Making Calls
Your phone has 10 channels and 15 codes. Channels are
divided into sets of frequencies that allow you to make and
receive Direct Talk calls. Codes help minimize interference
from unwanted messages and other disturbances when you
are on the same channel as others.
Other parties may also be talking on the same channel. When
making a code call, anyone within range and using the same
code and channel can hear your conversation.
To set a channel:
1. From the Direct Talk standby screen, press Edit (right
softkey).
2. Scroll to Channel.
3. Press Edit (right softkey).
4. Select a channel.
5. When you are finished, press Back (right softkey) to
return to the standby screen.
To set a code:
1. From the Direct Talk standby screen, press Edit (right
softkey).
2. Scroll to Code.
3. Press Edit (right softkey).
4. Select a code.
5. When you are finished, press Back (right softkey) to
return to the standby screen.
Note:
Before you and another caller can make Code calls, both of
your phones must be set to Direct Talk and to the same code
and channel.
