STANDARD CALLS

successfully accessed. If it is not enabled, no tone sounds when the system is successfully accessed. The proceed and other tones can be disabled as described in “Tone Select” on page 32.

If the radio system is busy, the busy tone sounds (see page 54) and “BUSY” is indicated on the lower line of the display. If you continue pressing the PTT switch, the system is accessed when it becomes available. With Multi-Net operation, if Busy Queuing is programmed, the call is automatically placed in a queue when the PTT switch is released (see page 43).

If an out-of-range condition exists, the intercept tone sounds (see page 54) and “OUT-RNGE” is indicated on the lower line of the display. No more access attempts are made once this indication appears. Release the PTT switch and drive closer to the radio system or away from shielding structures and try again. With Multi-Net operation, if Roaming is programmed (see page 44), the transceiver automatically changes sites before an out-of-range condition occurs.

Conventional Operation

If the channel is busy and the Transmit Disable On Busy feature is programmed, “DSBL BSY” is indicated on the lower line of the display, the busy tone sounds, and the transmitter is disabled (see page 51).

Otherwise, busy and out-of-range conditions are not indicated and speaking can begin when the PTT switch is pressed after monitoring the channel. If the proceed tone is enabled on conventional systems, it indicates when speaking can begin but does not indicate that the radio system has been successfully accessed.

5.When the call is complete, place the microphone back on-hook.
