| 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. |
