Radio Communications 4 - 19
Out of Range Indicator
An out of range indicator can b e set by scannin g Enable Bee p on Reconn ect Attempt on page 4-15 and extending
the time using the Reconnect Attempt Interval on page 4-16.
For example, with Beep on Reconnect Attempt disabled while the scanner loses radio connection when it is taken
out of range, the scanner attempts to reconnect silently during the time interval set by scanning a Reconnect
Attempt Interval.
When Beep on Reconnect Attempt is enabled, the scanner emits 5 high beeps every 5 seconds while the
reconnection attempt is in progress. If the Reconnect Attempt Interval is adjusted to a longer period of time, such
as 30 minutes, the scanner emits 5 high beeps every 5 seconds for 30 minutes providing an out of range indicator.
