Note:
Other users must share the same programming to be able to receive a
call from the contact list. Once a user exits the contact list selection, the radio
reverts to the channel preset. It does require knowledge of the talk groups and
users when using the contact list method.
Private / Individual Call –
The private or individual call allows a user to call
another user without other users hearing their radio traffic. Private or individual
calling may occur on either a per channel basis, via the contacts list, or manual
dialing as discussed below:
1. Preset
The contacts list is preprogrammed for individual call users from the RX Group
List and TX Contact. User PTT’s on the selected channel to make a private call.
2. Contact List
If the radio is programmed to allow access to the contacts list, the user may
enter the contacts list by pressing the Menu key and navigating to the Contacts
selection. Pressing the select key will provide the user a list of individual unit
ID’s that they may PTT on. Once selected they user may PTT on that individual
UID without leaving the contacts list and make an individual call to that user.
Note:
Other users must share the same programming to be able to receive a
call from the contact list. Once a user exits the contact list selection, the radio
reverts to the channel preset. It does require knowledge of the users when
using the contact list method.
3. Manual Dialing
If the radio is programmed to allow access to manual dialing, the user may
enter the contacts by pressing the Menu key and navigating to Manual Dial.
Once selected, the user may enter the UID for the party to be called via the
DTMF microphone (optional accessory). The PTT is pressed to make the call.
Note:
Once a user exits manual dialing, the radio reverts to the channel preset.
It does require knowledge of the users when using the contact list method.
All Call –
All Call allows a user to call all users on a time slot. It is on the
selected time slot only but will make a call to all talk groups on that time slot. It
is useful for announcement calls from a supervisor or dispatcher. It is a one-way
call.

Preset or Selected from the Menu depending on programming.
2. Receiving an All Call
Upon receipt an All Call, the All Call menu will appear in the display. The user
