12.11 STATUS/MESSAGE OPERATION
Status and message operation is possible with either the Scan or System version of the M7100
IP
Series
mobile radio unit. The following procedure is applicable for the System version. For operation with the
Scan version, the four primary keycaps must be reconfigured and pre-programmed for status/message
operation.
12.11.1 Status Operation
Status operation permits the transmission of a pre-programmed status condition to the EDACS or
P25 Trunked site.
To send a status condition, press the s button (keylight comes on) then press one of the
number buttons (0-9) to select the pre-programmed status. If no status has been programmed for
the selected number button, the radio will display NO ENTRY and the radio will sound a low
tone. A valid selection will permit the status text to appear in the display for a pre-programmed
time. After the time-out expires or the m button has been pressed (the m button will
override the time-out period), the status is selected and will be transmitted to the site or stored in
the radio memory where it can be polled by the site at a future time. If the site receives the status
properly, when transmitted or polled by the site, a high-pitched tone sounds and the keylight
associated with that status will remain lit. If the site does not receive the status properly, a low-
pitched tone sounds and the keylight associated with the status will blink.
If an incorrect status was selected or the incorrect number button was pressed, the status can be
changed during the pre-programmed time-out period by pressing another number button. The
status selection can also be cancelled by pressing the c button prior to the time-out period.
To view the currently selected status after it has been transmitted, press the s button. If the
status was not sent successfully to the site, the text associated with the status will flash in the
display.
The radio can also be pre-programmed to redesignate the keypad buttons for ST0 thru ST9 to
send status condition. In this configuration the radio status operation will operate as previously
described except the s button is not required. The keylight associated with ST0 thru ST9 will
indicate which status is selected.
12.11.2 Message Operation
Message operation permits the transmission of a pre-programmed message text to an EDACS or
P25 Trunked site.
To send a message, press the n button (keylight comes on) then press one of the number
buttons (0-9) to select the pre-programmed message text. If no message text has been
programmed for the selected number button, the radio will display NO ENTRY and a low-pitched
tone sounds. A valid selection will permit the message text to appear in the display for a pre-
programmed time. After the time-out expires or the m button has been pressed (the m
button will override the time-out period), the message text is selected and will be transmitted to
the site. If the site receives the message properly when transmitted, a high pitched tone sounds and
