NEW CONSOLE ICONS
Talkgroup Cross-Busy Indications
Because there are now multiple talkgroups on a conventional channel, it is
important to notify a dispatcher of “other activity” on a channel which may
conflict with the talkgroup he is monitoring.
Below indications will be supported in 7.15 for Conventional Talkgroups:
Console Busy (when another console on same
talkgroup)
Transmit Pending/Queued
Cross-busy due to console
Cross-busy due to emergency
Cross-busy due to radio
NOTE: The indications shown here are for illustrative purposes only. Artwork will

Conventional Data Enhancement feature encompasses: HA, DSR, fingertip
Interzone Data functionality
•
Provide equivalent functionality on fingertip Interzone data and levels of redundancy for
conventional data as are available for voice
Customers expect mission critical data service voice service, i.e. provide a highly
available, fault tolerant data solution
Enables failure recovery mechanisms for Conventional ASTRO® 25 Integrated
Data infrastructure failures
•

•
Provides a solution with fast recovery times, addressed by High Availability part of this
proposal
Provides geographically separate redundancy addressed by DSR part of this proposal
Provides Interzone data without duplications of users in zones
CONVENTIONAL DATA
REDUNDANCY
VALUE PROPOSITION
HIGH AVAILABILITY / DSR
NEED
On multizone system, allow subs to move between both zones without losing
connectivity to their applications in the CEN
•
Should not require subscribers to be provisioned in multiple PDGs resulting in overall
reduced capacity
WHY
A user will remain connected to its home zone as it moves through the system. A
user will be required to operate the channel knob to get the data services for the
coverage area he is roaming into (same as legacy)
WHAT
Interzone Conventional Data Requirement:
•
•
•
•
64,000 Provisioned Conventional Data Subscribers per Zone
128,000 Provisioned Conventional Data Subscribers per System (more than one zone)
20,000 Active Conventional Data User sessions per Zone
40,000 Active Conventional Data User sessions per system (more than one zone)
CONVENTIONAL DATA
REDUNDANCY
BLOCK DIAGRAM
HIGH AVAILABILITY / DSR
The purpose of the High Availability
Data feature is to ensure continued
Conventional Packet Data service in
the face of a single failure within a
zone (anywhere between the Border
Router and the PDG).
Network transport equipment (e.g.,
a router) is expected to
automatically sense an interface or
link failure and initiate the
appropriate recovery action.

FEATURE DESCRIPTION
• As haul trucks move around an open pit mine
• As patrol cars move into an incident scene
• As service trucks enter an area affected by a major power
outage
 APX talkgroup is automatically changed via re-grouping command
when entering a geo-fenced area
 GeoFences and their talkgroup can be dynamically defined
 GeoFences only affect a pre-defined group of individual APX IDs
 APX will announce the new talkgroup and optionally receive a text
message
 APX will indicate (audible/visual) when GPS location is lost
 APX user can override the re-grouped talkgroup (same as overriding
re-grouped radios today)

MIXED MODE CONV SIMULCAST
FEATURE DESCRIPTION
Enables mixed mode (analog/digital) simulcast operation in a
conventional system with IP transport
• Leverages a dual comparator solution:
• MLC 8000 votes analog audio
• GCM 8000 votes digital audio
• Certified for voice only communication (no data)
• Call priority is determined using ‘First-in Wins’ methodology
• This feature is limited in terms of prioritizing console interrupts
MIXED MODE CONV SIMULCAST
USE CASE
1) Analog to Digital Migration
• A customer with an analog simulcast system would like to migrate
to digital, but can not afford to convert all of their subscribers to
digital at one time
• This feature provides a simulcast infrastructure solution that can
support both analog and digital calls while analog-only capable
subscribers are gradually replaced with P25 digital capable
subscribers
2) Mixed Mode Single Site Repeater to Simulcast Migration
• A customer with a mixed mode non-simulcast system would like to
convert their system to simulcast to improve their coverage
• For example, customers may want to replace their receive-only
sites with a full transmit/receive sites to improve outbound
coverage (especially in building coverage)

Shift Changes
• An agency exchanges radios at shift changes and uses a CAD
system to keep track of who has which radio.
• They want the radio PTT ID aliases displayed on their dispatch
consoles to match the CAD system.
• For efficiency and accuracy reasons, they want the CAD
system to automatically update the console system with alias
changes.
