3 MDC 1200 SYSTEM OPERATION ■ MDC 1200 system operation The MDC 1200 signaling system enhances your transceiver's capabilities. It allows PTT ID, Selective Calling (SelCall), Call Alert, Radio Check, Stun, Revive, Status, Messaging and Emergency signaling. An additional feature of the MDC 1200 system included in Icom transceivers is called aliasing. Each transceiver on the system has a unique ID number. Aliasing allows the substitution of an alphanumeric name for this ID number. In transmit, you can use this alias to select a transceiver to call. In receive, the alias of the calling station is displayed instead of the ID. Please confirm that your dealer has set one of the programmable keys ([EMR], [Side1], [Side2], [Side3], [P0], [P1], [P2] and [P3] ) for MDC 1200 system operation. NOTE: While in the MDC 1200 system mode, BIIS 1200 and IDAS operations are disabled. ■ Receiving a call D Receiving a SelCall q When a SelCall is received: • Beeps sound. • " " appears. • " " blinks. • The calling station ID (or alias) and "SELCALL" are alternately displayed.
