ALE Programming

ALE Options Configuration

This menu enables you to configure the following ALE options:

•PTOT PTT Timeout: the time (in minutes) which elapses between the moment you release the PTT button, until the ALE disconnects the link. The allowed range is 1 to 10 minutes.

•EXAL

•ALRT

External Alarm: activate/deactivate the radio external alarm when a call is received.

Alert tone: enable/disable the generation of an alert tone whenever a link is established.

•TOT Accept Link Time-out Time: the radio can be configured to disconnect the link automatically if neither the PTT, nor any other key is pressed within 30 seconds from the reception of a call. If Accept Link TOT is set to NO, the received call is accepted immediately and automatically.

•MLQA

•QCAL

Minimum LQA Score: determines the minimum acceptable LQA (Link Quality Analysis) score allowed when trying to establish a link on a specific channel.

If the minimum score is not achieved when the radio attempts to establish a link in the ALE mode, the radio will try to establish a link on the scanned channel with the next best LQA score. At the end of this process, a link will be established on the scan channel with the best LQA score. If the call is made on a specific channel, the radio ignores the minimum LQA score check.

The allowed range of LQA scores is 0 to 100%. When selecting the minimum LQA score, remember that in accordance with the ALE standards, the maximum LQA score (assigned for receiving an optimum sounding is 70%), and the minimum score is 30%. The score given to a station that did not send any sounding or a station whose sounding has not been received is also 30%.

Quick Call: enable/disable initiating a call to the last called address by pressing the MIC PTT button twice in rapid sequence (double pressing).

•AADR Automatic address: enable/disable automatically adding the source addresses of incoming calls to the ALE directory.

If the directory is full, new addresses will not be added.
