38 | Services and Features
The radio can reconstruct a long text message consisting of up to ten short messages. The maximum length of the
message is 141-1000, what can be defined in the codeplug. The radio recombines the text segments independently of
the order they have been received to the correct order of the original message. The message can be combined only if
all their message reference number are correct and the segmented receiver timer is still valid.
You can send long text messages to an individual destination. However, sending long text messages to groups is not
possible:
• Receiving the message during group/broadcast call — radio allows receipt of the text message during ongoing
group call and broadcast call. The group/broadcast call is displayed with the New mail arrived icon and tone for
mail reis played.
• Emergency Mode — you can receive SDS messages. To read the SDS messages the radio have to leave the
emergency mode. Sending the SDS messages in the emergency mode is prohibited.

Immediate Text Messages

Immediate Text Messaging is a selling feature which enables displaying the text message immediately on the radio
display. This feature is used for sending high important information from the console to radios.
When the radio has the feature enabled and receives an immediate text message, then:
• the immediate text message is stored in the Inbox.
• the content of the immediate text message is displayed.
• the relevant audio tone is played.
• additionally if the periodic alert feature is enabled, the periodic alerting is active until the immediate text message
is skipped or closed.
Note: When the feature is disabled in the radio, then immediate text messages are processed as normal text
messages.
When you reply or forwards an immediate text message, the message is sent as a normal text message.
When the radio receives more than one immediate text message, then just the latest received immediate message is
displayed. All the previous immediate messages in the Inbox are not prompted.

Home Display Text Message

Your radio is provided with a feature that allows your service provider to send special text messages to the display.
The message stays on the home screen until a new message is received. Power cycle your radio to replace the Home
Display message to the predefined one.

Predefined Templates (ATS Entry Prompt)

This feature assists the radio in sending formatted messages with a predefined destination address (MS-ISDN, SSI or
TSI) for computer applications.
You can select a predefined entry prompt which defines a message format to assist in the construction of an SDS
message. The prompt definition is set in the codeplug. The definition sets areas that are read-only, areas that can be
edited, and the type of characters that can be entered (numeric, alpha-numeric or phone digits). Along with the
message definition, the address to send the message is provided.
When you send the message, it is sent using SDS-TL with the PI that is provisioned in the codeplug. A receipt report
is requested.

SDS Air Interface Aspects

The radio can be provisioned to send a short-form SDS-TL receive report when the originator of the message allows
short-form report. The short form report uses specially designated SDS status values instead of SDS-REPORT.
