Receiving and Making Calls

Making a Private Call
While you can receive and/or respond to a Private Call
initiated by an authorized individual radio, your radio must
be programmed for you to initiate a Private Call.
You will hear a negative indicator tone, when you make a
Private Call via the Menu, Call Log, Contacts list, One Touch
Access button, the programmed number keys, Scroll Up/
Down buttons, or the Volume/Channel Knob if this feature is
not enabled.
Use the Text Message or Call Alert features to contact an
individual radio. See Text Messaging Features on page 52 or
Call Alert Operation on page 46 for more information.
Procedure:
1 Press the Volume/Channel Knob to enter the channel
selection state.
1 Turn the knob to select the channel with the active
subscriber alias or ID.
2 Press the PTT button to make the call. The green LED lights
up. The first line displays the subscriber alias or ID. The
second line displays Private Call and the Private Call
icon.
3 Wait for the Talk Permit Tone to finish (if enabled) and speak
clearly into the microphone.
4 Release the PTT button to listen. When the target radio
responds, the green LED blinks.
5 If the Channel Free Indication feature is enabled, you will
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.
6 You hear a short tone. The display shows Call Ended.
You can also make a Private Call via Contacts (see Making a
Private Call from Contacts on page 38), manually dial a
Private Call (see Making a Private Call by Manual Dial on
page 82) or perform a quick alphanumeric search for the
required target alias via a keypad entry (see Making a Group,
Private, Phone or All Call by Alias Search on page 84).
