Intercept Tone

This is a siren-like tone (alternating high and low tones) which indicates the following no access and error conditions:

No Access - If this tone sounds shortly after pressing the PTT switch and “NO ACCES” is displayed, the radio system could not be accessed, perhaps because of an out-of-range condition (see “Operation At Extended Range” on page 54). Once this tone sounds, no more access attempts are made until the PTT switch is released and then pressed again. This condition is indi- cated only with LTR-Net and LTR calls.

Time-Out Timer - If this tone sounds after the transmitter has been keyed for an extended period and “TIMEOUT” is displayed, the transmitter has been disabled by the Time-Out Timer feature (see page 26).

Transmit Inhibit - If this tone sounds as soon as the PTT switch is pressed with an LTR-Net or LTR system selected and “TX INHIB” is displayed, the transmitter has been disabled by the Transmit Inhibit feature (see page 40).

Receive-Only Group - If this tone sounds as soon as the push- to-talk switch is pressed and “TX DISBL” is displayed, the group is receive-only (see page 25).

Proceed (Clear-To-Talk) Tone - This is a short single or double tone which sounds after the push-to-talk switch is pressed to indicate when talking can begin (see page 25).

Key Press Tone - This is a short tone that indicates when an option switch is pressed.

Wrap-Around Tone - This is a two-pitch tone that indicates that the highest or lowest channel was displayed and that wrap-around has occurred.
