• ANI Code: Allows for selection of the DTMF identifying code to be transmitted to a radio. This
code may contain up to eight digits. The valid range for each digit is 0–9, A-D, *, or #.
N
OTE : This applies only when Mode is set to “Radio.”
• ANI Repeat Mode: Selects how often the ANI is transmitted. The Call Box can be configured
so that the ANI will be transmitted on “Every PTT”, on only the “Initial PTT”, or on any PTT
following the “Idle Delay” time. When “Every PTT” is selected, the Call Box will transmit its
ANI on every PTT. When “Initial PTT” is selected, the ANI code will only be broadcast on the
initial PTT, that is, the PTT activation that woke the unit from its battery-power-saving standby
mode. “Initial PTT” is unavailable when “Standby Forever” is enabled. When “Idle Delay” is
selected, the ANI code will be broadcast after a period of inactivity with no PTT and no Carrier
Detect; determined by the “Repeat Delay Time.” N
OTE : This applies only when Mode is set to
“Radio.” By default, this is set to “Initial PTT.”
• ANI DTMF Transmit Level: Allows for adjustment of the DTMF digits’ signal level for the
ANI broadcast. By default, this is set at half volume.
• ANI Repeat Delay Time: The “Delay Time” setting allows for selection of the length of inactive
time required to force the Call Box to retransmit its ANI code on the next PTT. The valid range
for the “Delay Time” is 1–126 seconds (cannot be greater than the “Standby Time”).
N
OTE : This applies only when Mode is set to “Radio” and the ANI Repeat Mode is set to “Idle
Delay.”
• Standby Forever: Selecting this feature prevents the Call Box from going to its power-saving
standby mode. Enable this feature only if an external power source is used to power the Call
Box. N
OTE : This applies only when Mode is set to “Radio.” By default, “Standby Forever” is
not selected.
• Standby Time: If the Standby Forever feature is not selected, the Call Box will return to a
battery-power-saving mode after a period of inactivity. This setting allows for selection of the
time that the Call Box will remain active (able to receive) without activity (PTT or Carrier
Detect) before it enters its battery-power-saving standby mode. The valid range is 5–255
seconds (cannot be less than the “ANI Repeat Delay Time”). By default, this is set to 10
seconds.
• Initial Minimum Talk Time: The initial PTT button press will cause the Call Box to transmit
for a minimum time, even if the user releases the PTT button. The initial PTT activation is the
button press that switches the unit out of its battery-power saving standby mode into receive
mode. This setting allows for selection of this minimum time. A setting of 0 disables this
feature. The valid range is 0 (disabled) or 0.125–31.875 seconds in 0.125 second increments.
N
OTE : This applies only when Mode is set to “Radio.” By default, this is set at 4 seconds.
• Maximum Talk Time: Allows for selection of the maximum continuous time that the Call Box
will transmit even if the PTT button is held for a longer duration. Note that the internal radio
module may have its own transmit timeout which has priority over this setting. The valid range
is 5–60 seconds. By default, this is set at 20 seconds.
• Maximum Off Hook Time: The Model CB194-xxx Handset RF Call Box will transmit an Off-
Hook DTMF fault code if it has been off-hook and inactive for a time that exceeds this setting of
Maximum Off- Hook Time. This fault can occur at the beginning of a call if the handset is taken
off hook, and the PTT is not pressed soon enough. This fault can occur at the end of a call if the
handset remains off hook after the Call Box switches to its low- power standby mode. The valid
range is 1–255 seconds.
N
OTE : This applies only when Mode is set to “Radio.” By default, this is set to 60 seconds.
