8TK-863GIf there is no system to be accessed, an intercept tonesounds, the mode is terminated, and the transceiver returnsto the first system. If the access is successful, the mode isterminated, and the searched system becomes the new se-lected system (If during scanning, the scan stops). TranspondThis feature can be programmed to turn on and off foreach group. If the ID of the group for which transpond isenabled is received, two data messages (transmit ID andturn-off code) are automatically transmitted if the PTT but-ton is not pressed as a response within the time set (0 to300 seconds in 1-second increments). If the PTT button ispressed within the time, the transpond is not preformed. Transmit InhibitThe transceiver can be programmed with a transmit in-hibit block of ID codes. If an ID code within this block isdecoded the preset time before the PTT button is pressed,transmission is inhibited. The BUSY indicator lights and abusy tone sounds until the PTT button is released to indicatethat transmission is not possible (except clear-to talk mode). ARQ ModeIt affects Trunking mode only. Automatic RepeatreQuest (ARQ) mode is a manner to minimize the air trafficof data communication. Also, it enables to occupy thetrunking repeater channel for the data communication pe-riod.6. Audible User Feedback TonesThe transceiver outputs various combinations of tones tonotify the user of the transceiver operating state. The maintones are listed below.The high tone is 1477Hz, the mid tone is 941Hz, and thelow tone is 770Hz. Power On ToneThis tone is output when the transceiver is turned on.(The high tone is output for 500ms.) Alert ToneThis tone is output when the transceiver is TX inhibitionfor TOT, and PLL unlocked. It is output until the PTT buttonis released. Password Agreement ToneWhen the correct password is entered, the tone sounds.The optional feature’s control tone can be set to yes or no. PTT Release ToneWhen you release the PTT switch, the PTT release tonesounds.OPERATING FEATURES Busy ToneSounds in LTR mode, when you cannot use a repeater(system busy or TX inhibit). Sounds in conventional mode,when busy channel lockout is functioning. You can selectyes or no for the optional feature’s warning tone. Key Press Tone [A]Sounds when a key is pressed. For toggle keys, soundswhen toggle function is turned on (key press tone [B]sounds when it is turned off). You can select yes or no forthe optional feature’s control tone. Key Press Tone [B]Sounds when a key is pressed. For toggle keys, soundswhen the toggle function is turned off (key press tone [A]sounds when it is turned on). You can select yes or no forthe optional feature’s control tone. Key Press Tone [C]Sounds when a key is pressed. Also sounds when stor-ing data, adding a DTMF code to memory, and when chang-ing test mode settings. You can select yes or no for theoptional feature’s control tone. Key Input Error ToneSounds when a key is pressed but that key cannot beused. You can select yes or no for the optional feature’swarning tone. Roll Over ToneSounds at the smallest system/group. You can selectyes or no for the optional feature’s control tone. Transpond ToneSounds when an individual call with the correct LTR ID isreceived. Intercept ToneThis tone indicates that the transceiver is out of range. Itindicates that the PTT button is pressed, and transmissionhas started, but the repeater cannot be connected and talk-ing is not possible. It is output until the PTT button is re-leased. (The mid tone and low tone are output alternately in200ms intervals.) Delay ToneThis tone is output when the PTT button is pressed andthe repeater is accessed three times or more to indicateconnection with the repeater is delayed. This tone is thesame as the busy tone. (It is not output of clear to talk hasbeen set to yes.)
