Paging the RIB-600Analog receiver and PA speaker
The RIB-600Analog receiver can be paged with 2-way radios programmed for Quiet Call (CTCSS), Digital Quiet Call (DCS), 2-
Tone Paging, DTMF, or Selcall paging formats. Each format offers a unique method of paging the RIB-600Analog receiver.
Refer to the Programming section of this manual for specific instructions on programming your RIB-600Analog to one of these
selective signaling formats.
Ritron strongly recommends operation of the RIB-600Analog receiver with one of the
following selective signaling formats enabled.
Paging the RIB-600Analog with Quiet Call (CTCSS) only:
To page the receiver a user simply presses the 2-
way radio’s PTT and speaks while on the RIB-600Analog
channel.
Your 2-way radio must be programmed for a channel dedicated to RIB-600Analog operation. Only those radios
programmed with the RIB-600Analog channel will be able to access the receiver.
The 2-
way radio’s RIB-600Analog
channel and the RIB-600Analog
receiver must be programmed for the same QC
code. All Ritron radios offer 50 different field-programmable QC codes from which to choose.
Paging the RIB-600Analog with Digital Quiet Call (DCS) only:
To page the receiver a user simply presses the 2-way radio
’s PTT and speaks while on the RIB-600Analog
channel.
Your 2-way radio must be programmed for a channel dedicated to RIB-600Analog operation. Only those radios
programmed with the RIB-600Analog channel will be able to access the receiver.
The 2-
way radio’s RIB-600Analog channel and the RIB-600Analog receiver must be programmed for the same DQC
code. All Ritron radios offer 104 different field-programmable DQC codes from which to choose.
Paging the RIB-600Analog with 2-Tone Paging:
To page the RIB-600Analog
the 2-way radio must first send the correct 2-Tone Paging code. Once access to the
receiver is accomplished, the user simply presses the 2-
way radio’s PTT and speaks while on the RIB-600Analog
channel. After a period of inactivity the RIB-600Analog
is automatically reset, and will then require the correct 2-
Tone Paging code to re-gain access.
Only 2-way radios programmed to send the correct 2-Tone code on the RIB-600Analog channel can access the
RIB-600Analog receiver. However, once access is gained, any 2-way radio that operates on the RIB-600Analog
channel can access the receiver up until the time that the RIB-600Analog has automatically reset.
Can be used in conjunction with QC or DQC for added security. The 2-way radio and the RIB-600Analog receiver
must be programmed for the same QC or DQC code.
Paging the RIB-600Analog with DTMF or Selcall:
To page the RIB-600Analog the 2-way radio must first send the correct 3-7 digit DTMF or Selcall code. Once
access to the receiver is accomplished, the user simply presses the 2-
way radio’s PTT and speaks while on the
RIB-600Analog channel. After a period of inactivity the RIB-600Analog
is automatically reset, and will require the
DTMF or Selcall code to re-gain access.
Only 2-way radios programmed to send the correct 3-7 digit DTMF or Selcall code on the RIB-600Analog channel
can access the RIB-600Analog receiver.
Can be used in conjunction with QC or DQC for added security. The 2-way radio and the RIB-600Analog receiver
must be programmed for the same QC or DQC code
