Talkgroup a single channel, which allows a unique group of radio users to communicate with one another.
Talkgroup the electronic equivalent of a channel on a trunked system; a unique group of radio users that can communicate with each other. (NOTE: Talkgroups differ from regular and conventional radio channels in which they are not restricted to a certain radio frequency and may use up to 21 separate frequencies that are assigned by a controller on a control channel.)
Talkgroup the electronic equivalent of a channel on a trunked system; a unique group of radio users that can communicate with each other. Trunking: because of the limited nature of radio spectrum, trunking technology allows the most efficient use of radio channels. Trunking technology is similar to the technology that telephone companies use. In trunked radio communications, all available user channels are placed into one pool. When a person needs to transmit, a channel is automatically selected from the available pool and used for one’s transmission. When the person is finished with one’s transmission, the channel is placed back in the pool for another individual to use. The result is more efficient use of radio spectrum with a minimal probability of not having access to a channel. User: an agency, person, group, organization, or other entity which has an existing written Membership Agreement with one of the Parties to the Cooperative and Mutual Aid Agreement. The terms user and member are synonymous and interchangeable. User Council: governing body responsible for recommending all operational and maintenance decisions affecting the system. Under the direction and supervision of the Executive Council, the User Council has the responsibility for management oversight and operations of the system. The User Council oversees the development of system

Talkgroup. Subsystem/site failsoft is the final fallback means of communication if a site no longer maintains wide-area or site trunking operation. Multiple failures have to occur for the system to enter failsoft. Failsoft impacts individual RF cells within a network. In multiple RF cell systems, one RF cell can be in failsoft, while the rest of the system remains in wide-area trunking. The subsystem goes into failsoft mode in any of these scenarios: The site controllers are not functioning properly When all control channels are disabled or malfunctioned When only one channel is enabled June 9, 2014 Xxxxxxx County Sheriff's Office Use or disclosure of this proposal is subject Proposal for the Project 25 Southern Simulcast Cell to the restrictions on the cover page. Failsoft operation provides communications in conventional mode via repeaters/base radios in order to maintain vital communications. In an IP multi-site simulcast subsystem, in subsystem-wide failsoft, received audio is routed to the comparator for voting and redistributed to all of the sites for simulcast transmission. The subscriber’s operation in failsoft mode is determined by the subscriber’s programming. A subscriber can be programmed to behave in the following manner: Failsoft by control channel operation – The subscriber first scans for alternate control channels outside the multi-site subsystem, then scans the control channel frequencies for failsoft data. Failsoft by working group – The subscriber looks for Failsoft data on a pre-programmed frequency after a scan for alternate control channels outside the multi-site subsystem is unsuccessful. If the subscriber cannot decode failsoft data on the pre-programmed frequency, the subscriber then scans the control channels in the simulcast subsystem for failsoft data. Subscriber units in an RF cell that is in failsoft will try to roam to an RF cell that is in either wide- area trunking or site trunking. Dispatch consoles use control stations or the operators use portable radios to communicate on a site trunking RF cell. Console priority is not available in site trunking. Data applications are not available on a site in failsoft and will have to be reinitiated once the system reverts back to wide-area trunking. Simulcast Local Failsoft This feature addresses two simulcast subsystem failure scenarios, prime site to sub-site link failure and prime site failure: Upon loss of communication (11 seconds or more) with comparators due to a sub-site li...

Talkgroup. Technical Working Group A defined organizational grouping of radio users who need to communicate with one another. A working group consisting of Member technical and operational practitioners who meet to address Network Services, operation and maintenance issues, performance issues, Impact Assessments, and other Network technical matters as established by the Board pursuant to Subsection 2.2.12. User Working Group Working Day As established by the Board pursuant to Subsection 2.2.12, a group (such as fire fighters, police officers or General Government Personnel) that meets to: (1) discuss or provide operational or field input regarding RWC Network use and performance; (2) share knowledge and experience; (3) receive input from RWC department delegates, industry providers or RWC management (or RWC management designee); and (4) conduct other related activities. A calendar day other than Saturday, Sunday or a United States federal holiday.
