Internet Connection Feature - Yaesu VX-2R Operating Manual

I C
NTERNET
The VX-2R can be used to access a "node" (repeater or base station) which is tied into the
Vertex Standard WIRES™ (Wide-Coverage Internet Repeater Enhancement System) net-
work, operating in the "SRG" (Sister Radio Group) mode. Details may be found at the
WIRES-II Web site: http://www.vxstd.com/en/wiresinfo-en/. This feature may also be used
to access other systems, as described below.
1. Press the [ ] key to activate the Internet Connection feature.
The " " icon will appear in the upper right corner of the dis-
play.
2. Rotate the DIAL knob, while pressing and holding in the [
key, to select the access number corresponding to the WIRES™
repeater to which you wish to establish an Internet link (ask
your repeater owner/operator if you don't know the access num-
bers in the network). Now release the [
selection mode.
3. With the Internet Connection feature activated (as in step 1 above), the VX-2R will
generate a brief (0.1 second) DTMF tone according to your selection in step 2. This
DTMF tone is sent at the beginning of every transmission to establish or maintain the
link to the remote WIRES™ repeater operating in the SRG mode.
4. To disable the Internet Connection feature, press the [
icon disappear from the display.
You may access other Internet Link Systems that use a DTMF string for access.
1. Load the DTMF tones which you wish to use for Internet-link access into a DTMF
Autodial memory resister. For purposes of this example, we will use "#123" as the
access code.

B. Rotate the DIAL knob to select Set Mode Item 17: DTMF.
C. Press the [ H/L ] key to enable adjustment of this Set Mode
Item.

E. Press the [ H/L ] key momentarily, then rotate the DIAL knob
one click clockwise to select Set Mode Item 18: DTMF S.

to select the DTMF Memory register into which you wish
to store the access code.
