DTMF AUTODIALER OPERATION

Nine DTMF Autodialer memories are available on the FT-2800M. These DTMF Autodialer memories can store up to 16 digits of a telephone number for repeater autopatch or other use.

To load DTMF Autodialer memories, use the following procedure:

1.Press and hold in the [MHz(SET)] key for one second, then rotate the DIAL knob to select “10 DT MEM.”

2.Press the [MHz(SET)] key, then rotate the DIAL knob to select the DTMF Autodialer memory channel number into which you wish store a telephone number (“DTMF-1 to DTMF-9”).

3.Press the [D/MR(MW)] key momentarily, then rotate the DIAL knob to select the first digit of the telephone number you wish to store.

4.When you have selected the correct digit, press the [REV(DW)] key momentarily. Now, rotate the DIAL knob to select the second of 16 available numbers in the current DTMF Autodialer memory register.

5.Repeat this procedure for each digit in the telephone number. If you a mistake, press the microphone’s [DWN] key to move back to the first digit, then re-enter the correct num- ber.

6.When entry of all digits is complete, press the [MHz(SET)] key.

7.If you wish to store another DTMF string, repeat steps 2 through 6 above.

8.Press and hold in the [MHz(SET)] key for one second to save the new setting and exit to normal operation.

To transmit the memorized telephone number, use the following procedure:

1.Press and hold in the [MHz(SET)] key for one second, then rotate the DIAL knob to select “08 DTMF.”

2.Press the [MHz(SET)] key, then rotate the DIAL knob to set the DTMF Autodialer memory function to the “ON” position (the “” icon will appear).

3.Press and hold in the [MHz(SET)] key for one second to save the new setting and exit to normal operation.

4.In the Autodialer mode, which you just engaged, first press the PTT switch, then press the microphone’s numeric key ([1] through [9]) corresponding to the DTMF memory string you wish to send. Once the string begins, you may release the PTT switch, as the transmitter will be held “on the air” until the DTMF string is completed.

To disable the Autodialer function mode, select “OFF” in step 2 above.
