When you receive a group call, the folder and group names, the
caller’s name or number, and
(receiving) are displayed in the idle
mode. Also a group call starting tone can be played, if your
organisation has defined it.
When nobody is speaking during a group call,
is displayed if the
call comes from your selected group, and
is displayed if the call
comes from a scanned group.
Tip:
You can use the menu when you are listening to a group
call.
Respond to a group call
Press and hold the PTT key while the group name is displayed.
If you have set the PTT key to always make a call to the selected
group, the call is made to the selected group even if another group
name is displayed; see PTT key settings on page 43. To make a call
to another group, first set it as the selected group; see Select a talk
group on page 41.
If the call indicator has changed to
or
, the call has been
disconnected, and pressing and holding the PTT key will start a new
call to the group.
To queue for your turn to talk during a group call, press and hold the
PTT key (network service). A queuing tone is played, and
displayed. You can start speaking after a short tone is played and
appears on the display. To stop queuing, release the PTT key.
Tip:
You can also respond to a group call when you are using
the menu.
Voice override
With voice override (network service), you can override the
communication in the talk group and avoid the need to queue for
your turn to speak. If you have a right to use voice override, the
selection key
is available when the radio receives group
calls.
