■ Make a direct mode call
1. Make sure that the names of the desired channel and group are displayed.
2. Press and hold the PTT key, and start speaking after a short tone is played and
appears on the display.
In the direct mode, pressing and holding makes a call to the first group on the
selected channel. Press and hold the duty key when you speak.
■ Gateway and repeater
Your organisation may have separate direct mode gateway devices or direct mode
repeater devices. The devices operate on certain frequencies, and offer an
additional service to your radio when the radio is in a coverage area of a
compatible device, and operates in the direct mode on the same frequency as the
device.
When the radio is on a direct mode channel and group where a compatible direct
mode gateway device is available, Gateway is displayed in the standby mode, and
during direct mode calls, is displayed. On such a channel and group, direct
mode calls are routed through the gateway device. In addition to transmitting
calls to the direct mode group, the gateway device may also transmit outgoing
calls to a network mode talk group predefined by your service provider, and you
may also be able to receive group calls from that group. Your radio does not
support any other services that may be offered by gateway devices.
If the connection to the gateway device is lost, Gateway connection lost is
displayed, and the radio continues to operate in normal direct mode.
