A single radio may therefore be programmed with channel sets for a number of different jurisdictions or organizations, ensuring seamless interoperability. The VX-820/870 Series without the LCD can accommodate up to 16 channels in a single memory group. Vertex Standard VX-824 Portable Radio includes CTCSS/DCS Encode and Decode High-performance Encoder/Decoder circuits for both CTCSS and Digital Code Squelch are provided, for access to tone/code controlled systems. DCS is ideal for crowded RF environments, providing superior immunity from false opening of the squelch. DTMF ANI / DTMF Paging Fleet and network operation are enhanced by the built-in DTMF ANI circuit. ANI Encoding and Decoding Automatic Number Identification, triggered by the pressing of the PTT key, is available in the most popular industry standard formats, via the optional VME-100 (for Encoding only) or VMDE-200 (for Encoding and Decoding) module 2 Tone Encode and Multiple 2 Tone Decode The VX-820/870 Series provides unmatched flexibility in its S canning features. Designed to optimize operation in a wide variety of system environments, these scanning capabilities ensure that you never miss an important call! For operation in systems requiring Companding, the VX- 820/870 Series portables include both Wide- and Narrowband Companding circuitry, programmable channel by channel. Vertex Standard VX-821 Portable Radio Has User Selectable Tone One of the front panel’s "programmable" keys may be designated so as to allow the user to select a CTCSS or DCS tone from a pre-defined Tone Table. Scan Channel Scan, Priority Scan, Dual Watch, TA Scan The VX-820/870 Series can transmit a 2-Tone paging call, and can receive 2-Tone calls using different tone combinations. VX-829/824/879/874 with LCD: Maximum 512 Channels / 32 Groups VX-821/871 w/o LCD: Maximum 16 Channels / 1 Group CTCSS / DCS Encode and Decode DTMF ANI / DTMF Paging (optional FVP-25 required for DTMF Paging) 2-Tone Encode and Multiple 2-Tone Decode User Selectable Tone (VX-829/824/879/874) Scan: Channel Scan, Priority Scan, Dual Watch, Follow-me Scan, Follow-me Dual Watch, and TA Scan Compander (Wide and Narrow Band) RX/TX Battery Saver When engaged, the Receive-mode Battery Saver rapidly pulses the portable on and off, reducing current consumption and extending battery life. If a call is received, the Battery Saver is disengaged, and normal operation resumes. On transmit, the Battery Saver will reduce transmitter power, thus extending operating time, when you are within close range of a strong repeater or dispatch center. Programmable Function Keys Customization of feature access is easily accomplished at the time of programming, thanks to the "programmable" keys that may be assigned functions needed most in your operating environment. Vertex Standard VX-824 Portable Radio is PC Programmable All channel and other configuration data may be uploaded to the portable by the dealer in a matter of minutes, allowing efficient setup of a fleet of radios when rapid deployment is required. The Lone Worker feature is designed to emit an alarm for 30 seconds when the Lone Worker Timer (programmed by the dealer) has expired. If the user does not reset the timer by pressing the PTT switch, the radio switches to the Emergency mode. Lone Worker The Lone Worker feature is designed to emit an alarm for 30 seconds when the Lone Worker Timer (programmed by the dealer) has expired. If the user does not reset the timer by pressing the PTT switch, the radio switches to the Emergency mode. Rugged, Submersible Design The VX-820 Series portables are housed in an ultra-rugged, impact-resistant case that is designed to exceed U.S. MILSTD 810C/D/E/F standards for shock, vibration, and driving rain; it also meets international waterproofing standard IP55 (water jets) and IP57 (submersion in water to a depth of 3 feet for up to 30 minutes). For even more demanding environments, the VX-870 Series version meets IP68 specifications (submersion to 6 feet for3 hours), and is available via special order Submersible External Speaker/Microphone MH-66 (Optional) When operating in an emergency situation where immersion of the radio and/or its accessories could occur, the optional MH-66 Series Speaker/Microphone is rated to the same submergibility specifications as the portable itself (IP57),ensuring that your essential communications won’t be interrupted if the microphone gets dropped into the water. Vertex Standard VX-821 Portable Radio Has High Power and Low Power Output The VX-820/870 Series provides up to five solid Watts of transmitter power, for extended communications range. For more localized applications, the power output may be reduced to 2.5 W, 1 W, or 1/4 W, for enhanced battery life. Wide Band /Narrow Band (12.5 / 20 / 25 kHz) When programming radios for use in different jurisdictions, the VX-820/870 Series portables may be set up, channel by channel, for use in 12.5 kHz, 20 kHz, or 25 kHz channel spacing environments. Deviation and bandwidth are automatically set according to the configuration you choose. Built-in 5 Tone Signaling For advanced network or fleet operations, a 5-Tone Encoder-Decoder circuit is included in the VX-820/870 Series. An expensive option on many competing brands, this included feature enhances operation without impacting your budget. Loud 700mW Audio Output in the Vertex Standard VX-824 Portable Radio Ideal for reception in noisy environments, high-powered audio of the VX-820/870 Series is coupled to a large internal speaker, assuring solid copy throughout difficult crowd control, fire, or sporting-event operations. Speed Dial (16 Key Version Only) An easy-to-use DTMF Speed Dialer feature is included in the VX-829/879, for specialized selective calling, telephone interconnect, or other applications. Voice Storage (Optional DVS-5 required) The optional DVS-5 Digital Voice Storage Unit allows you to store and play back up to 120 seconds of incoming received audio, so you can archive an important incoming message. Large LCD (Dot Matrix / 12 Characters + 7 Segments / 3 Characters (VX-824/829/874/879) The large, easy-to-read display includes a 12-character dot matrix that provides a wealth of information about the operating channel, as well as various status icons. Illuminated using Vertex Standard’s renowned Omni-Glow™ back-lighting, the VX-829/ 824/879/874’s LCD is clearly visible at night, with minimal degradation of your night vision .
