MULTI CONFIGURATION SYSTEM
ONE RF DECK TO MULTIPLE HEAD CAPABILITIES
A single VX-6000 RF Deck may be controlled by two
different Control Heads, allowing control of the radio from
more than one location. Depending on the installation
requirements, both Control Heads may be connected
directly to the RF Deck, or the two Control Heads may be
connected in a series "Daisy Chain" configuration.

250 CHANNEL CAPACITY
Huge 250-channel capacity may be partitioned into as many
as 20 Memory Groups, with no limit on the number of
channels in each Group. A single radio may therefore be
programmed with channel sets for a number of different
jurisdictions or organizations.
PRIORITY SCAN
The VX-6000’s versatile scanning system includes a Priority
Scan function, which provides scanning of all channels (or
channels within a Memory Group) while maintaining a priority
watch on a particularly important channel. Scanning will halt
immediately, and operation will revert to the Priority Channel if
activity is detected on the Priority Channel.
GROUP SCAN
The versatile scanning options allow simple scanning of selected
channels, and scanning with a priority channel. The group scan
feature allows scanning of multiple groups at the same time.
This is critical for those mutual aid and disaster preparedness
situations where communications among many agencies is a must.
USER SELECTABLE TONES / CODES
High-performance Encoder/Decoder circuits for both CTCSS and
Digital Code Squelch are provided for access to tone/code
controlled systems.
BUILT IN 25 PIN (DB-25) ACCESSORY CONNECTOR
The VX-6000 includes a built-in standard DB-25 connector, for
ease of integration of the radio into your communications system.
The DB-25 connector includes a number of logic status lines,
Squelch state and level indicators, and
Data I/O connections. Horn
other accessories also can be connected
through the DB-25 connector.
INTERNAL ACCESSORY INTERFACING
The VX-6000 Series is easily interfaced to 3rd-party accessories.
The optional CN-6 Interface Unit provides a quick interconnection
platform for signaling, control, and other accessory boards used
in public safety environments.
DTMF SIGNALING & DIALING FEATURES
When used with the optional MH-53B7A DTMF Microphone,
VX-6000 may be configured for both manual and Speed Dial
DTMF calling. All versions provide programmable PTT ANI for
business or fleet applications.

CTCSS / DCS ENCODE + DECODE

HIGH PERFORMANCE
POWER OUTPUT: 120 W (LOW BAND), 110 W (VHF), 100 W (UHF)
The VX-6000’s construction includes a massive, die-cast
outer case which doubles as the heatsink. And the Automatic
Power Control (APC) circuit ensures stable power output
over a very wide range of ambient temperatures.
WIDE-BAND COVERAGE
Coverage beyond typical frequency limits allows programming
in "guard band" channel allocations, and ensures compatibility
for programming in a wide variety of locations.
12.5/25 kHz BANDWIDTH PROGRAMMABLE PER CHANNEL
The VX-6000 may be programmed with Wide or Narrow operating
bandwidths, channel by channel, to conform to your local channel
environment. Ideal for multi-jurisdiction operations.
2.5 kHz STEP FOR VHF/UHF
Ensuring full compatibility with all channel loading requirements,
the VX-6000’s synthesizer provides 2.5 kHz resolution. Channel
programming therefore is straightforward in all configuration situations.
COMPANDER INCLUDED
For narrow-band channel applications, the built-in Audio
Companding system compresses the voice waveform during
transmission, and expands it during reception, allowing fullsounding audio despite the restricted transmission bandwidth.
SECURITY
EMERGENCY FUNCTIONS
The VX-6000 may be programmed to transmit an Emergency
DTMF ANI burst, with or without a live microphone engaged,
to alert the dispatcher to an emergency situation requiring
assistance to the user.
ENCRYPTION
The FVP-25 Encryption Unit or FVP-35 Rolling code encryption
Unit provides security for your important
private security communications, and it also includes a DTMF
Paging function(FVP-25) for selective calling.

7 PROGRAMMABLE BACKLIT KEYS
The front panel keys may be programmed by the dealer for a
variety of operating functions, allowing customization of the
front panel functions to your unique requirements. The keys
are illuminated from behind, as well, for easy viewing at night.
LOUD 5W/10W AUDIO OUTPUT
The VX-6000’s high-powered audio (5 Watts standard, 10 Watts
optional) is coupled to a large, front-facing speaker, producing
high-quality, crisp audio that will punch through even in the
noisy environments experienced by public safety officers.
STATUS QUICK-CHECK (SQC) FEATURE
The VX-6000 can be programmed to include the Status Quick
Check (SQC) feature, which allows the user to check the
configuration of all controls, keys, and knobs on the radio. This
enables the operator to avoid missing important communications
in the event that a control or switch is set to the wrong position.
RADIO TO RADIO CLONE FEATURE
For quick programming of VX-6000 radios for an emergency
task force, the Clone feature allows copying of all channel
and other configuration data from one VX-6000 to another,
using the optional CT-72 Cloning Cable.
DIE-CAST CONSTRUCTION ALUMINUM CHASSIS/ENCLOSURE
The one-piece die-cast enclosure for the VX-6000 doubles
as its chassis, yielding extreme strength for resistance against
shock and vibration. This uniquely
rugged construction
specifications and functionality
will be maintained for many years,
despite the shock, vibration, and
other abuse typically experienced
by radios in public safety use.
HIGH-RELIABILITY CONSTRUCTION
The ABS front panel is
sealed by a robust O-ring,
and all switches are covered
by U-shaped silicone rubber
gaskets to protect the internal
circuitry from dust, humidity,
salt fog, and driving rain.
WATER-SHIELD MICROPHONE CONNECTION
The multi-pin microphone connector on the side of the VX-6000,
sealed for protection against weather, provides a convenient
connection point for the available microphones. Its gold-plated
contacts ensure many years of reliable service.
