| MIL-STD810 C/D/E | Builtto meet or exceed the requirements of the U.S. MIL-STD810 C/D/E standards, the VX-160 is designed to surviveunder difficult operating conditions of shock, vibration,and driving rain. Cost-performance begins with durability,and the Mil-Spec toughness of the VX-160 is your guaranteeor its design quality.

| | SUPERRUGGED CONSTRUCTION | Housedinside a high-impact case, the diecast chassis ofthe VX-160 provides a solid, rugged foundation forthe VX-160's circuitry. Built to survive in the realworld of factory, construction site, or fleet use,the VX-160 will provide many years of reliable communications. | | 8-CHARACTERALPHANUMERIC DISPLAY | Providingindication of either the channel number or an AlphanumericChannel Label of up to 8 characters, the LCD displayalso providesconvenient operation function icons to provide instantrecognition of radio status.
| | 3PROGRAMMABLE OPERATING FUNCTION KEYS | Customizationof feature access is easily accomplished at the timeof programming. Flexibility in assignment of featuresensures compatibility with existing system requirements.
| | CTCSS/ DCS ENCODE + DECODE | High-performanceEncoder/Decoder circuits for both CTCSS and DigitalCode Squelch are provided, for access to tone/codecontrolled systems. DCS is ideal for crowded RF environments, providingsuperior immunity from false opening of squelch. | | DTMFANI | TheVX-160 includes a DTMF Automatic Number Identifier(ANI) circuit, which will respond to an incoming ANIburst for selective paging of an individual portable. | | 5-TONESIGNALLING SYSTEM | Theradio 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. | | DUAL2-TONE DECODE | Thisbuilt in feature allows you to decode up to two, 2-tonepairs per channel. These can be used for two individual pager calls,or one for Individual and one for Group call. | | VERSATILESCANNING FEATURES | Thehigh-speed scanning capability of the VX-160 includes"All-Channel" scanning, plus Dual Watchand Priority Channel capability. And with "Follow-Me"scanning, a designated channel may be watched duringscanning of other channels. |
| | | ARTS(Auto Range Transponding System) | includedin ine VX-160 is Vertex Standard's exclusive ARTSfeature, which can be critically important in search-and-rescueapplications. ARTS provides a "hand-shake"with other ARTS-equipped transceivers, and thedisplay indicates if an "Out of Range" conditionexists. The base station can then alert the fieldunit to move to a better location.
 | | TX/RXBATTERY SAVER CIRCUIT | Tomaximize battery life, the VX-160 includes both transmit-and receive- mode battery savers. On transmit, the portable willreduce power when the incoming signal is very strong. On receive, the radiowill put itself into a pulsing "sleep" mode, periodically checkingfor channel activity. | | PCPROGRAMMING | Thechannel and feature configurations are easily programmedin minutes by the dealer, using the optional CT-42A ProgrammingCable and CE44 Programming Software. | | RADIOTO RADIO CLONE FEATURE | Forquick programming of VX-160 radios for fleet use,the "Clone" feature allows copying of all channel and other configurationdata from one VX-160 to another, using the optional CT-27 Cloning Cable. | | 500mW AUDIO OUTPUT | Idealfor reception in noisy environments, the VX-160'shigh-powered audio is coupled to a large internal speaker, assuring solidcopy throughout difficult construction site or field operations. | | BCLO,BTLO, AND TOT | | Tofacilitate efficient channel management, the VX-160provides Busy Channel Lock-Out (BCLO) and Busy ToneLock-Out (BTLO) features. What's more, the transmitter'sTime-Out Timer (TOT) function prevents a "stuckmicrophone" condition from jamming a channel foran extended period of time. |
