Disconnecting Calls
When you are in the link state, your radio can communicate with at least one other ALE station.
➤ To disconnect an incoming call:
Press the ESC key. This disconnects the link and returns the radio
to the mode used before the link was established.

END CALLING
When you disconnect a link, you can instruct the other station(s) to return to the working mode they
were in before they entered the link state. This feature is called Home Acknowledge, and can be
programmed. If Home Acknowledge is enabled:
• In an individual link, each of the stations in the link can transmit the Home Acknowledgement to
instruct the other stations to disconnect the link.
• In a net/AnyCall link, the Home Acknowledgement can only be transmitted by the radio which
initiated the call.
Transmitting Calls in ALE Mode
To transmit an ALE call, you must specify the destination. In general, the destination consists of a net
and one or more stations (members of the specified net):
• When the MultiNet function (page 41) is disabled, the destination net
is always the currently selected net (its number is displayed on the
LCD while the radio is scanning). Therefore, if you do not want to
select a different net, you can skip directly to the selection of the
destination station(s).

• When the MultiNet function is enabled, first you must always select a net and then the
destination station(s).
To expedite the transmission of an AllCall, you can send a global AllCall by pressing the P/ESC key for
a few seconds.
MICOM-3 stores the last called address, so you can simply press the PTT twice in rapid sequence
(double pressing) to call again that address. This also applies to AllCall, and therefore after sending
AllCall for the first time, you can send it again by double pressing the PTT.
Note
If you want to monitor the call set up process on the speaker and be alerted by a
beep when the link is set up, turn the monitor on, using the MON (F4) key.
Selecting the Desired Net
➤ To select a net:
1. Press MENU and select ALE (F3).
