I-CALLs TALKGROUPS 1 ON YES Received normally Use this choice to receive I-Calls together with normal talkgroup traffic. 2 OFF Not received Received normally This is the BC785D default 3 ONLY YES NOT RECEIVED Use this setting to listen to I-Calls, and block all talkgroup reception. For quick access to this mode, press . (decimal) then RSM. You can hold any I-Call IDs. Because you can only hold on one ID, and there are two IDs involved in any I-Call communication (the transmitting and the receiving units), you might not hear the full conversation, but you probably will. In Search mode, when you hear an interesting I-Call, you can enter the instant shortcut . (decimal key) then RSM to enter I-Call Only mode. This blocks all talkgroup traffic and lets you hear just the I-Call. To return to normal reception, you must use the Menu system to select the ON or OFF option. Note: When storing I-Call IDs, remember that the ID will be for only one of the units - either the transmitting or receiving unit. Unless you specifically want to receive a certain ID, it might be better to use the special code in the HINT below. I-CALLS IN SCAN AND HOLD MODE You can store I-Call IDs in Scan Lists, just like talkgroup IDs, for use by ID Scan and Scan Hold modes. To program a specific I-Call Unit ID into a Scan Lists: EDACS or Motorola Type 1 Press . (decimal key) followed by the Unit ID digits, then E. Motorola Type 2 Press 7 followed by the Unit ID digits, then E. HINT - There is a special code to let you receive all I-Call IDs with a single Scan Lists entry. Press . (decimal key), 0, E. This will store the special code i0 in an EDACS Scan Lists, or 700000 in a Motorola Scan Lists or Digital. Then, whenever you Scan this entry, or select it in Hold mode, the scanner will receive any active I-Calls, regardless of the Unit IDs. Note: Motorola I-CALL tracking performance may vary between systems. Multi-Track The BC785D allows you to track more than one system at a time. Here are some highlights of this feature: ❖ You can actually track up to 10 trunking systems at one time. ❖ You can trunk, scan, or search and scan conventional frequencies at the same time. 56
