Call Director patch
The
Call Director patch
feature allows the dispatcher at a console to
"patch" a telephone line to a specific unit, talk group, conventional
channel, or radio patch in the CEC/IMC network. The term patch or
patched, derived from phone patch, is used to signify the CD is
connected to the CEC/IMC. A Call Director patch should not be
confused with a radio-type patch in which a collection of radio talk
groups are interconnected for common communications as one group.
(See
patch ("soft"/console)
.) The console uses a secondary LID
(Logical ID) for the patch channel requests, thus allowing CD patch
operation to work separately from, and concurrently with, the normal
console-to-radio dispatch communications.

Causeway patch
The
Causeway patch
feature allows a conventional channel to be
patched directly to a trunked talk group via the trunked group's
Group ID (GID) number. All conventional channels in a CEC/IMC
can be Causeway patched. Causeway patches are setup and
deactivated at the CEC/IMC Manager, not consoles. Consoles and
trunked sites in the CEC/IMC network know nothing about
Causeway patches, except the respective GID number. This feature
was previously referred to as "hard patch." (Also see
patch
("soft"/console)
.)
Causeway simulselect
The
Causeway simulselect
feature allows a conventional channel to
be simulselected to a trunked talk group via the trunked talk group's
Group ID (GID) number. All conventional channels in a CEC/IMC
can be Causeway simulselected. Causeway simulselects are setup
and deactivated at the CEC/IMC Manager, not consoles. Consoles
and trunked sites in the CEC/IMC network know nothing about
Causeway simulselects, except the respective GID number. This
feature was previously referred to as "hard simulselect." (Also see
simulselect ("soft"/console)
.)
