Making a Call with the Volume/Channel Knob
Making a Group Call
To make a call to a group of users, your radio must be
configured as part of that group.
Procedure:
1 Press the Volume/Channel Knob to enter the channel
selection state.
2 Turn the knob to select the channel with the active group
alias or ID.
3 Press the PTT button to make the call. The green LED lights
up. The Group Call icon appears in the top right corner. The
first text line shows the group call alias.
4 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.
5 Release the PTT button to listen. When the target radio
responds, the green LED blinks. You see the Group Call
icon, the group alias or ID, and transmitting radio alias
or ID on your display.
6 If the Channel Free Indication feature is enabled, you
hear a short alert tone the moment the target radio releases
the PTT button, indicating the channel is free for you to
respond. Press the PTT button to respond.
OR
If there is no voice activity for a predetermined period of
time, the call ends.
7 Radio returns to the screen you were on prior to initiating the
call.
You can also make a Group Call via Contacts (see Making a
Group Call from Contacts on page 35).
