MARCS Talkgroup Definitions

adapted from MARCS publication
customized by Telecom for Warren County, OH
MARCS Helpdesk
Monitored 24x7x365 by the Ohio Office of Information Technology/MARCS-dedicated
helpdesk, located at the State of Ohio Computer Center in Columbus. Primary purpose to
assist MARCS equipment users with problems encountered with the MARCS voice or data
systems statewide.

Statewide Interoperability Talk Groups
Mutual Aid
The original concept for MARCS was based upon communication deficiencies experienced
during the Lucasville prison riots as well as the Shadyside flooding several years ago.
There were several agencies working both of these incidents, performing common tasks
but were unable to speak with each other during each incident. In an effort to resolve
this communication problem, several interoperability talkgroups were developed.
The interoperability talkgroups are as follows:
MCALL 1-4/MCOMM 1-4
SCALL/SCOMM 7-12
ECALL/ECOMM 7-12 and Homeland Security ECOMM 13-28
EMA Regional (EMA-COC, EMA-COSE, EMA-COSW, EMA-Ohio, EMA-CONE, EMA-CONW)
SO-Regions
LECOMM 01-08
National Weather Service (NWS-CLEV, NWS-PITT, NWS-WILM, NWS-CHAR, NWS-NWEB)
MCALL 1-4
MCALL is the MARCS “Hailing Channel” for Zones 1-4. The map shows boundaries for
each zone in Ohio. MCALL allows any user to call for help from anywhere in the state.
These talkgroups are monitored 24/7 by all OSHP Posts within the physical limits of each
Zone. MCALL is also monitored 24/7 by ODNR’s Columbus Central Dispatch. When using
MCALL it is preferred the call be directed to the zone the call originates from, but is not
required.
AS THE DESIGNATED INCIDENT COMMANDER AT THE SITE OF AN EMERGENCY, YOU
CAN USE MCALL TO HAIL DNR AND REQUESTECOMM TALKGROUPS FOR
EMERGENCY COMMUNICATION COORDINATION.

MCOMM 1-4
MCOMM is a generic talkgroup for any user to be able to talk to any other user. These
talkgroups are NOT MONITORED by MARCS base locations. Generally, a dispatcher would
direct you to “go to MCOMM 1 to talk to Officer A,” etc. While each MCOMM has
statewide capability, the theoretical purpose is for “direct” communications in each
geographic zone.

ECOMM 7-12
ECOMM is the MARCS users’ generic “emergency” talkgroup. ECOMM is to be used
to talk to any other user when involved in a state-coordinated emergency. At a
multi-agency scene, the Incident Command/Communications/Control would steer
responders to these talkgroups, based on functional work groups. (e.g. A MARCSequipped Incident Commander would direct “All incoming traffic units go to
ECOMM 9; all incoming rescue units go to ECOMM 11; all incoming hot zone units
go to ECOMM 12”, etc.). In other words, ECOMM talkgroups are assigned by an
incident commander for tactical use.
ECOMM is available for all agencies using the MARCS communication system.
However, it is suggested you contact the Emergency Management Agency to see if
another agency is using ECOMM. This way, you can avoid using the same
talkgroups during separate emergencies.
THE INCIDENT COMMANDER MAY REQUEST ECOMM TALKGROUPS BY
CONTACTING ODNR CENTRAL DISPATCH THROUGH THE MCALL 1-4
TALKGROUPS.

ECOMM 13-28
Homeland Security
There are zones in your radio designated for the Federal Homeland Security talkgroups
ECOMM 13-28. The Homeland Security Communications Technical Advisory Committee
decided to use some of the ECOMM talkgroups by region. They are assigned as follows:

SCALL and SCOMM 1-12

SCALL is only used when the Emergency Management Agency (EMA) deploys the
Transportable Communication System (TCS).

TCS is a mobile communication site used when additional resources have been
used in response to an emergency. The TCS can act as a standalone tower site or
as a base command center.

You will be informed by the Emergency Management Agency when the TCS has
been deployed and future emergency tactical communications are to be done on
SCALL.
If you attempt to communicate on SCALL when the TCS is not deployed, you
only receive a “honk” tone on your control station.

SCOMM 1-12 are to be used with the EMA Transportable Communication System
(TCS). You must be directed by the communication branch to use these
talkgroups.
If you attempt to communicate on SCOMM when the TCS is not deployed, you
only receive a “honk” tone on your control station.

EMA Regional
(EMA-COC, EMA-COSE, EMA-COSW, EMA-Ohio, EMA-CONE,


These are the EMA regional talkgroups.

If you need to contact a local EMA agency you use one of the EMA regional
talkgroups.

The maps on pages 34 through 38 indicate what counties are included in each
region.

Notice there is a “shaded” area as well as “slashed” area indicated on the maps.

EMA programmed their talkgroups to include adjacent counties in each region for
logistical purposes.

EMA-OHIO is restricted to Ohio Emergency Management vehicles.

National Weather Service (NWS)

The NWS talkgroups are used for communicating with the National Weather Service
office and counties who are in that area for weather related business

The maps on pages 44-48 indicate NWS areas for each NWS office. The “shaded”
area is for the immediate area. The “slashed” areas are overlap areas that are also
covered in NWS radios.

Scenario: Someone discovers tornadoes approaching. You could communicate
that information directly to NWS

The National Weather Service talkgroups are not programmed into the local health
or local hospital radios. These users could contact the local sheriff if they need
weather updates.

SO-01 through SO-88
Each county sheriff office in the state is equipped with a MARCS control station radio.
These radios are placed in the communication center of the sheriff’s office. By calling the
alpha-based two digit county number (e.g. “GPD CAR 321 to SO-59”), you will be
communicating with the Sheriff’s Communication Center. Also, the OSHP post in a county
will monitor that county’s SO talkgroup and those SO talkgroups of adjacent counties.

Sheriff Office Regions
The state is divided up onto 5 sheriff office regions indicated below.
If you need to communicate with a geographical region of sheriff offices, you may do so
by zoning over and dialing down to SO-CEN, SO-NW, SO-NE, SO-SW, SO-SE. A map
showing the geographical boundaries is below.

LECOMM 1 through LECOMM 8
LECOMM is the MARCS non-state agency users’ generic “emergency” talkgoup. These
talkgroups offer the ability to talk to any other non-state user when involved in an
emergency. These talkgroups are NOT monitored by any state MARCS agency. Prior to
using, the user must announce intent to use and determine if objections exist. These
LECOMM talkgroups are specifically for “local” emergency situations, and are only
embedded in non-state agency equipment.
LECOMM 1-8 is generally used in a tactical way. An incident commander would designate
a talkgroup to you based upon the tasks assigned to you during an incident. A scenario
may go like this:
LECOMM 1
LECOMM 2
LECOMM 3
Agencies/individuals working traffic control
Agencies/individuals working search and rescue
Agencies/individuals working evacuation
As indicated above, a designated incident commander would direct you the appropriate
talkgroups.
