Private Call
The Private Call, also called point-to-point, or individual call, enables calling between two individuals.
No other radio can hear the conversation. This call type can be carried out in two ways:
•
Duplex call (if the system allows), in TMO Mode. Both parties can speak at the same time. Start the
conversation using the SEND key.
• Simplex call, in TMO or DMO Mode. Only one party can speak at a time. Start the conversation
using the PTT button.
When a DMO Private Call takes place, radios not involved in this call receive the channel busy
indication. The radios are identified using its radio numbers.

Radio Messaging System (RMS)
NOTICE: This is a selling feature.
The Radio Messaging System (RMS) feature allows the radio to receive and send RMS messages
through the TETRA network using the Short Data Service (SDS-TL) or Status (STS) as the transport
layer.
NOTICE: One-Touch Buttons are disabled in the RMS mode.
There are two types of RMS messages:
•
RMS Status – a predefined code that is sent bidirectionally between the radio and the service
provider. The radio can have up to ten statuses that are assigned to numeric keys from 0 to 9. A
received RMS status is displayed on the home screen.
