PLACING AN INTERCONNECT OR DISPATCH OVERDIAL CALL
There are four different ways to place an interconnect or dispatch overdial call.
1.
To place a dispatch overdial call the user must first press the
key and then the key. [OVERDIAL] will be displayed. The user
must then manually dial the dispatch ID (2 or 4 tone sequence; e.g., [
-1809] or [18092310]). The sequence will be preceded by the overdial
prompt [—]. Then press the key.
2.
The key can be pressed which will automatically redial the last
phone number or dispatch ID.
3.
The user can recall previously stored dispatch IDs and phone numbers from
memory and then press the key.
4.
The user can remove the handset from its holder (preprogrammed option).
If a dispatch overdial number was not entered, prior to removing the handset
from the holder, the radio will acquire a channel. After the channel has
been acquired, recall or enter the desired number and press the key.
If entering a dispatch number takes more than 5 seconds, depress the PTT
switch periodically to keep the channel active while the ID sequence is
being entered.
ENDING A CALL
The call can be ended three ways:
1.
Pressing the key.
2.
A system disconnect or time out occurs. During a dispatch call the time out
occurs after 6 seconds of channel silence. During an interconnect call the
time out occurs after 30 seconds of channel silence.
3.
Returning the handset to the holder (a pre-programmed option).
