Facilities available to the HF station
For more detailed information on how to call the interconnect using Barrett 500
series,900 series or 2000 series transceivers refer to the relevant transceiver
operation manuals.
Sending a beacon request
To receive a beacon revertive from the 2060 interconnect, send a Selcall to the ID
xx99, where xx is the self ID of the interconnect (for 6 digit calls us xxxx99 where
the ID of the interconnect is xxxx). For example, Selcall 4599 will receive a beacon
revertive from the interconnect with self ID of 45.
Sending a Selcall - dialling a preset phone number
To dial one of the interconnect preset phone numbers (0-98), send a Selcall to the
interconnect with the preset number to dial. For example, Selcall 4501 will dial
preset number 1, Selcall 4587 will dial preset number 87 etc, on a 2060
interconnect with Self ID of 45. In a 6 digit call the pre-dialled numbers are still the
last 2 digits (ie: 123404 will dial pre-dial number 04).
The HF station sending the Selcall must have a relevant access level assigned to
their Selcall number to permit dialling to a preset phone number.
Sending a Telcall - dialling a telephone number
To make a telephone call, enter the self ID of the 2060 to be used via the numeric
key pad.
Refer to the relevant transceiver manual on sending Telcalls from the transceiver.
All of the information needed by the 2060 to connect the transceiver to the required
telephone number is sent to the 2060 along with the Selcall information.
Terminating a call
When a call has been completed, the caller must hang up by sending a "hang up"
code to the 2060. Or, by the phone user entering "99” from the telephone keypad.
Sending an ALE call
ALE calls may be sent to Interconnects fitted with the ALE option. The transceiver
must also be fitted with an ALE option.
Please refer to the Barrett transceiver user manual for information on ALE calling.
