TELEPHONE CALLS AND OTHER SPECIAL CALLS
23
Receiving a Telephone Call
1. Turn transceiver power on and set the volume as described starting on
page 15.
2. Select or scan the system and group programmed for telephone calls.
When a telephone or Multi-Net special call group is selected,
is
displayed.
3. When “ringing” is heard, press the PTT switch and respond. The PTT
switch must be pressed to talk and released to listen the same as with
standard calls.
4. When the call is finished, it should be terminated as in step 7 of the
preceding section.
Placing Other Multi-Net Special Calls
Multi-Net special calls include the telephone calls just described and
also Unique ID and Directed Group calls. Unique ID calls are to specific
mobiles, and Directed Group calls are to specific groups. These calls can
be placed to other users assigned to your site or some other site that is
part of the same network.
As with telephone calls, a microphone with a telephone keypad is
required to dial the number specifying the mobile being called. The
numbers dialed are 4-8 digits long, and they will be provided by your
system operator. The procedure used to place these calls is as follows:
1. Select the system and group programmed for Unique ID and Directed
Group calls. When one of these groups or a telephone group is selected,
is displayed.The group alpha tag displayed on the lower line may
also indicate when one of these groups is selected.
2. Briefly press the PTT switch to obtain a dial tone. The procedure is
similar to that used with telephone calls, and the Busy Queuing and
Roaming features are available if programmed. Refer to step 4 near the
bottom of page 19 for more information.
