Internet Connection Feature
The FT-2900R can be used to access a "node" (repeater or base station) which is tied
into the Vertex Standard WIRES

network.
http://www.vxstd.com/en/wiresinfo-en/. This feature may also be used to access other
systems, as described below.

1.
Press the [%] key momentarily to activate the Internet Connection feature. The
"Int" notation will appear at the right of the frequency.
2.
Rotate the DIAL knob while pressing the [%] key to select the access number
(DTMF "0" ~ "9," "A," "B," "C," "D," "E(*)," "F(#))" corresponding to the WIRES・
node to which you wish to establish an Internet link (ask the node or repeater
owner/operator if you don't know the access number in the network). Now press
the PTT switch to exit from the selection mode.
3.
With the Internet Connection feature activated (as in step 1 above), the FT-2900M
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 local WIRES・node operating in the SRG mode.

To disable the Internet Connection feature, press the [%] key momentarily (the
"Int" notation will disappear from the display).
R.F. Says: If other users report that you always have a DTMF "beep" at the beginning
of each transmission, and you are not operating in conjunction with Internet access,
disable this function via step (4) above.
FRG ("Friendly Radio Group") mode
You may access other Internet Link Systems (including WIRES
that use a DTMF string for access.
Programming the FRG code
Load the DTMF tones which you wish to use for Internet-link access into a Internet
