Making a call
To make a call from your radio, you may be able to either:
■ use whole-number scrolling
■ dial the call using the shift key and scroll keys, or
■ dial the call using the alphanumeric keys on a keypad
microphone.
Making a call by whole-number scrolling
Depending on your fleet size, whole-number scrolling may be
the quickest way to select a number to call. For more
information see "Whole-number scrolling in trunked mode"
on page 28.
To make a call by whole-number scrolling:
1 Press the scroll keys and
until the number you wish to call is
showing on the display.
2 Press the PTT key.
For example, a radio has a scroll list that consists of
presets 1 and 2, individual calls 200 and 201, and group
calls 900 and 901. You can use and to move
through the list in the following order:
1>2>200>201>901>902. Once the display shows
the number you wish to call, press the PTT key.
Your radio may also be programmed so that the scroll list
is continuous, and you can use to move from 1
directly to 902.
Dialling a call using the shift key and scroll keys
1 Press the shift key to begin
dialling. The first character is selected,
and flashes on and off.
