Tmo Group Call - Motorola MTM800 Feature User Manual

TMO Group Call

General
A Group Call is an instant communication between you and
others in a talkgroup that you select. Participants may join
(late entry) and leave an on-going Group Call. A talkgroup is
a predefined set of subscribers enabled to participate in and/
or invoke a Group Call and set up by your Service Provider.
Talkgroups appear on your display as names or numbers (for
example: Sales, Service, Electricians, Talkgrp10).
The Talkgroups are divided into ranges. Each range may
contain up to 16 talkgroups.
For ease of use, your MTM800 also provides the ability to:
• Perform an alphabetical search of the talkgroup aliases.
• Scroll through the entire talkgroup list using the navigation
key.
• Dial a talkgroup (set up by your Service Provider).
• Organise your favourite talkgroups into one range called
My Groups (set up by your Service Provider).
Your talkgroups may be organized into scan lists (set up by
your Service Provider, or by yourself through the Menu).
When you activate one of these scan lists, your MTM800 will
continuously monitor the activities of the selected talkgroups.
By assigning priorities to the talkgroups defined in the scan
list, you will be capable of accepting calls that have higher
priority than the on-going call. For detailed information on
scanning, see page 94.
You can start talkgroup, range, or scanning selection when
the terminal is in idle mode or receiving a call.
While being in a call and dialling another group
simultaneously, do the following to talk in the current call:
1. Exit selection screen.
2. Press PTT and start talking.
