ANUAL
The FT-2800M can be used to access an Internet link on a repeater which is equipped for
operation using the Vertex Standard WIRES
TM
(Wide-Coverage Internet Repeater Enhance-
ment System) Internet linking system.
1. Press the [ ] key to activate the Internet Connection feature. The “int” icon will appear
in the memory channel field.
2. Rotate the DIAL, while pressing and holding in the
[ ] key, to select the access number correspond-
ing to the WIRES TM repeater to which you wish to
establish an Internet link (ask your repeater owner/operator if you don’t know the access
numbers in the network).
3. With the Internet Connection feature activated (as in step 1 above), the FT-2800M will
generate a brief (0.2 second) DTMF tone according to your selection in step 2. This
DTMF tone is sent at the beginning of every transmission to establish or maintain the
link to the remote WIRES
TM repeater, while operating in the “SRG” (“Sister Repeater
Group”) mode.
4. To disable the Internet Connection feature, press the [ ] key again.

mation) into the desired DTMF Memory channel.
