Transmitting (cont.)
Trunked Systems
1. Turn the radio on and select the desired trunked zone
and mode (see “Selecting a Zone and Mode”).
2. (SECURENET-equipped radios only). If the mode is
programmed as neither secure-only nor clear-only,
turn the two-position concentric switch to the desired
position ( = SECURENET voice transmission; =
clear voice transmission).
3. Press and hold the PTT switch on the side of the
radio and speak slowly and clearly into the
microphone area. The red LED will be lit while the
radio is transmitting. When your transmission is
completed, release the PTT to listen.
Notes:
• If you hear a busy signal (a low-frequency “bah-
bah-bah-bah”), release the PTT switch and wait
for a call-back tone (sounds like “di-di-dit”). When
you hear the call-back tone you will have three
seconds to press the PTT switch, allowing you to
make your call without getting another busy
signal.
• If a continuous talk-prohibit tone is heard when
the PTT switch is pressed, transmission is not
possible. The radio may be out of range; or
(SECURENET-equipped only) the two-position
concentric switch may be in the incorrect
position for that mode; for instance, the
particular mode might be slaved encrypted voice
and the switch set to the unencrypted voice
position.
• Avoid blocking the noise-cancelling port during
transmitting so as to take full advantage of the
noise-cancelling feature.
• Transmissions on modes (talkgroups) that are
programmed as neither secure-only nor clear-
only can be changed from clear to SECURENET
by turning the two-position concentric switch and
pressing the PTT switch. However, you cannot
change from SECURENET to clear during a
transmission; you must wait until the
transmission is ended before changing to clear
operation.
• You will be able to change from clear operation
to SECURENET operation, but
not
from
SECURENET to clear during a call.
• If no secure voice channels are currently
available for a SECURENET transmission that you
wish to make, the display will show “NO
SECURE,” and you must switch to a clear mode
or wait until a secure voice channel is available.
