Receiving a TMO Group Call
Unless it is engaged in an active call, your MTP700 will
automatically switch to Group Mode and receive the transmission.
To answer the call, press and hold PTT.
Your MTP700 shows the Group name and the caller’s private
number or alias if previously stored in your address book.
Receiving a TMO Broadcast Call
The Broadcast Call (also called Site Wide Call) is a high-priority
group call from the console operator (or dispatcher) to all users. The
MTP700s are configured to monitor a Broadcast Call, but users
cannot talk back.
The Broadcast Call pre-empts an on-going Group Call that has the
same (or lower) call priority.
Calls (Direct Mode)
DMO Group Calls
In DMO, the MTP700 can be used without your Service Provider’s
infrastructure.
Direct Mode allows communication with other terminals also
operating in Direct Mode, which are on the same frequency and
talkgroup as your MTP700.
You can receive a call from the selected talkgroup and from an open
group. (An open group is a super-group of all DMO groups.)
When you start a call, the members of the selected talkgroup who
have their units turned on will receive the transmission.
In DMO the MTP700 can communicate with the trunking system
For incoming call alert, see settings in the Vibrate menu option and the Tones
menu option.
At the end of a call received through the earpiece, a low pitch tone is emitted
alerting you that the next incoming Group call will be received through the
speaker. At this alert, you are advised to hold the MTP700 at a comfortable
distance away from the speaker.
When receiving a Group call, you will hear a “New Group Call” tone.
In DMO it is only possible to place group calls and emergency group calls.
