programmed timeout time. The pager will then automatically returns to selective call
standby mode.
Revert with N Time Delay - Adding the N time delay to revert operation causes the
WatchDog pager to disregard the state of the carrier during the N time. The N time
begins immediately after the alerting cycle and ends on N timeout. At this time, the
WatchDog will enter normal revert to carrier squelch operation.
Auto Reset with N Time Delay - Adding the N time delay to revert operation causes the
WatchDog pager to disregard the state of the carrier during the N time. The N time
begins immediately after the alerting cycle and ends on N timeout. At this time, the
WatchDog will enter normal auto reset operation.
Low Battery Alert
The WatchDog pager will provide an audible tone alert “beep beep” and the display will
indicate a low battery condition by no bars being displayed in the battery ICON.
Additionally, after alerting or any audio condition ends, the display will show “LOW
BATTERY” in text format. The audible low battery reminder is every 2 minutes.
Programmable Text Messaging
The WatchDog pager allows programming up to a 14 character message to be displayed
when an alert is received. Each address (cap code) can be programmed with a different
message. For example, if your addresses are typically used for specific emergencies such
as fire, hazardous material emergency, water rescue, chief’s call, etc., then a 14 character
message can be displayed depending upon the address alerted. You will immediately
know what type of emergency by the address that was alerted.
Alert Time Stamping
The WatchDog will time stamp every alert up to a maximum of 16 alerts. Each will have
the month, day and time the alert was detected. The format for the time stamp display
can be set in the programmer. The format is MM/DD or DD/MM. The time can be set as
AM or PM or in a 24 hour format.
WatchDog Scan Operation
The WatchDog pager has three types of scan, “Channel Scan”, “Selective Call Scan” and
“Priority Scan”.
Channel Scan - When the WatchDog is in the Channel Scan mode, it will alternately
search from frequency 1 to frequency 2 looking for the presence of a carrier. The
primary function of channel scan is to allow monitoring any activity on either channel.
Only one channel can be actively monitored at a time. If activity is detected on either F1
or F2 the, WatchDog pager will lock onto that channel until channel activity ceases. At
this time, the pager will resume scanning between channels.
Priority Scan - If Priority Scan is selected, the WatchDog pager will alternately search
from frequency 1 to frequency 2 looking for the presence of a carrier. Alerting can only
