Howdy folks.
I'm building a codeplug for a local group which uses XTS5000's.
Their wants include an astro conventional system, as well as the ability to trigger the evac tone as an all stop (safety stop / evac) for their team. They are using an astro talk group, conventionally, without encryption.
Its pretty straight forward to do this for a non-astro (analog) conventional system, but not an astro personality. I've read through the help files, and the only quotable bit is below, which doesn't tell me what I'd like to know. I've also hunted and pecked at google and around here, to no avail.
"Enables the Evacuation Tone (a high/low sound) to be heard on the transmitting radio and on any radio that is able to receive the tone instruction. The tone begins and is transmitted when the PTT button and the "orange button" are simultaneously pressed. This evacuation tone instruction is transmitted to the radio’s entire talkgroup (for the current channel); the type of talkgroup is dependent on the radio’s current call mode. Once the tone begins to sound, if the orange button is released the tone continues to alarm until the PTT button is released.
AppliesOnly
(When the radio’s current Conventional channel has its Tx Voice/Signal Type set to "Non-ASTRO", and
when the current channel is operating in "Clear" mode (not Secure Encrypted)).
Or
(When the radio’s current Trunking channel has its Protocol Type field set to "Type II", and
when the Trunking Personality Tx Voice/Signal Type field is set to "Analog", and
when the current channel is operating in "Clear" mode (not Secure Encrypted))."
I know this is possible with a console, but they're not interested or able to run a more advanced setup than what they're currently using / developing.
If anyone has any input, even if its as simple as "not possible without a console", it'd be much appreciated.
Cheers.
