ARTS (Auto Range Transpond System)
This system is designed to inform you when you and another ARTS-equipped sta-
tion are within communication range.
During ARTS operation, when the radio receives an incoming ARTS signal, a short
beep will sound, and “IN SVC” (“In Service”) will be displayed on the LCD for 2
seconds
. If you move out of range for more than two minutes, your radio senses
that no signal has been received; a short triple-beep will sound, and “OUT SVC”
(“Out of Service”) will be displayed on the LCD for 2 seconds
. If you subsequently
move back into communication range, as soon as the other station transmits, a short
beep will sound and “In” will be displayed again on the LCD for 2 seconds
.
: The VX-2100 only.
DTMF Paging System
(
Requires the optional FVP-25 Encryption/DTMF Pager Unit
)
This system allows paging and selective calling, using DTMF tone sequences.
When your radio is paged by a station bearing a tone sequence which matches yours,
your radio’s squelch will open and the alert will sound.
In the VX-2200, the three-digit code of the station which paged you will be dis-
played on your radio’s LCD.
