Obtaining Pagers for Your Paging System 

You can use a wide variety of paging receiver types with WaveWare v

8

 Paging System, including Alphanumeric, 

Numeric and Tone/vibe and Wireless Message Centers. 

You can obtain WaveWare compatible paging receivers from many sources, including WaveWare Technologies, 
Motorola, NEC, Panasonic, and others. The paging receivers that you obtain for use with the WaveWare v

8

 

Paging System should meet the following basic specifications: 

 

 

Frequency - All paging receivers used with the WaveWare v

8

 Paging System must be of the same frequency 

and must match the frequency of the paging system transmitter. See the label on the WaveWare Transmitter 
Unit to identify the operating frequency of your paging system. 

 

POCSAG - All paging receivers used with the WaveWare v

8

 Paging System must be 

POCSAG

 Compatible.  

POCSAG

 is the paging protocol most frequently used in the paging industry. 

 

Pager Type - You can mix different paging receiver types in a WaveWare installation. You can obtain the 
following paging receiver types for use with the WaveWare Paging System: 

 

Alphanumeric 

 

  Numeric 

 

  Tone/vibe only, with or without multiple tone/vibrate cadence features. 
  The WaveWare SPS-5 v

8

 Paging System support pagers with multiple tone/vibrate features. 

      Tone/Vibe Pagers have two Cap Codes and have multiple tone/vibrate features. 

 

 

 

WaveWare Wireless Message Centers (allow group message notification on scrolling 

multicolor LED    

      Displays, using the WaveWare v

8

 Paging System to communicate to the message centers). 

 

Paging Data Rate - You can mix different paging data rates (baud rates) in a WaveWare installation. The data 
rate of the paging receivers can be your choice of 

512, 1200, or 2400

 bps (bits per second). 

 

Cap Codes - Each paging receiver used in a WaveWare v

8

 Paging System installation must have one or 

more capcodes (addresses) programmed into it. Each paging receiver used with a particular WaveWare 
installation, regardless of paging receiver type, must have a unique capcode programmed into it, in order to 
be able to transmit messages to that individual paging receiver. Contact your paging systems dealer for 
capcode assignment information.
