■ Making Group Calls (P25)
Channels programmed for Conventional P25 and Trunking P25 operation
already have a Group ID assigned. For these channels, simply press and hold
the PTT switch to make the call.
• On Trunking channels, if the traffic channel is busy, a busy message appears and
the busy tone sounds. Release the PTT switch and wait for the channel to become
free. When the traffic channel becomes free, a proceed tone sounds.
Otherwise, if a key has been programmed with Talkgroup (Conventional P25
only), you can select a group ID from the list to make a call to those parties.
To select a group ID:
1 Press the key programmed as Talkgroup.
2 Press the GRP
and keys or rotate the CH control to select a group
ID/name from the list that has been pre-entered into your transceiver.
• The target group ID/name appears on the display.
3 Press the PF 1 key to accept the group ID/name.
4 Press and hold the microphone PTT switch to make the call.
• Speak into the transceiver as you would during a normal transmission.
■ Making Individual Calls (P25)
If a key has been programmed with Individual, you can make calls to
specified persons.
1 Press the key programmed as Individual.
2 Press the GRP
and keys or rotate the CH control to select a unit ID
from the list that has been pre-entered into your transceiver.
• Alternatively, you can directly enter a unit ID by using a DTMF keypad.
• The target unit ID/name appears on the display.
3 Press and hold the microphone PTT switch to make the call.
• Speak into the transceiver as you would during a normal transmission.
• On Trunking channels, a ringing tone will sound and the display will alternate
between the called unit ID/name and “CALLING”.

key.
