2-12.3.4.9 Transmitting AnyCalls
An AnyCall is a general broadcast which your radio uses to simultaneously establish links with other
stations. An AnyCall can also include a message.
NOTE
If so required, you can set your radio so that it cannot send AnyCalls.
AnyCall is somewhat similar to AllCall, except that it requests responses from the other stations and
therefore it can be used to detect new stations. Another difference is that you can also select the
channel on which the AnyCall will be transmitted (alternatively, you can let the radio select
automatically the channel).
You can send three types of AnyCalls (see also description of addressing modes on Appendix A):
• General: the address sent by your radio is @@?. This is a simultaneous call addressed to all the
stations.
• Selective: you specify the last character of the address. This is a simultaneous call addressed
only to the stations whose names (addresses) end with a character you specify.
• Double selective: similar to selective, except that you specify the last two characters of the
address.
To make an AnyCall, first you must select the address to be used for the call.
Micom-Z will wait for responses for a certain time before entering the link state with all the stations
that responded within this interval (the maximum number of stations that are accepted in an AnyCall is
16).
NOTE
Before starting, you may want to select a different net to use: see
instructions on page 2-35.
To transmit an AnyCall:
1. Press CALL. The radio displays the last called address.
If you see the address you want (that is, you want to repeat the last AnyCall), skip directly to
Step 10 below, otherwise continue as explained below.
2. Press MORE once.
3. Press MULT to display the first page of special calls.
4. Press ANY.
5. Press SEL.
NOTE
If you try to send (SEND) the call without first selecting an address,
your attempt is rejected and you see for a few seconds NOT PROG.
6. Select the AnyCall address:
• To send a general AnyCall, press ?.
• To send a selective AnyCall, enter the desired character (any character except #, @ or ?).
• To send a double-selective AnyCall, enter two characters.
7. Confirm your selection by pressing ENTER.
