Description

On this screen the beacon signal strength at which the

 

beacon level alarm trips is set.

 

If the tracking signal level falls below the value set here the

 

INTRAC-305 considers the tracking signal receiver to have

 

lost lock on the beacon.

 

Edit the value in the “Set Level” box using the numeric

 

keypad. The & move the cursor.

Note

The only function of the beacon level alarm is to operate a

 

relay for external use. It is not used by the INTRAC algorithm

 

and, when it occurs in isolation without an alarm from the

 

IBR-L, has no effect on the INTRAC operation or mode.
