Receiving a group call
When a group call is received, your radio status changes to ‘Group Call’. The name of the talkgroup,
talkgroup folder and the caller’s ID are displayed.
Individual calls
Individual calls (point-to-point) are private calls between you and one other person. You can make
individual calls in two modes:
individual calls (half-duplex mode)—where only one person can talk at a time using the PTT
button.
individual ‘phone’ calls (full-duplex mode)—where both parties can talk simultaneously. Use
the Select/Send and Cancel/Home keys to initiate and end the call.
During phone calls the bottom microphone (behind the keypad) and the earpiece are active,
allowing you to hold your radio against your head like a telephone handset or a GSM
telephone.
When an individual call is received, your radio sounds an audible alert and displays the identity of the
caller (if the contact is stored in your phone book) or the ISSI of the caller.
Privacy mode
You can press a customised Privacy Mode soft key before dialling or during a call to prevent
interruptions from other calls during important or sensitive call. When you have Privacy Mode
enabled, calls made to your radio are marked as missed calls (see Call History on page58).
