Paging System Operation

Your WaveWare v9E Paging System includes a UHF Transceiver and an onboard Single RS-232 Serial Com Port and
an Ethernet interface for communications, and encodes paging messages for RF transmission using the industry standard

POCSAG

paging protocol. The Programmable RS-232 communications allow you to interface the encoder to a PC or to

other devices and systems that use RS-232 serial communications (Host Devices). The programmable Ethernet
communications allows the paging encoder to monitor up to two simultaneous Ethernet connections, with independent
paging control protocols and independent Ethernet port values.

Amplification Kits are also available when more than 5 watts of power is required to obtain better coverage of a site.

The types of paging receivers that are compatible with your WaveWare v9E Paging Encoder include:
