Paging
Term
Definition
Capcode
The ID of a pager.
Instant Call
An Instant Call can have multiple pages (called a page stack) assigned to it.
Each page in the stack can be a different format (e.g., DTMF, Two-Tone,
Alert) and be steered to different channel(s).
Inter-Stack
Delay
This is more like an inter-page delay, as it is the time delay between pages in a
stack. This delay will only occur for manually entered page stacks (i.e., for two
or more pages entered via Paging/DTMF keypad). Because each page can be
sent out over different channels, Instant-Call (single button) paging stacks
always use the Keyup Delay between pages even if the next page uses the
same channel as the previous page.
Keyup Delay
The time between a channel finished keying up the transmitter and the start of
the first page in a stack.
Leading
Digit
The leading digit of a page is used to specify the format of that page.
Page
A single leading digit and associated capcode to be sent out on a channel/
frequency.
Page Enter
This paging function is used during manual page entry (via the console
DTMF/paging keypad) to terminate the entry and add the page to the stack.
The use of this key is only required for variable-length paging formats (i.e.,
DTMF). Fixed-length paging formats (i.e., Two-Tone and Alerts) are self-
terminating.
