These tones sound when the communication starts or ends and notifies the user of it.

Using Sound to Notify the Timing to Start Communications (PTT Proceed Tone)

PTT Proceed Tone is a tone that sounds from the transceiver when the transceiver becomes available by a user pressing
the PTT switch.
In an LTR Trunking system and NXDN Trunking system, a user needs to start speaking when the repeater becomes
available after pressing the PTT switch. Since this duration is not always the same, it is difficult for a user to know when to
start speaking after pressing the PTT switch. If a user starts speaking at the time when the PTT Proceed Tone sounds from
the transceiver in this situation, this allows communications to start without losing the first part of the call.
The PTT Proceed Tone sounds from the transceiver if the transceiver can modulate the audio signals after starting
transmission, and the amount of time configured for Proceed Tone Delay Time elapses.
PTT Proceed Tone can be used in a Conventional Group.
Note
• The transceiver does not transmit audio signals until the PTT Proceed Tone stops sounding even if the transceiver starts transmitting
by a user pressing the PTT switch.
• If the PTT ID is configured for the channel while a DTMF, 2-tone, FleetSync, or MDC-1200 signaling is transmitted, the configuration
for PTT Proceed Tone will be disabled. In this case, the configurations for Sidetone (DTMF/ 2-tone) and PTT ID Sidetone (FleetSync/
MDC-1200) will be enabled.
Configuration using KPG-111D/ DN

Using Sound to Notify the Other Party that the Communication Ends
(PTT Release Tone)
PTT Release Tone can be used to notify the receiving party by audible tone that the communication has completed by
releasing the PTT switch. With this function, knowing an audible tone marks the end of a call will allow the receiving party
to easily recognize the timing to transmit next.
The transceiver transmits the PTT Release Tone and then finishes the actual transmission when the call is ended by
releasing the PTT switch.
 Conventional Group/ NXDN Trunking System
This function can be enabled or disabled for each transceiver.
 LTR Trunking System
This function can be enabled or disabled for each case when transmitting with the Dispatch ID or when transmitting
with the Telephone ID. This can be configured individually in order to avoid double beeping when using a Telephone ID,
since some repeaters have a similar function to Telephone IDs.
