Double capacity in direct mode
Based on DMR TDMA technology, you can have two voice calls simultaneously in direct mode.
Pseudo trunk
Several talk groups share the same frequency, and each one of them can dynamically choose to use one of the slots to talk. This is a two-slot-trunked mode. While time-slot1 is busy, the MD615 will use time-slot 2 to transmit.
Emergency alarm/call
Use the orange emergency button to initiate an emergency alarm and call to other radios.
