Call Received
If programmed, a single alert tone sounds when a group call is received and a two tone alert (one high followed by one low tone) is sounded for an individual call.
Call Queued (EDACS Only)
If one short, high pitched tone sounds after the transmitter is keyed, this indicates that the system has placed the request in a queue. This tone sounds at both the transmitting unit and the receiving unit(s), indicating to the user on the receiving end that they will receive a call shortly. If the PTT is unkeyed while in the queue, the radio will autokey (automatically key the PTT) when a channel becomes available (see AUTOKEY below).
Autokey (EDACS Only)
When the PTT is keyed to place a call on the system, but the PTT is released before getting to the channel (e.g. a queued call), the radio auto- matically keys on the channel when it gets the assignment. The radio generates a long beep and holds the transmitter keyed for two seconds. Pressing the PTT button keeps the channel and sends the message before this two second
System Busy
EDACS - If you key the PTT bar and hear three short, medium pitched tones, this indicates that the receiving party is already engaged in another call or the system is busy and its queue is full. You must rekey later to access the system.
Call Denied (EDACS Only)
A single low pitch beep will sound when the PTT switch is keyed and the request is denied by the system. This happens if the unit is an invalid user or if the unit is requesting an unavailable service.
