Close Call - Turning it ON and OFF

Close Call – How do I turn it ON and OFF 

​
 

Sometimes Close Call is turned on by accident and can be confusing as to how it even happened and how do I turn it off again.


There are a couple ways it can be turned on and off, but I have found that for most people that are
not familiar with the ‘double function’ of certain keys, this is the best way to make the adjustments.

 

 

Push the Menu Pad / Button
 

Set Scan Selection will be highlighted.

 

Scroll down the menu until you highlight Close Call.

 

Once Close Call has been highlighted - push the E.Yes button

 

The Close Call menu will now appear.

​

Close Call Only

Hits With Scan

Set CC Mode

Set CC Alert

Set CC Bands

 

Scroll down the menu and highlight Set CC Mode.

 

Once Highlighted - Push E.Yes.

 

The Set CC Mode menu will now appear.

​

Off

CC DND (Do Not Disturb)

CC Priority

​

If OFF is Highlighted - then Close Call is NOT active.

​

Otherwise you can scroll through the menu and highlight OFF and push E.Yes

 

You have now turned the Close Call (CC) option OFF.

 

Push SYSTEM to resume scanning.

 

Close Call can be turned on by accident if you push the FUNC pad and then the AVOID button.

 

Remember that some buttons have a dual purpose if the FUNC button is pushed prior.

 

Sometimes - the FUNC pad is pushed then the AVOID button, thinking that this is the correct procedure to AVOID a channel, but in fact your turning a Close Call mode on.

 

If you look closely at the AVOID button it has the CLOSE CALL symbol to its lower right, which in itself is confusing as it could relate to the 1, 4 or replay button.

 

Turning the close call function OFF via the keypad can also be done via pushing the FUNC pad and then quickly pushing the AVOID/CC button. Repeating this process will cycle through the CC settings until OFF is displayed. You would do this three times to return to where you started.

 

This method takes some practice and is generally the way things got confused in the first place.
