34 3. Making and Answering Calls
Nextel Direct Send
Nextel Direct Send lets you use Direct Connect calls to
exchange pictures, My Info, contact information, and
Groups with other phones that have this capability.
Nextel Direct Send cannot be used during Talkgroup
calls. Pictures cannot be sent in Group Connect calls.
Sending a Picture
When you send a picture using Nextel Direct Send, the
picture appears on the display of the receiving phone,
and is saved by that phone.
Sending a Picture During a Call
You can send a picture at any time during a Direct
Connect call, whether you made or received the call.
(Additional charges may apply.)
You cannot talk or listen on a Direct Connect call while
a picture is being transmitted. Other activities, such as
searching for a picture, do not prevent you from talking
or listening.
To send a picture during a call:
1. While in a Direct Connect call, press Picture (right
softkey). A list of pictures that can be included in a
Direct Connect call appears.
2. Select a picture and press the DC button to send it.
3. Wait while the picture is transmitted. The Direct
Connect call is temporarily interrupted while a
picture is transmitted.
4. When prompted, press the DC button to resume
the Direct Connect call.
Starting a Call by Sending a Picture
You can start a call by choosing a stored picture from
the Media Center.
To do this, you must have the recipient’s Direct Connect
number and IP address stored in your Contacts.
Note
The first time you send a stored picture after turning
the phone on, the message Picture Fees May Apply
appears and you are prompted to respond. Press
Yes (left softkey) to send the picture. Press No (right
softkey) to cancel.
