Contacts Settings

Contacts provides “address-book” capabilities on your radio. Each entry corresponds to an alias or ID that you use to initiate a call.

Additionally, each entry, depending on context, associates with one of five types of calls: Group Call, Private Call, All Call, PC Call or Dispatch Call.

PC Call and Dispatch Call are data-related. They are only available with the applications. Refer to the data applications documentation for further details.

NOTE: If the Privacy feature is enabled on a channel, you can make privacy-enabled Group Call, Private Call, and All Call on that channel. Only target radios with the same Privacy Key OR the same Key Value and

Key ID as your radio will be able to unscramble the transmission.

See Privacy on page 50 for more information.

Your radio supports two Contacts lists, one for Analog contacts and one for Digital contacts, with a a maximum of 500 members for each Contacts list.

Each entry within Contacts displays the following information:

•Call Type

•Call Alias

•Call ID

NOTE: You can add, delete, or edit subscriber aliases or IDs for the Digital Contacts list.

For the Analog Contacts list, you can only view the list and initiate a Call Alert. Adding, deleting, and editing capabilities can only be performed by your dealer.
