BASIC OPERATIONS
Publication 14222-1150-2000, Rev. A 25
ALL CALLS
An all call is a call initiated by a radio user to all radio users on the channel.
Transmitting an All Call
All calls can be transmitted to the preset contact or to a contact on the Contact list. Methods for
transmitting an all call are the same as those described for Transmitting a Group Call on page 23.
When transmitting an all call, the icon appears in the display.
All calls can only be transmitted if enabled by your dealer via radio pre-programming.
Receiving an All Call
When an all call is received, the icon appears in the display.
It is not possible to
respond to an all call.
TALK-AROUND (DIRECT MODE)
The talk-around feature provides direct radio-to-radio communications. With talk-around, a radio repeater
system is not
required for radio communications. This type of operation is sometimes called “direct mode.”
Talk-around is beneficial when, for example, a radio repeater system malfunction has occurred, or when the
radio is out-of-range of a radio repeater system, but other radios are nearby that can communicate on the same
pre-programmed radio channels.
To toggle radio operation between normal communications mode (repeater mode) and talk-around, press the
pre-configured Talk-Around shortcut key. When in talk-around/direct mode, the
DM
icon appears near the
upper left corner of the display. When in repeater mode, the
RM
icon appears.
