43Trunked Radio Features Operation (cont.)
Enhanced Private Conversation™ Call Operation (900 MHz, VHF, UHF)
The Enhanced Private Conversation feature not only allows you to carry on a conversation that is heard only by the two parties involved, but also enables you to determine whether the radio that you are calling is in service. The radio being called can also view the calling radio's ID number before answering. You can then choose whether or not to leave your radio’s ID number (via a Call Alert page) with the radio you are calling so that you may be called back. Enhanced Private Conversation operation is similar to telephone operation.
Answering a Private Conversation Call
1.When your radio receives a Private Conversation call, you will hear two alert tones (repeating every five seconds for 20 seconds), and the display will alternate between “CALL RECEIVED” and the home display. The green LED and call received status annunciator flash to indicate that a call is being received. You will have 20 seconds to answer the call before the radio automatically returns to the home display.
2.Press the call response button (normally side button 3). The display will show the incoming caller’s ID number, and the call received annunciator will turn off. After viewing the caller’s ID number, you can decide to either talk privately (go to step 3), or not answer the call by letting the remainder of the 20 seconds elapse and returning to the home display.
Note: If you press the PTT switch before you press the call response button, the response will be transmitted to everyone in the talkgroup.
3.If you decide to answer the call, press the PTT switch to carry on a Private Conversation with the caller. The caller’s ID number will remain on the display for the duration of the call.
4.When you have finished your conversation, press the HOME key to hang up. The caller’s ID number is stored as the “last ID number received,” and the radio returns to the home display.
