Making a call
The radio’s behavior when making a call changes
depending on the type of channel selected.
Channels can be programmed for:
■ DMR calls over the DMR network
■ DMR calls between radios
■ analog calls between radios
If you are on a channel programmed for calls over the
DMR network, the green LED indicates whether the
network is active. By default, the network is inactive
(green LED is off).
Initiating a call will activate the network which will
remain active for a programmed time. While the
network is active (green LED glows), you can
complete the call and start a new call.
If you are on a channel programmed for DMR or
analog calls between radios (without a radio network),
the green LED indicates activity on the channel, i.e.
whether someone is talking.
For all DMR calls (over the network or radio to radio),
you will hear a go-ahead double-beep after pressing
the PTT key (if programmed).
Receiving a new DMR call is indicated by a number
beeps (if programmed):
■ one beep: individual call
■ two beeps: group call
■ three beeps: broadcast call to all radios
DMR calls have an inactivity timeout. If a pause in the
conversation exceeds the timeout, the next press of
the PTT key will establish a new call.
