Ours send even when unit is asleep...basically only the power to the handheld unit is asleep...the black box is always on...one of the causes why our batteries die when OOS for an extended time....right now I have the main power disconnected...no location since I unplugged it.
I used to leave it plugged in but after the 10 days or so of not moving I'd have to boost myself...

No it only does that for I think 24 hours. I will verify time frame tomorrow but it does not go forever.

I know it goes into a repeat cycle....because it says repeat on the screen I see....maybe after so many repeats....or I could plug mine in and we'll test it out?....:)

When I am on the phone to dispatch I get my butt over and turn the key ASAP...that QC needs to be booted up.....I seem to get the workflow quicker that way....

Now that's something I can do, and I probably would have thought of it, eventually. Maybe. Thanks. ;)

I have observed if the thing is shutdown when dispatch sends the info....it seems to float around cyberspace when it bumps off the OFF unit...I know its weird....but if the unit is ON...it comes straight thru...The unit is inconsistent at best....
