SmartZone

The SmartZone
®
feature extends communications beyond the
reach of a single-trunked site (antenna location) when operating
in a SmartZone system. SmartZone units provide expanded
wide-area coverage.
SmartZone automatically switches the radio to a different site
when the current site signal becomes unacceptable. This
usually happens when the vehicle in which the radio is located
is driven out of the range of one site, and into the range of
another.
Under normal conditions, a SmartZone-enabled radio functions
invisibly to the operator. However, the operator does have some
manual controls on the Control Head – the RSSI menu entry.
This button can be used to check, or change, the SmartZone
operation.
Using Site Trunking Feature
If the zone controller loses communication with any site, that
site reverts to site trunking.
The display shows the currently selected zone/channel
combination and SITE TRUNKING.
Note: When this occurs, you can communicate only with
other radios within your trunking site.
Locking and Unlocking a Site
This feature allows your radio to lock onto a specific site and not
roam among wide-area talkgroup sites. This feature should be
used with caution, since it inhibits roaming to another site in a
wide-area system.
Procedure:
Use the preprogrammed Site Lock/Unlock button to toggle the
lock state between locked and unlocked.
OR
Follow the procedure below.
1 > or < to SITE.
2 Press the Menu Select button directly below SITE.
3 Press the Menu Select button directly below LOCK to lock
the site.
OR
Press the Menu Select button directly below UNLK to unlock
the site.
4 The radio saves the new site lock state and returns to the
Home screen.
