New ALE Features

As you scroll through the directory, you will see DIR for stations that can be added, and ADDED for those already added. If the station you want to add to the group is not in the directory:

MOTOROLA

DIR BU_

!" Enter the new station using the keypad. If you make a mistake, scroll to the desired position using <--(F2) and/or -->(F3), or clear (CLR (F4)) the whole entry and start again.

!" When ready, press SAVE (F1) to store the new station in the directory.

Now you can add it to the group by pressing ADD (F1).

Transmitting AnyCalls

SAVE <-- --> CLR

MOTOROLA

BUD

ADD <-- --> OK

An AnyCall is a general broadcast which your radio uses to simultaneously establish links with other stations. An AnyCall can also include a message.

If so required, you can set your radio so that it cannot send

AnyCalls.

Note

AnyCall is somewhat similar to AllCall, except that it requests responses from the other stations and therefore it can be used to detect new stations. Another difference is that you can also select the channel on which the AnyCall will be transmitted (alternatively, you can let the radio select automatically the channel).

When radios in other nets have their MultiNet feature enabled,

AnyCalls may also reach these radios. See details on page 11.

Note

You can send three types of AnyCalls (see also description of addressing modes on pages 6 to 11):

•General: the address sent by your radio is @@?. This is a simultaneous call addressed to all the stations.

•Selective: you specify the last character of the address. This is a simultaneous call addressed only to the stations whose names (addresses) end with a character you specify.

MICOM-2ES/2RS/2TS ALE specifications

Motorola MICOM-2ES/2RS/2TS ALE is a sophisticated communication system designed for critical and emergency communication applications. The system is part of Motorola’s esteemed MICOM range, known for its ruggedness and reliability in challenging environments. ALE, or Automatic Link Establishment, is a crucial feature of the MICOM series, enabling efficient and automated establishment of radio links between devices, which is essential for operations where timely communication is a matter of urgency.

One of the main features of the MICOM-2 series is its robust ALE capabilities, allowing operators to automatically find the best frequency for communication based on current conditions. This dynamic frequency selection not only enhances the reliability of the communication link but also minimizes the possibility of interference from other signals, which can be critical in emergency situations.

The MICOM-2ES, 2RS, and 2TS models feature advanced digital signal processing technologies that optimize audio clarity and reception. This ensures that communication remains clear even in noisy environments, which is a pivotal factor in emergency response scenarios. With a digital signal processor onboard, the system is capable of filtering out unwanted noise and enhancing the quality of the transmitted audio.

These models support multiple modes of operation, including both simplex and duplex communications. Such versatility allows users to adapt the system to various communication needs, augmenting its effectiveness in a range of operation scenarios. Furthermore, the MICOM-2 series is compatible with various antenna configurations, enhancing the operational range and flexibility of the system.

User-friendliness is another hallmark of the MICOM-2ES/2RS/2TS ALE systems, as they feature an intuitive user interface that simplifies operation, allowing for quick and efficient communication in high-pressure situations. Emergency responders and military personnel benefit greatly from such ease of use, leading to faster response times and improved overall coordination.
