Are you asking about how to program the radio for two tone paging in the form of an instructional video? I would say something like that does not exist but I could be wrong. But with Youtube these days anything kind of goes I guess.

It's really not a hard thing to do. You need to know your department's tone frequencies and with that knowledge you create a Quick Call II personality under the signaling part of the CPS software for the 1250. I cheated on this kind of and took the info from an older model radio that had Quick Call II programmed where it had the tone frequencies and format put in so I just put in the info into the new radio.

Maybe you knew this already and the signaling is not working for you for some reason??

No. Im wanting what I guess you could call the (ringtones). When the radio receives the two tone page it goes off. Minitor pagers have a beeping ring tone. I just want to know what all the ringtones are.

Ok - I think I got what you are asking for and I do see that you can choose various alert tones/beeps for call alert or sel cal alerts (the tone tags as they call them in the software). I have them set as standard for both and it works fine for me but I did not know you could choose other alerts - you always learn something new. Is this what you are asking about?

And if that is correct, you are looking for what those alerts sound like before programming them? I have no idea how to get that other than programming the alerts, generating the tones, and hearing what sounds come out.

Maybe others have those alert sounds - I don't know.

If you have the radio's Audio/Tones menu enabled and accessible, you can just scroll through and listen to and change the tones as often as makes you happy.
