FT-60R OPERATING MANUAL 47
In the Interval mode, when the FT-60R receives the CTCSS tone pair which is stored in
the Receiving Pager Code Memory (configured via Set Mode Item 31: PAG.CDR) on the
frequency which is stored in Memory Channel “000,” the radio will automatically trans-
mit a brief (0.5 second) beep tone every 2.5 seconds until the EAI timer expiration at the
power level stored in that memory channel; it is NOT necessary for the incapacitated per-
son to press the PTT switch. Furthermore, if your call sign is stored in the radio by Set
Mode Item 11: CW WRI, the radio will transmit your callsign on the air when this feature
is first engaged by the remote page, and every 10 minutes thereafter.
In the Continuous mode, when the FT-60R receives the CTCSS tone pair which is stored
in the Receiving Pager Code Memory (configured via Set Mode Item 31: PAG.CDR) on
the frequency which is stored in Memory Channel “000,” the radio will automatically
transmit continuously, until the EAI timer expiration, at the power level stored in that
memory channel; it is NOT necessary for the incapacitated person to press the PTT switch.
Furthermore, if your call sign is stored in the radio by Set Mode Item 11: CW WRI, the
radio will transmit your callsign on the air when this feature is first engaged by the remote
page, and every 10 minutes thereater.
The “callsign” ID can be changed to any desired sequence of characters, such as a name.
After sending the callsign or name, the radio will repeatedly transmit three tones for a user-
defined period of time (between 1 and 30 minutes). The callsign or name will be transmit-
ted every 10 minutes.
The Emergency Automatic ID (EAI) Feature requires that you (1) store the CTCSS Tone
Pair into the Receiving Pager Memory (see page 44 for procedure), and (2) store the desired
UHF coordination frequency into Memory Channel “000” (see page 28 for procedure).
