assigned to it or the complete entry is not a valid capcode under the rules for the format in
use, then the remote will return an error message and prompt the operator to try again.
Paging entries can be canceled or cleared either before or after a page is made by pressing
the CLEAR button which is next to the upper right hand corner of the paging keypad.
When the function of the TRANSMIT button is tied to paging, pressing TRANSMIT will
result in a re-transmitting of the last page entered as long as it remains in the display. The
operator should press the CLEAR key to return the TRANSMIT button to supporting
voice transmissions.
One of the attributes that can be programmed on an individual basis for paging users is
whether or not a “talk-time” comes after the page. If a talk-time is assigned then the
remote will keep the transmitter keyed and pass voice audio to it for the programmed
duration. If the operator wishes to extend the talk-time, this can be done by pressing and
holding any of the PTT controls at the remote (it doesn't have to be the TRANSMIT
button). If the operator wishes to cancel the talk-time before it would normally expire,
then momentarily “tapping” any of the PTT controls will cancel the rest of the talk-time.
Indicators
Refer to
while reviewing the display descriptions for the Digital Tone Remotes.
Transmit
The TRANSMIT button has a red LED inside it that is used to indicate when the base
station is in transmit. The remote turns this indicator on and off based on whether or not it
is detecting low level guard tone on the system. This means it will indicate properly
regardless of which remote in the system has sent the keying tone to the transmitter.
Monitor
The red LED inside the button programmed for the Monitor function will be lit when ever
the remote (or any other remote in the system) has unsquelched the receiver. If another
function has been assigned to this key, the LED will be lit whenever that function is
selected.
Programmable Keys
The top row of programmable buttons all have two LED's associated with them, a green
and a red. The green LED being lit would indicate the first frequency being selected and
the red indicates that the alternate frequency is selected when the button is programmed
for two channels. The second row of programmable buttons only have a single red LED
each. This LED being lit indicates that the button's function is selected.
LCD Display
The Digital Tone Remotes are equipped with a two line by sixteen character LCD display.
This display is used to provide general status information and specific information about
pages being made. The top line is used to show the channel selected (F1, F2, ...etc.) and
