1 DMR CONVENTIONAL SYSTEM
DMR CONVENTIONAL SYSTEM
DMR is a generic name for a digital communication system protocol utilizing 4-level FSK. Using DMR, the transceiver can
initiate an individual call or group call for voice calls, text data communications or GPS data communications. Also,
connecting a transceiver to an external device (such as a PC) allows communication because the transceiver supports serial
command communication.
In a DMR Conventional system, digital signals can be transmitted and received on a DMR digital channel. Using a DMR ID
(Unit ID or Group ID) allows the various communications.

Transceivers can communicate directly between transceivers without using a repeater. (Refer to Communicating Without
Using a Repeater (Talk Around/ DMR Direct Mode).)
Or, the transceiver can communicate with another transceiver via a repeater. (Refer to Communicating via a Repeater
(Repeater Mode).)
