DIAL MODE

Introduction

When placing calls that require a number be dialed (telephone and auxiliary), using the dial mode allows the number to be dialed at any convenient rate, dialing errors to be corrected, and then the radio system to be automatically accessed and number transmitted when desired. The dial mode also allows up to ten 16-digit numbers to be stored in memory and later recalled.

When in the dial mode, the SYS and GRP keys become RCL (Recall) and CLR (Clear) keys. Therefore, the selected system and group cannot be changed when the dial mode is selected. The information which follows describes how the dial mode is used.

Selecting Dial Mode

Selecting Dial Mode and Telephone Group - To select the dial mode and a telephone group in the current system, press FCN PHONE. If there is more than one group programmed for telephone calls in the current system, the first high numbered telephone group is selected. If there is no telephone group or a conventional system is selected, “NO PHONE” is displayed and an error tone sounds.

Selecting Dial Mode Without Changing Selected Group - To select the dial mode without changing the currently selected group, press FCN DIAL. This method should be used when placing auxiliary calls because the auxiliary call group and not the telephone group must be selected.

The dial mode is indicated when the handset portion of the tele- phone icon is displayed. The base portion is displayed when a tele- phone group is selected, and “UID” is displayed when an auxiliary call group is selected.
