Making a phone call
This feature is only available for radios with
alphanumeric keys.
You may be able to use your radio to connect to a
telephone network and make a phone call.
Caution In some situations, your call will not
proceed. For an explanation of the radio behavior, see
"Unconnected calls" on page 86.
To make a phone call on a trunking system:
1 Press Menu and select Phone call. (The phone
call you last dialed appears in the display.)
(Depending on how your radio is programmed, you
may be able to press a function key or use your
Quick Access menu to open the Phone Call menu.)
2 Scroll to the number or person you want to call, or
dial the required number using the alphanumeric
keys.
3 Press Select or the PTT key.
Call progress will be indicated by “ring” or “busy”
tones as for a standard telephone call.
4 When the call is answered, proceed with your
conversation.
5 At the completion of the call, or if the dialed number
is busy or does not answer, press the End left
selection key.
