the message being stored in the internal memory of the microcomputer 4 in the state that the message is not received therefore the state display driver 10 represents various states of the pager receiver under the control of the microcomputer 4 wherein a lamp 102 is driven during display of the message on the lcd 8 to thereby brighten the message display even in case where it is difficult to read the message as in the night and maintains the 34 off 34 state for a period of the calling information the led 103 is driven when receiving the message to indicate visually the 34 alert 34 state the led being driven both in the normal mode and in the silent mode also a motor 104 functions to vibrate the pager receiver when receiving the message in the silent mode to thereby make a user sense it in the usual pager receiver which uses the pocsag code and operates as described above the local specific cap codes are given which are the decimal numbers of 7 digits also two million cap codes can be entered therein with a cap code the address code words on the pocsag codes as in fig2 are produced the address codeword being 32 bits and being constituted by 1 bit for the identification of the address codeword 18 bits for the address data the 2 bits of function data the parity data of 10 bits and the even parity of 1 bit the address data.
