INDIVIDUAL CALLS

Receiving and Responding To An Individual Call

When the radio receives an individual call (a call directed only to the user's radio), it unmutes on the assigned working channel and turns on the BSY indicator. Line one shows ID followed by the logical ID number of the unit sending the message, or the associated name if the ID number is found in the individual call list. The individual call indicator display *INDV* is displayed on line two. The radio can be programmed to ring when an individual call is received. If enabled, the ring begins five seconds after the

caller unkeys and will continue until the PTT button, the c button, or iis pressed.

NOTE

Hookswitch functions the same as ckey in I-CALL, phone call, and menu modes.

If a response is made to the call prior to the programmed call-back time-out, the call will automatically be directed to the originating unit. If a response is not made before the call-back time-out, the radio will return to normal receive mode, but * WHC * will be displayed. If the caller's ID is not received, UNKNOWN will display for the duration of the call and there will be no call-back hangtime.

To respond after the call-back time-out, press the ikey. The radio's display will show the callers ID on the first line and WHCI=1 on the second line. Pressing the PTT button at this point will initiate an individual call back to the original caller. (If the last call was a group call, the display will show WHCG=1. Pressing the PTT button will place the call as an individual call.)
