Receiving Calls
Your MTM800E automatically receives the incoming call. 
Additionally, if Inactivity Revert Mode is enabled, the 
MTM800E returns automatically to the Home display, after 
that call ends.
Your MTM800E alerts you of an incoming call depending on 
the setting you selected in the Tones menu option (see 
page 123).
During message or contact editing, scrolling through the 
menu and changing any configuration you will be alerted of 
an incoming Group/Emergency/Broadcast Group Call if 
configured by your Service Provider.
Pre-emptive Calling
Pre-emptive calling is particularly useful when you need to 
speak urgently with a user whose terminal is busy in a non-
emergency voice call.
A pre-emptive priority call (PPC) is either an Emergency 
Group Call or a Private PPC (Simplex or Duplex call). 
This feature allows to disconnect the on-going lower priority 
call and to connect to the incoming higher priority call.
To place a PPC, see the Emergency Operation and Private 
Call sections in the user guide.
Your MTM800E receives the call via speaker or Telephone 
Style Handset earpiece, according to the setting used when 
the PPC is received. 
Receiving a PPC is explained in the following paragraphs. 
In the screens, <Any> in Use refers to any of the non-
emergency voice calls: Group, Private, Phone, or PABX.
Inactivity Revert Mode will occur if configured by your Service 
Provider.
For call alert, see settings in the Tones menu option (page 123)
