Introduction - Ericsson PCS Operator's Manual

The Ericsson GE PCS™ Standard/Scan/DTMF portable radios are
lightweight, full-featured
communications. The PCS comes in 2-, 8-, and 16-channel versions.
The SCAN function exists on the 8- and 16-channel radios and allows
monitoring of all channels. Any channel may be scanned with or without
a priority level. One channel can be programmed for Priority 1 (P1) and
another for Priority 2 (P2), with any or all remaining channels
programmed as non-priority channels. It also allows HOME channel
selection or Emergency mode transmission.
The User (also known as Universal) Device Connector (UDC), located
on the side of the radio, provides connections for external audio
accessories. This connector also allows the radio system personnel to
connect programming equipment and program the per-channel and
overall radio features. Consult the radio system personnel to determine
the programmed features of your radio. Features that are programmable
on a per-channel basis include:
