60 ENVOY™ TRANSCEIVER GETTING STARTED GUIDE
Receiving a call
Some calls that are addressed to your station are handled automatically
by your transceiver. It will either respond automatically with the
information requested in the call that it received (Get Position, Get
Status, Channel Test, or ALE Sounding call), or receive the message
(Message or Send Position call). The remaining call types (Selective,
Phone, and Emergency) sound an alarm at your station.
For incoming ALL, ANY, Group Selective, and Wildcard calls to
multiple control points, any control point that has a matching address
will receive the call, if permitted. You may have to switch off mute and
change the mute type to be able to hear the conversation.
Selective and Phone calls sound an alarm that is similar to a telephone
ringing. An Emergency call sounds a hee-haw alarm.
To answer an incoming call:
1 Listen for an incoming call tone.
An incoming call pop-up shows information on the type of call,
the address of the caller, the time of the call, and the channel
used.
