The Address List
152 2110 SSB Transceiver Reference Manual
Making several different types of calls
If you want to make several different types of calls in succession you need to create an
entry in the Address List for each different type of call you want to make, and name the
entries Emergency 1, Emergency 2, Emergency 3 and so on.
When you press , the transceiver calls the station (or stations) specified in the
Emergency 1 entry, then pauses for about 10 seconds. It then calls the station in the
Emergency 2 entry, and so on, until it calls the station in the last Emergency entry. Calls
made this way are referred to as chain calls.
When the transceiver pauses between calls it displays the seconds remaining in the pause
at the top right of the screen, as shown in Figure 29.
Figure 29: The front panel screen during a chain call
You can terminate a chain call by pressing PTT. If you press PTT during:
• an Emergency or Selective call, you can continue with the current call but the chain
call itself is terminated (that is, the transceiver will not call the next Emergency
entry)
• a call in which data is being sent to another station (for example, a Message call), the
current call and chain call are terminated
You can also terminate a chain call by pressing any key. The exceptions to this are that:
• you can press to remove messages on the screen, and press and to adjust
the volume at any time, without terminating the call
• if you are prompted to select and/or enter details about the call (for example, a
channel/mode), you can press any keys to do so without terminating the call
NOTE
This capability is available for use in Codan Selcall networks, enabling
you to make different types of calls, or even the same call type on several
channels.
In ALE/CALM networks, the channel selection is typically done
automatically, so it is not necessary to set up the Emergency entries in the
Address List to make chain calls.
NOTE
If you want to make a call that sends data and a call that enables you to
speak to an operator, set up the Emergency entries to make the data call
first: once you press PTT to speak to an operator, the chain call is
terminated.
