Types of Call-Out Alerts
There are five types of the Call-Out alerts:
Normal Call-Out
An alert message that is sent by a dispatcher either to a single radio or to a group of radios. There
are two types of Normal Call-Out:
With user receipt
The radio gets to the Accepted phase when you:
• select Accept, Reject, or Standby.
• the acknowledgment timer runs out.
Without user receipt
The radio gets to the Accepted phase when you:
• press Menu/OK.
• the acknowledgment timer runs out.
The Normal Call-Out mode is ended when the validity timer runs out.
Storm Plan
An alert message that is sent by a dispatcher to a group of radios. To raise its reliability, it is sent
several times. You are not able to respond to the Call-Out alert and any key press takes you to the
information phase.
Simple Call-Out
An alert with the functionality similar to full Call-Out but without the information phase. There are
two types of Simple Call-Out:
With user receipt
The Call-Out mode is ended when the acknowledgment timer runs out, or when you select Accept,
Reject, Standby, or reply with a text message.
Without user receipt
The Call-Out mode is ended when the acknowledgment timer runs out, or when you press
Menu/OK to enter CO Menu and select Exit.
Fallback Mode
An alert message that is limited only to voice communication. To initiate this type of Call-Out, press
a One-Touch key predefined by your service provider. It can be cleared manually.
NOTE: Fallback is only possible when the radio is in Local Site Trunking.
Test Call-Out
A special Call-Out alert sent by the dispatcher to test this feature. On receiving the Test Call-Out,
the radio plays a tone and displays Test Call-Out. To respond and clear the alert, enter Call-Out
menu and select Test OK or Send Message.
5.3.2
Call-Out Modes Interaction
Call-Out feature operation is different in other modes:
TXI Mode

• Exit TXI - Your radio exits TXI mode and prompts you to accept or reject the Call-Out message.
