• transmitting the selcall Ident 14531 will only activate the
alarm in the radio with the selcall Ident of 14531.
• transmitting 1453A will activate the alarms in all radios
with Idents 14530 through 14539 (a total of 10 radios).
If the radios in your fleet do not have sequentially numbered
selcall Idents and you want to make use of this function, you
will need to re-program the selcall Idents in your radios.
Programming and Sending group Calls
the process for entering a Group call Ident is the same as
entering a normal selcall Ident.
1. Press Call. is displayed, along with the last sent or
received selcall Ident. If an AlPHA label is displayed you
will need to press F then alPHa to switch to numeric
mode.
2. Press and hold the Channel control (or lVl key) until the
radio beeps. the right-hand digit of the selcall Ident will
flash.
3. rotate the Channel control (or press or ) to select
‘A’ in the flashing digit position. this is the special code
that will create the Group call.
4. Briefly press the Channel control (or lVl key) again to
select the next digit position.
5. continue entering the other 4 digits as required. the
selcall number is now ready to send.
6. Press and hold Call. A long beep will be heard and the
radio will transmit the selcall Ident.
NOTE: where your radio allows it, programming group calls
for 100 radios is identical except that you will need to select
‘A’ for the last two digits (e.g. 123AA). For 1000 radios you
will need to select ‘A’ for last three digits (e.g. 12AAA).
e.g.
sending Ident 145AA will call 100 radios with Idents 14500
-> 14599
sending Ident 14AAA will call 1000 radios with Idents 14000
-> 14999
You can also arrange to send selcalls to every tenth radio by
setting the second digit to A.
e.g.
sending Ident 145A5 will call radios 14505, 14515, 14525,
14535, 14545 . . -> 14595
Call acknowledge in group Mode
there is no call acknowledge when sending group calls.
this is to prevent all the radios in your group from trying to
respond to your selcall transmission at the same time.
Storing group Call idents
Group call Idents can be stored in memory in the same way
as a standard selcall Ident.
receiving group Calls
receiving a Group call is identical to receiving a normal
selcall except that the alarm sound is a low tone beep
instead of the normal High tone beep. the caller’s Ident or
AlPHA label appears on the display in the usual way.
rECEIVE-ONLy ChANNELS
Your radio supports up to 95 user programmable receive-
only channels with frequencies in the range 403 – 520 mHz.
Frequencies can be stored in five separate channel banks
labelled A to E, each containing up to 19 channels. these
additional 19 channels are located directly above cB channel
80 (81 – 99).
Each receive-only channel can also be assigned an Alpha
label to help identify that channel when it is selected.
Selecting Channel Banks
Before programming or recalling channels you should select
the required channel Bank. the 5 channel Banks can be
enabled through the menu either as individual banks of 19
channels (rX-A, rX-B, rX-c, rX-D or rX-E) or as a combined
group of 95 channels (rXA-E).
the default channel Bank is rX-A.
to select any channel Bank
1. Press and hold
MENU to enter the menu.
2. Press MENU repeatedly until ‘rX-x is displayed where x is
a channel Bank labelled A, B, c, D or E.
3. rotate the Channel control (or press the or keys) to
make the desired selection. select rX-A through rX-E to
enable one of the 5 single channel Banks of 19 channels.
select rXA-E to enable all channel Banks as a combined
group of 95 channels.
when finished briefly press the PTT to exit the menu.
Using Channel Banks
when using individual channel Banks rX-A to rX-E, each
channel Bank is enabled separately to provide 19 channels
of receive-only frequencies in each bank. channels are
numbered from 81 to 99.
