Antitheft Mode
Coaster pagers (such as the Commtech Wireless Patron Pager) have the ability to listen and
lock onto a special “heartbeat” known as an out-of-range message. To enable this feature to
work correctly, the transmitter is required to send out a heartbeat page at regular intervals that
the coaster pager can then lock onto. If the coaster pager misses a heartbeat page, it can warn
the user, by emitting a vibration or beep, telling them that they are out of range of the
transmitter.
™ NOTE: MAXPage sends out heartbeat pages as tone-only messages.
Antitheft Mode (a.k.a. out-of-range mode) is where this very useful function, can be setup.
Before this function will operate correctly, you will need to enable out-of-range mode on the
coaster pagers themselves and take note of the cap code used for this function.
1. To configure Antitheft Mode press from the Misc Menu. The following screen will
be shown. Press any key on the keypad to choose between Y or N. (Yes or No).
