MAKING INDIVIDUAL CALLS (APCO)

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

1Press the key programmed as Individual.

2Press the GRP and keys or rotate the CH control to select a unit ID from the list that has been pre-entered into your transceiver.

Alternatively, you can directly enter a unit ID by using a DTMF keypad.

The target unit ID/name appears on the display.

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

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

RECEIVING

1Select the desired zone and channel using the GRP and keys and the CH control.

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

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 25 for details.

RECEIVING GROUP CALLS (APCO)

When you receive a call on your group channel and the received group ID matches the ID set up on your transceiver, you can hear the caller’s voice. Readjust the volume as necessary.

RECEIVING INDIVIDUAL CALLS (APCO)

When you receive an individual call, a ringing tone will sound and the display will show the caller’s ID. To respond to the call, press and hold the microphone PTT switch and speak into the transceiver as you would during a normal transmission.
