Setting Parameters

To prevent calls from overlapping, the system waits until the Active field is set to Not Active before beginning the next call.

 

Ordinarily this works well, but in certain rare circumstances, this field may become stuck in the Active state. Suppose you were transmitting during an electrical storm, and the power went out. In this case, the field may remain stuck.

 

You need to reset the Active field manually when this happens. You cannot transmit another call until it’s reset.

 

Note: Use caution with this function. Using it while a call is actually being processed stops that call from being completed.
