About the Digital Personal ID (DP-ID) feature
When operating in digital C4FM communications, each transceiver is programmed with,
and sends its own individual ID information (Radio ID) in each transmission. The DP-ID
function and the individual identification information, makes possible group communica-
tions of stations that are within communications range.
Digital Personal ID (DP-ID) feature opens the speaker audio only when a signal set to
the same DP-ID in the Digital Mode is received, even if each transceiver is set a differ-
ent Digital Group ID (DG-ID) number.
The digital C4FM repeater equipped with the DP-ID function allows preferentially contact
in an emergency, regardless of the repeater setting or if the repeater is being used with-
out the DG-ID setting.
