108 Trunked Radio Features Operation (cont.)

Dynamic Regrouping (cont.)

Select Enable and Disable

The dispatcher may classify regrouped radios into either of two categories: “select enabled,” and “select disabled.”

•Select-enabled radios are free to make mode changes to any available mode, including the dynamic regrouping mode.

•Select-disabled radios cannot change modes, since the dispatcher has specifically chosen to force the radio to remain in the dynamic mode.

Note: Scan, Phone, and Private Conversation cannot be selected while the radio is select disabled.

Caller ID Display

The Caller-ID feature will momentarily display the 6-digit ID or alias name of the radio that initiated a talkgroup call, call alert, or a private call. Two options are available: Caller ID and Aliased Caller ID.

1.Caller ID will display the 6-digit ID of the radio which initiates a group or individual call.

2.Aliased caller ID will display the 6-digit ID of the radio which initiates a group or individual call. If the ID of the radio which initiates the call is in the pre-programmed call list of your radio, your radio will display the alias name instead of the 6-digit ID.

Caller ID When an Emergency Call is Received

If the emergency receive indication is enabled in your radio and an emergency call is received, your radio will alternate the display between the ID (or alias name) of the radio that initiated the emergency call, the emergency received display, and the talkgroup (Zone/Chan assignment).

“ID: 700001” “EMER RECEIVED” “POLICE NORTH”

Notes:

•Only the ID of the radio that initiates the conversation will be displayed on your radio. If other radio users continue the conversation without allowing the channel to drop, their IDs will not be displayed on your radio.

•This feature is not available on Type I Trunked Systems.
