Sending An Individual Call
The DSC Individual call feature allows you to notify one (1), and only one (1),
station that you want to communicate with that station. The DSC Individual call does
not alert all other stations within range.
To Send An Individual Call:
1. In Standby mode, select a channel on which you
want to communicate.
2. Press the Call/Set button to enter the Call Send menu.
3. Use the Up/Down buttons to scroll to
INDIVIDUAL.
4. Press the Call/Set button to move to the individual directory.
5. Use the Up/Down buttons to select the name you
want to call from the directory.
6. Press the Call/Set button to send the message or
return to Standby mode if
EXIT was chosen.
If the radio you are calling sends back an automatic DSC
response of “able to comply,” the individual alarm will sound.
Wait for a voice message from the called station.
If the called radio does not send an “able to comply”
response, your radio will wait eight (8) seconds and
resend the message.
If an “unable to comply” response or no reply is received,
your radio will go to the Unavailable menu.
At the Unavailable menu, you can choose
SEND or
EXIT with the Up/Down buttons. If you choose SEND,
your radio will restart the individual call. If you choose
EXIT, you will be returned to the individual location
on the Call Send menu.
