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.
• Simplex call, in TMO or DMO Mode. Only one party can speak at a time.
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)
The Radio Messaging System (RMS) feature enables radio to receive and send RMS messages through the TETRA
network using the Short Data Service.
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. The latest received or sent RMS status is
kept on the home screen until the next power cycle. A received RMS status is displayed in blue color font on the
home screen.
RMS Free Text – a unidirectional message containing free text that is sent to the radio by the service provider.
Since this type of message is longer, the radio displays only its beginning on the home screen and to read its
remaining part, you need to go to Menu → Messages → RMS Box. The latest RMS free text is kept on the home
screen until the next power cycle.
