TM1215 Iss. 6.0 RPR750
On-demand option: - The pager may be programmed with this feature, which means that
the display will be blank in the quiescent state until the pager has a changed status (e.g.
call), or a button is pushed.
2.4.5 Status Information
To interrogate the pager's status, from the quiescent mode, press the CANCEL button
once. This will cause status> to be displayed, followed by each programmable status
message in priority order. Each message is displayed for 1s and when the sequence is
completed, the pager will revert to the quiescent mode. The sequence is as per Table 1
below.

2.4.6 Receiving a Call
For Multitone MK6 & MK7 code formats, there are 8 different audible alert patterns (beep
codes - see Table 2), plus one silent alert function. When a call is received using these
formats, the user is alerted (where option is selected) by:
a) the chosen audible tone alert pattern (except in Mute mode); 8, 16, or 32s duration, as
programmed;
b) the Alert LED flashing in unison with the tonal alert pattern;
c) the display showing the received message;
d) pager vibration (if selected);
e) a speech message.
Where a silent alert is transmitted, functions b, c and optionally d & e, are activated.
Calls may continue to be received whilst the pager is beeping; however the sensitivity of
the radio may be reduced during this period. If a new call is received it will take priority
and the original call will be assigned a new status and placed into the memory; unless it
has been cancelled by the User before the arrival of the second call.
