Receiving a Call

Conventional Modes

1.Turn the radio on and select the desired zone and mode (see “Selecting a Zone and Mode”).

2.Listen until you hear a transmission, then adjust the volume control for a comfortable listening level.

Or, if a button is programmed for “volume set,” press this button and adjust the volume to a comfortable listening level.

Notes:

•The squelch opening level setting may be reprogrammed at an authorized service facility.

•MTS 2000 SECURENET-equipped radios automatically determine whether a SECURENET or clear voice message is being received. This allows you to receive either type of message without having to reset the two-position concentric switch.

3.Your radio is now set to receive calls on the selected mode.

4.Refer to the Coded Squelch paragraph of the “General Radio Features Operation” section for Tone Private-Line®(PL), Digital Private-Line™ (DPL) operation.

Note: A mode-busy feature is available; the red LED will blink when your radio is receiving to indicate that the mode is busy. The radio will not unmute if the mode is busy with a coded-squelch message that is not intended for you (see “Coded Squelch Operation”).
