Using the intercom

When two or more handsets (wired or wireless) are installed, you
can use the radio to communicate between handsets.
Press and hold [AIS/IC].
Select INTERCOM from the menu.
Press [PTT] to talk.
When finished, press [X] to quit Intercom mode.
Notes:
Intercom mode only works when two or more handsets are
installed. While the intercom is being used, the VHF radio is disabled,
except for incoming DSC calls.
The intercom system is half duplex; you cannot receive and transmit
at the same time; you must release the [PTT] key to listen.
The receiving handset(s) can adjust their volume controls.

Using the announce function

You can use the handset to make announcements to the other
handsets and any external speakers that are connected.
Press and hold [AIS/IC] until the HAILER menu appears.
Select ANNOUNCE.
Press [PTT] to talk.
When finished, press [X] to exit Announce mode.
Notes:
The Announce function does not listen for a response.
During Announce mode, if a voice signal is received on a VHF
channel, an Rx icon appears on screen.
If an alert such as ATIS, AIS, DSC or WX is received, or the [DISTRESS]
key is pressed or a DSC call received, the radio will exit Announce
mode and handle the alert or DSC call.
