Introduction
APG1 and APG2 pagers are designed for use in both on-site and wide area paging systems. The
robust plastic case is fitted with a removable clip that allows the pager to be worn on a belt or in
a pocket. A safety cord with clip is also supplied.
The APG1is an alphanumeric pager. The APG2 is an alphanumeric pager that can receive speech
messages where the system licence allows.
•
Pagers have a memory that can store up to 80 characters. Messages are displayed in
blocks of eight characters and can be reviewed and deleted when required.
•
The display can be inverted by the user so that messages are legible whichever way round
the pager is worn.
•
The operational prompts may be displayed in any of six languages.
•
Fourteen different bleep tones are available. Two volume levels or silent operation can be
selected. A light flashes during the call.
•
Each pager can be programmed with up to seven different addresses. The first address is
the pager’s Individual Code number and the remaining six are Group Codes. Each Group
Code can be allocated to any number of pagers to allow them to be called simultaneously.
•
Addresses may be entered or changed by sending special programming calls to the
selected pager.
•
The pagers are powered by one AA size cell (battery); this can be either disposable or
rechargeable. A rechargeable cell will be charged when the pager is placed in a charging
rack.
•
A low battery indication is made on the pager’s display when cells require replacement or
recharging.
•
Vibrator (optional).
•
A display back light.
