Receiving a Call
When you receive an incoming call, your radio alerts you with a ringing tone like a telephone
and the identity of the calling party is displayed, as follows:
Depending on your network and how your T2040II is programmed, you can respond to the
call as follows:
1
You can accept the call by lifting the microphone off its hook or momentarily pressing
the PTT key.
You then hear the call set-up tone,
pip.. pip.. pip..
, and the
WAIT
indicator illuminates
briefly before the ‘call ready’
GO
indicator illuminates.
Alternatively, if you do not want to accept the call, press the Clear key (
) and the
call is then cancelled.
2
When your radio receives an incoming call, two short tones,
beep, beep
, sound from the
speaker and the
GO
indicator illuminates. Answer the call by lifting the microphone off
its hook. No further tones will be heard.
Group Calls
If the incoming call is a group call, you hear a single ring and then the caller broadcasts a
message to all members of your group. It is not normally necessary to reply.
Re-establishing a Call
When a call has been ended and no other function is active, your T2040II displays the identity
of the last party called. This enables you to easily re-establish a call.
