Procedure:
When you receive a Selective Call:
1The LED blinks green.
2Hold the radio vertically 1 to 2 inches (2.5 to 5.0 cm) from your mouth. Your radio unmutes and the incoming call sounds through the radio's speaker.
3If the Channel Free Indication feature is enabled, you hear a short alert tone the moment the transmitting radio releases the PTT button, indicating the channel is free for you to respond.
4Press the PTT button to respond to the call. The LED lights up solid green.
5Wait for the Talk Permit Tone to finish (if enabled) and speak clearly into the microphone.
6Release the PTT button to listen.
7If there is no voice activity for a predetermined period of time, the call ends.
8You hear a short tone.
See Making a Selective Call on page 19 for details on making a Selective Call.
Receiving an All Call
An All Call is a call from an individual radio to every radio on the channel. It is used to make important announcements requiring the user’s full attention.
Procedure:
When you receive an All Call:
1A tone sounds and the LED blinks green. Your radio unmutes and the incoming call sounds through the radio's speaker.
2If there is no voice activity for a predetermined period of time, the All Call ends. An All Call does not wait for a predetermined period of time before ending.
If the Channel Free Indication feature is enabled, you
hear a short alert tone the moment the transmitting radio releases the PTT button, indicating the channel is now available for use.
You cannot respond to an All Call.
NOTE: The radio stops receiving the All Call if you switch to a different channel while receiving the call.
During an All Call, you are not able to use any programmed button functions until the call ends.
