TELEPHONE
OPERATION
¥ When the maximum number of digits have
been entered (buffered dial only), the cursor will
disappear.
¥ In the edit mode, the , key functions as a
backspace key. Pressing this key erases the last
digit entered, and moves the cursor to the left.
When the last digit on the display is erased,
additional presses of this key causes the last
member of the preprogrammed telephone list to
be displayed; pressing the / key displays the
Þrst member of the list.
¥ After reaching the number you are calling,
you may need to dial an extension number
before you can reach your party. Here, enter the
extension number from the keypad or (if so pro-
grammed) use the arrow keys to Þnd the exten-
sion number in the telephone list. If you have live
dial, the number is sent as the keys are pressed.
If you have buffered dial, press the PTT switch
again to send out the extension number.
¥ Motorola trunked systems and many conven-
tional telephone patches generate a high-
pitched go-ahead tone when the radio's PTT
switch is released. This is heard by the land-line
party and is an indicator to begin talking.
¥ The conventional telephone feature allows
you to use your conventional radio similar to a
standard telephone. To make a call through the
telephone system, your radio must send access
and hangup codes to the system. Unless other-
wise indicated, the conventional telephone sec-
tions in this manual assume that the access and
hangup codes have been programmed into the
radio by the RSS. These codes will then be auto-
matically transmitted.
