9.6 Initiating an Individual Call After Ensuring That the Target Party Is
Available for Communications (Message Trunked (Enhanced))
The Individual Call (Message Trunked (Enhanced)) is the function that allows a user to distinguish whether or not the
receiving transceiver is available to communicate for initiating an Individual Call in an NXDN Trunking system.
Using the Individual Call (Message Trunked (Enhanced)) function, communications can be started without reestablishing a
link between the transceiver and a traffic channel to respond to a call, as the link to the traffic channel has been
maintained. This enables the occupation of a traffic channel assuring the continuity of communications without facing the
busy channel to respond to a call. The traffic channel can be released by the transceiver operation.
The transmitting transceiver sends a message requesting an Individual Call to a system when initiating an Individual Call.
After receiving the message requesting an Individual Call, the system sends a message requesting an acknowledgment to
the receiving transceiver to confirm the availability of the receiving transceiver. The receiving transceiver sends an
acknowledgment for the message requesting the acknowledgment to the system. Subsequently, upon receipt of a
message requesting the connection from the receiving transceiver, the system assigns a traffic channel. The transmitting
transceiver and the receiving transceiver can communicate after receiving from the system a message assigning a traffic
channel.
To use this function, "Message Trunked (Enhanced)" needs to be configured for Trunking Type on both the transmitting
transceiver and the receiving transceiver using KPG-111D/ DN. "Message Trunked (Enhanced)" also needs to be
configured for Trunking Type on the system. (Refer to

Initiating an Individual Call (Message Trunked (Enhanced))
An Individual Call (Message Trunked (Enhanced)) can be initiated by doing any one of the following operations.
 Individual Call Mode
A message requesting an Individual Call is sent to a system by pressing the PTT switch after selecting a Unit ID
configured in the Unit ID List, or directly specifying a Unit ID in Individual Call Mode.
Pressing the Individual (NXDN), Individual + Status (NXDN), or Individual + SDM (NXDN) key places the
transceiver in Individual Call Mode.
The transceiver also enters Individual Call Mode by a user selecting "Individual (NXDN)", "Individual + Status (NXDN)",
or "Individual + SDM (NXDN)" after the transceiver enters Menu Mode by a user pressing the Menu key. (Refer to
Using Menu Mode on page
Or, pressing the [0] to [9] keys on the keypad causes the transceiver to enter Individual Call Mode if "Individual
(NXDN)", "Individual + Status (NXDN)" or "Individual + SDM (NXDN)" is configured for Keypad Operation. The
transceiver enters Unit ID Shortcut Entry Mode or will be on hold as the first digit of the Unit ID is entered. (Refer to
