Radio Shack HTX-242 owner manual Using Dtmf and Subaudible Tones, Storing a Dtmf Sequence

USING DTMF AND SUBAUDIBLE TONES

Your HTX-242 has 10 DTMF (Dual-Tone, Multiple Frequency— another name for touch tones) memories where you can store DTMF sequences. DTMF Memory 0 can hold a 7-digit DTMF paging sequence your HTX-242 must receive for DTMF paging. DTMF Memories 1-10 each hold 15 digits you can quickly transmit.

Storing a DTMF Sequence

1.Hold down F for at least 1 second. FUNC flashes.

2.Press DTMF. The HTX-242 displays the sequence stored in the currently selected memory.

3.Rotate TUNE, or press UP or DOWN on the microphone, to select one of the 10 transmit DTMF memories (1–10) or the receive DTMF memory (0).

Note: td appears with transmit DTMF Memories 1-10, and rd appears with receive DTMF Memory 0.

4.Press SHIFT. Then use the keypad to enter the sequence you want to store.

Note: DTMF Memories 1–10 hold 15 digits each. DTMF Memory 0 holds 7 digits.

5.Repeat Steps 3 and 4 to store more DTMF sequences, or press DTMF or PTT to save all sequences and return to nor- mal operation.

!Note: To clear a DTMF sequence, repeat these steps but do not enter a frequency in Step 4 after you press SHIFT.

Transmitting a DTMF Sequence

1.Hold F for at least 1 second. FUNC flashes.

2.Rotate TUNE, or press UP or DOWN on the microphone, to select the DTMF memory that contains the sequence you want to transmit.

3.Press the push-to-talk button. While holding down PTT, press DTMF. The HTX-242 transmits the stored sequence.

!Note: If the DTMF auto send feature is turned on, the HTX-242 transmits the tones in the selected DTMF memory every time you press PTT.
