Programmable Data Encoding Polarity
, Supports the Encoding of POCSAG Messages for compatibility
with different pager models
Normal Polarity
Inverted Polarity
Default is “Normal”
Programmable Flow Control Signaling
, Accommodates a variety of methods of busy terminal signaling.
Choose either:
None
Hardware (CTS)
Software (XOFF/XON)
Alt Hardware (CTS gets asserted before message response)
Alt Software (XOFF is output before message response)
Default is “Hardware”
The WaveWare v
9E
“Paging Encoder” can operate simultaneously on four types of alert event activity, including:
Serial Port Paging Commands
received on a Single Serial Com Port
Ethernet Port Paging Commands
received on one or both Ethernet Port connections
Timer Triggered Delivery
of paging messages (Also called Timed Messaging)
The WaveWare v9E Paging Encoder can simultaneously receive data on the serial port and both Ethernet port
connections while encoding paging messages and delivering the paging messages through the attached radio transmitter.
The WaveWare v9E Paging Encoder can output messages up to 500 characters in length in WaveWare mode, or up to
240 characters paging control protocols.
The WaveWare v9E Paging Encoder can operate without a pager database, if you use one of the Direct Encoder
Control Methods available. If you use Traditional Paging System Control Systems that use Pager ID values that are
expected to be Translated into Pager Cap Codes, then you should use the Pager Database Configuration Functions.
Direct Encoder Control is available in the following ways (allowing a pager database to not need to be programmed into
the encoder):
Setting “Pager ID as Cap Code” Mode On, and running TAP or COMP2 Paging Control Protocol
Using Extended Pager ID Encoding method and running TAP Protocol, COMP2 Protocol, or SNPP Protocol

The WaveWare v9E Paging Encoder’s Pager Database is organized into the following Sections:
Pager
Families
Pager
Groups
Canned (Predefined) Messages
Encoder
Settings
Pager Families – v9E
“Pager Families” are Sequentially Defined Ranges of Pager IDs, where the Pagers in each Range have Common
attributes, such as Pager Type, Function Code, Data Rate, etc. Capacity of the “Pager Families” Database is 50 “Pager
Families” of up to 999 pagers per family, for well over 5,000 pagers.
Pager Groups – v9E
“Pager Groups” are Randomly Defined Lists of up to 20 pager IDs per Group, where a Group ID Triggers Output to the
List of Pagers in the Group. The Capacity of the “Pager Groups” Database is 10 pager groups of up to 20 pagers per
group.
