Status Message
Status Message lets you send a pre-defined message to the dispatcher or to
another user’s ID. Up to 10 pre-defined alphanumeric Status Messages are
available such as “AT LUNCH” or ”EN ROUTE”.
You can also send any numeric Status Message from 1-255. A Status Mes-
sage can be sent by selecting both the Status Message and target ID (alias) of
the person who is to receive the Status Message. You can cut talk time to a
minimum by sending Status Messages. You can also leave a Status Message
for receivers while they are away from their radios.
