Display Peer Location

(Radio Wide, Location)

HGDefinitionMob%26Port.jpg

Enables the radio, upon receiving an ASTRO voice transmission, to show the location coordinates of the transmitting (peer) radio in the Location Display Format, and possibly its relative distance and bearing in the selected Distance Unit (see also Send Location to Peer). DotGreen.png This feature still operates when Scan Mode is active; therefore, the radio shows the peer location coordinates in landed scan mode. This feature applies on a radio-wide basis.

The "Mixed Mode" Rx Voice / Signal Type allows a radio to receive both ASTRO and Non-ASTRO signaling types; however, only ASTRO voice streams encode location coordinate data.

 

Only ASTRO radio-to-radio voice transmissions support encoding the location coordinates in the voice stream, which means Conventional Pages and Selective Calls support this feature, however, DVRS, phone mode and other infrastructure-dependent features do not support this feature.

 

If the radio's GPS receiver is inactive (either because Location Enable is disabled, or User Selectable Location Enable is enabled and the radio-user has turned OFF the GPS feature with DotRed.png Location button-press or DotRed.png Location menu-selection), the radio does not display the relative distance / bearing of the transmitting radio as its own location is unknown.

 

When the location coordinates in the received voice stream are marked as "stale" (past a certain threshold since the last location update), the radio provides a visual indication that the transmitting radio's location data is stale.

 

When the radio receives a voice transmission that does not contain location coordinates, the radio provides a visual indication that the transmitting radio's location is unknown.

 

If the voice transmission is terminated while location coordinates appear on the display, this information remains for the End of Voice Timer duration.
