The 12-62 is a 136 - 174 MHz (VHF) or 427.5 - 475 MHz (UHF) 4 watt POCSAG paging transmitter with an in-built encoder. All parameters are programmable such as: frequency, power output, deviation, POCSAG or NRZ data transmission. The unit can be controlled via a USB port or an RS232 serial interface to provide numeric, alphanumeric and tone-only POCSAG encoding. This enables a user to call a pager (over 2,000,000 codes), append an appropriate priority level (1 of 4), and add a numeric or alphanumeric message.

The 12-62 supports multiple message queuing, and will queue up to eight 240 character messages, or as many smaller messages that will fit into the available memory buffer (up to 80). The 12-62 also supports full batching of serially queued and input messages, ensuring that messages are transmitted quickly and transmitter on time is minimised.  Pre-defined input messages are limited to a maximum length of 40 characters which may be configured using the Salcom programming software. Control via the USB or Serial port is achieved using ASCII character commands.

The unit supports 4 discrete inputs with a different pre-programmed message on high and/or low transition, plus voltage detection messages on the power input. The inputs can be configured for a number of options. Provision to transmit a message more than once and variable time between transmissions are catered for. The USB port or the RS232 serial port can be used to initiate POCSAG paging transmissions using the SALCOM propriety protocol.   Variations of the protocols  PET, SCOPE, BLICK, ASCOM, AUSTCO and Multitone are available - allowing full batching of messages in the same fashion as Salcom protocol. The USB and serial port can be used concurrently making it possible to connect a 12-36 telephone interface unit and still initiate paging transmissions via the USB port.

The 12-62 can be used with the 12-32 input module, which can be scaled to allow the 12-62 to support any number of inputs.

Over temperature cutout: If the transmitter operates for extended periods in a hot environment, a protective thermal cutout may operate to reduce the output power to a safe level. It will reset when the unit temperature has fallen to below 70 deg.

Transmitter Duty cycle: The transmitter duty cycle is rated at 100%.
