The Barrett 2050 is designed using the latest technotogy enabling a physically small package with a lull teature complement. Designed to operate in the most arduous environments, as encountered In off road vehicles, vessels and aircrait, the Barrett 2050 will provide many years of efficient and trouble tree service. The Barrett 2050 supports ieatures such as selective call (Selcall). direct dial telephone oonnection to base stations titted with telephone interconnect systems (Telcall), GPS location, ALE (Automatic Link Establishment), frequency hopping, data transmission and remote diagnose-s. These ieatures make the Barrett 2050 HF transoe'wer one oi the most eoonomicai and versau'le HF transceiver available today. The Barrett 2050 transceiver, has catered tor the increased use of HF data transmission ior Internet email acoess and point to point data applications, by providing a comprehensive data modem interiace port, high speed transmit to receive switching, a high stability itequency standard and an ett'lcient oooling system motion. The Barren 2050 transceiver can be operated in either a local (desktop) configuration tor base station applications or, with the addition of an inexpensive mobile pack, In a remote oontrol (tntnk mount) configuration ior mobile applications. When ooupled with the 2040 manpack adaptor the 2050 becomes a full specifimtion military/civilian manpack. Operating irom 12 Volt (13.8 VDC) DC supplies, the transmitter is rated at 125 watt PEP in voice mode and is protected irom overavoltage or reverse voltage application. All 500 channels are available to be field or workshop programmable. Auxiliary ieatures such as sales", teicaII. scanning, mute status, alarm system etc. an be individually enabled or disabled ior every channel as required to suit your operation. Teamed with other matching Barrett 2000 series products which include antennas, power supplies, vehicle tracking packages and HF modems, the Barrett 2050 HF transceiver becomes a poweriul tool, providing solufions to many long distance communication requirements. 100i237 ==== Operation User controls 2050 transcelver from panel descrlptlon 7A {H mm! 013W mm Toflfifilfikuz Privaie %/ 0 Power onlofi button 9 lRport 0 Alert button Power onion button The Barrett 2050 ltansoeivsr is turned on by pressing the green power button, The BARR T 2050 HF SSB TRANSCEIVER -&m “m Emma lransoelver is turned on by again pressan the green power button.

Each station in an HF network Is assigned an individual four or six digit ID (Idenlification) and can be called using this ID, selectlve Call “Telcall” Telcall uses this digiwl selective call system to transport a telephone numberfrom a station on an HF network to a base station equipped with a telephone interconnect unit to initiate phone calls onto the Intemaiional telephone network. Note:- For Selcall and Telcall iunotlons to operate the transceiver must be fitted with the selcall or telcall option and the channels enabled (or selcali operation. It Automatic Link establishment (ALE) is in use refer to the ALE section for operation details. Special notes when uslng OEM 1 selective call protocol All 8 dlglt OEM 1 protocol calls will only be decoded by other Barrett transceivers fitted with OEM 1 seloall protocol or other manufacturers transceivers using encryption.

When disabled the data is sent as plain text. See “OEM Pagecall Key' in the protected menu “Selcall settings“ seotldn, to switch the privacy key “On“ or 'or when sending Pagecalls. Emergency GPS data calls, both 4 a 6 digit. are automatically sent as plain text. Entering station lD’s and using the address and telephone books Ssloall and Telcall iunotions described in this section require station 10's or telephone numbers to be entered when making a call. They make use oi convenient address and telephone books to allow frequently used Station lD's. station names and telephone numbers to be easily entered.

"Beacon call" allows the operator to determine the sig’tal quality between their station and a station they want to call on a particular channel. but without actually alerting the station they are doing so. When a Beacon call is sent to another station, It the channel being used is “open", the remote stafion sends back a distlnctive 4 tone revertive signal, The operator can judge the quality at the channel tor communicafions purposes by the strength and clarity of this if tincfive tone. Using Beacon calls on several available channels will determine which channel is best ta use subsequent Selcalls or Telcalls (Note:- both stations must be programmed tor Selcall or Telcall operation) Sandan a beacon call select the channel you think will be best to use (Refer to section Overview of HF operation) ‘llslen tor traffic on that wannel, if no traffic is heard then continued then press the key select “Beacon Call" with the scroll keys _—Send Call—__..

It is particularly usetul as the nature or HP signal propagation means that not all channels are available tor communications at one time. For instance, a station calling a station that is in scanning can send a ”Beacon all“ on any channel knowing the station it is calling Is monitoring all its available channels. A response from the scanning station will only Occur on channels that are “open" tor communication. Stations in scan can also monitor channels tor voice activity or signals received that has a signal strength over a preset level. Selcall Scan When a selcall signal Is detected, and the channel has selcali enabled, no matter which mute type is selected the transoeiver will stop scanning and decode the selcall. The transceiver will only stop scanning when a selcall is detected. Signal strength scan (SSL scan) ii the signal strength mute (squelch) is active and a signal with a level greater than the pre-set threshold is received the scan will halt. Scan will remain halted while the signal level stays above the preset threshold. Once the signal decreases below the predset threshold level, tor a period greater than the scan dwell period, scanning will resume. Voice (syllablcl scan it the audio mute (squelch) is active and is opened scanning wIII halt. Scanning will remain halted whlle the audio mute is open. Once the mute closes, for a period greater than the scan awell period, scanning will resume.
