Selective group paging device with exchangeable group ID

Abstract

A pager in which is written a paging ID shared among the remaining pagers of the same group, the pager including storage means for storing a character string; data comparing means for comparing the character string included in a received message with the data stored in the storage means; and operation execution means for commencing an operation on the basis of the result of the comparing operation performed by the data comparing means. The storage means is made interchangeable among pagers, or the data stored in the storage means can be rewritten. Categories of pagers in the same group may be readily established or changed through interchanging of the storage means or through rewriting of the data stored in the storage means.
