<p>A two-way radio communications system includes a battery-operated portable unit (12) and a base unit (11) having a receptacle (17) for receiving the portable unit when the portable unit is not in use. A security circuit (51, 52) in each unit allows communication with other units only upon the reception of an address code corresponding to an address code stored in the unit. When the portable unit is seated in the base unit receptacle, the batteries (38) of the portable unit are recharged by current supplied by the base unit. At the same time, the address code of the base unit is entered into the portable unit by encoding circuitry (55, 58, 62, 54) which modulates the battery charging current in accordance with the address code. Circuitry (44) within the portable unit demodulates the charging current to recover the address code for storage in the security circuit of the portable unit. The invention can also be used in systems where data other than address codes must be sent to a unit being charged.</p> |
