Trunking Operation
Note: If the number contains a programmed pause, the dialing
pauses briefly when
P is displayed. After the brief pause, the
rest of the numbers are dialed.
4 When your party answers,
press the PTT button to talk,
and release it to listen.
Note: If you are out of range of the trunked system, NO PHONE is
displayed, and a continuous low-pitched tone sounds. Press
the HOME or Phon button to resume normal operation.
If the trunked phone interconnect is in use or the phone
interconnect is out of service, a telephone-type busy tone
sounds, and the display shows
PHON BSY (W7) or PHONE
BUSY
(W9). Your number is automatically dialed when the
phone interconnect becomes available. If you hang up, you
lose your place in the queue.
If
PHON BSY (W7) or PHONE BUSY (W9) is displayed with a
low-pitched tone rather than a telephone-type busy tone, the
call is not queued. You must hang up and try again.
If your radio is programmed for live overdial, every digit
pressed after the phone call is established is sent to the
telephone system.
If your radio is programmed for buffered overdial, the digits
pressed are entered into the radio’s memory, and they are all
sent together when the PTT button is next pressed. You
cannot send digits and talk on the same PTT button press. If
you press the PTT button to send the digits, you must
release the PTT button and press it again to transmit.
5 When the call is completed,
press the HOME or Phon
button to hang up and return
to normal operation.
