Entries for a contact
Contact name
A contact is a person for whom you want to store pre-defined call information. One
contact may have several different methods of being called. The name of the contact
is the label identifying this bundle of information. Typically, it is the person’s name.
You can enter up to 32 characters to uniquely identify the person.
NOTE: The number of characters that you can enter varies with the language.
Calls for a contact
Each contact must have information for at least one call associated with it. A call for
a contact bundles the information required by the transceiver to call that contact by a
particular method. For example, you may want to call Bob (contact), and send the call
to the transceiver in his vehicle, or, you may want to communicate with him via a
Message call (call type). You can supply all of the information required to make the
call, or you can be prompted for information at the time of making the call.
