3G
SERIES ENHANCEMENTS
Features Outline
1.
POWER ON REGISTRATION (Requires ST-510, ST-510LT or ST-310):
A few seconds after power up, a radio will look for a free channel and
automatically, send a data packet to the site. Upon receipt of this
message, the system looks at the user database and checks for any group
or sub-group communication in progress, which should involve this radio.
If this is the case, the system will move the radio to the channel where
the applicable communication is taking place. If there is no call in
progress, the system then checks the voice mail status and/or call forwarding
service that may be active. It will then send a voice announcement with
the quantity of messages that have been recorded or any call forwarding
information for that radio.
2.
AUTOMATIC ROAMING REGISTRATION (Requires ST-510, ST-510LT
or ST-310):
When a user moves to a new network site, the radio automatically registers
at the new site. If a call is made to that user, the ST-510 looks for
the user on a free channel at the new site only. This makes for better
resource usage and avoids wasted airtime at sites where the user is
not located.
3.
RADIO CALLER ID (Available in ST-853 only systems as
well as ST-510/ST-510LT/ST-310 systems):
When an individual call is made to a radio, the display on the radio
(if so equipped) will show the unit ID of the user who is calling or
the group ID if it is receiving a group call. At the present time, this
feature does not work with incoming landline calls. The unit IDs of
the last 10 calls received are stored and can be scrolled via a radio
function switch assigned to this function. Scrolling to the desired
unit ID followed by PTT activation can be used to return a call.
4.
CALLER ID SCROLLING (Available in ST-853 only systems as well
as ST-510/ST-510LT/ST-310 systems)
(May not be available for some models):
Ability to scroll through a stack of the IDs of the last 10 calls received.
Scrolling starts with the most recent call received. Once the desired
ID is displayed the user may return the call with a simple PTT. When
the stack is full, the oldest call is deleted to make room for the latest
call at the top of the stack.
5.
ALPHA NUMERIC DISPLAY (Available in ST-853 only systems
as well as ST-510/ST-510LT/ST-310 systems) (May not be available for
some models):
Groups selected and speed or turbo dial numbers can display alphanumerically.
6.
VIRTUAL (DYNAMIC) REGROUPING USING A SINGLE CHANNEL (Requires
ST-510 or ST-510LT):
The dynamic regrouping service is available through the optional dispatch
console software (which can run on a stand alone or networked PC). Dynamic
Regrouping can join individual users and/or groups into a virtual temporary
group as determined by the dispatch console operator. Virtual groups
can be convened "on the fly" by the console operator, or pre-programmed
to a console screen button. All the users or groups are joined on the
same conference channel. In case of multi-site regrouping, the system
uses one channel at each site.
7.
LATE TO JOIN (Requires ST-510, ST-510LT or ST-310):
If a user is busy on another call, and a group (or sub group) call originates
on another channel, the system will move the "late to join"
user to the group call in progress whenever that user completes his
other call. If the user was powered off when the group call started,
and powers on the radio while the group call is still on the air, that
radio will also be merged automatically to the group call in progress.
8.
LOST RADIO RE-JOIN (Requires ST-510 or ST-510LT):
If a user that is involved in a group call enters a "shadow"
area (area of no radio coverage), the radio of course will miss the
call while the user is out of range. Realizing this, the user can easily
rejoin the group by pressing PTT as the radio re-enters radio coverage
area.
9.
SECURE SPEECH (Available in ST-853 only systems as well
as ST-510/ST-510LT/ST-310 systems)
(May not be available for some radio models):
The new 3G family of logic boards support voice inversion encryption
for secure speech. This feature can be enabled or disabled by the user
once the call is established. This feature is presently not available
for landline calls.
10.
CONVENTIONAL CHANNEL SCANNING (Requires ST-510, ST-510LT
or ST-310):
Allows a SmarTrunk radio to scan and communicate on a conventional channel
outside of the SmarTrunk trunking system channels. This mode provides
the user with conventional talk-around for when out of range of the
trunking system, or to bypass the trunking system for certain modes
of operation. It can also be used for monitoring or operating on a conventional
repeater or simplex system.
