with the strongest Received SignalStrength Indicator (RSSI) value.In a manual site search, the radio searches for thenext site in the roam list that is currently in range (butwhich may not have the strongest signal) and lockson to it.Note:Each channel can only have either Scan orRoam enabled, not both at the same time.Channels with this feature enabled can be added to aparticular roam list. The radio searches the channel(s)in the roam list during the automatic roam operationto locate the best site.A roam list supports a maximum of 16 channels(including the Selected Channel).Note:You cannot manually add or delete an entry tothe roam list. Check with your dealer orsystem administrator for more information.Capacity PlusCapacity Plus is a single-site trunking configuration ofthe MOTOTRBO radio system, which uses a pool ofchannels to support hundreds of users and up to 254Groups. This feature allows your radio to efficientlyutilize the available number of programmed channelswhile in Repeater Mode.You hear a negative indicator tone if you try to accessa feature not applicable to Capacity Plus via aprogrammable button press.Your radio also has features that are available inconventional digital mode, IP Site Connect, CapacityPlus and Linked Capacity Plus. However, the minorIdentifying Radio Controls25English
