SELECTING A MODE (EITHER A
TRUNKED TALKGROUP OR A
CONVENTIONAL CHANNEL)
SENDING A TRUNKED CALL
• If you hear a busy signal (a low-frequency
“bah-bah-bah-bah”), release the PTT but-
ton and wait for a call-back tone (sounds
like “di-di-dit”). When you hear the call-
back tone you will have three seconds to
press the PTT button. This allows you to
make another call without getting a busy
signal.
• If a continuous talk-prohibit tone is heard
when the PTT button is pressed, transmis-
sion is not possible. The radio may be out
of range.
1 Turn the Mode Selector knob to the desired
mode.
2 The display shows
theselectedmode’s
name.
For example:
3 If the selected mode
is unprogrammed,
an invalid-mode
tone is heard until a
valid programmed
mode is selected.
PLANT MODE 1
UNPROGRAMMED
1 Turn the radio on and select the desired
trunked zone and talkgroup (see “Selecting
a Trunked or Conventional Zone”).
2 Press and hold the PTT button on the side
of the radio and speak slowly and clearly
into the microphone area. The red LED
lights when the radio is transmitting. When
you have finished talking, release the PTT
button to listen.
