:
1 Enter the full number of the required party using the
numeric keypad and then press the Hash ( )
key to send the call.
2 Enter a two-digit short dial preset number using the
numeric keypad and then press the Hash ( )
key to send the call.
3 Use the Despatcher ( ) and Function ( )
keys which may each be preprogrammed to send a
call directly, when you apply a long press. The
Despatcher ( ) key is usually preprogrammed
to call your base despatcher.
4 Use an alphanumeric label to select a call identity
(see “Alphanumeric Entry mode”).
You may hear call setup tones followed by a ringing tone
similar to that of a telephone, and the WAIT indicator
may be displayed. When the called party answers, the
WAIT indicator is replaced by the GO indicator and you
may proceed with your conversation.
Using the
Microphone
and PTT key The PTT key on the side of the microphone switches the
radio between transmit and receive modes.
Each time the radio transmits, the TX indicator appears
in the display.
To speak, press the PTT key. Hold the microphone
about 5cm from your mouth and pause briefly to ensure
your first word is not cut off, then speak clearly. Release
it to listen to the reply.
