T2T call types

You can make two types of walkie-talkie calls:

A T2T call automatically connects to the other party. The receiving party does not have the option to ignore the call. It can be

a private T2T call to a single T2T user, or

a group T2T call to more than one T2T user.

A T2T alert sends the receiving party a text message and a message alert beep to indicate that someone wants to speak with them. The receiving party has the option to either answer or ignore the call. T2T alerts are private calls only.

Select Menu Recent Calls, select a list (Incoming Calls, Outgoing Calls, or

Missed Calls), highlight a call, and press the walkie-talkie button.

2.Listen for the “Ready to Speak” tone (three rapid chirps).

Note: If the contact is unavailable or offline, a message appears on the phone’s screen.

3.Speak while pressing the walkie-talkie button.

4.Release the walkie-talkie button when finished speaking. This allows the called party to reply.

5.Wait for the “Ready to Speak” tone, then press the walkie-talkie button again to speak.

6.To end the T2T call, press . If the other party ends the call, no action is required.

Tip: If you originate a call to a person who is actively engaged in a cellular call or a T2T call, you hear the “Ready to Speak” tone and your voice message is stored. The other party can choose to answer or ignore the new incoming call. If they answer the call, they will hear your voice message, and then you and the other party will hear the “Floor Free” tone (a single high-pitched beep).
