the Gateway or Repeater.

2 Press Config.
3 Select one of the following:
• MS - MS — Your radio can communicate only with other radios within its range.
• Gateway — Your radio uses a gateway to communicate with the infrastructure.
• Automatic — Your radio uses the first available gateway for that talkgroup.
• Specific — Your radio uses only the Gateway with the specified Gateway address for that
talkgroup. If your radio displays Selected Gateway: None, press Edit to enter the
current gateway address.
• Repeater — Uses the first available repeater for that talkgroup.
• GW + Rep — Uses the first available gateway or repeater for that talkgroup.

If your radio displays Selected Gateway: None, press Edit to enter the current
Gateway address.
NOTICE:
When the Gateway and the Repeater cannot be communicated even though a
talkgroup to use them is configured, the radio attempts the direct MS-MS
communication.
When your radio detects the appropriate Gateway and/or the Repeater, the Gateway and/or Repeater
icons turns solid, respectively.
3.3.5
Private Call With Presence Check
This feature allows you to see if the calling party is available in DMO. When this feature is enabled, you
can only initiate a Private Call if the called radio is present on the same channel and responds with a
presence check acknowledgement.
Otherwise your radio displays Party Not Available.
3.3.6
DMO Private Priority Call
The service provider may assign Pre-emptive Priority to outgoing DMO Private Calls. If this is the case,
DMO Private Calls from this radio preempt any ongoing calls (with the exception of emergency calls or
ongoing Pre-emptive Priority Private Calls) on the receiving radio, which then displays Call-
preempted.
