The
VX-177
allows you to utilize a DTMF (Dual-Tone, Multi-Frequency) tone encoder/
decoder, with a dedicated microprocessor providing paging and selective calling features
now that you've installed the optional
FTD-7
DTMF Paging Unit. This capability allows
you to make a call to a specific station (Paging), and to receive calls of your choice di-
rected only to you (Code Squelch).
The paging and code squelch systems use 3-digit numeric codes (000 - 999) which are
stored in the DTMF Pager Memories. Basically, your receiver remains silent until it re-
ceives the 3-digit DTMF pager code that matches those stored in the DTMF Pager Memory.
The squelch then opens so the caller is heard, and the LCD displays the 3-digit DTMF
pager code which was received. Also, the paging ringer immediately sounds, if the Bell
function is activated. When you close the
PTT
switch to transmit, the 3-digit DTMF pager
code which is stored in the last selected DTMF Pager Memory register will be transmitted
automatically.
On the paged radio, the squelch will close automatically five seconds after the incoming
page ends (you may now resume DTMF Pager operation).
Storing the 3-digit code for the DTMF Pager Operation
1.
Press the [
F
] key, then press the [
0
(
SET
)] key, to enter the Set mode.
2.
Rotate the
DIAL
knob to select Set Mode Item 56:

Mode Item.
4.
Rotate the
DIAL
knob to select the DTMF Pager Memory regis-
ter into which you wish to store the access code.
5.
Press the [
F
] key momentarily. The first digit will blink.
6.
Rotate the
DIAL
knob to select the first digit of the 3-digit DTMF
pager code. The “
A
” and “
D
” keys are “
wild cards
.”
7.
Press the [
F
] key momentarily to accept the first digit and move
to the second digit of the 3-digit DTMF pager code.
8.
Repeat the previous steps until you have completed the 3-digit
DTMF pager code.
9.
Press the [
REV
(
HOME
)] key to toggle the decoder “on” and
“off.” When the decoder is set to “off,” the “
- -
” notation appears
between the DTMF pager memory register number and the 3-
digit DTMF pager code; for example, “
P2- -123
.”
The 3-digit DTMF pager code which does not have the “
- -
” no-
tation is used for encode only.
