5.13.4 Out of Range (EFJohnson Conventional) Indication
In an EFJohnson P25 conventional infrastructure radio system, a predefined beacon can be
programmed for transmission from the system at preset intervals. If the radio remains idle
and does not receive the beacon or a voice call from the system within a specified time
period (as programmed) an “Out of Rng” indication is displayed to inform the radio user
of the condition. If the beacon is received, the timer is automatically restarted, and no out-
of range condition is indicated. If an Out of Range condition exists, the user can still
transmit and receive, but the condition will not exit until the beacon is received.
