Test Mode and Error Codes
Test Mode/Tx Modulation
Use PTT switch for modulation type selection. A continuous press will advance
the radio to the next modulation test (cyclic scroll ) and perform Tx test until PTT
is released. The modulation selection is described in the table below.
Table 4-2 Test Mode/Tx Modulation
(1). C stands for the selected channel (1-7). See Table 4-1.
Fail Mode
The radio will enter Fail Mode upon detecting one of the following errors:
• Application startup self check error
• Codeplug information check error
There are two categories of errors: critical and non-critical. Critical errors will
stop radio normal operation.
(1). For error no. 7, personality (system) change is allowed although
the illegal tone is heard. For error no. 8 the temporary illegal tone
is heard. (See the Quick Start card for instructions on how to
change personality.) To exit fail mode, power radio off.
Non-critical errors will be temporarily indicated as described in
the table above.
Exiting Test Mode
To exit Test Mode, proceed as follows:
• Turn radio off.
• Turn RIB on.
• Turn radio on.
