Basics
Group calls (network service) are immediate one-way calls within a
talk group. They are connected without the recipients answering.
You can select one talk group you primarily want to communicate
with, and other talk groups whose calls you want to scan. You may
receive calls made to your selected group even when you are
engaged in a call with a scanned group that has a low or medium
scanning priority.
Scanning (network service) allows you to follow the calls going on in
several talk groups. The scanned groups may have different
scanning priorities, and a group with a high scanning priority can
interrupt a call you are having with another scanned group.
To access the talk groups in the selected folder, use the group
selector or press
in the idle mode.
To communicate with a talk group, you must have access rights to
communicate with it, and you must be in the geographical area
where communication with the group is possible.
Restricted group coverage
may be displayed in the beginning of a
group call if all required network resources are not obtained. Your
organisation may define whether this feature is on or off.
Note that you may hear a beep tone and see
Imminent call
disconnection
displayed when the network is going to end an
ongoing call.
