CONFIGURATION OF ASSIGNED FRAMES AND PAGER
COLLAPSE
(ID = 20H TO 27H)
The assigned frame and collapse value determine the
frames in which the decoding device typically looks for
messages (other system factors can cause the decoding
device to look in other frames in addition to the typical
frames).
The PCD5013 must be configured explicitly to receive all
required frames by setting the associated assigned
frame (AF) bits. For each enabled CAPCODE these are
the base frame and the associated frames implied by the
pager collapse value. For example if the PCD5013 has
one enabled address and it is assigned to base frame 3
with a collapse value of 4, the AF bits for
frames 3, 19, 35, 51, 67, 83, 99 and 115 should be set
and the AF bits for all other frames should be cleared.
When the PCD5013 is configured for manual collapse
mode by setting the MCM bit in the Roaming Control
Packet, the PCD5013 does not apply the received system
collapse to the AF bits. The host should set the AF bits for
all frames that should be decoded on all channels.
For example, if frames 0 and 64 should be decoded on one
channel and frames 4, 36, 68, and 100 should be decoded
on another channel, all six of the corresponding AF bits
should be set. The host can then change the receiver’s
carrier frequency after the PCD5013 decodes frames 0,
36, 64, and 100.
There are 8 frame assignment packets each capable of
assigning a range of 16 consecutive frame numbers.
f: frame range, see Table 38 for location in the frame
assignment packet and Table 36 for the AFs and values.
The value determines which 16 frames out of a range
of 128 correspond to the 16 AF bits in the packet. At least
one of these bits must have been set when the PCD5013
is turned on by setting the ON bit in the control packet.
Value after reset = 0.
AF: assigned frame (Table 38). If a bit is set, the PCD5013
decodes the associated FLEX
frame and scans its
contents for enabled addresses. Value after reset = 0.
8.6.8
CONFIGURATION OF ASSIGNED PHASE
The assigned phase is required only for single-phase
devices. It determines the phase (A, B, C, or D) in which
the messages are received.
For details of phase calculation see Section 8.6.5.
For details of programming the assigned phase
see Section 8.4.7.

OPERATOR MESSAGING ADDRESS ENABLE PACKET
(ID = 04H)
The operator messaging address enable packet is used to
enable and disable the built-in FLEX
operator messaging
addresses. Enabling and disabling operator messaging
addresses does not affect on which frames the decoder IC
decodes. To ensure that the correct frames are decoded,
the host must modify the FF bits in the Control Packet or
the AF bits in the Frame Assignment Packets.
OAE: operator messaging address enable (Table 37).
When a bit is set, the corresponding operator messaging
address is enabled. When it is cleared, the corresponding
operator messaging address is disabled. OAE0 to OAE15
corresponds to the hexadecimal operator messaging
address values of 1F7810 through to 1F781F
respectively. Value after reset = 0.
