Inactivity Auto Power Off Timer
This timer begins once the radio is power-on. While the timer is active any user interaction with the
radio resets the timer.
Ignition Auto Power Off Timer
This timer begins once the vehicle key is removed, when the voltage at the ignition sense is
removed. While the timer is active any user interaction with the radio resets the timer. When the
vehicle key is reapplied, the voltage at the ignition is reconnected, this timer is stopped.

Site Selectable Alerts (ASTRO 25)
A Site Selectable Alert (SSA) is an Intelligent Lighting indicator together with audio alert sent to radios
at a site or a few sites to notify the users when there is a special situation that they need to be aware
of.
Your radio supports up to 250 site aliases. Only authorized radios are enabled to send SSA. Upon the
activation of a SSA, the receiving radios display the alert alias and generate the periodic alert tone.
NOTICE: Alert alias, alert tone, and alert period can be preprogrammed. Alert period is the
duration for the radio to repeat the alert tone. An interval of 5 seconds might impact the battery
life of the radio. Check with your dealer or system administrator for more details.
When mixing SSA with received voice audio, the SSA alert is reduced in volume to ensure that
the voice message is still heard clearly. Therefore, it is important that the SSA audio files are
created with clear loud audio to ensure they can still be heard clearly when played at reduced
levels.
