Features:
Environmental protection to IP55
The practical HX Series 2.0 radios enjoy an IP55 rated construction,
which means that they are dust protected and resistant to water
ingress (i.e. splash proof). For most day to day applications,
this level of protection is perfectly adequate, however, where
full protection against immersion in water is required, users
should consider our IP68 rated HT Series 2.0 radios.
MILSTD 810C/D/E/F
Meeting MIL-STD 810C/D/E/F commercial grade construction for
tough, enduring performance, the Entel's HT and HX series 2.0
portables conform to stringent standards, enabling them to withstand
the everyday rigours of shock, vibration and the corrosive effects
of dust and moisture, ensuring many years of trouble free use
in the most hostile environments.
1800mAh Li-Ion battery
All Entel portables come with the latest intelligent Lithium-Ion
battery technology as standard. Whichever model you choose, these
batteries will count the number of completed charge cycles, which
on LCD variants, if dealer enabled, can be displayed when you
power-on your radio.
For your convenience it will even alert you
to imminent battery life expiration. Another advantage of Lithium-Ion
battery technology is the way it maximizes duty cycles, while
the elimination of memory effect means there is no need to fully
discharge the cells before recharging. Therefore you are assured
a full duty cycle each and every time you take your radio from
its charger.
Flash upgradeable to add future features
Entel proposes to continuously add/upgrade features to its range
of radios. Using Flash Upgrade technology your radios can be
upgraded by your Dealer at any time.
Robust accessory socket
A completely redesigned accessory connector, when secured to
the portable, is designed to withstand any amount of punishment
from dropping to careless misuse. Furthermore, the securing bolt
incorporates a shearing point to protect the connector.
On selcall and advanced variants, the connector
provides a programmable interface for audio accessories and data
devices, as well as a custom interface for any special applications.
255 channels
The HX4x6 comes with 255 channels. For 16 channel variants see
HX4x2 and HX4x2S.
Scrolling graphic LCD display
LCD display variants offer more information and versatility.
For example, our high tier radios can display: Channel Name,
Caller ID, Text Messages, Emails etc.
Channel naming
The LCD versions allow your Dealer to "name" channels.
Rather than just indicating a channel number your Entel radio
can display "Security Channel" etc.
Multi-function encoder control
The encoder control fitted on top of our high tier range of radios
provides: Volume control, channel change, navigate contact, status & message
lists etc. In addition you can use the encoder to quickly navigate
your user friendly menus.
Scan/priority scan
Both HT and HX series portables have the facility to scan for
an active channel. When an active channel is found, the radio
will automatically select that channel for you. Priority scan
will allow you to select one channel in the scan list that is
treated as a "Priority".
It will be checked more frequently than all other channels in
the list.
Voice annunciation (option)
Speaks the channel number and basic settings so you can operate
the radio without having to look at it.
Bluetooth™ wireless communications (option)
Allows you to connect a Bluetooth audio or data accessory.
Clone data from one radio to another
Allows you to easily configure another radio to match your system.
For - Convenience
VOX hands free (with audio accessory)
When you attach a VOX enabled audio accessory you can operate
totally hands free. All you need to do is talk and your Entel
radio will automatically transmit for you.
Programmable channel monitor button
If you have Analogue or Digital squelch enabled all signals other
than your own will be filtered out. This can be temporarily disabled
enabling you to monitor any other transmissions on your channel.
This button may be programmed on or off by your Dealer.
2/5 tone selective calling & FFSK
A whole host of additional mobile phone-like features are possible
when you use 2/5 Tone selective calling. Some are listed below.
Open or Closed channel modes
Most radio systems are "open" meaning
everyone on the system can hear everyone else. In some cases
this is a benefit, however call privacy may be required at times.
This is where Entel's closed channel mode comes into its own
(see below).
Call a group, individual or all radios at once
In closed channel mode your high tier Entel radio can be programmed
so that a call that is "private" e.g.
1 to 1 or 1 to a small "group" can be made. If required “open” calls can still be made i.e. call everyone at once.
255 user contact list (just like a mobile phone)
Your Entel contact list allows for up to 255 contacts (radio,
phone & email).
With a full keypad radio, finding a contact could not be easier.
Just type the first few letters of the contact and your search
will be automatically narrowed.
Multiple ringtones
The high tier radios allow you to set different ringtones against
different contacts in the same way you can with a mobile phone.
Battery charge count
Whichever model you choose, these batteries will count the number
of completed charge cycles, which on LCD variants, if dealer
enabled, can be displayed when you power-on your radio. For your
convenience it will even alert you to imminent battery life expiration.
If you opt for a system of non-display portables then we recommend
that you have at least one model with a display in order to take
advantage of this unique feature.
Invert display
Inverts the display allowing you to read it when the radio
is viewed upside down on a belt clip, for example.
Talkaround
Some radio systems use a "repeater" to
increase the system's range. However when you go outside the
range of the repeater, communication with another radio is not
possible no matter how close you are. Talkaround enables you
to talk directly with another radio, bypassing the repeater.
Intuitive menus (like a
mobile phone)
Modern radios offer extensive features and as such can become
complex to use. Entel's goal has been to offer advanced features
but with simplified operation. Our new high tier range provides
the ultimate in an intuitive user interface, similar to that
of a mobile phone. We are confident most features can be used
without the need to refer to your user guide.
Info button (user guide built in to radio) Watch the video
Just in case you are unsure of a feature, your high tier Entel
radio has a built-in user guide. Just press the "Info" button.
Speed dial
Again, just like a mobile phone, speed dials can be allocated
to the radio’s
keys.
Who's calling (caller ID)
Our entire high tier radio range offers caller ID. This enables
you to see who is calling you.
Missed, received & dialled
numbers lists
Missed a call? No problem - you will have a message and indicator
waiting when you return to your radio. Go to your missed call
list and return the call. Received and dialled numbers are
also stored for convenience.
Selectable "profiles"
In a meeting but expecting an important call/message? Switch
to "silent
mode" and still be available. DND mode (Do Not Disturb) additionally returns a message
to the calling party stating something like "I will call you back".
DTMF dial mode - stored/keypad
If your system allows phone calls to be made, in addition to
the contact list, your Entel full keypad radio can be used
to free dial any telephone number.
For - Security
Stun & alarm a lost or stolen
radio (& revive if found)
If a radio is lost or stolen, and assuming it is within range,
it can be remotely disabled. Once found you can enable it again.
Programmable scrambler (voice inversion)
Used to encrypt your voice, protecting against casual eavesdropping.
Power on password option
To protect against unauthorised access your Entel radio can be
password protected.
For - Safety
Local Personal Attack Alarm
All HT and HX portables include a personal attack alarm option.
Once activated the speaker of your radio will emit a high pitched
siren as a deterrent and provides a local call for assistance.
Panic button with remote alert
In addition to the Local alarm feature your high tier Entel radio
will enable you to send a message to another/all radios calling
for assistance. This ensures your request for assistance is received
even if no one is close enough to hear your local alarm.
Emergency microphone live
With remote alert your Entel radio can be programmed to automatically
transmit any background sounds. This may give respondents a clue
as to the type of emergency i.e. a struggle with an assailant
etc.
Lone Worker alarm mode
The panic button feature relies on the casualty being able to
operate the radio. Entel's Lone Worker mode goes one stage further.
If the casualty is unconscious or unable to operate the radio
for any other reason, after a predetermined time the radio will
beep, warning its user it is about to send an automatic request
for assistance. If the radio's user does not intervene the alarm
will be automatically raised.
Man Down alarm mode (option)
Entel's Man Down option detects when the radio is no longer in
its normal position. Just like Lone Worker an alarm is emitted
giving the radio user an opportunity to cancel the alarm. If
the radio's user does not intervene the alarm will be automatically
raised. Two options of sensor are available:
* Tilt only
* Tilt & non movement (3-axis)
Shunting mode (for rail companies)
Ensure the safety of your rail staff by using Entel's Shunting
capability.
Silent alarm call mode
In some applications, so as not to inflate the situation, a covert
alarm is required. Your Entel radio can be programmed to send
an alarm silently.
Continue alarm even if switched off
Once you have initiated an alarm and the radio is switched off,
e.g. by the assailant, the radio will appear to have been switched
off (display blanks, no beeps, indicators or received signals
are heard). However the radio is still sending its emergency
request and mike-live signals etc.
Manual location information with emergency
It's one thing knowing Fred requires assistance, but where is
he? Your high tier Entel radio allows you to manually set your
location before you start a hazardous task. The location is easily
selected form your location list which is similar to your contact
list in ease of use.
Bluetooth fully automatic indoor location information (option)
If you prefer, the location of your radio can be automatically
updated as you move around your site. Small beacon transmitters
are strategically placed so that your radio always “knows”
where it is. If you initiate an emergency call your current location
is automatically transmitted to the receiving radio(s).
For - Text Messaging And Emails
Send/display status messages
Status messages are short predefined text messages that may be
sent automatically when your radio is called, when you enable
a facility, or are initiated by you manually. Examples may include: "At
Lunch", "Lone Worker switched on", "Call me when you are free" etc.
Send/display predefined text messages
Predefined text messages are longer versions of status messages.
These messages can only be sent/received using Entel's high tier
radios.
Send/display free format text/email text messages
Programmable scrambler (voice inversion) (option)
