60 Section 2A: Making and Answering Calls
The tone emitted from your phone when making a
Direct Talk call is four beeps and sounds different from the
tone heard on Walkie-Talkie calls conducted on the network.
If you receive an error message, this means:
ⅷ There may be no parties on your channel or code.
ⅷ You are out of range.
When you receive a Code call using Direct Talk, your phone
displays Direct Talk Transmitting, along with the channel and
code selected. Answer a Direct Talk Code call just like you
would any other Walkie-Talkie call.
Private Direct Talk Calls
Private Direct Talk allows you to silence all the calls on a
channel that are not directed specifically at you. To do this,
you must first set your phone to Private Only.
To set your phone to Private Only:
1. In Direct Talk mode, press Options (right softkey) and
then select Edit Channel/Code.
2. With Channel number field highlighted, use your up and
down navigation keys to set a channel number and
press
O
.
3. Select Private Only and press
O
.
4. Select Done (left softkey).
To reach you, other Direct Talk callers must be on your same
channel and dial your 10-digit wireless phone number to
reach you.
Receiving a Private Direct Talk Call
The number or name of the person who initiated the call
appears on your display screen. Answer the call in the same
way you answer a regular Walkie-Talkie call.
