Manpack Transceiver 2110 series Reference Manual 175
Calling several stations simultaneously
If you want to call several stations simultaneously, set up the Emergency 1 entry in the
Address List to make a call.
In an ALE/CALM network, calls to a group of stations can be made using the global
ALL address syntax (@?@) through the Emergency, Message, Phone, Selective, or Send
Position call type. If you have the MIL-STD-188-141B ALE option installed (2110 only)
you can use the ALL, ANY, Group Selective, NET, or Wildcard address syntax through
the Emergency, Message, Phone, Selective, or Send Position call type. You can also send
a message as part of the ALE call.
For more information on the special ALE address syntaxes see page 171,
CallType–Address.
In a Codan Selcall network, calls to a group of stations can be made using a group selcall
address through the Emergency, Message, or Selective call type. A group address is an
address that ends in two or more zeros. For example, to call all stations with addresses
that range from 1201 to 1299, you would enter 1200 as the address. To call all stations
with addresses that range from 150001 to 159999, you would enter 150000 as the
address.
Open Selcall supports group calls with 1 to 3 zeros in 4-digit addresses, and 1 to 4 zeros
in 6-digit addresses.
