Making Selective Calls by Using the
Channel Selector Knob
Just like a Private Call, while you can receive and/or
respond to a Selective Call initiated by an authorized
individual radio, your radio must be programmed for you to
initiate a Selective Call.
1 Select the channel with the active subscriber alias or
ID.
2 Press the PTT button to make the call.
The display shows the Private Call icon at the top
right corner. The first text line shows the caller alias.
The second text line shows the call status.
3 Do one of the following:
• Wait for the Talk Permit Tone to end and speak
clearly into the microphone if enabled.
• Wait for the PTT Sidetone to end and speak
clearly into the microphone if enabled.
4 Release the PTT button to listen.
The green LED blinks when the target radio
responds.
5
If the Channel Free Indication feature is enabled,
you hear a short alert tone the moment the
transmitting radio releases the PTT button, indicating
the channel is free for you to respond.
The call ends when there is no voice activity for a
predetermined period.
A tone sounds. The display shows Call Ended.

If Phone Call capability is not enabled in your radio:
