Configuration using KPG-89D• Configuring the Fleet (Refer to FPRG .12.1General 1 tab - Fleet.)• Configuring the ID (Refer to FPRG 6.12.1 General1 tab - ID.)22.9.2 Unit ID Encode BlockThe Unit ID Encode Block is the FleetSync ID range tomake a call.You can limit the FleetSync range using KPG-89D. Youcan use the FleetSync ID registered in the ID List even ifit is outside the Unit ID Encode Block range.Transceivers without the Unit ID Encode Block functioncan call all transceivers.Following are available FleetSync IDs.Table 22-20 Available FleetSync IDs! Configuration using KPG-89D• Configuring the Unit ID Encode Block (Refer toFPRG 6.12.1 General 1 tab - Unit ID EncodeBlock.)22.9.3 Interfleet CallThis function allows a user to make a call using theFleetSync ID having a different Fleet number.The user can inhibit making a call to the FleetSync IDhaving the different Fleet number by disabling theInterfleet Call function using KPG-89D.
