: If both GPI-1 and GPI-2 are programmed for auxiliary carrier detect, GPI-2 is
unused. In that event, only GPI-1 functions as the auxiliary carrier detect input.
The auxiliary carrier detect function is used in applications where two repeaters may be
sharing the same channel. In this situation, the auxiliary carrier detect input is connected
to the logic carrier detect output of an auxiliary receiver that monitors the repeater
transmit frequency. The auxiliary carrier detect function is used only to establish that
the channel is idle prior to generating mobile signaling (ring, paging, SID, etc.).
