3 Press the PTT switch or the <F2> button and one of the following occur:
- If five beeps sound, the system received the page and the paged radio is on the air and
received it. The page mode is automatically exited.
- If the system received the page but the called radio is not on the air, a single beep
sounds and “No Ack” is displayed 6 seconds after the PTT switch is pressed. Auto
exit then occurs.
6.6 Messaging
The messaging feature allows preprogrammed messages to be sent to a dispatcher. Up to
255 messages can be preprogrammed, and they are identified by an alias. If a Message

1 Momentarily press the Message option button or select that menu parameter. The alias
of the last message sent is displayed.
2 If required, press the Up/Down buttons to display the desired message. Then send the
message by pressing the <F2> button or momentarily pressing the PTT switch. One of
the following events then occurs:
- If five beeps sound and “Ack Recvd” is displayed, the message was received and
automatically acknowledged by the system.
- If after five tries the message is not acknowledged, a tone sounds and “No Ack” is
displayed.
Note Only the message number assigned to the alias is sent – not the actual text of the alias. For
example, if MSG 1 is assigned to alias “In Service”, “MSG 1” is sent – not “In Service”.
