Tone Scanning works either in the VFO or Memory modes. 26 FT-2800M OPERATING MANUAL ADVANCED OPERATION CTCSS/DCS OPERATION CTCSS/DCS Bell Paging During CTCSS Decode or DCS operation, you may set up the FT-2800M such that a ringing "bell" sound alerts you to the fact that a call is coming in. Here is the procedure for activating the CTCSS/DCS Bell: 1. Set the transceiver up for CTCSS Decode ("Tone Squelch") or DCS operation, as described previously. Adjust the operating frequency to the desired channel. Press and hold in the [MHz(SET)] key for one second, then rotate the DIAL knob to select "04 BELL. " 4. Rotate the DIAL knob to set the desired number of rings of the Bell. The available choices are 1, 3, 5, or 8 rings, REPEAT (continuous ringing), or OFF. Press and hold in the [MHz(SET)] key for one second to save the new setting and exit to normal operation. When you are called by a station whose transceiver is sending a CTCSS tone or DCS code which matches that set into your Decoder, the Bell will ring in accordance with this programming. Split Tone Operation The FT-2800M can be operated in a "Split Tone" configuration, to enable operation on repeaters using a mix of both CTCSS and DCS control. Press and hold in the [MHz(SET)] key for one second, then rotate the DIAL knob to select "28 SQ TYP. " 2. Press the [MHz(SET)] key, then rotate the DIAL knob to select the desired operating mode: DC ENC: DCS Encode only ("DC" icon will appear while operating) T+DCS: Encodes a CTCSS Tone and Decodes a DCS code (the "T" and "DCS" icons will appear during operation) TSQ+DC: Encodes a DCS code and Decodes a CTCSS Tone (the "TSQ" and "DC" icons will appear during operation) 3. Press the [MHz(SET)] key momentarily, then rotate the DIAL knob one click counterclockwise to select Menu "27 SQ TNF. " 4. Press the [MHz(SET)] key momentarily to enable the adjustment of the CTCSS Tone. Rotate the DIAL knob to select the desired CTCSS Tone. Press the [MHz(SET)] key momentarily, then rotate the DIAL knob one click counterclockwise to select Menu "26 SQ DCS. " 7. Press the [MHz(SET)] key momentarily to enable the adjustment of the DCS Code. Rotate the DIAL knob to select the desired DCS Code (a three-digit number). When you have made your selections, press and hold in the [MHz(SET)] key for one second to save the new setting and exit to normal operation. FT-2800M OPERATING MANUAL 27 ADVANCED OPERATION DTMF AUTODIALER OPERATION Nine DTMF Autodialer memories are available on the FT-2800M. These DTMF Autodialer memories can store up to 16 digits of a telephone number for repeater autopatch or other use. To load DTMF Autodialer memories, use the following procedure: 1. [. . . ] HOLD: The scanner will halt on a signal it encounters. It will not restart automatically; you must manually re-initiate scanning if you wish to resume. 5 SEC: The scanner will halt for five seconds only, after which scanning will resume (whether or not the other station is still transmission). 24 SHIFT Function: Sets the magnitude of the Repeater Shift Available Values: 00. 00 - 99. 95 (MHz) (only shifts of less than 4 MHz will work) Default: 00. 60 (MHz) 25 SKIP Function: Selects the Memory Scan mode.
