Selective Call; Receiving; Transmitting - Kenwood TK-7160 Instruction Manual

Selective Call is enabled or disabled by your dealer. This function is similar to
Code Squelch {page 17}. The differences from Code Squelch are:
• You can send or receive Status codes containing up to 5 digits.
• Selective Call opens the squelch only when the transceiver receives a predetermined
DTMF code in the correct sequence (3-digit or 4-digit ID code — 1-digit Intermediate
code — Status code of up to 5 digits).
Your dealer may also activate Group Call for your transceiver. This is useful
when you want to send information to a number of units in a fleet. Ask your
dealer for details.
Note: Selective Call cannot be used on this transceiver if Code Squelch {page 17} or DTMF Number
Display {page 23} have been programmed.
