no call is in progress. 
The radio is capable of making a variety of calls, 
including calls to individual radios, groups of radios 
and calls to private and public telephone systems. 
Please contact your dealer for further information.

There are two types of systems on which the radio 
may be used, Off Air Call Set Up (OACSU) and Full Off 
Air Call Set Up (FOACSU). If you are in doubt about 
which system you are operating on, please consult 
your dealer.

LED flashes. This will then be followed by tone B.
Receiving a call on an FOACSU system -

the call may be terminated automatically if this
call time is exceeded.
