Receiving an All Call
An A ll Call is a call from an individual radio to every
radio on the channel. It is used to make important
announcements requiring the user's full attention.
Procedure:
When you receive an A ll Call:
1 A tone sounds and the LED blinks green.
2 The first line of the display shows the caller
alias, and the RSSI icon. The second line dis-
plays A ll Call and the A ll Call icon.
3 Once the All Call ends, the radio returns to the
previous screen before receiving the call.
If the Channel Free Indication feature is en-
abled, you will hear a short alert tone the mo-
ment the transmitting radio releases the PTT
button, indicating the channel is now available
for use.
You cannot respond to an All Call.
See Making an All Call on page 43 for details on
making an All Call.
NOTE: The radio stops receiving the All Call if you
switch to a different channel while receiving
the call.
During an All Call, you will not be able to
use any programmed button functions until
the call ends.
