About status messages
A status message is sent to another party to indicate
your current activity or location, such as “en route” or
“at lunch”. If the radio receiving your message has
been programmed with the same status messages, it
will decode and display your message. If you receive
a status message, the message is automatically
queued, since a response is not expected.
Selecting a status message
1 Press Menu and select Send > Status.
2 In the Status menu, scroll through the list of status
messages until the message you want appears.
Sending a status message
1 When you have chosen a message, press Send
and the Send to menu opens.
2 In the Send to menu, scroll through the list of
options until the choice you want appears.
If your radio has alphanumeric keys, you can
choose the option Dialed, then dial the number
of the party you wish to call.
If you select Address book or Preset, scroll to
the entry you want and press Select.
3 Press Select.
The call details appear on the display. While the
call is being setup, you can cancel the call by
pressing Cancel.
