MDC1200 STAT-ALERT Signaling CP0650/TDN9413A
The ICP9000 Navigator’s MDC1200 Stat-Alert Signaling option supports encode and decode of
MDC1200 data. To access the signaling screen, press the
SIGNALING button located in the Navigator
toolbar. The console enters signaling mode and opens the Signaling window as shown below.
Figure 32.
RapidCall buttons on the ICP9000 Navigator are: C ALL A LERT , S ELECT C ALL , R ADIO C K , S HORT C ALL
A LERT , R ADIO D ISABLE , R ADIO E NABLE and EMR R ESET .
Call Alert and Short Call Alert are used to alert mobile operators away from their vehicles to call the
console operator. When a mobile radio receives a Call Alert, it will generate alert tones until the mobile
operator manually shuts them off or transmits.
Radio Check allows the console operator to determine if a mobile radio is operational or within range.
The mobile radio will return an acknowledgement that it received the Radio Check.
Radio Disable prevents radio use should a mobile radio be lost or stolen. An appropriately equipped
mobile radio that receives a Radio Disable message (specifically directed to that radio) will become
inoperative. Radio Enable re-enables a disabled mobile radio.
Select Call allows an individual ID or group to be called without disturbing other units. Select Call is
essentially a RapidCall paging feature. The receiving mobile will generate alert beeps prior to unmuting
its speaker.
All call types available in the Navigator, with the exception of Select Call, require an acknowledgement
from the destination radio unless the destination ID is a group ID or contains a wildcard digit. Most field
units can be programmed with a unique ID as well as a group ID to allow for addressing a number of
units as a group. Unique ID’s range from “0001” to “DEEE”. Note that “0000” is not a valid ID. A
group ID is any ID with the number ‘E’ or ‘*’ as the fourth digit and can range from “E001” to “EEEE”.
For example, the ID “E001” or “*001” is a group ID while “0E01” or “0*01” is not. A wildcard ID is any
ID containing an ‘F’ or ‘#’ in any location. Some examples of a wildcard ID are “#001”, “0F01” and
“####”. A wildcard ID matches any number. Therefore, a wildcard ID of “000#” matches any ID from
“0001” to “000E”. Note that the use of wildcards in the fourth position such as “#001” will not match a
group ID of “E001”.
