Vertex Standard VX-P920 Brochure & Specs page 4

HIGH PERFORMANCE
Power Output: 5 W
The VX-920/970 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/Narrow (12.5/20/25 kHz)
Programmable per Channel
When programming radios for use in different jurisdictions,
the VX-920/970 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-920/970
Series. An expensive option on many competing brands,
this included feature enhances operation without impacting
your budget.
Multi-Band Reception
(optional)
The optional SRX-3 (UHF) and SRX-4 (VHF) Multi-Band
Receiver Units expand the versatility of the VX-920/970
Series significantly. For example, a UHF version of the VX-
920/970 Series may have the SRX-4 installed, expanding
reception to include both UHF and VHF channels so that
information or commands from a dispatch center will never
be missed.
Loud 700 mW Audio Output
Ideal for reception in noisy environments, high-powered
audio of the VX-920/970 Series is coupled to a large
internal speaker, assuring solid copy throughout difficult
crowd control, fire, or sporting-event operations.
Clear Voice
(Improves TX Audio in Noisy Environments)
The unique Clear Voice feature provides a specialized form
of audio processing that helps the user's voice stand out
more clearly when he or she is operating in a very noisy
environment.
Speed Dial
(16-key Version only)
An easy-to-use DTMF Speed Dialer feature is included in
the VX-929/979, 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.
EASY USER INTERFACE
7-Color LED for Incoming Call Alert
The front panel of the VX-920/970 Series
includes an ultra-bright LED that can display up
to seven different colors, with a variable flash
pattern, to alert the operator when a 2-Tone or
5-Tone call has come in, and during Emergency
mode operation.
6
Large LCD (Dot Matrix/12 Characters + 7 Segments/
3 Characters) (VX-929/924/979/974)
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-929/924/ 979/974's LCD is clearly
visible at night, with minimal degradation of your night vision.
Programmable Home Channel Function
The user may select, out of the dealer-programmed channel
list, one channel to be the "Home" channel, which may be
assigned to a "programmable" key for one-touch access to a
critically-important channel.
Direct Channel Recall
(#1 - #4)
Any or all of the programmable keys may be assigned as
direct-access one-touch keys for selecting important operating
Audio Pitch Control
When using the radio in a noisy environment, the Audio
Pitch Control adds aggressive equalization to the audio on
the incoming signal, allowing it to "punch" through the
ambient noise so the user will have a better chance of
understanding the incoming transmission.
ARTS™
(Auto-Range Transpond System)
The ARTS™ feature is a "handshake" system that uses
DCS coding to confirm that two ARTS™-equipped units are
within communication range. If an "out of range" condition
develops, an alarm will sound and the communications
center can instruct the field unit to move to a better location
(or assistance to the field unit can be dispatched).
SECURITY
BCLO/BTLO and TOT
To prevent interference to other users on busy channels, the
Busy Channel Lock-Out (BCLO) and Busy Tone Lock-Out
(BTLO) features prevent transmission by the portable if the
channel is occupied. And the Time-Out Timer (TOT) feature
will automatically cut of transmission if the programmed
maximum transmit time is exceeded.
Remote Radio Stun/Kill/Revive (5-Tone)
To prevent use of the portable by an unauthorized operator
(in case of theft, non-payment of subscription, etc.), a
dispatch center can send a 5-Tone command to "Stun"
(temporary disabling) or "Kill" (permanent disabling) a unit. If
the "Stun" command has been sent, another 5-Tone
"Revive" command may also be sent, re-enabling operation
of the portable.
Encryption
(Optional FVP-35 or FVP-36 required)
The FVP-35 (Rolling Code) and FVP-36 (Inversion)
Encryption Units provide security for your important public
safety and security communications.
