8. Hanging up the call: If the call was manually dialed or was incoming, it can be
hung-up by the handheld user by simply pressing the transmit button of the radio
followed with a DTMF- 0 (zero).
Accessing Speed Dials form Radio Handset
The quick-dial mechanism can also be used if any of the quick-dial numbers have been
setup in the SatRADIO.
Dial PIN, then a digit between 0->9 then *, to identify the quick dial number.
The quick dials can be programmed only using the Beam Management System when
connected with a PC to the configuration port.
The quick dials are accessed in the following way:
1. Ensure the quick dial locations have been programmed in the main satellite terminal
2. Enter the PIN from the handset as per above instructions
3. Once acceptance pips received enter a Quick Dial location digit between 0->9 then *,
obviously only those locations that have been preconfigured can be called in this manner.
E.G. if you enter your PIN followed by 2 * this would dial the preset Quick Dial
in location 2.
Answering a call
There are two ways of answering a call on the two-way radio, by either using the DTMF
controls on the handheld to accept the call or if you want all incoming calls answered
automatically then this can be configured on the terminal.
Answering on a Radio
A RING signal will be intermittently transmitted on the Radio channel and the handheld user
can reply to answer the incoming call by sending a DTMF-0 to answer the incoming call.
Note
: The DTMF-0 must be sent in the gap between rings for it to be heard by
SatRADIO.
Note
: The Intelligent handset must be in its cradle to allow signalling to the handheld
radios.
Auto Answer
The firmware can be set to automatically auto-answer an incoming call as long as the Radio
is On.
Note
: Auto answer cannot work concurrently with Autodial being ON
Using Autodial Mode
This mode enables the RST825 to continuously maintain a phone call link to either the last
dialed destination or the Quick Dial position “0” if configured that way. This is ideal for
emergency or disaster recovery situations when the terminal may be being used as a primary
communication tool or a replacement for a Radio link that is down.
