Trunked Telephone Operation (cont.)

4.When you have finished dialing your number, press the PTT switch. The display shows “PLEASE WAIT” while your radio attempts to access the telephone system.

Notes:

•This is a timed message. If you cannot access the telephone system (no dial tone heard), you will have to press the HOME key or the phone button to hang up, and start again at step 1 of this procedure.

•If you are out of range of the trunked system or the phone interconnect is out of service, “NO PHONE” is displayed and a continuous low-pitched tone sounds.

•If the trunked phone interconnect is in use, a busy tone sounds and “PHONE BUSY” is displayed. Your number will automatically be dialed when the phone interconnect becomes available. If you hang up, you will lose your place in line.

5.If the access was successful, you will hear a dial tone. The display will again show the number dialed.

6.The telephone number will be sent out; you will hear tones as they are being sent. When the number has been completely sent out, you will hear either a busy signal or ringing. If you hear a busy signal, go to step 8 for hang-up procedure.

7.If the party you are calling answers, carry on with your conversation in the normal manner. Press the PTT switch to talk; release the PTT to listen.

Notes:

•After reaching the number you are calling, you may need to dial an extension number before you can reach your party. If this is the case, enter the extension number from the keypad (MTS 2000 III model only) or (if so programmed) use the arrow keys to find the extension number in the telephone list. Press the PTT switch again to send out the extension number.

•Motorola trunked radios generate a high-pitched go-ahead tone when the radio's PTT switch is released. This is heard by the land-line party and is an indicator to begin talking.

8.When you have finished your conversation, or if the number you are calling is busy or does not answer, press the HOME key or the phone button to send the hang-up code. The radio will return to the home display.
