Switch Selections

You should not duplicate a function on multiple controls, i.e., on more than one button, on more than one switch or on a button and a switch. This may cause incorrect radio operation.

These selections are model / option dependent on a per radio basis, and apply to Conventional and Trunking communications modes (except where noted).

Switch Selections:

This selection is only valid in the CPS, and/or available to the RADIO-USER:

Blank

(Intended for controls that are not in use.)

Channel Select

When selected, always available to the radio-user, and  therefore not dependent on any CPS feature or selection.

This selection can not be set concurrently on the Rotary Switch, Concentric Switch and Toggle Switch.

This selection must be assigned for both Conventional and Trunking communications modes and for all positions of the chosen switch.

This is not a valid selection for the Two Position or Three Position Toggle switch, or on the concentric switch when Zone Bank Up or Zone Bank Down is set on a programmable button.

When Conventional Concentric Switch "Position A" is set to Channel Select, the Conventional Concentric Switch "Position B" and the Trunking Concentric Switch "Position A"and "Position B" are automatically set to "Channel Select" and become view-only. Therefore, only Conventional Concentric Switch "Position A" can then be modified.

When Conventional Toggle Switch "Position A" is set to Channel Select, the Conventional Toggle Switch "Position B" and "Position C" and the Trunking Toggle Switch "Position A", "Position B" and "Position C" are automatically set to "Channel Select" and become view-only. Therefore only Conventional Toggle Switch "Position A" can then be modified.

Clear Tx Select

This selection is only available from the Conventional or Trunking Concentric "Position B" field.

When any one of the Conventional Secure / Clear Strapping fields is set to "Select" for the radio's current channel.

When any one of the Trunking Secure / Clear Strapping fields is set to "Select" for the radio's current channel.

This selection is only valid for Conventional and Trunking Concentric Switch "Position B". Secure Tx Select must be selected on Conventional and Trunking Concentric Switch "Position A" for this selection to be valid.

When Secure Tx Select is selected on the Conventional Concentric Switch "Position A", the Trunking Concentric Switch "Position A" is automatically set to "Secure Tx Select" and becomes view-only and the Conventional and Trunking Concentric Switch "Position B" are automatically set to Clear Tx Select and also become view-only. Therefore only Conventional Concentric Switch "Position A" can then be modified.

This must be configured this way in order for Secure communication to occur.

Keypad / Controls Lock

When the Radio Ergonomics Wide, Rotary Switch Lock Enable field is enabled (all models), or

when the Radio Ergonomics Wide, Side Buttons Lock Enable field is enabled (all models), or

when the radio has a keypad (model-specific).

This selection must not be set concurrently on both "Position A" and "Position B" of the Concentric Switch, or on all positions of the Toggle Switch; to do so would make the Buttons, Menu Items, and Rotary Knob inoperable by the radio-user.

Mute

Concentric Switch only.

When the Radio Wide, Enhanced Mute Tones Operation field is not disabled.

PL Disable

When operating in Conventional communications mode.

Scan

When the Scan Type is not set to "Voting Scan", and

when the Conventional Personality, Scan List Selection field is not set to "None", and

when the Conventional Personality, Automatic Scan field is disabled for the radio's current channel.

When the Trunking Personality, Scan List Selection field is not set to "None", and

When the Trunking Personality, Automatic Scan field is disabled for the radio's current channel.

This selection can not be programmed concurrently on Buttons, Switches and Menu Items; however, it can be set concurrently on Portable and Accessory Buttons.

This selection can be set on the Conventional Concentric Switch (one position only) or the Conventional Toggle Switch (two positions maximum) but not both. The same constraint applies to Trunking switches.

This selection can be set concurrently on the Conventional and Trunking Concentric and / or Toggle Switches, noting the previous constraint.

Scan List Programming

When the Conventional Personality, Scan List Selection field is not set to "None" for the radio's current channel.

When the Trunking Personality, Scan List Selection field is not set to "None" for the radio's current channel.

Secure Tx Select

 This selection is only available from the Conventional or Trunking Concentric "Position A" field.

When any one of the Conventional Secure / Clear Strapping fields is set to "Select" for the radio's current channel.

When any one of the Trunking Secure / Clear Strapping fields is set to "Select" for the radio's current channel.

This selection is only valid for Conventional and Trunking Concentric Switch "Position A".

When Secure Tx Select is selected on the Conventional Concentric Switch "Position A", the Trunking Concentric Switch "Position A" is automatically set to "Secure Tx Select" and becomes view-only and the Conventional and Trunking Concentric Switch "Position B" are automatically set to Clear Tx Select and also become view-only. Therefore only Conventional Concentric Switch "Position A" can then be modified.

This must be configured this way in order for Secure communication to occur.

Talkaround / Direct

When operating in Conventional communications mode, and

when the Conventional Personality, Direct/Talkaround field is enabled for the radio's current channel.

This selection can not be set concurrently on Buttons, Switches and Menu Items; however, it can be set concurrently on Portable and Accessory Buttons.

This selection can only be set on one switch.

Tx Inhibit

This selection is only available from the Conventional or Trunking Concentric "Position A" field.

When Tx Inhibit is selected on Conventional Concentric Switch "Position A", the Trunking Concentric Switch "Position A" is automatically set to "Tx Inhibit" and becomes view-only. Conventional and Trunking Concentric Switch "Position B" are automatically set to Tx Inhibit Disabled and also become view-only. Therefore only Conventional Concentric Switch "Position A" can then be modified.

This selection can not be set concurrently with the Tx Inhibit Menu Item.

Tx Inhibit Disabled

This selection is only available from the Conventional or Trunking Concentric "Position B" field.

When Tx Inhibit is selected on switch "Position A" only (for Conventional or Trunking switch selections) the other switch "Position A" (Conventional or Trunking) is automatically set to Tx Inhibit and becomes read-only. All other switch positions for that switch are automatically set to "Tx Inhibit Disabled" and also become read-only. Therefore only "Position A" can then be modified.

Tx Inhibit must be selected on Conventional and Trunking "Position A" for this selection to be valid.

This selection can not be set concurrently with the Tx Inhibit Menu Item.

When Tx Inhibit is selected on Conventional Concentric Switch "Position A", the Trunking Concentric Switch "Position A" is automatically set to "Tx Inhibit" and becomes view-only. Conventional and Trunking Concentric Switch "Position B" are automatically set to Tx Inhibit Disabled and also become view-only. Therefore only Conventional Concentric Switch "Position A" can then be modified.

Tx Low Power

When selected, always available to the radio-user, and  therefore not dependent on any CPS feature or selection.

Unprogrammed

(Intended for controls that are not in use.)

Zone Select

When selected, always available to the radio-user, and  therefore not dependent on any CPS feature or selection.

This selection must be set for both Conventional and Trunking communications modes and for all positions of the selected switch.

This selection can not be set concurrently on the Rotary Switch, Concentric Switch and Toggle Switch.

This is not a valid selection for the Concentric Switch when Zone Bank Up or Zone Bank Down is set on a Button.

When assigning  Zone Bank Up or Zone Bank Down to a programmable button, Zone Select is automatically assigned to the Three Position A/B/C Toggle switch.

When Conventional Concentric Switch "Position A" is set to Zone Select, the Trunking Concentric Switch "Position A" and "Position B" and the Conventional Concentric Switch "Position B" are automatically set to "Zone Select" and become view-only. Therefore only Conventional Concentric Switch "Position A" can then be modified.

When Conventional Toggle Switch "Position A" is set to Zone Select, the Trunking Toggle Switch "Position A", "Position B", and "Position C" and the Conventional Toggle Switch "Position B" and "Position C" are automatically set to "Zone Select" and become view-only. Therefore only Conventional Toggle Switch "Position A" can then be modified.
