REPEATER TIMEOUT TIMER

The time-out timer sets the maximum length of a single transmission for a user. When the user’s transmission time has been
exceeded, the repeater transmitter PTT is turned off, un-keyed. The COS must drop and the courtesy message started for this
timer to reset. Before and after a timeout, the repeater will send a message to notify the user/s. These messages are called pre
and post time-out messages.

The use of a “*” in the time field will manually reset the timer if a user talks too long or if continuous noise on the repeater
input has timed out the repeater. The timer can be reset by capturing the signal on the repeater input and by issuing the time-
out reset S-Command. The reset command will need to be terminated with a “C” under the above condition. This command
could be sent over the Auxiliary Link or telephone if needed.

SYNTAX:

10 [Time]

MINIMUM:

* (Manual reset), 0 (Disable time-out)

MAXIMUM:

255

UNITS:

Tenths of minutes or 6 second increments.
“*” = Manual reset time out timer.

DEFAULT:

30 (3.0 Minutes)

EXAMPLE:

10 10

The user will time out the repeater in 1.0 minute.
