I-Call (Motorola/EDACS)

I-Calls are direct unit-to-unit transmissions that are not heard by other system users. Your
BC785D can receive these transmissions. How you receive I-Calls depends on whether you
are in Search or Scan mode.

During I-Call reception the display will show the Unit ID number of either the transmitting or
receiving mobile unit, not a talkgroup. Unit IDs will display differently according to the type of
trunked system, and will replace the n's shown here.

EDACS and MOTOROLA TYPE 1

MOTOROLA TYPE 2

7nnnnn

Hint -- There are thousands of Unit IDs in typical systems, but relatively few I-Calls at a

given moment, so it is normally best to let the scanner receive any I-Calls without
trying to specify particular units.

I-CALLS IN SEARCH MODE

In Search mode, the scanner default is that I-Call reception is OFF. This means that I-Calls
will not be received until you program them to be ON. You have three choices for controlling
I-Call reception. Through the Menu system, go to 2:SCAN OPTION / 2:TRUNK -
select bank number -/ 9:I-CALL, and make your selection. The menu choices are:
