FAILSOFT OPERATION
(TRUNKED SYSTEMS ONLY)
The "failsoft" system ensures continual radio
communications capability during a trunked system
failure. Your radio will automatically go into failsoft
operation, if the central trunking controller fails for any
reason. While in failsoft operation, your radio will
transmit and receive on a predetermined frequency on
a conventional mode. When the trunked system
returns to normal operation, the radio will automatically
leave the failsoft operation and return to trunked
operation.
During failsoft operation,

You will hear a faint
"beeping" sound
every ten seconds.
