Attachment A - Joint Agreement for 800 MHz CCCS Page 48 of 83 <br />Each User Agency is responsible to ensure that: <br />Personnel assigned radios shall receive the appropriate training with emphasis on <br />awareness of and how to navigate to mutual aid and interoperability channels or <br />talkgroups (initial and ongoing refresher training). <br />Only trained and qualified personnel shall operate radio equipment. <br />Radio users are familiar with sections of the SOP. <br />4.18 Interoperability and non-CCCS Radio Users <br />Purpose or Objective <br />Establishes the minimum training standards for radio users having access to interoperable <br />resources of the System. This ensures the proper operation of radios on the System and <br />safeguards against improper utilization of interoperability resources. <br />Operational Context <br />System functionality and operability is maintained by ensuring that only properly trained <br />personnel use the interoperable resources on the System for mutual aid communications. If <br />agencies do not have appropriate training, then communications failure or a degradation of the <br />System resources may occur. <br />Protocol/Standard <br />Radio users shall have a demonstrated knowledge of Section 6 Interoperability Standards, and <br />have successfully completed appropriate initial and ongoing refresher training including: <br />User training emphasizing: <br />o The use of interoperable channels and how to navigate their radio. <br />o How a user's radio experiences can be affected by the selected interoperability <br />channel (digital, analog, non-trunked, etc.). <br />Dispatch and supervisory training emphasizing: <br />o The use of interoperable channels. <br />o The use of patching and patch channels. <br />o The use of cross band repeaters and gateway devices. <br />o The use of RF control stations. <br />o How a user's radio experiences can be affected by the selected interoperability <br />channel (digital, analog, non-trunked, etc.). <br />Radio users with access to interoperable channels must be familiar with all applicable mutual <br />aid and interoperable requirements and procedures. <br />Procedure <br />This SOP does not contain specific training procedures or training modules. <br />Management <br />The Lead Agency will provide training materials upon request for initial training and ongoing <br />refresher training. Additionally, as resources permit, the Lead Agency will assist user agencies <br />
