Vertex Standard VX-160 Series Radio Features:
CTCSS / DCS ENCODE + DECODE
High-performance Encoder/Decoder circuits for both CTCSS and Digital Code Squelch are provided, for access to tone/code controlled systems. DCS is ideal for crowded RF environments, providing superior immunity from false opening of squelch.
DTMF ANI Decode
The VX-160 includes a DTMF Automatic Number Identifier (ANI) circuit, which will respond to an incoming ANI burst for selective paging of an individual portable.
VERSATILE Scanning Features
The high-speed scanning capability of the VX-160 includes All-Channel scanning, plus Dual Watch and Priority Channel capability. And with Follow-Me scanning, a designated channel may be watched during scanning of other channels.
Dual 2-Tone Decode
This built in feature allows you to decode up to two, 2-tone pairs per channel. These can be used for two individual pager calls, or one for Individual and one for Group call.
BCLO, BTLO, and TOT
To facilitate efficient channel management, the VX-160 provides Busy Channel Lock-Out (BCLO) and Busy Tone Lock-Out (BTLO) features. What's more, the transmitters Time-Out Timer (TOT) function prevents a stuck microphone condition from jamming a channel for an extended period of time.
ARTS (Auto Range Transponding System)
Included in the VX-160 is Vertex Standards exclusive ARTS feature, which can be critically important in search-and-rescue applications. ARTS provides a hand-shake with other ARTS - equipped transceivers, and the display indicates if an Out of Range condition exists. The base station can then alert the field unit to move to a better location.
TX/RX Battery Saver Circuit
To maximize battery life, the VX-160 includes both transmit- and receive-mode battery savers. On transmit, the portable will reduce power when the incoming signal is very strong. On receive the radio will put itself into a pulsing sleep mode, periodically checking for channel activity.
PC Programming
The channel and feature configurations are easily programmed in minutes by the dealer, using the optional CT-42A Programming Cable and CE44 Programming Software.
Radio to Radio Clone Feature
For quick programming of VX-160 radios for fleet use, the Clone feature allows copying of all channel and other configuration data from one VX-160 to another, using the optional CT-27 Cloning Cable.
500 mW Audio Output
Ideal for reception in noisy environments, the VX-160s high - powered audio is coupled to a large internal speaker, assuring solid copy throughout difficult construction site or field operations.
