23 DATA COMMUNICATION
Data communications can be established by using
FleetSync or connecting an external modem to the
transceiver.
23.1 Data Communication
Configuration
The following functions can be configured for data
communications by using KPG-101D:
•
Data
• Data Zone-CH/GID
• Data Transmit with QT/DQT
•
COM port
23.1.1 Data
The CH/GID can be used for data or voice
communications. The transceiver mutes the speaker if
the CH/GID is configured for data communications.
The CH/GID can be configured for data communications
by using KPG-101D.
Configuration using KPG-101D
•
Configuring Data for the channel (Refer to FPRG
6.4.19 Data.)
•
Configuring Data for the Group ID (Refer to FPRG
6.6.14 Data.)
23.1.2 Data Zone-CH/GID
Data Zone-CH/GID can be used to separate the CH/GIDs
for data communications from the CH/GIDs for voice
communications.
The transceiver sends a message after jumping to the
Data Zone-CH/GID configured for the current zone when
following items are configured and the transceiver sends
a Status Message, Short Message or Long Message.
•
Status Message on Data Zone-CH/GID
•
Short Message on Data Zone-CH/GID
•
Long Message on Data Zone-CH/GID
The transceiver returns to the previous Zone-CH/GID
when the transmission ends.
Data Zone-CH/GID can be configured by using
KPG-101D.

CH/GID (Refer to FPRG 6.12.3 Parameter Tab -
Status Message on Data Zone-CH/GID.)
•

GID (Refer to FPRG 6.12.3 Parameter Tab - Short
Message on Data Zone-CH/GID.)
• Configuring the Long Message on Data Zone-CH/
GID (Refer to FPRG 6.12.3 Parameter Tab - Long
Message on Data Zone-CH/GID.)
23.1.3 Data Transmit with QT/DQT
Data Transmit with QT/DQT can be used for multiplexing
QT/DQT on channels for data transmission.
The function can be used on channels for sending a
Status Message, Short Message or Long Message. This
function is also available to establish data
communications using an external device.
While a repeater uses QT/DQT signaling, the transceiver
performs data communications with multiplexing QT/DQT
when this function is enabled.
When data and voice communications shares the same
channel and data transmission sound is not necessary
this function must be disabled. In this case, QT/DQT is
not multiplexed with the data transmission.
Data Transmit with QT/DQT can be configured by using
KPG-101D.

23.1.4 COM port
The COM port is a serial communication port. The
functionality of a serial communication port can be
selected.
COM port 0 or 1 can be selected.
Communication Port on page 28.)
COM 0 is assigned to the 2-pin jack.
COM 1 is located at the TXD and RXD in the optional
board area.
COM port can be configured by using KPG-101D.
