Call Alerts
Sending a call alert lets the recipient know you
want to talk to him or her on an InstantLINC Mobile
to Mobile call.
When you send a call alert, the recipient's phone
emits a series of beeps, or vibrates, and displays
your name or LINC ID.
The recipient can:
• Answer — begin an InstantLINC Mobile to
Mobile call with the sender
• Queue — store the call alert to the call alert
queue, which is a list of call alerts
• Clear — dismiss and delete the call alert
Sending Call Alerts
1 Enter the LINC ID you want to send to, as you
would when making an InstantLINC Mobile to
Mobile call.
2 Press A under Alert. Ready to Alert appears
on the display.
3 Press the PTT button until Alert Successful
appears on the display.
Note: If the alert is not successful, this may
mean the person you are trying to reach is
on a call or has the phone turned off.
Receiving Call Alerts
When you receive a call alert, you must answer,
queue, or clear it. You cannot receive phone calls
or InstantLINC Mobile to Mobile calls until you do.
To answer a call alert:
Press the PTT button to make an InstantLINC
Mobile to Mobile call to the sender.
To queue a call alert:
Press A under Queue.
To clear a call alert:
Press O. -or-
Press A under Clear.
Note: The recent calls list also stores call alerts
you have received. They appear as
InstantLINC Mobile to Mobile calls. Call
alerts remain in your recent calls list until
you delete them or until they reach the
end of the list.
Using the Call Alert Queue
When you queue a call alert, it remains in the call
alert queue until you make an InstantLINC Mobile
to Mobile call to the sender or delete it.
