8.6 Initiating an Individual Call After Ensuring That the Target Party Is
Available for Communications (Individual Call Acknowledge Request)
Individual Call Acknowledge Request is the function that allows a user to distinguish whether or not the receiving
transceiver is available to communicate so as to initiate an Individual Call in an NXDN Conventional system.
The Individual Call Acknowledge Request enables a call to the particular transceiver having the specified Unit ID, in the
same way as a normal Individual Call does; however, an acknowledgment message must be received from the receiving
transceiver before the communication starts (or receiving an Individual Call from the receiving transceiver also allows the
communication to start).
The transmitting transceiver sends a message requesting an acknowledgment when initiating an Individual Call. Upon
receipt of the message requesting an acknowledgment, the receiving transceiver sends to the transmitting transceiver an
acknowledgment message to notify that the receiving transceiver is available for the call. The transmitting transceiver
becomes enabled for the communication upon receipt of the acknowledgment message from the receiving transceiver.
To use this function, Individual Call Acknowledge Request must be enabled on the transmitting transceiver by using
KPG-111D/ DN. Also, using KPG-111D/ DN, the parameters of the following various functions to be used with Individual
Call Acknowledge Request can be configured.
• Call Request Tone
• Call Processing Tone
• Call Processing Tone Delay Time
• Automatic Response
• Initiating/Incoming Reset Time
Note
• Individual Call Acknowledge Request cannot be used while the transceiver is placed in Emergency Mode. A normal Individual Call,
which does not require the sending of a message requesting an acknowledgment, can only be used.
• The Auto Reply Message function of a VGS-1 cannot be used with the Individual Call Acknowledge Request. Refer to
Received Audio When a User Is Away from the Transceiver (Auto Reply Message) on page 463
