EPCS OPERATION
The EPCS (Enhanced Paging & Code Squelch) feature allows addressing calls to a specific
station (Paging), and choosing to receive only the calls directed to your station (Code
Squelch).
The EPCS feature uses two pairs of (alternately switched) CTCSS tones, which are stored
in the pager memories. The receiver remains silent until it receives the CTCSS tone pair
that matches those stored in the receiving pager memory.
1. Store the CTCSS tone pairs using Set Mode item “J04 PAGER CODE” in the “SIG-
NALING” group. The Sub menus “1: RX” and “2: RX” set the receiving tone codes,
and Sub menus “3: TX” and “4:TX” set the transmit tone codes.
