Abstract

A point-to-point communications device (SS) which is capable of generating melodic alerts, each alert being generated using numeric data in a received message. The device includes a controller (36) programmed with an algorithm for dividing the digits in a decoded message into one or two digit fields. One-digit fields are used respectively to determine the tempo (t) and the number of times (p) a sequence of notes is played and two-digit fields are used to select notes.
