Making Individual Calls (P25) (K2/K3/K5/K6/K7 models only)

If a key has been programmed with Individual, you can make calls to specified persons.

1 Press the key programmed as Individual.

2 Press the Side 2 and Side 3 keys to select a unit ID from the list that has been pre-entered into your transceiver.

On K3/K6 model transceivers, you can enter a unit ID by pressing the DTMF keypad instead.

The target unit ID/name appears on the display.

3Press and hold the PTT switch to make the call.

Speak into the transceiver as you would during a normal transmission.

On Trunking channels, a ringing tone will sound and the display will alternate between the called unit ID/name and “CALLING”.

4On Trunking channels, to end the call, press the Side 1 key or the keypad # key.

Receiving

1Select the desired zone and channel using the selector knob and the Zone Up/ Zone Down or Channel Up/ Channel Down keys. (If the Scan function has been programmed, you can switch it on or off as desired.)

2When you hear a caller’s voice, readjust the volume as necessary.

If the vibrator function is on, the transceiver will vibrate when a call is received.

If signaling has been programmed on the selected channel, you will hear a call only if the signal tone matches the tone set up on your transceiver.

Note: Signaling allows your transceiver to code your calls. This will prevent you from listening to unwanted calls. It does not make calls private, it only prevents them from being heard by transceivers set with a different signaling code. Refer to “SIGNALING” on page 39 for details.
