Receiving an All Call
An All Call is a call from an individual radio to every radio on the
channel. It is used to make important announcements requiring
the user’s full attention.
Procedure:
When you receive an All Call:
1 A tone sounds and the LED blinks green. Your radio
unmutes and the incoming call sounds through the radio's
speaker.
2 An All Call does not wait for a predetermined period of time
before ending.
If the Channel Free Indication feature is enabled, you
will hear a short alert tone the moment the transmitting radio
releases the PTT button, indicating the channel is now
available for use.
You cannot respond to an All Call.
NOTE: The radio stops receiving the All Call if you switch to a
different channel while receiving the call.
During an All Call, you will not be able to use any
programmed button functions until the call ends.
