All,
Been evaluating one of these for work to see if it will fulfill our needs for fire department alerting. The various agencies I work with use either 2-tone alerting (mostly for the volunteers) and Call Alert (for the fire stations staffed with full-timers). For call alert, there are different IDs used for different functions.
Got the thing set up for 2-tone just fine, working like a charm, which is nice.
However, Call Alert is proving to be another story. I found the member and Private Call ID setting with no trouble, but there doesn't appear to be a way to add additional call alert IDs, nor does there appear to be a way to assign a call alert to a specific knob position with selective call, so the pager alerts only when that CA is received.
The Unication White Papers specifically mention the ability to use call alert and enter multiple call alert IDs, but if it's there I sure can't find it.
Anybody had any luck along these lines?
PS - Pager is Phase II enabled (not that we're using it at this time), firmware V1.00-T08, programming software version V0.3.11beta09.
