FT-60R OPERATING MANUAL 43 EPCS (ENHANCED PAGING & CODE SQUELCH) The FT-60R includes an Enhanced CTCSS tone encoder/decoder and a dedicated microprocessor providing paging and selective calling feature. This allows you to place a call to a specific station (Paging), and to receive calls of your choice directed only to you (Code Squelch). The paging and code squelch systems use two pairs of (alternately switched) CTCSS tones which are stored in the pager memories. Basically, your receiver remains silent until it receives the CTCSS tone pair that matches those stored in the Receiving Pager Memory. The squelch then opens so the caller is heard, and the paging ringer immediately sounds, if activated. When you close the PTT switch to transmit, the CTCSS tone pair which is stored in the Transmitting Pager Memory will be transmitted automatically. On the paged radio, the squelch will close automatically after the incoming page ends. Meanwhile, on the paging radio, the Enhanced Paging and Code Squelch system will be disabled after the PTT switch is released after the paging transmission. You may re-activate the Enhanced Paging and Code Squelch system again using Set Mode Item 29: PAGER, if desired. Storing the CTCSS Tone Pairs for EPCS Operation 1. Press the [F/W] key, then press the [0( )SET] key to enter the Set mode. Rotate the DIAL knob to select Set Mode Item 31: PAG. CDR for the Receiving CTCSS Tone Pair or Set Mode Item 32: PAG. CDT for the Transmitting CTCSS Tone Pair. Press the [F/W] key momentarily to enable adjustment of this Set Mode Item. Rotate the DIAL knob to set the CTCSS Tone number which corresponds tothe first tone of the CTCSS Tone Pair. Press the [ (MHz)] or [ (MHz)] key, then rotate the DIAL knob to set the CTCSS Tone number which corresponds to the second tone of the CTCSS Tone Pair. Press the PTT switch to save the new setting and exit to normal operation. CTCSS TONE NUMBER T h e F T- 6 0 R does not recognize the order of the 1st tone and the 2nd tone. In other words, for example, the FT-60R considers both CTCSS pairs "10, 35" and "35, 10" to be identical.

Press the [F/W] key, then press the [0( )SET] key to enter the Set mode. Press the [F/W] key momentarily to enable adjustment of this Set Mode Item. Press the PTT switch to save the new setting and activate the Enhanced Paging & Code Squelch. To disable the Enhanced Paging & Code Squelch, just repeat the above procedure, rotating the DIAL knob to select "PAG. OFF" in step 4 above. 1) In the factory default configuration, you may recall Set Mode Item 29: PAGER by pressing [F/W] [7(P1)]. [. . . ] Set Mode Item 46 [SKIP] Function: Selects the Memory Scan "Skip" channel-selection mode. Available Values: OFF/SKIP/ONLY Default: OFF SKIP: The scanner will "skip" the flagged channels during scanning. ONLY: The scanner will only scan channels that are flagged (Preferential Scan List). OFF: All memory channels will be scanned (the "flag" will be ignored). 76 FT-60R OPERATING MANUAL SET (MENU) MODE Set Mode Item 47 [SPLIT] Function: Enables/Disables split CTCSS/DCS coding. [. . . ]
