ROLE
1. The Multitone RPR 563KGS is a UHF FM transceiver with selective calling and two-way
speech facilities. The unit can receive alphanumeric messages and can make selective
calling, speech and telephone calls. A sub-audio tone encoder/decoder is incorporated
ensuring that unwanted transmissions are ignored. The transceiver may be used in
simplex or duplex (telephone-style) mode.
2. Selective calling and telephone calls are made via a DTMF keypad. A reduced keypad
version of the transceiver, designated the RPR 563GS, (which does not have a DTMF
keypad) is available which is able to make limited telephone-style calls.
3. The transceiver is powered from a plug-in nickel-cadmium or metal hydride battery pack
which may be trickle or fast-charged via contacts in the base. Another set of contacts
in the battery pack allow the transceiver to be programmed, and allow absence
registration when used with absence/charging racks on Multitone systems.
4. Selective calls to the receiver are in Multitone Mk7 digital format which has a capacity
of up to 10,000 individual address codes. Visual alert is by flashing LED and eight
audible tone alert patterns (Beep Code) are available. Alphanumeric messages can be
displayed on a 14-character dot matrix Liquid Crystal Display (LCD).
5. The unit is housed in a Bayblend case which provides a lightweight but strong
construction. A pocket clip, holster and wrist strap lanyard are available as carrying
devices.
STANDARD FEATURES
Liquid Crystal Display (LCD)
6. The LCD provides a visual display of up to 14 alphanumeric characters (longer
messages are displayed in 14 character blocks). A backlight provides enhanced LCD
viewing under low light conditions.
Acoustic and Visual Alerts
7. A range of eight different audible tone alert codes (beep codes) are programmed as
standard. These alerts, when initiated, are accompanied by the illumination of an LED
to provide visual indication of a call. Speech calls are indicated by ringing patterns
which match the appropriate tone alert codes.
