6. Phone calls
Phone calls (network service) are like conventional telephone calls. They can
be made to TETRA network and public telephone network numbers.
Phone calls are normally two-way calls, but your radio is also capable of
making and receiving one-way phone calls in case the other party’s terminal
cannot make or receive two-way calls.
If you receive an express call when you are not using the loudspeaker, you
will receive the call like a phone call, with the radio alerting you. This is to
make sure that you do not miss the call. Use the PTT key when you speak
during a one-way call.
One-way and two-way calls have different ringing tones. You can change the
tones in the
submenu. See Profiles on page 86.
An ongoing individual call may be disconnected automatically due to a higher
priority group call if your organisation has pre-configured the radio to allow
that.
Note that you may hear a beep tone and see
displayed when the network is going to end an ongoing call.
