• TONE (pager just beeps)
• NUMERIC (pager beeps and displays numbers)
• ALPHA (pager beeps and displays numbers and letters.)
The function type for TWO TONE pagers or GROUP TONE pagers is one of the following:
• TONE ONLY (send page tones only)
• TONE+ALERT (send an alert sound after sending the page tones)
• TONE+VOICE (permit phone caller to speak to the pager after sending page tones.)
• TONE+PATCH (initiate a phone patch after sending the page tones)
6. Press the arrow keys to cycle through the list of functions. Press the F1 key when the correct function is
displayed.
7. If TONE+ALERT or TONE+VOICE was selected, then you will be asked to specify the duration of the
alert or the voice connection after the paging tones have been sent. You may give a value between 0 and
31 seconds. Entering 0 will cause an alert tone of 1/2 second or use the default voice duration of 15
seconds.
8. If a TWO TONE pager has been selected, you will be asked to select the tone plan for the pager. Use the
arrow keys to scroll through the supported plan types. If the tone plan for your pager isn't listed, then the
pager's tone frequencies must be entered using the database upload command.
9. Once a pager number is entered, the OSMAC BaseOSMAC Base will respond with a prompt asking for the CAP code for
this pager. If the pager number was already in the database, it will display the CAP code already
programmed. If it was not in the database, the CAP code will default to the pager number. To edit the
CAP code, use the DEL key to backspace over it. Press F1 to enter the new CAP code.
10. If a TWO TONE pager has been selected, you may be asked to specify whether the "diagonal frequency" is
the first or second tone. Alternatively, you may select a "group tone" for the pager. This will send a single
tone to the pager with a pre-determined duration.
11. The OSMAC BaseOSMAC Base restart back at the PAGER NO = PAGER NO = prompt. It will automatically increment to the next pager
number. Press the - to exit the Program Mode when all of the pagers have been entered into the database.
Your entries into the pager database will then be saved in the internal FLASH memory.
5.2 Assigning a Group
The Group-Page feature is used to send the same page to a number of different pagers. Groups have numbers
just like pagers, and once you define a group and its members, you send pages to the group just as if it were a
single pager. When you assign a number to a group, it is important that the number is not the same as any
individual pager.
There is a limit to the number of pagers that may be assigned to any one group. This is listed in the
Specifications section of the OSMAC BaseOSMAC Base User Manual.
1. To do the group assignments, select 2-Assign GROUP from the program mode menu. The display will
then show:
GROUP NUMBER = GROUP NUMBER =
SELECT GROUPSELECT GROUP
2. Enter the number of the group you wish to work on and then press the F1 key. Valid group numbers are 1
through 16. The display will then show:
