Using the UHF radio for Ham Radio DMR

Hi folks

Has anyone here successfully used the UHF radio to connect to a ham radio DMR repearter or link?  I have a local 70cm repeater cluster with both analogue and DMR available.  I can access the analogue repeater with the 9500 Pro with no problem (apart from the really annoying 30 second transmit timeout!) but I can't even hear the DMR one.  I don't have a dedicated ham radio DMR set so I may be making some wrong settings in the Intercom app.  I've set in the transmit and receive frequencies and the colour code, but I'm not sure what to put in for the next settings:
Contact type ?
Contact Number ?
Encrypt Switch ?
Group List ?

Can anybody here help?

The repeater details given are:
Repeater Summary Details for GB7CA
 
Band: 70CM  (RU74)   Output frequency: 430.9250 MHz  RX Frequency: 438.5250 MHz
This is a DIGITAL VOICE repeater.
(Please note this repeater is NOT licensed for ANALOGUE Voice repeat)
This DV Repeater has DMR capability cc:2 Connectivity: PHOENIX UK

I know I'm late but this phone is tier one DMR and uses both time slots. You need tier two DMR, which this radio cannot do.
