Responding to a Transmission During a Vote Scan
During vote scan, your radio stops on a channel/group with the
strongest signal. The radio stays on that channel for a
programmed time period known as “hang time”.
Procedure:
1 Hold the radio vertically 1 to 2 inches (2.5 to 5.0 cm) from
your mouth.
2 Press the PTT button during hang time. The LED lights up
solid green.
3 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.
4 Release the PTT button to listen.
If you do not respond within the hang time, the radio continues
vote scan on other frequencies.
Contacts Settings
Contacts provides “address-book” capabilities on your radio.
Each entry corresponds to an alias or ID that you use to initiate
a call.
Each entry, depending on context, associates with one of five
types of calls: Group Call, Private Call, All Call, PC Call or
Dispatch Call.
PC Call and Dispatch Call are data-related. They are only
available with the applications. Refer to the data applications
documentation for more information.
NOTE: If the Privacy feature is enabled on a channel, you
can make privacy-enabled Group Call, Private Call,
and All Call on that channel. Only target radios with
the same Privacy Key OR the same Key Value and
Key ID as your radio will be able to unscramble the
transmission.
See Privacy on page 76 for more information.
Additionally, Contacts menu allows you to assign each entry to a
programmable number key or more on a keypad. If an entry is
assigned to a number key, your radio can perform a quick dial
on the entry.
