FAILSOFT OPERATION (TRUNKED
SYSTEMS ONLY)
This feature is programmed by your authorized
Motorola dealer.
The "failsoft" system ensures continual radio
communications capability during a trunked
system failure. Your radio will automatically go
into failsoft operation, if the central trunking
controller fails for any reason. While in failsoft
operation, your radio will transmit and receive
on a predetermined frequency on a
conventional mode. When the trunked system
returns to normal operation, the radio will
automatically leave the failsoft operation and
return to trunked operation.
During failsoft operation,
You will hear a faint "beeping" sound every
1
ten seconds.
Your radio becomes unsquelched.
