TELEPHONE INTERCONNECT

Your radio is equipped with a telephone intercon-
nect option that allows you to call land line tele-
phones through the system. Calls made through
the central controller are half-duplex operation (talk
or listen).
To place a Call (Full Interconnect Capability)
If your radio is not equipped with a DTMF micro-
phone, here is how to place mobile-to-land calls:

You will hear dial tone. Select a phone number
from the list by using talkgroup
button. After selecting, the desired phone location,
press the PTT switch. You will hear tones as they
are being sent out. When the desired number has
been completely sent out, you will hear either a
busy tone or ring tone. If you get a busy tone,
hang-up by pressing the Phone
try again.
• If illegal "bonk" tone sounds, when
button is pressed, it indicates that the telephone
interconnect option has not been enabled and
the telephone call cannot be made.
• After the called party answers, inform him/her
that you are using a radio and that he/she must
wait for the radio to finish transmitting (indicated
by a soft beep) before replying. Proceed in a
normal push-to-talk manner by pushing the PTT
switch to talk and release to listen.
• The maximum time period is determined by the
traffic load of the System Central Controller. If a
high pitch tone sounds, it alerts you that you
have just 15 seconds to complete your conver-
sation before the call will be disconnected.
