TELEPHONE CALLS AND OTHER SPECIAL CALLS

3. Dial the 4-8 digit number using the microphone keypad. Refer to step
4 on page 22 for more information.
4. A tone then sounds to indicate that the call was accepted by the system.
If this tone does not sound, an incorrect or unauthorized number may
have been dialed. The call then proceeds as follows:
Unique ID Call -
Ringing is heard to indicate that the other transceiver
is being rung. If there is no answer, ringing automatically stops after
several rings and the call is terminated. When the other party answers,
respond as with a standard call.
Directed Group Call -
A second tone sounds to indicate that the path
is complete and you should transmit your message. No ringing occurs
and the other party does not answer first.
5. When the call is finished, it should be terminated by pressing the # key.
Three beeps indicate that the call has been terminated.
Receiving Other Multi-Net Special Calls
When a Unique ID call is received, a ringing tone sounds similar to
when a telephone call is received. Unique ID calls are received regardless
of which group is selected. All that is required is that a system
programmed for that call must be selected. To respond to a unique ID
call, you may need to manually select the unique ID group if it is not
selected automatically or some other group is displayed when the PTT
switch is pressed.
To receive and respond to a Directed Group call, the group
programmed with the ID code being sent must be selected. This call is
handled the same as the standard call described on page 20. No ringing
occurs, and an incoming call is indicated when you hear the voice of the
person placing the call.
