The Site Alias Page

(Trunking System)

The Site Alias page allows you to view or define radio-user-friendly aliases that identify either Trunking Systems or individual sites within those Systems that a radio may encounter as it roams across sites, Trunking Systems or even Wide Area Communications Networks (WACNs). Aliases can also identify calls (via PTT IDs) received from radios outside of the radio's selected (home) Trunking System. Only Site Aliases defined in the radio-user's currently-selected Trunking System are available to the radio.

The Site Alias Type determines what the Site Alias Text is being assigned to, either a Trunking System or a site within a System.

A Trunking System is always defined by its Home RAS WACN Number and System Number, while a site is defined by specific combinations of its Home RAS WACN Number, System Number, RFSS Alias Number and Site ID, depending on the current Trunking System's Coverage Type and System Type.

Viewing the current Site Alias and its corresponding received signal strength indicator (RSSI), or changing the current site, is radio-user activated with a Site Display / Srch button-press.

A radio-user activated Site Lock / Unlock button-press or a Site menu-selection can view or change the current site lock status.

Individual Trunking Systems are referenced to a Trunking Personality. These Trunking Systems settings can then become functional for all channel types within that Trunking Personality.
