OPERATING THE TRANSCEIVER USING DIGITAL voIcE CAUTION: If RCSO-C is active in a data link and you enable voice mode or press PTT, wait for up to 25 sec before continuing with the digital voice transmission. The receiving station needs this time to regain digital voice synchronisation. NOTE: When transmitting clear or encrypted digital voice, listen for the Tx ready beep after you have released PTT before you hold PTT again. CAUTION: When transmitting with the AESZSé DV Encryptor, you should hold PTT, wait 2 sec, speak, wait 2 sec, then release PTT. lfyou have the Advanced Digital or AESZSG DV encryptor option installed, the transceiver will also go secure/clear when BlSEC is pressed.

The digital voice rate is shown in status area 1 ofthe screen. Use the available digital voice rate in the first instance, then if good IIF propagation conditions exist, a higher rate may be selected. The rates from which you can select depend on the options that you have installed. NOTE: Receiving DV stations, which have both MELPe and TWELP vocoders available by default, automatically switch to the appropriate rate and vocoder type when a signal is detected. NOTE: Ifyou change the digital voice rate frequently, you should consider assigning the Next Digital Voice Rate macro from Unassigned to a hot key. For detailed information on editing a macro, please see the Reference Manual [Codan part number 15-041 SX-EN Issue 1).

NOTE: When a data application is connected, an icon appears in the status bar of the channel screen (6). This modem can be used with ALE and Selcall call systems. Voice links may be established first, then a data exchange may be performed. The modem is controlled by the connected computer using the UUPlus’C/Codan ClIat© IlF data applications. Email is sent and received via your chosen email client, for example Microsoft® Office Outlook®. For information on using UUPlusQ/Codan Chat©, please see the documentation provided with the product. Typical 2.4 kbitls data station A typical data station comprises of: - a Sentry-ll transceiver with the 2.4 kbit/s Data Modem - a suitable 12 V or 24 V DC power supply - an antenna system - a PC running UUPlus’C/Codan Chat© or suitable terminal program - appropriate connecting cables NOTE: Software that operates on standard telephone modems should operate over HF via the AT commands. 7B SENTRv-Hm TRANSCEIVER OPERATOR GUIDE OPERAIING mE TRANSCEIVER DATA OPTIONS Figure 19: Sentry—H transceiver with 2.4 kbith Data Modem option and computer Ioww/sl/flflfl’ CAUTION: If VCOM is used over a USBrUSB connection between the Sentry-ll transceiver with the internal data modem interface and the computer running the UUPlus/Codan Chat applications, the 2.4 kbitls Modem Interface peripheral device must not be selected on the RFU GP port. CAUTION: The USBrUSB connection may be used with 2320 Handset in stations that are not exposed to excessive local MP interference.

MILISTANAG 26 Data NOTE: NOTE: MIL/STANAG 26 Data is enabled when you have the Standard Digital or Advanced Digital option installed. MIL/STANAG 26 Data is implemented by the RMSO module. MIL/STANAG 26 Data provides data communications. It may also provide optional ABS-256 digital encryption. It must be used in conjunction with the RCSO-C HF Email software. The RMSO module is capable of high-speed data transfer at speeds of up to 9600 bit/s using STANAG 4539 waveforms and up to 19200 bit/s when ISB option is enabled. This modem also supports MIL-STD-lXS-l lOA/B (including Appendix C and Appendix F), STANAG 4285, STANAG 4529, and STANAG 4415 waveforms. NOTE: NOTE: CAUTION: When a data application is connected, an icon appears in the status bar of the channel screen (w). The RMSO module can be upgraded from TPS System Programmer or from a USB stick. See Upgrading the transceiver via a USB stick on page 113 for more information. A permit from the Australian government is required if you want to upgrade the RMSO module with an export connolled version firmware package. which enables ABS-256 Encryption and Low Rate DV capabilities.
