Configuration using KPG-101D• Configuring the Fleet (Refer to FPRG 6.12.1General 1 Tab - Fleet (Own).)• Configuring the ID (Refer to FPRG 6.12.1 General1 Tab - ID (Own).)20.7.2 Unit ID Encode BlockThe Unit ID Encode Block is the FleetSync ID range usedto make a call.It is possible to limit the FleetSync ID range by usingKPG-101D. The FleetSync ID configured in the ID Listcan be used even if the ID is outside the Unit ID EncodeBlock range.If Unit ID Encode Block is not configured; the transceivercan call all FleetSync IDs.The following FleetSync IDs can be called with Unit IDEncode Block.Table 20-14 Available FleetSync ID Configuration using KPG-101D• Configuring the Unit ID Encode Block (Refer toFPRG 6.12.1 General 1 Tab - Unit ID EncodeBlock.)20.7.3 FleetSync Baud RateFleetSync Baud Rate is the data baud rate for the MSKmodem.The FleetSync Baud Rate configuration of both thetransmitting and receiving parties must be the same.FleetSync Baud Rate can be configured by using KPG-101D. Below is a list of available baud rates.Table 20-15 Available FleetSync Baud Rates Configuration using KPG-101D• Configuring the FleetSync Baud Rate (Refer toFPRG 6.12.1 General 1 Tab - FleetSync BaudRate.)20.7.4 Message Display TypeMessage Display Type can be used to configure thedisplay when receiving a Status Message or ShortMessage.Message Display Type can be configured by using KPG-101D.

Themessage is scrolled on the display ifthe message is longer than 9characters.Alternate“Status Message/ Short Message”appears for 3 seconds and Selcall IDappears for 2 seconds alternatelywhen the transceiver receives a call.
