The first successful commercial pager, known as the "beeper," was introduced in 1950 by the American telecommunications company Motorola. However, pagers became widely popular in the 1980s and 1990s as personal communication devices for individuals and professionals.

How does a pager work?

If someone has a pager, and you want to reach them, just dial in their number, and leave a number (numeric) message when told to do so, such as your full phone number (area code too) and he/she will get back to you. Soon after you hang up, their pager will ring or rumble, and they will look down and see your phone number and they can come to you, use a pay phone, or cell phone to call you whenever.


Where do you find the Cap code for a pager?

If you take a look at the label on the back of the pager, it is a 7 or 8 character code. It may start with a letter, but there are no letters embedded within the numbers. My pager lists it as the "FCC Number" The capcode is dependent upon the paging format. There are at least a half-dozen types of paging formats ranging from analog 2-tone capcodes to digital POCSAG that has 7 digits for capcodes. A common voice capcode format is 2-tone, which has 2 unique frequency tones that a pager will listen to. When it hears its 2 tones, it will page. Most of these capcodes are 4 characters .. like C123 or G456. The first character says what capcode plan is used, the second will tell you which columns the 3rd and 4th to look in. Its a series of table lookups if you have the capcode.If you have the 2 frequencies, those frequencies will resolve to several possible capcodes, but they all should cause the pager to alert when called.
