is
displayed, press h or the PTT
button to hang up. The radio
returns to the home display.
Notes: • You might need to dial an extension number after you
reach the number you called.
• A high-pitched tone, generated when you release the PTT
button, indicates to the landline party that he or she may
begin talking.
• You have the option of sending additional digits (overdial),
such as credit card or PIN numbers, to the phone system. If
the radio is programmed for live overdial, every digit entered
after the call is connected is sent to the phone system.
• If the radio is programmed for buffered overdial, the digits
pressed are entered into memory and then sent when the
PTT button is pressed. Press the PTT to send either digits
or voice, but not both at the same time.
