As the AlphaPoc receivers don't have a predefined RIC, so the RIC will be assigned by the DAPNET support team, normally based on the existing CCS7 / DMR ID system. The POCSAG addresses are limited to 2^21 = 2097152, so IDs greater than the limit have to be shortened. It is not necessary to have a CCS7 / DMR ID to register a reciever on DAPNET. | As the AlphaPoc receivers don't have a predefined RIC, so the RIC will be assigned by the DAPNET support team, normally based on the existing CCS7 / DMR ID system.

- | The reception of the rubrics originally designed for [[skyperdescription|Skyper]] described [[rubricactivationskyper|here]] is not as convinient on the Alphapoc as on the Skyper. But there is a workaround: The rubrics are transmitted in both Skyper format and as personal messages. The RIC used for the rubrics for this purpose is 1000 + <RUBIC Number>. So rubric number 42 is RIC 1042. You can assign up to 8 POCSAG addresses (RICs), on your Alphapoc that it listen to. It is convinient to programm you personal RIC and besides the RIC of up to 7 rubrics. So you can still receive the rubics content on the Alphapoc. A mayor drawback is, that the Alphapoc will not distinguish between thoses and really personal messages, filling up your display quite fast. | + | The reception of the rubrics originally designed for [[skyperdescription|Skyper]] described [[rubricactivationskyper|here]] is not as convinient on the Alphapoc as on the Skyper.

The symbol is not working in the current firmware (1.7x), so you have to use an older programming software 1.01 (as the firmware is transferred via software). | The symbol is not working in the current firmware (1.7x), so you have to use an older programming software 1.01 (as the firmware is transferred via software). | ||

+ | ===== Handling RICs ===== | ||
+ | |||
+ | As the alphapoc pager doesn’t support rubrics (like the skyper pager), the data is transmitted via a RIC address, e.g. for weather RIC 1080. | ||
+ | |||
+ | The messages are handled like private messages and so they fill up the memory/display. A possible solution: If you change the RIC type from „private“ to „group“, the latest message will be kept and the other (same) messages will be overwritten. | ||
+ | |||
+ | To change the type of a RIC, you have to use the programming software. Please be aware, that only the RIC addresses 5 to 8 can be changed from „private“ to „group“. | ||

+ | Group messages have also another symbol on the pager display, see below: | ||
+ | |||
+ | {{ :alphapoc:alphapoc:alphapoc-groupmsg.jpg?400 |}} | ||
+ | |||
+ | You can use this opportunity to change the tone for the RIC to „disable“, if you prefer no sound on receiving rubric messages. | ||

+ | If the battery is empty, the "empty battery" icon appears, an audio alert beeps and **no further messages** will be received. | ||
