Selective Call is enabled or disabled by your dealer. This function is similar to
Code Squelch {page 14}. The differences from Code Squelch are:
•
You can send or receive message codes containing a maximum of 5 digits.
•
Selective Call turns the squelch OFF only when the transceiver receives a predetermined
DTMF code in the correct sequence:
1) A 3-digit ID code
2) A 1-digit Intermediate code
3) A message code (up to 5 digits)
Your dealer may also activate Group Call for your transceiver. This is useful
when you want to pass information to a number of units in a fleet. Ask your
dealer for details.
Note: Selective Call cannot be used on channels programmed with Code Squelch or 2-Tone Signalling.
RECEIVING
When you receive the correct ID and Intermediate codes, squelch turns OFF and
you will hear the call. If a message code is also received, the message appears
on the display
•
“CALL” appears on the display and the LED indicator flashes orange.
•
When you receive a call with your ID code, “C” appears on the display (i.e.- C 12345).
•
When you receive a call with your Group code, “A” appears on the display (i.e.- A 12345).
•
When no message is received, “NO DATA” appears on the display.
•
You can clear a message by pressing any key other than the IO switch.
•
To mute the speaker after squelch turns OFF, press the key programmed as Monitor.
•
Your dealer can program squelch to automatically turn back ON after a specific time period
elapses.
•
If Transpond for Selective Call is programmed, an acknowledgment signal is returned to
the calling station. Transpond does not function when you are called with a Group code.
Transpond for Selective Call can send an alert tone, a transceiver ID code, or a code
stored in memory location 1.
•
If Call Alert for Selective Call is programmed, an alert tone will sound when the correct
code is received.
