Failsoft Operation (Trunked Systems Only)

The “failsoft” system ensures that you will continue

to have radio communications capability in the event of

trunked system failure. During trunked operation, the

radio will automatically go into failsoft operation if the

central trunking controller fails for any reason. While in

failsoft, your radio will transmit and receive on a

predetermined frequency on a conventional, as opposed

to trunked, mode. When the trunked system returns to

normal operation, the radio will automatically leave the

failsoft operation and return to trunked operation.

Clear or SECURENET operation will be determined

by the preprogramming of the selected mode

(talkgroup), if so programmed. Otherwise, transmit

operation will be controlled by the position of the two-

position concentric switch. You

will be able

to change

from SECURENET operation to clear operation, or from

clear to SECURENET, during a call.

When the radio is in failsoft operation, you will hear

a faint “beeping” sound every ten seconds, and the

radio will become unsquelched. At the same time, the

display will alternate between showing “FAILSOFT” and

the current active trunked zone.
