CTCSS Encoder/Decoder

Subaudible (CTCSS) 50-tone Encoder and Decoder circuits are built into every 
VX-3200, ensuring compatibility with modern repeater requirements. 

DCS Encoder/Decoder

For applications requiring Digital Coded Squelch signaling, full-featured DCS 
Encoder and Decoder circuits provide leading-edge protection from false decoding.

DTMF ANI Encoder

Automatic Number Identification (ANI) via an automatic DTMF Encoder is also 
provided among the VX-3200's versatile signaling capabilities.

DUAL 2-TONE DECODING

For applications where a mobile may be receiving calls from more than one 
dispatcher on a particular channel, the VX-3200 includes a built-in Dual Two-Tone 
Decoder circuit.

Versatile Scanning

A wide range of set-up options are available during configuration of the VX-3200, 
to ensure compatibility with the operating requirements of your system's users.

Programmable Front Panel Keys

Custom assignment of important functions to front panel keys is available at the time of 
programming, to provide the most ergonomically-friendly transceiver available today.

Programmable Alert Tones

Among the useful set-up options for the VX-3200 is the capability to customize the 
"Alert" tones generated from the transceiver, for ease of recognition by the user.

Measurements per EIA standards unless noted above. Specifications subject to change without notice or obligation.

VX-3200V has not been authorized as required by the rules of the Federal Communications Commission. 
VX-3200V is not, and may not be, offered for sale or lease, or sold or leased, until authorization is obtained.

Rugged, Die-cast Construction

The VX-3200's circuitry is housed within a 
die-cast aluminum enclosure, which doubles 
as a heat sink. This extraordinarily durable 
construction ensures many years of reliable 
operation, even in high-vibration installations.

Emergency Mode

When activated, the "Emergency" feature sends out the DTMF ANI, and cycles 
between transmit and receive, to serve as an emergency beacon to alert the 
dispatcher as to the need for immediate aid.

Encryption (Optional FVP-25 required)

For applications requiring secure communications, the optional FVP-25 Paging/ 
Encryption Unit provides scrambling and descrambling functions.

DTMF Paging (Optional FVP-25 required)

For dispatch or network operations where DTMF Paging is required, the optional 
FVP-25 Paging/Encryption fulfills this requirement, as well.

ARTS

TM

 Feature (Conventional Mode)

The Auto-Range Transponder System, a Vertex Standard exclusive, alerts the 
operator when another ARTS

TM

-equipped station (for example, a hand-held unit) 

moves out of communication range. You can then advise the other user to move 
to a better location.

TOT, BCLO, BTLO Features

Among the most useful protection features of the VX-3200 are the transmitter 
Time-Out Timer (TOT), Busy Channel Lock-Out (BCLO), and Busy Tone Lock-Out 
(BTLO), to ensure efficient network performance at all times.

MIL-Spec Rated (MIL 810 C/D/E)

The ultra-rugged design of the VX-3200 Series enables it to be fully compliant 
with the exacting specifications of MIL 810 C, D, and E, pursuant to the test 
procedures documented below. 

Compander Included

For narrow-band channel applications, the built-in Audio Companding system 
compresses the voice waveform during transmission, and expands it during reception, 

allowing full-sounding audio despite the restricted transmission bandwidth.
