Example:
You wish to call a group of users on the current channel (REGION2) with numbers
which all begin with 37, and have three more digits. After you have selected channel REGION
2, the sequence of keystrokes, and the corresponding display characters that appear, is as
follows:
●
Your T2020
II
may be programmed to queue incoming calls. If this feature is enabled,
the callers identity is put in the queue after the ringing stops. All other call indicators are
cleared when the received call has been queued. (Refer to the section Call Queuing for
more information.)
●
If the call was not queued and you are still unable to answer the call, the radio indicates
that a call was received in your absence by leaving the
CALL
indicator flashing.
●
If you do not wish to answer a call, the ringing may be cancelled at any time by pressing
any of the control head keys. (The function associated with the key you press will not be
invoked.) Note that if the callers identity was displayed and the call was still not an-
swered, pressing the
Enter
(
) key clears the call and initiates an immediate call-
back to the caller.
●
If you are one of the recipients of a group call, your radio only sounds a single sequence
of the ringing tone,
burr burr
. The caller then broadcasts a message to all members of
your group.
When the group call has been sent, there is no acknowledging tone from any of the other
users. Wait a few seconds after the
TX
indicator in the display window disappears and then
broadcast your message. Phrase your message in such a way that it requires no acknowledge-
ment, since the other users cannot all reply at once.
Receiving a Selcall Call
When you receive a Selcall call, the
CALL
indicator flashes and a ringing tone (similar to that
of a telephone) sounds from the speaker.
Note:
Your T2020
II
may be programmed to display the
callers identity when you receive a call. Consult your
Tait dealer for more information on this feature.
●
To answer the call, lift the microphone off-hook and iden-
tify yourself. As soon as you operate the
PTT
key, the
ringing tone stops.
●
If you do not answer the call within a short time, the ringing
tone stops. The radio may then switch on another alerting
device (e.g. the horn in your car) to attract your attention.
