Exclusive Auto-Range Transpond System - ARTSTM
Only Vertex Standard radios are designed to inform you when you and another ARTSTM-equipped station are within communication range. If out of range for more than 2 minutes, your radio senses no signal has been received and beeps to alert you. The base station can then alert the field unit to move back in range. A great solution to keep your workers coordinated.
3-Year Factory Warranty - The Vertex Standard Difference
