Reasons for Failed Calls

In RadioPro versions 8.3.1+, 9.3.1+ this is how to determine the reason for failed calls:

  1. In RadioPro Dispatch, choose “Help”->”Logs”.  This should open %programdata%\CTI Products\RadioPro Dispatch\
  2. Open the logs folder.
  3. Locate and open the most recent file named “FailedCalls YYYY-MM-DD.txt” with a text editor.

Example:

10:08:20.590 AM DEBUG Call Failed: 
    Source=Gateway, 
    Reason=Can't private call when in a group call hangtime

10:15:49.303 AM DEBUG Call Failed: 
    Source=Radio, 
    Reason=Call initiate group call failed: 
        INVALID_TARGET_ADDR

[Source=Client] Failure Reasons:

  • Already transmitting
    • Unable to transmit because another client has control of the radio.
  • Not connected to a server
    • Client is not connected to a gateway.

[Source=Gateway] Failure Reasons:

  • Server ended call
    • The gateway ended an active transmission unexpectedly.

[Source=Radio] Failure Reasons (Motorola):

  • Call initiate group/priv call failed:
    • The Motorola XPR Radio is reporting that an attempted group or private KeyRadio has failed. The failure code will have additional information.
  • No Response from radio
    • The Motorola XPR radio is not correctly responding to key-up requests.

Other Failure Reasons:

  • The Motorola speaker microphone may be connected. The RadioPro IP Gateway may not be able to correctly key-up a mobile radio if a microphone is plugged in.
  • The channel may be in use or in “hang-time” when keying up.
  • The item in the Subscriber List may be incorrectly defined in ICU:
    • As a Group Call when it should be defined as a Private Call.
    • As a Private Call when it should be a Group Call.
  • The Subscriber List PTT button may have a custom action assigned rather than the Default action. 
    • (The default action is to PTT the item selected in the Subscriber List)

Please verify that “Default” is selected as the PTT Action for the Subscriber List.

In RadioPro Dispatch,  Put Dispatch in Edit Mode.  Options -> Dispatch Settings, Choose the “Subscriber List” tree item…
  • Private calls may be disabled in the Motorola XPR5550e radio.

Please verify that Private Calls is CHECKED.  

In the Motorola CPS software,  Under Configuration, General, General Settings…
