Receiving and Responding to a Radio Call
Once the channel, subscriber
alias or ID, or group alias or ID
is displayed, you can proceed
to receive and respond to
calls.
The green LED lights up
while the radio is transmitting
and blinks when the radio is
receiving.
NOTE: The green LED lights up while the radio is transmitting
and double blinks when the radio is receiving a privacy-
enabled call.
To unscramble a privacy-enabled call, your radio must
have the same Privacy Key, or the same Key Value and
Key ID (programmed by your dealer) as the
transmitting radio (the radio you are receiving the call
from).
See Privacy on page 59 for more information.
Receiving and Responding to a Group Call
To receive a call from a group of users, your radio must be
configured as part of that group.
Procedure:
When you receive a Group Call (while on the Home screen):
1 The green LED blinks.
2 The Group Call icon appears in the top right corner. The first
text line shows the caller alias. The second text line displays
the group call alias.
3 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.
Press the PTT button to respond to the call.
OR
If the Voice Interrupt feature is enabled, press the PTT
button to stop the current call from the transmitting radio and
free the channel for you to talk/respond.
4 The green LED lights up.
5 Wait for the Talk Permit Tone to finish (if enabled) and speak
clearly into the microphone.
OR
Wait for the PTT Sidetone to finish (if enabled) and
speak clearly into the microphone.
