VIP In (Mobiles Only)At the MAIN MENU, press F4, F3 twice and then F6 to access this
screen.
Mobiles Only
This screen can be accessed for non-motorcycle Mobiles only. This menu
allows you to define Vehicle Interface Port (VIP) features for the VIP
Input ports using the UP/DOWN arrow keys. If the radio has Direct
Entry Keypads (DEKs), each DEK will have VIP inputs. The Vehicle
Interface Port (VIP) Inputs allow the radio to control circuits outside
the radio system. The VIP Input fields are related to the number of
Direct Entry Keypad (DEK) boxes that the radio has in the following
manner:
0 DEK boxes -> 3 VIP Ins
1 DEK box -> 3 VIP Ins
2 DEK boxes -> 6 VIP Ins
3 DEK boxes -> 9 VIP Ins
An example of a typical VIP In feature is “Horn Ring.” The entry in the
Vip In column indicates the DEK box to which the Input is connected.
VIP In assignments vary depending on the number of DEK boxes
connected to the radio. For each configuration, the button
assignments should be as follows:
However, even if no DEK boxes are connected, the radio can be
programmed with VIP In features.

Some Conventional interconnect systems require a “#” to release (disconnect) the telephone line when the user has completed the call. Release codes are used for system management purposes to improve system loading by eliminating dead air time after interconnect calls are completed. Note: To enter pause (P) from the keypad, press “*” and then “#”. Codes can be added and deleted using the F2 and F5 function keys respectively. New codes will be added to the end of the list.
