The V-TAC takes advantage of OpenSky’s TDMA capability to minimize interference between its local
and network radio links when operating in an Extended Coverage mode (XCOV or XCOV-TG), an
undesirable characteristic of many traditional vehicular repeater systems. However, unlike OpenSky
network radio channels, Extended Coverage supports only one active voice call at a time.

Frequency selection is automatic from a predetermined list of channels. This list is defined as part of the
configuration being available for V-TAC operation. The process is supported by GPS location
information that allows the V-TAC to be aware of its location and choose accordingly from its channel
list. If no Extended Coverage channels have been configured, the V-TAC will remain in Extended
Coverage mode and it will continue to search its V-TAC channel list.

Changing Between Extended Coverage Modes
By default, the specific Extended Coverage mode utilized, either XCOV or XCOV-TG, is determined by
commands sent to the V-TAC and portable radios from the system administrator or radio installation
personnel. In other words, these commands determine which Extended Coverage mode the V-TAC and
radios normally utilize when transitioning from the Mobile-Only mode. Therefore, they also determine
the access method that must be employed at a portable radio to connect to the V-TAC. After commands
of this type are sent to the V-TAC and portable radios, each must be rebooted (powered off and then back
on) before the change will take effect.

However, both the V-TAC and the portable radios can manually override this command-determined
default mode. At the V-TAC, this is accomplished by a selection from the “Vmode Menu”. Manual
override at a portable radio is accomplished by pressing a pre-defined key sequence; refer to the
respective portable radio’s operator manual for exact key sequences required.

Additional XCOV-TG Mode Information
The talk group used for Extended Coverage for talk groups (XCOV-TG) communications is the talk
group that was selected at the V-TAC when it entered XCOV-TG mode.

However, at the V-TAC, the selected talk group and/or profile can be changed to another talk group
and/or profile when XCOV-TG is in use. The selected talk group and profile in effect when the V-TAC
transitioned to XCOV-TG mode will continue to be used to validate portable radio connections and filter
the network voice traffic sent to the portable radios.

V-TAC GPS Interlock
The V-TAC GPS Interlock feature is enabled or disabled through programming by the system
administrator. If enabled, the V-TAC can transition from XCOV or XCOV-TG to the Mobile Radio mode
of operation based on the location and velocity of the VTAC (provided by GPS) in order to prevent a
rolling VTAC. This capability applies only to XCOV and XCOV-TG mode of operation and does not
apply to Mobile Radio mode or Scene of Incident (SOI) mode.
