Making a Private Call

While you can receive and/or respond to a Private Call initiated by an authorized individual radio, your radio must be programmed for you to initiate a Private Call.

There are two types of Private Calls. The first type, where a radio presence check is performed prior to setting up the call, while the other sets up the call immediately.

Only one of these call types can be programmed to your radio by your dealer.

You hear a negative indicator tone, when you make a Private Call via the Contacts list, Call Log, One Touch Access button, the programmed number keys, if this feature is not enabled.

Use the Text Message or Call Alert features to contact an individual radio. See Text Message Features on page 57 or Call Alert Operation on page 50 for more information.

Procedure:

1Select the channel with the active individual alias or ID. See Selecting a Channel on page 23.

OR

Press the programmed One Touch Access button.

2To respond, hold the radio vertically 1 to 2 inches (2.5 to 5.0 cm) from your mouth.

3Press the PTT button to make the call. The LED lights up solid green, the radio unmutes and the response sounds through the radio’s speaker. The Private Call icon appears on the top right corner. The first text line shows the subscriber alias. The second text line displays the call status.

4Wait for the Talk Permit Tone to finish (if enabled) and speak clearly into the microphone.

5Release the PTT button to listen. When the target radio responds, the LED blinks green, the radio unmutes and the response sounds through the radio's speaker.

6If the Channel Free Indication feature is enabled, you will hear a short alert tone the moment the target radio releases the PTT button, indicating the channel is free for you to respond. Press the PTT button to respond.
