Private Station ID Code
Obviously, the remote recording system just described could be a prankster's delight,
so a special private station ID code is also programmable in the DVS-1 to prevent
anyone from accessing the memories who does not know your ID code. Your ID
code may be any number from 0001 to 9999. Once you have selected your ID, be
careful who you divulge it to.
To set your ID code:
(1)
From the frequency display, press VOICE to activate the DVS-1, and then press
F/WRITE followed by the RPT button. The display now shows the current ID
code (or "0000" if none is stored), with the rightmost digit blinking.
(2)
Rotate the tuning knob to change the blinking digit.
(3)
Press the DWN button on the microphone to shift the blinking digit one place
to the left.
(4)
Repeat steps 2 and 3 until the display shows the desired ID code number. Then
press the RPT button again to return to the siginal DVS-1 display.
Once you have programmed your ID code, any station calling in with a remote
command (when the DVS-I is set for remote operation) must precede his DTMF
command with the ID code you just stored. Leading zeros are not required, so, for
example, if your ID code is 0001, remote commands need only be prefixed by a
DTMF 1.
Any remote commands received without the ID code prefix will be ignored (unless
you set the ID code to 0000).
Note: if the remote transceiver is very close to the DVS-1 it may be overloaded by
the rf field, which may cause the DVS-1 to shut down (and return the display to the
operating frequency) after responding to a remote command.
