radio Access Number (rAN)

RAN is a signaling system designed for digital radio

communications.

When a channel is set up with a RAN, squelch will only

open when a call containing a matching RAN is received.

If a call containing a different RAN is made on the same

channel you are using, you will not hear the call. This

allows you to ignore (not hear) calls from other parties who

are using the same channel.

Optional Signaling

Your dealer may also program several types of optional

signaling for your transceiver channels.

2-tone Signaling: 2-tone Signaling opens the squelch only

when your transceiver receives a call containing matching 2

tones (available only for NX-220/ NX-320/ NX-322).

DTMF Signaling: DTMF Signaling opens the squelch only

when the transceiver receives a call containing a matching

DTMF code.

FleetSync Signaling: Refer to “SELCALL (SELECTIVE

CALLING)” on page 17.

NXDN ID Signaling: NXDN ID is an optional signaling

system available only for digital communications.

vOICE OPErATED TrANSMISSION (vOX)

VOX can be activated or deactivated by your dealer. VOX

operation allows you to transmit hands-free.

Note: To operate VOX, you must use an optional headset.
