Additional Performance EnhancementThe following performance enhancements are someof the latest creations designed to enhance thesecurity, quality and efficiency of the radios.

Dynamic System Resilience (DSR)

DSR ensures the radio system is seamlesslyswitched to a backup master site dynamically in caseof system failure. DSR also provides additionalindication e.g. failure detection, fault recovery, andredundancy within the system to address to the userin need. Mechanisms related to the Integrated Voiceand Data (IV&D) or data centric are all supported byDSR.

CrossTalk Prevention

This feature prevents crosstalk scenarios fromhappening, especially when a wideband antenna is

used. This feature allows the adjustment of theinternal SSI clock rate of the radio. This subsequentlyreduces the possibility of radio frequency interferingspurs and prevents the issues of crosstalk.

Conventional Talkgroup and Radio ScanEnhancements

A few enhancements have been made to theConventional Talkgroup at the system. Theseenhancements improve the Scan feature operationsignificantly when multiple agencies are using asingle conventional radio frequency channel. Theseenhancements allow users to use Selective Squelchto operate on only the subset of talkgroups that arerelevant to the users rather than all talkgroups on thechannel. These Scan improvements have been madeto eliminate the audio holes that were present and toturn on the busy LED when activity is present on thechannel. Mixed Vote Scan and StandardConventional Scan configurations are supported.Priority Operation is also supported.

Up to 30 different talkgroups can be supported usingconventional channels. A maximum of four talkgroupscan be supported when Vote Scan channels arebeing used.

Smart PTT is supported with this enhancement asSmart PTT prevents users from transmitting whileother users are on the channel.

Note:User Selectable Talkgroups are notcompatible with this Conventional TalkgroupEnhancement.

Global Positioning System / GlobalNavigation Satellite System

The Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) in theradio uses information from the Global PositioningSystem (GPS) to determine the approximategeographical location of your radio. The geographicallocation is expressed as latitude and longitude orMilitary Grid Reference System (MGRS) format perrequest from customers.

Note:This feature is addressed as GPS across themanual as the naming convention of thebuttons and strings remain the same as thelegacy feature of GPS.

The availability and accuracy of this locationinformation (and the amount of time that it takes tocalculate it) varies depending on the environment inwhich you are using the GPS feature.

For example, GPS location fixes are difficult to obtainindoors, in covered locations, between high buildings,or in situations where you have not established aclear broad view of the sky.

Once GPS is enabled, the radio displays the GPSicon on the screen. The dispatcher can alwaysrequest the system to determine the real-time locationcoordinates of the radio.

GPS Operation

The GPS technology uses radio signals from earthorbiting satellites, to establish the locationcoordinates, maximizing your view of clearunobstructed sky is essential for optimumperformance.

Adv

ance

d Fe

atur

es

54

English

Where adequate signals from multiple satellites arenot available (usually because you cannot establish aview of a wide area of the sky), the GPS feature ofyour radio will not work. Such situations include butare not limited to:

• Underground locations• Inside of buildings, trains, or other covered

vehicles• Under any other metal or concrete roof or

structure• Between tall buildings or under dense tree-cover• In temperature extremes outside the operating

limits of your radio

Even where location information can be calculated insuch situations, it may take longer to do so, and yourlocation estimate may not be as accurate. Therefore,in any emergency situation, always report yourlocation to your dispatcher.

Keep in mind that the accuracy of the locationinformation and the time it takes to obtain it variesdepending upon circumstances, particularly the abilityto receive signals from an adequate number ofsatellites.

Note:Even where adequate signals from multiplesatellites are available, your GPS feature onlyprovides an approximate location, usuallywithin 10 meters from your actual location, butsometimes farther away.

The satellites used by the GPS feature are controlledby the U.S. government and are subject to changesimplemented in accordance with the Department ofDefense GPS user policy and the Federal RadioNavigation Plan. These changes may affect theperformance of the GPS feature on your radio.

GPS Performance Enhancement

Sometimes, the GPS feature may be unable tocomplete a location calculation successfully. You thensee a message indicating that your radio cannotconnect to enough visible satellites.

To maximize the ability of your radio to determine afix, take note of the following guidelines:

• For your initial fix, hold the radio in the faceposition.

Peer-Location on the Display (ASTRO Conventionalonly)

This feature is only available for radio-to-radio voicetransmissions, dispatch call and selective call inconventional ASTRO system. For radio-to-radiotransmission, in order to allow the radio to show peer-location, the voice should be directly sent from oneradio to another radio without passing through anyinfrastructure facility such as repeaters, phone orDVRS system. Both the transmitting radio andreceiving radio must be configured to enable them tosend and/or receive the GPS coordinates. You cancheck with your nearest qualified technician for moredetails.

Note:If the receiving radio is operating in a MixedMode channel, only if its voice transmission isvia conventional ASTRO system then it canreceive the location coordinates of its peers.

This feature is also operable in a Scan Active channelor Scan Talkback channel.

Upon receiving a voice transmission with GPScoordinates enabled on the receiving radio, thedisplay shows the coordinates available in full or inshort coordinates. There are two different formats

available. Refer to the following list for the detailsshown in the Peer-Location quick text. Consult youragent to pick the best format to configure to yourradio.

Full locationcoordinates

• PTT ID (This is optional.)• Longitude and latitude• Relative distance or

direction.

Short locationcoordinates

• PTT ID (This is optional.)• Longitude and latitude

Geofence (ASTRO 25 Trunking System)Geofence is a virtual perimeter based on the GPS todefine a geographical area on earth.

When the radio enters the predefined Geofence area,your radio receives the Dynamic Regroup commandfrom the system and immediately connects to aDynamic Regroup talkgroup. The radio display showsthe new selected Dynamic Regrouped talkgroup withgreen intelligent light for your attention.

Voice Announcement is also available to support thisfeature. Check with your nearest qualified technician

Any new text messages received at Geofence shallhave its content displayed immediately on the radiodisplay.

Note:If the radio is set up in DVRS, only mobileradio is supported for this feature.

Entering the Geofence Area

The Voice Announcement and TMS display in thisfeature are optional. They must be configured toenable you to hear and see these indicators.

When the radio enters a Geofence area, the radioimmediately sends a message ACK back to thesystem.

The radio searches the current zone for the channelwith same talkgroup assigned as the DynamicTalkgroup and also with same system ID of currenttrunk system. Once matched, the radio display showsthe first matched and connected channel alias.

If there is no channel with matched Talkgroup ID andtrunk system ID, the radio display shows the channelalias of <DYNAMIC talkgroup>.

Once the radio is connected, you hear a dynamicregroup tone, the radio display shows <DYNAMICchannel> with temporary green color intelligentbacklight and you hear a Voice Announcement.

Note:When the radio loss the GPS signal the GPSicon blinks and the radio sounds two high-pitched tones repetitively to indicate GPS failsto operate. The radio display shows redintelligent light.

Note:If the first matched channel is not configuredwith Voice Announcement, no VoiceAnnouncement is played.

The system sends a message to your radio. Theradio display shows a direct text message contentwithout any user operation. This message indicatesyou are currently present in a Geofence area. ThisTMS remains open on the display until user pressesexit/home to exit this screen.

Note:If there is another incoming text messagebefore you exit the previous message, the

message screen shall be refreshed to showthe latest message.

The following procedure guides you to exit the textmessage received.

Press the Menu Select button below Exit or toreturn to Home screen.

The other operations are the same as normaldynamic regroup command.

When the radio exits the Geofence area, your radioreverts to original channel or newly assignedtalkgroup. The radio display shows the new channeltogether with Voice Announcement to indicate thechanges. Voice Announcement of the new channelonly works if that channel is configured with VoiceAnnouncement.

Trunking System ControlsOperating in Failsoft System

The failsoft system ensures continuous radiocommunications during a trunked system failure. If atrunking system fails completely, the radio goes intofailsoft operation and automatically switches to itsfailsoft channel.

During failsoft operation, your radio transmits andreceives in conventional operation on apredetermined frequency. You hear a medium-pitched tone and the display shows Failsoft.

When the trunking system returns to normaloperation, your radio automatically leaves failsoftoperation and returns to trunked operation.

To continue, in Failsoft, to communicate with othertalkgroups, refer to the following procedure.

1 Rotate the Mode Knob to change to a differentrepeater frequency.

2 Press the PTT button to talk, and release thebutton to listen.

Out-of-Range Radio

When your radio goes out of the range of the system,it can no longer lock onto a control channel.

You hear a low-pitched tone and/or the display showsthe currently selected zone/channel combination andOut of range. Your radio remains in this out-of-range condition until it locks onto a control channel, itlocks onto a failsoft channel, or it is turned off.
