Equipment Type
Because of the Model 748's flexibility, many types of equipment can be used on the same system.
Equipment type sets the characteristics of the user (radio) on the channel. It determines how call
setup is performed and whether or not the user (radio) can originate calls. The four modes or types of
equipment are described in Table 9.

Type Description
Mobile A “Mobile” is a radio that can receive and originate calls. This is the default
Equipment type. It can make full use of selective calling formats and ringout
styles. A “Mobile” must be capable of answering a call based on Answer type to
receive calls. It must also be capable of generating DTMF to originate a call.
Talkback “Talkback” is a radio that can also receive and originate calls like a “Mobile” but
has two differences when receiving calls. 1) If selective calling is used, no ringouts
are generated on the channel. If selective calling is not used, a single ringout is
transmitted instead. 2) During the Mobile answer time, the caller can “voice hail”
the radio on the channel. This is works like a “Tone/Voice” pager but the radio can
answer back if they choose.
Tone/Pager This is a pager that beeps when the correct sequence of tones are sent to it. It
does not have the ability to transmit, or to receive audio. When the Model 748 is
called, the caller enters the user number or ANI and hears simulated beeper tones
indicating to the caller that the page has been sent. Tone-only pagers cannot
originate calls.
Tone/Voice This is a pager that beeps when the correct sequence of tones are received and
unsquelches to allow a voice message to be received. It does not have the ability
to transmit. When the Model 748 is called, the caller enters the user number or
ANI and hears a single beep indicating that he can speak his voice message.
When the talk time expires, or the caller quits talking, double beeps are sent to the
caller indicating that his time is up, and the Model 748 hangs up. “Tone/Voice”
pagers cannot originate calls.
How to program it:
Access the Model 748 through your direct connected PC or terminal, or remotely from your PC
connected to a modem via the Model 748's internal modem.
Once connected to the Model 748 and the Main Menu is on the screen, type “1” and press ENTER ,
and the Interconnect Menu will appear. Type “3” and press
ENTER
, the User Menu will be
displayed using the currently selected user's data. Select the User number you wish to program (see
“User Range” later in this section). Select the item number for
Equipment type and press ENTER .
The currently selected mode or state will be shown along with a message instructing you to press the
space bar to change the mode or state, and to press
ENTER to accept the current mode or state. Each
time the space bar is pressed, the mode or state changes. Once the mode or state you desire is
displayed, press
ENTER to accept it. Note that if you accidentally pass the mode or state you want,
keep pressing the space bar and the Model 748 will wrap around (when the last choice is displayed,
it will return to the first one).
