Making calls
To make a call:
1 Select the required zone (see "Selecting a zone"
on page 53).
2 Select the required channel (see "Selecting a
channel" on page 54).
3 Hold the radio so that the microphone is about
one inch (2.5 cm) from your mouth and press the
PTT key to transmit.
If the channel is busy, you may not be able to
transmit. Wait until the status LED has stopped
glowing green, and then try again.
4 Speak clearly into the microphone and release the
PTT key when you have finished talking.
While you are transmitting the LED glows red and
appears in the display.
5 Finish your conversation as soon as possible and
release the PTT key. For a short time, your radio
may prevent you from making a call.
Making an individual call
This feature is available for digital channels only.
To make a call to one person rather than a group of
people:
1 Press
Menu and select Individual call. (The person
to whom you last made an individual call is
highlighted.)
(Depending on how your radio is programmed, you
may be able to press a function key or use your
Quick Access menu to select individual calls.)
