PA/FOG OPERATION

The GX6000 has two 25 W hailers built-in and can be used with any 4 Ohm
PA horn. Standard Horizon offers two HAIL/PA horns, the 220SW (5" round
30 Watt HAIL/PA horn) and the 240SW (5" x 8" rectangular 40 Watt HAIL/PA
horn). When the GX6000 is in PA Hail mode the PA speaker listens back (acts
as a microphone and provides two-way communications through the HAIL/PA
horn to the main radio).
When in the PA HAIL or FOG HORN mode, the GX6000 will continue
to receive DSC calls and communications on the last selected working
channel prior to entering the PA HAIL or FOG HORN mode.
Then the GX6000 AIS page can also be accessed when in the PA HAIL
or FOG HORN mode.
PA HAIL mode:
PA HAIL mode allows the transceiver to be used as a power hailer when
an optional STANDARD HORIZON 220SW or 240SW HAIL/PA horn is
installed. The PA Hail mode has a listen-back feature which provides two
way communication through the HAIL/PA horn.
FOG HORN mode:
Automatic signaling is transmitted through the HAIL/PA horn. When the
fog horn signal is not being outputted the GX6000 listens back through the
connected HAIL/PA horn.
HORN mode:
Foghorn sound or siren sound can be transmitted through the HAIL/PA
horn. When the fog horn signal is not being outputted the GX6000 listens
back through the connected HAIL/PA horn.
