Making Calls
Your i205 phone makes two types of calls: digital
cellular phone calls and Direct Connect calls. With
Direct Connect calls, you use your phone as a
long-range, digital walkie-talkie.
Phone Calls
1 Enter the number you want to call.
2 Press
s to place the call.
3 Press e to end the call.
Direct Connect ® Calls
1 Enter the Direct Connect number you want to
call.
2 Press and hold the PTT button on the side of
your phone. Begin talking after your phone emits
a chirping sound.
3 Release the PTT button to listen.
Tip: To let someone know you want to talk to
him or her on a Direct Connect call, send a
call alert. See “Call Alerts” on page 25.
Dialing Direct Connect ® Numbers
Every Direct Connect number has 3 parts — an
area ID, a network ID, and a member ID — with an
asterisk between each of these parts. For example:
999*999*9999.
When you place a Direct Connect call, you must
enter the whole Direct Connect number including
the asterisks.
Tip: When you store a Direct Connect number in
Contacts it is good practice to include the
whole Direct Connect number including the
asterisks in case you travel with your
phone, or another Direct Connect user
whom you are trying to reach travels with
their phone, outside of your network.
