Your radio can make and receive three different types of voice calls:
•PublicGroup –
•Private –
•PrivateGroup –
•Private Reply with Group Call – user receives a group call and replies back with a private call, thus not tying up the whole group.
Private Reply with Group Calls
An end user can create a group such as "Security Only” and privately response to that particular group.
Receiving a Call
When a call is received, the radio chirps and the display shows the call type and transmitting caller’s user ID or name.
