Available is a one-way group voice announcement to all
users in different channels who are not currently tied up in
an ongoing radio conversation
16
.
Any user who wants to respond to a Page All Available
transmission can do so by replying privately (by pressing
the
Top
button before talking). The Page All Available
feature is set up this way to avoid all users getting tied up
in an unwanted ongoing group conversation.
Once the user transmitting in Page All Available mode
stops transmitting by releasing the
PTT
button, the Page All
Available mode is terminated. Page All Available option can
be assigned either to the
Top
button or to an extra
channel

.
Application Example 1
An employee in a retail shop uses a DLR1060 (six channel
radio) with the
Top
button programmed to Private Reply
and Channel 6 programmed to Page All Available feature.
This employee is looking for anyone (in any of the group
radio channels) who can come over to help out in the back
room. The employee changes to the Page All Available
channel before pressing the
PTT
button and asks “Can
someone come over to the back room to help out?”.
Whoever is available in any of the radio channels can
privately reply to the employee to ask for more details or to
confirm that they are available to help.
Application Example 2
Anna needs to talk privately to another user (John) and she
is not sure in which channel to find him. It is cumbersome
to browse all channels to search for John. Anna uses a
DLR1060 (six channel radio) with the
Top
button
programmed to Private Reply and Channel 6 programmed
to Page All Available feature. She switches to Channel 6
and asks “John Smith, are you available?”
If John is available, he can reply privately (by pressing the
Top
button). If no response is heard, it means that he is
busy in another radio call or is not within the
communication range.

This feature does not interrupt ongoing communications.
