Private Reply and Direct Call
Frequently Asked Questions
1 Question: If I change my mind and want to exit the
request for Private Call (or I pressed the Top button by
mistake), how do I get out of the “private queue” status
(Radio Top button LED indicator is blinking orange)?
Answer: Long press the Top button. The radio exits the
private queue request and the Top button LED indicator
turns off, returning you to radio normal status.
2 Question: What happens if two people (for example user
A and C) press their Top button at the same time to
Private Reply or Direct Call User B?
Answer: Pressing the Top button only queues the radio
B ID; therefore, there is no issue if two people press the
Top button at the same time. The issue occurs when
these two people press the PTT button at the same time
to talk privately to B. Then, whoever presses the PTT
button faster gets to talk privately to B. The other user
hears a “busy” or rejection tone.
3 Question: What happens if a person Private Reply or
Direct Call User B, but User B does not want to engage
in the Private conversation?
Answer: The nature of the radio communication is
to allow instant communication without the option to
decline radio calls. Therefore, if you are concerned
about users disrupting group communications or
misusing the Private Reply or Direct Call features, make
sure that these features are enabled only on authorized
radio users.
4 Question: I pressed the Private Reply button but nothing
happened (for example, Top button LED indicator did
not start blinking) and instead the radio gives out a busy
tone.
Answer: It can be due to different causes such as the
Top button is disabled or the radio could not store the
radio ID you wanted to reply to (this is if the Top button
was pressed outside the four seconds Group Hang
Time).
5 Question: What happens if I want to Private Reply to a
person that just finished talking?
Answer: The radios allow for “Group Hang Time”
(around four seconds) for you to be able to Private
Reply to someone who had just finished talking. Push
the Top button within the hang time window and
the radio Top button LED indicator starts blinking
orange.You can then press the PTT button to talk
privately.
