Before using these products, read the operating instructions for safe usage contained in the Product Safety and RF

Exposure booklet 6864117B25.

The MTP850 is restricted to occupational use only to satisfy

ICNIRP RF energy exposure requirements. Before using the products, read the RF energy awareness information and operating instructions in the Product Safety and RF Exposure booklet (Motorola Publication part number Safety Leaflet

6864117B25) to ensure compliance with RF energy exposure limits.

Keep this User Guide and the Product Safety and RF

Exposure booklet in a safe place and make it available to other operators in case the accessories are passed on to other people.

Disposal Information

The European Union Waste of Electrical and

Electronic Equipment directive requires that products sold into EU countries must have the crossed out trashbin label on the product (or the package in some cases). As defined by the WEEE directive, this crossout trashbin label means that customers and end-users in EU countries should not dispose of electronic and electrical equipment or accessories in household waste.

• Operation Temperature Range -25 °C to +60 °C

• Operating Time Continuous / Intermittent

In general, the radio transmit and receive time (operating cycle time) is determined by the communication system. On overload, respectively on extensive use beyond the systems specifications at high ambient temperatures, the radio is protected by its thermal control, which cuts down the RF output power, thus reducing the radio coverage range.

Icon Conventions

The document set is designed to give the reader more visual clues. The following graphic icons are used throughout the documentation set. These icons and their associated meanings are described below.

The signal word Warning with the associated safety icon implies information that, if disregarded, could result in death or serious injury, or serious product damage.

The signal word Caution with the associated safety icon implies information that, if disregarded, may result in minor or moderate injury, or serious product damage.

The signal word Caution may be used without the safety icon to state potential damage or injury that is not related to the product.

Notes contain information more important than the surrounding text, such as exceptions or preconditions. They also refer the reader elsewhere for additional information, remind the reader how to complete an action (when it’s not part of the current procedure, for instance), or tell the reader where something is located on the screen. There is no warning level associated with a Note.

Do not store your battery where the temperatures will exceed

+65 °C or fall below -20 °C.

New Lithium-Ion batteries (i.e.batteries that have never been charged before) may be stored for up to 2 years (with up to

50% of maximum charge) in well ventilated, cool and dry areas with some capacity loss in life cycle.

Batteries, which have already been charged and then stored for more than 2 months should be recharged overnight (14-

16 hours) before use.

Extending Battery Life

A battery is an expendable part and may need replacing during the life of the terminal.To ensure maximum service life of your handset, always replace the battery with a genuine

Motorola replacement.

In order to ensure maximum life from your battery, do not place the handset and/or battery in the charger, unless you really want to charge the battery.

Battery Charging Temperature

Your charger will only charge your battery when it is at temperature range of 1 °C to 37 °C.

This is due to the fact that the internal battery cell can be charged in the temperature range of 0 °C to 45 °C.

As the temperature gets colder (close to 0 °C) less capacity is stored in the battery.

8

If, during charging, the temperature is out of range, the battery might not be fully charged since the charging is temporarily stopped until the temperature becomes suitable.

The range of battery operation is from 0 °C to +45 °C in charger mode and from -10 °C to +60 °C in discharge

(application) mode.

First Time Battery Charging

Always charge your new battery/(whichever type) overnight

(14 - 16 hours) before using it.This is referred to as Initialising and will ensure maximum battery start capacity.

Battery Charging Rules

Generally, to reduce the number of charge cycles as much as you can wait for Low Battery message to charge as this will ensure maximum battery life.

Do not use your charger as a terminal stand or leave your terminal and fully charged battery connected to the charger whilst not charging. Continuous charging will shorten the battery life.

Attaching the Antenna

Turn the MTP850 Off before installing or removing the antenna.

Insert the bottom of the antenna into the screw-in base on the top of the MTP850. Turn clockwise until snug. Do not force.

Selecting TMO or DMO Operation

General

In Trunked Mode Operation (TMO) the MTP850 is used with the infrastructure services within system coverage.

In Direct Mode Operation (DMO) the MTP850 is used without infrastructure services required.

While operating in DMO the propagation travels directly from the transmitting terminal antenna to the receiving terminal antenna, with no assistance from any base station or tower. Therefore, the range is critically dependent on the position of the user and the antenna. To achieve best results, hold the terminal in the hand as high as comfortably possible, and be sure not to obstruct the antenna in any way. Be sure that the antenna is clear from the body, cables, or other obstructions.

As there is no tower-mounted base station to assist, and the two users are usually standing at ground level, the range is usually shorter than that can be achieved towards a tower or hilltop. Any obstructions (hills, buildings, etc.) between the users will further decrease the range. Conversely, raising the terminal higher or moving to a higher location may improve the range.

A MTP850 in DMO can communicate with the trunked system (and vice-versa) through a gateway device. To use that feature, please enable the gateway option in your

MTP850 (see “Gateway/Repeater Selection” on page 56).

Entering TMO or DMO

Enter TMO or DMO in one of the following ways:

• From the Home display press Optns and select Direct

Mode if the MTP850 is in TMO.

• From the Home display press Optns and select Trunked

Mode if the MTP850 is in DMO.

Mode if the MTP850 is in DMO.

Mode if the MTP850 is in TMO.

31

• Press the TMO/DMO one-touch button (if programmed by your Service Provider).

Your terminal can alert you of an incoming call. Select the alert settings in the Vibrate menu and Tones menu items.

TMO Calls

You can make and receive the following types of calls when the MTP850 operates in Trunked Mode:

• Group Calls

• Private Calls

• Private Calls via MS-ISDN

• Phone Calls

• PABX Calls – local (office) extension calls

• Emergency Calls

DMO Calls

You can make and receive Group Calls when the MTP850 operates in Direct Mode (DMO). This includes Emergency

Group and Private Calls.

The MTP850 returns to the Home display when there is no activity for a few seconds.

Repeater Mode

This feature is available only for MTP850 FuG.

In this mode the MTP850 re-transmits information received from one DMO terminal to other DMO terminal enhancing coverage area.

Incoming Calls During Dialing

The MTP850 remains affiliated to the last Talk Group and receives all the group calls. An incoming call is indicated to the user and the dialling process is interrupted. Nonemergency call does not suspend dialling but the user is able to hear the tone of incoming call. When the radio receives a private or a phone call, radio indicates and gives to the user the option to reject or accept it. If the user accepts the call, dialling process ends. When the user rejects it the terminal goes back to the dialling process.

Entering Emergency Mode During Dialing

The dialing process stops if during it the user tries to go to the emergency mode.

Incoming Long Text Message During Dialing

The Long Text Message is indicated on the display and it interrupts the dialing process.

34

Changing Call Type

By dialing from the idle screen the user is given the possibility to change the Type of the Call.

Modifying the Type of Call

The infrastructure can modify the type of call you started.

For example, you might start a Simplex Private Call, and the infrastructure could modify the call to a Group Call.

The terminal will alert you of the modification and will display the following messages, depending on the type of call:

• Call Modified (to Duplex)

• Call Modified Use PTT (modified to Simplex)

Continue the modified call depending on the type of call.

• Simplex Private Call modified from direct setup to hook setup: a ringing tone will alert of the change.

• Simplex Private Call modified from hook setup to direct setup: there will be no indication of the change.

Receiving Calls

Your MTP850 automatically receives the incoming call.

Additionally, if Inactivity Revert Mode is enabled, the MTP850 returns automatically to the Home display, after that call ends.

Inactivity Revert Mode will occur if configured by your Service

Provider.

Your MTP850 alerts you of an incoming call depending on the setting you selected in the Vibrate menu option (see

page 126) and the Tones menu option (see page 132).

During message or contact editing, scrolling through the menu and changing any configuration you will be alerted of an incoming Group/Emergency/Broadcast Group Call if configured by your Service Provider.

35

Pre-emptive Calling

Pre-emptive calling is particularly useful when you need to speak urgently with a user whose terminal is busy in a nonemergency voice call.

A pre-emptive priority call (PPC) is either an Emergency

Group Call or a Private PPC (Simplex or Duplex call).

This feature allows to disconnect the on-going lower priority call and to connect to the incoming higher priority call.

To place a PPC, see the Emergency Operation and Private

Call sections in the user guide.

Your MTP850 receives the call via speaker or earpiece, according to the setting used when the PPC is received.

For call alert, see settings in the Vibrate menu option (page 126)

and the Tones menu option (page 132)

.

Receiving a PPC is explained in the following paragraphs.

In the screens, <Any> in Use refers to any of the nonemergency voice calls: Group, Private, Phone, or PABX.

TMO Group Call

General

A Group Call is an instant communication between you and others in a talkgroup that you select. Participants may join

(late entry) and leave an on-going Group Call. A talkgroup is a pre-defined set of subscribers enabled to participate in and/ or invoke a Group Call, that is set up by your Service

Provider.

Talkgroups appear on your display as names or numbers (for example: Sales, Service, Electricians, Talkgrp10).

Talkgroups can be divided into many folders. Each folder may contain several talkgroups.

For ease of use, your MTP850 also provides the ability to:

• Perform an alphabetical search of the talkgroup aliases.

Scroll through the entire talkgroup list.

• Organise your groups into three folders (default name for the first favorite folder is called My Groups which is set up by your Service Provider).

Your talkgroups may be organized into scan lists (set up by your Service Provider, or by yourself through the Menu).

When you activate one of these scan lists, your MTP850 will continuously monitor the activities of the selected talkgroups.

By assigning priorities to the talkgroups defined in the scan list, you will be capable of accepting calls that have higher priority than the on-going call.

You can go to talkgroup, folder, or scanning selection when the terminal is idle.

Pressing PTT during talkgroup selection switches to a new group and starts a call.

Each talkgroup may have one associated Announcement

Talkgroup (ATG) that it monitors (if set up by your Service

Provider).

42

An ATG is a special group which is linked to a number of talkgroups and has the highest priority level, thus enabling broadcast of the call to all these talkgroups.

When an ATG is selected, the scanning icon is not displayed.

The MTP850 monitors the ATG scan list instead of the selected scan list. The ATG scan list contains all the talkgroups associated with a selected ATG. Your Service

Provider should advise what talkgroups are associated with which Announcement Talkgroup.

Your MTP850 will always monitor the Group Calls in the ATG scan list. To place an Announcement Call, you must first select the specified Announcement Talkgroup as advised by your Service Provider, otherwise you will only be able to participate when an Announcement Talkgroup is received.

Activation and deactivation of talkgroup scanning has no effect on the ATG scan list.

Dual Microphone Feature

See “How to Hold Your MTP850” on page 15.

Selecting a Group

You can select a talkgroup in one of the following ways, by using the:

Any incoming Group call is always received through the main speaker. If configured by your Service Provider, the Audio menu item allows to setup the audio of the incoming Group Call.

If the setup is Speaker Control, you can direct the audio of an active group to the earpiece (low audio) or the main speaker

(high audio). In low audio speak into the bottom microphone and listen via the earpiece. In high audio speak into the top microphone and listen via the speaker.

At the end of a call which has been directed to the earpiece, an audio hang timer is activated, if it is enabled by your Service

Provider. Within the preprogrammed hang time, any incoming call is still received through the earpiece. When the timer expires, a low pitch tone is emitted alerting you that the next incoming Group call will be received through the speaker. Upon hearing this alert, you are advised to hold the terminal at a comfortable distance away from the speaker.

When receiving a Group call, you will hear a “New Group Call” tone (if configured by your Service Provider).

Transmit Inhibit

You can activate the Transmit Inhibit (TXI) Mode before entering RF sensitive areas, e.g. in hospitals or in potentially explosive areas, where safety can be jeopardized due to

MTP850 transmission radiation.

Radiation of the MTP850 is only suppressed if the TXI Mode is activated or the MTP850 is separated from power supply.

In TXI Mode the MTP850 will not transmit under any circumstances, except for the Emergency Call, which can be initiated even if the MTP850 is in TXI Mode.

All MTP850 functions and keys which cause transmission, e.g. registration to the network, change of talkgroup or folder, sending messages, pressing PTT, etc. are disabled. In this case the display shows “Not Allowed In TXI Mode” and the

MTP850 sounds the “Transmit Inhibit” tone.

When no danger to safety exists anymore (for instance if you leave the RF sensitive area), the TXI Mode can be deactivated and the MTP850 returns to standard operation.

Setting the TXI Mode is described in “Setting Transmit Inhibit

(TXI) Mode” on page 163.

Dynamic Group Number Assignment (DGNA)

DGNA provides the ability for a network operator or authorised user to dynamically allocate new, or update existing talkgroups to selected terminals over the air interface. Using supplementary services messages (SS-

DGNA), the network operator can command your terminal to add talkgroups or to update the existing talkgroups, or to delete talkgroups from the list. This operation is performed by transmitting the data into your MTP850.

Your Service Provider can gather some Talkgroups under one

Super-group and transmit it to your MTP850 as a DGNA. In such a case, you will be able to participate in calls to/from all the groups in the Super-group.

DGNA Reception with Notification Message

When a DGNA message is received and

DGNA notification was configured by your

Service Provider, you will get a tone indication and notification message

(“Talkgroup list updating”), and then a display of the new assignments.

You can use the View, Attach, Back soft keys, MENU , Rotary knob, , and

Emergency button.

Pressing one of them exits the DGNA display.

Button/Footswitch

This feature provides to the user ability to send preset status message by pressing the button/footswitch. In TMO mode, the ability to send an Alarm and initiate a TMO Group/Private call is unavailable.

Message addressing and sending:

• the address can be predefined by the Service Provider, if not it is sent to currently selected group

• if no group is selected the message is sent to the reserved address

• message is sent even if the user is involved in any active call.

The indication depends on the setting from the Service

Provider. Visible/audible indications can be disabled for the status message.

When the radio is PIN locked the user can still press the

Button/Footswitch to send the message.

If the radio is out of service the user will only see indication that the operation failed.

DMO Group Call

General

In DMO, the MTP850 can be used without your Service

Provider’s infrastructure.

Direct Mode allows communication with other terminals also operating in Direct Mode, which are on the same frequency and talkgroup as your MTP850.

In DMO it is only possible to place Group Calls, Emergency

Group Calls and Private Simplex Calls.

You can receive a call:

• From the selected talkgroup

• From other users within talkback range (if configured by your Service Provider). This is called an InterMNI (Mobile

Network identity) call.

• From an open group. (An open group is a super-group to which all DMO groups belong.)

When you start a call, the members of the selected talkgroup who have their units turned on, and are within the group subscriber identity (as configured by the Service Provider), will receive the transmission.

In DMO the MTP850 can communicate with the trunking system (and vice-versa) if the Gateway option is enabled in the MTP850.

To enhance the terminal’s DMO coverage area the DMO group can link to a repeater if the Repeater option is enabled in the terminal. Additionally the GW + Rep (gateway and repeater) communication mode can be used.

If Transmit Inhibit is activated while the terminal is set to

DMO, the PTT is disabled. You can only listen. For detailed

information on Transmit Inhibit, see page 51. DMO Talkgroup

selection is allowed when Transmit Inhibit is activated.

Emergency in TMO

Overview

Please check with your Service Provider for the configuration of your terminal.

Your terminal may be configured with one of the following:

Emergency Group Call

The terminal will enter Emergency Mode when you press and hold the Emergency button.

The Emergency Mode allows you to use the PTT to transmit with Emergency priority (by either initiating an Emergency

Group Call or requesting emergency transmit priority).

After entering Emergency Mode, you may send an

Emergency Alarm (if configured) and then start the

Emergency Group Call and activate Hot Microphone (if configured).

The Emergency Alarm is a special Status message sent to the infrastructure before the Emergency Group Call starts.

The terminal may wait for infrastructure acknowledge for this

Alarm and attempt retries. Each time you press the

Emergency button, the terminal will send an Emergency

Alarm.

Hot Mic (Hot Microphone) allows you to talk without pressing the PTT. Pressing PTT during Hot Mic ends Hot Mic transmission. Pressing the End soft key ends Hot Mic activity. If Hot Mic is disabled, then use PTT to talk.

Emergency Private Call (Simplex or Duplex)

The terminal will start an Emergency Private Call to a predefined ID when you press and hold the Emergency button.

77

If an Emergency Private Call gets modified to an Emergency

Group Call, the terminal will enter Emergency Mode and will leave the Emergency Mode when the call ends.

Emergency Private Call and Emergency Alarm

If the address type is set to Private and Emergency Alarm is enabled, press the Emergency button to send the emergency alarm to the address configured by the Service Provider.

When those requirements are satisfied the Emergency Call is initialized.

Changing Folder or Group

See Group Call section on page 42.

Entering or Exiting Emergency Mode

Upon entry into Emergency Mode any existing call or service other than packet data service will be aborted or cleared down.

In Emergency Mode, the terminal will automatically reject

Phone, PABX and Private Calls, and will not monitor the groups in the user selected scan list. If an ATG is the selected group, however, the terminal will monitor the subgroups associated with the ATG. The terminal will remain in

Emergency Mode until you exit it.

Press and hold the Emergency button to enter Emergency Mode.

• receiving Ambience Listening.

• sending Silent Emergency alarms.

• sending GPS signal based on SDS application.

Entering the Silent Emergency Mode

To enter Silent Emergency mode the user needs to press the

Emergency button.

This feature needs to be enabled by your Service Provider.

Exiting the Silent Emergency Mode

To exit the Silent Emergency mode:

• user initiates it by pressing Menu and then # key within 3 seconds.

• the Silent Emergency alarm is not successful or it is rejected

Count of the efforts and duration that your radio waits for the reply of the alarm are set by the Service Provider. This can be only interrupted when the user exits the Silent Emergency mode.

• ambience listening terminates.

Silent Emergency Mode interactions

User presses the Emergency button while in Silent Emergency

• radio sends silent emergency alarm.

• radio provides no audible/visible indication.

In Silent Emergency Mode when the battery is removed the radio will turn on again in the normal mode.

Silent Emergency and TMO/DMO Mode

As the Silent Emergency is only available in TMO, radio will change the mode from DMO to TMO. When the user is in a private or group call, Silent Emergency waits until any of the calls is ended to change the mode and enter the Silent

Emergency Mode.

If the Silent Emergency mode enters after the call the only change on the display is the Private/Group notice which disappears.

Power off in Silent Emergency mode

If user initiates the power off while in Silent Emergency mode the radio goes to pseudo power off state. In this state audio and visible indications are turned off but the radio is still on in the Silent Emergency mode as before.

If the radio exits the Silent Emergency mode after powering off in it, the radio shuts down without any indication.

Power on in pseudo power off

User presses the Emergency button, the radio indicates power on but it is still in Silent Emergency mode.

Silent Emergency mode and PIN protect

The radio enters the Silent Emergency mode while in the PIN protected state, it asks the user for the unlocking code. When the radio exits the Silent Emergency mode, it is still in the PIN protected state.

Emergency in DMO

Overview

You can initiate an Emergency Group Call to a group.

You can receive an Emergency Group Call:

• From the selected talkgroup

• From other users within talkback range (if configured by your Service Provider). This is called an InterMNI call.

• From an open group. (An open group is a super-group to which all DMO groups belong.)

Emergency calls can be placed via gateway and repeater.

For gateway and repeater settings, see “Gateway/Repeater

Selection” on page 56.

Hot Microphone Feature in DMO

This functionality allows the user, that is in emergency situation, to be heard without pressing the PTT. It needs to be enabled by your Service Provider for DMO mode. For the

detailed functionality please see “Hot Microphone Feature in

TMO” on page 80.

When the radio is in emergency mode and it switches from TMO to DMO (and vice versa), the Hot Mic feature is still active.

Changing Folder or Group

Proceed as explained in the Group Call section, “TMO Group

Call” on page 42.

85

Making an Emergency Group Call

To initiate or answer a call:

1. Enter Emergency Mode by pressing the Emergency button.

2. Press and hold PTT.

3. Wait for the talk permit tone (if configured) and talk.

4. Release PTT to listen.

Your MTP850 enters TMO by pressing the Emergency button

(if configured by your Service Provider). The terminal attaches to the predefined talkgroup and starts the Emergency Group Call. If the predefined talkgroup is invalid the terminal attaches to the last selected talkgroup.

Receiving an Emergency Group Call

1. The display shows Emgcy In Use and the caller’s identity as a private number or an alias.

2. The caller’s voice will always sound via the speaker (unless an external earpiece is connected to the terminal).

If configured by your Service Provider, the screen background will be red.

• If the incoming call is an InterMNI call in Emergency

Mode, you can view network information by pressing

Optns and selecting Network.

• If the incoming call is an InterMNI call not in Emergency

Mode, you can view network information by pressing

Network.

GPS Location Service

Your terminal’s GPS Location feature uses information from

Global Positioning System (GPS) satellites orbiting the Earth to determine the approximate geographical location of your terminal. The availability and accuracy of this location information (and the amount of time that it takes to calculate it) will vary depending on the environment in which you are using the terminal.

For example, GPS location fixes are often difficult to obtain indoors, in covered locations, between high buildings, or in other situations where you have not established a clear broad view of the sky.

SEE: IMPORTANT - Things to Keep in Mind.

The GPS location Service can assist your Dispatcher or

Colleagues in many ways such as more efficient deployment of resources or locating your terminal if you trigger your emergency service.

The terminal can be configured to display location information on the terminal’s display or to send it over the air to your dispatcher where it can be displayed in control center

(Please check with your Service Provider on the configuration of your terminal).

It is possible to send the location information in TMO via

Packet Data, if the user activate this feature.

IMPORTANT - Things to Keep in Mind

Where adequate signals from multiple satellites are not available (usually because your terminal cannot establish a view of a wide area of open sky), the GPS feature of your terminal WILL NOT WORK. Such situations include but are not limited to:

• In underground locations

• Inside of buildings, trains, or other covered vehicles

104

• Under any other metal or concrete roof or structure

• Near a powerful radio or television tower

• When your GPS antenna is covered (for example, by your hand or other object) or facing the ground

•

Ιn temperature extremes outside the operating limits of your terminal

Even where location information can be calculated in such situations, it may take longer to do so. Therefore, in any emergency situation, always report your location to your dispatcher.

Furthermore, please note that even where adequate signals from multiple satellites are available, your GPS feature will only provide an approximate location, often within 20 - 100 meters from your actual location.

Enhancing GPS Performance

Sometimes the GPS feature of your terminal may be unable to complete a location calculation successfully. You will then see a message indicating that your terminal cannot see enough visible satellites.

To maximize the ability of your terminal to determine a location fix please note the following guidelines:

• Stay in the open. The GPS feature works best where there is nothing between your terminal and a large amount of open sky. If possible, go outside, away from tall buildings and foliage. While performance in a building is improved by moving closer to windows, glass with certain sun shielding films may block satellite signals.

• Position your terminal to enhance reception. Signals from

GPS satellites are transmitted to your GPS antenna, which is in your terminal antenna. Hold your terminal away from your body, giving the antenna clear access to satellite signals. Do not cover the antenna area with your fingers or anything else.

105

• Stand still. If possible, stand still until your terminal is finished determining your location. Moving your terminal at a walking pace while your terminal is calculating your approximate location may substantially decrease GPS performance.

• In a car. When using the GPS feature in a car, position your terminal so that the GPS antenna has good access to

GPS signals. Typically, the GPS antenna has best access to GPS signals in a car when placed near a window.

GPS Icon

When your terminal is receiving valid GPS location data, a

GPS icon will be shown in the display:

Please note, that during Emergency mode, your terminal will not display the GPS icon even when receiving GPS location data. If valid GPS location data is available when you leave emergency mode the GPS icon will be displayed again.

This estimate of accuracy of the calculated location is only a very rough estimate and may vary substantially from the actual accuracy of the approximate location information reported.

This feature works in DMO and TMO modes when it is set by the

Service Provider.

• The variation will vary in accordance to the GPS

Configuration set by your Service Provider.

• The availability of the GPS Location menus is dependent on your terminal configuration, please contact your Service

Provider for further details.

It may take your terminal several minutes to complete the process of determining your location. During this time, a message usually appears on your terminal’s display stating:

• Insufficient Visible Satellites, or

• Insufficient Visible Data

For tips on getting the best location calculation, see

“Enhancing GPS Performance” on page 105.

The Position screen displays the updated information.

To cancel a location calculation before it is completed:

Press Back to return to the previous screen.

Each time approximate location of your terminal is calculated, the latest location information is stored in your terminal and remains there even when your terminal is powered off. You will see this information the next time you view the Position screen.

If you received a terminal call or alert while attempting to determine your location, the Position screen will disappear, but your terminal will continue attempting to determine its location. If it is successful, the new location information will be displayed the next time you view the Position screen.

Messages

General

The messaging feature lets you:

• Send text messages (free text or according to user defined or predefined templates).

• Send status messages.

• Receive messages.

A status is a number corresponding to a pre-programmed message in a list your group recognises. A text message is a text containing up to 1000 characters. There are two places where you can find text messages:

• Inbox – stores all incoming messages.

• Outbox – stores all outgoing messages.

If configured by your Service Provider it is only possible to send a message to a private number that is stored in the Contacts list.

Sending a Text Message
