MIL-STD810 C/D/E

Built to meet or exceed the requirements of the U.S. MIL-STD810 C/D/E standards, the VX-800 is designed to survive under difficult operating conditions of shock, vibration, and driving rain. Cost-performance begins with durability, and the Mil-Spec toughness is your guarantee of its design quality.

SUPER RUGGED CONSTRUCTION

Housed inside a high-impact case, the diecast chassis ofthe VX-800 provides a solid, rugged foundation for the radio's circuitry. Built to survive in the real world of factory, construction site, or fleet use, the VX-800 will provide many years of reliable communications.

 

8-CHARACTER ALPHANUMERIC DISPLAY
Providing indication of either the channel number or an Alphanumeric Channel Label of up to 8 characters, the LCD display also provides convenient operation function icons to provide instant recognition of radio status.
3PROGRAMMABLE OPERATING FUNCTION KEYS
Customization of feature access is easily accomplished at the time of programming. Flexibility in assignment of feature sensures compatibility with existing system requirements.
CTCSS/ DCS ENCODE + DECODE

High-performance Encoder/Decoder circuits for both CTCSS and Digital Code Squelch are provided, for access to tone/code controlled systems.
DCS is ideal for crowded RF environments, providing superior immunity from false opening of squelch.

 

DTMF ANI

The VX-800 includes a DTMF Automatic Number Identifier (ANI) circuit, which will respond to an incoming ANI burst for selective paging of an individual portable.

 

5-TONE SIGNALLING SYSTEM

The radio has built in capability to encode
and decode 5, 6 or 7 tone selective calling
codes in 11 different tone formats.
Features such as Stun/kill/revive and
emergency modes are supported.

 

DUAL 2-TONE DECODE

This built in feature allows you to decode up to two, 2-tone pairs per channel. These can be used for two individual pager calls, or one for Individual and
one for Group call.

 

VERSATILE SCANNING FEATURES

The high-speed scanning capability of the VX-800 includes "All-Channel" scanning, plus Dual Watchand Priority Channel capability. And with "Follow-Me" scanning, a designated channel may be watched during scanning of other channels.

 

 
ARTS™ (Auto Range Transponding System)

Included in the VX-160 is Vertex Standard's exclusive ARTS™ feature,
which can be critically important in search-and-rescue applications. ARTS™ provides a "hand-shake" with other ARTS™-equipped transceivers, and the display indicates if an "Out of Range" condition exists. The base station can then alert the field unit to move to a better location.

 

TX/RX BATTERY SAVER CIRCUIT

To maximize battery life, the VX-800 includes both transmit-and receive- mode battery savers. On transmit, the portable will reduce power when the incoming signal is very strong. On receive, the radio will put itself into a pulsing "sleep" mode, periodically checking for channel activity.

 

PCPROGRAMMING

The channel and feature configurations are easily programmed in minutes by the dealer, using the optional CT-42A Programming Cable and CE44 Programming Software.

 

RADIO TO RADIO CLONE FEATURE

For quick programming of VX-80 radios for fleet use, the "Clone" feature allows copying of all channel and other configuration data from one VX-800 to another, using the optional CT-72 Cloning Cable.

 

500mW AUDIO OUTPUT

Ideal for reception in noisy environments, the VX-800's high-powered audio is coupled to a large internal speaker, assuring solid copy throughout difficult construction site or field operations.

 

BCLO,BTLO, AND TOT
To facilitate efficient channel management, the VX-800 provides Busy Channel Lock-Out (BCLO) and Busy Tone Lock-Out (BTLO) features. What's more, the transmitter's Time-Out Timer (TOT) function prevents a "stuckmicrophone" condition from jamming a channel for an extended period of time.
