 2 INTRODUCTION  Figure 2-1:  Desktop Station Front Panel with VU Meter/Clock The M/A-COM® M7100IP Desktop Station is shown in Figure 2-1 This  Station combines the flexibility of a Local Control Station with a Remote Control Station in one desktop package. The M7100IP Wall Mount Station is designed specifically for Remote Control applications with no user accessible controls.  The Wall Mount Station housing is equipped with a key lock to prevent unauthorized entry. 2.1 STANDARD FEATURES The basic Desktop Station comes equipped with the Standard Control Panel as shown in Figure 2-2.  The Standard Control Panel is equipped with a single Power LED to indicate the status of the power being supplied to the station.  This indicator is present on all configurations.    Figure 2-2:  Standard Control Panel 5
2.2 OPTIONS The standard Desktop Station can be configured in several different ways including Remote/Intercom controls, and/or VU (Volume Unit) Meter/Clock display. 2.2.1 Remote/Intercom Option Desktop Stations equipped with the Remote/Intercom option (see Figure 2-3) permits the use of Remote Controllers.  Local and Remote Station control is provided for station functions such as Transmit, Receive and Intercom Audio, PTT (Press-To-Talk) Control, and Channel Guard Monitor.  Figure 2-3:  Remote/Intercom Option Control Panel 2.2.2  VU Meter/Clock Option The VU Meter/Clock option provides transmit and receive audio level display, together with a twelve/twenty-four hour digital clock display (see Figure 2-4).  Figure 2-4:  VU/Clock Option Control Panel 6
 2.2.3  Remote/Intercom/VU Meter/Clock Option Desktop Stations with the Remote/Intercom/VU Meter/Clock option have the full compliment of controls described in sections 2.2.1 and 2.2.2 (see Figure 2-5).  Figure 2-5:  Remote/Intercom/VU Meter/Clock Option Control Panel 2.2.4  Wall Mount Station Control Panel Wall Mount Stations include a basic control panel located inside the housing (see Figure 2-6).  The Wall Mount control panel includes a volume control, remote ON/OFF switch, intercom ON/OFF switch, microphone jack, power indicator lamp, and speaker ON/OFF switch.  The speaker is unique only to the Wall Mount Station and is typically turned ON only during servicing.  All other features operate in the same manner as the Desktop Station.  Figure 2-6:  Wall Mount Station Control Panel 7
3  CONTROLS AND INDICATORS 3.1 VOLUME CONTROL The radio volume control is used for Desktop Stations with the Standard Control Panel (Non-Remote Control Stations).  The volume control on the radio must be variable only for the Local Control Stations. Desktop Stations equipped with the optional Remote Control Panel are equipped with a separate volume control located on the Station Control Panel.  This knob controls the level of audio fed to the Station speaker as determined by the Intercom and Remote Switch positions. 3.2 REMOTE/INTERCOM SWITCHES These switches control the audio paths for stations equipped with one of several Remote Control options.  Audio control is accomplished between remote and local microphones, the radio, and remote and local speakers.  The Remote switch allows for remote control of the radio.  The Intercom switch allows communication between the Desktop Station and a Remote Controller. 3.3  VU METER AND CLOCK The VU Meter displays, in bar graph format, transmit/receive audio levels.  The time is displayed in an “Hours: Minutes” format. NOTE An illuminated indicator in the lower right corner of the clock display indicates that the internal battery of the VU Meter/Clock is defective or the VU Meter calibration data has been lost.  Contact a service technician to correct the problem. 3.4 DESK MICROPHONE The desk microphone is equipped with the traditional PTT (Push-to-Talk) Transmit button, and a Monitor button.  In configurations using Channel Guard, the Microphone Monitor button provides the operator the ability to listen for other users on the selected channel before transmitting.  This helps to prevent unnecessary interference to other users. On stations equipped with the Local/Remote option, the functionality of the microphone PTT button is determined by the Local/Remote switch settings (see Section 4.2). 8
 4 STATION OPERATION 4.1 BASIC STATION Turn on the main ON/OFF power switch located on the rear of the Station housing.  The front panel LED illuminates, indicating that the power supply to the cooling fan is on.  Fan operation is temperature controlled.   4.2 REMOTE/INTERCOM These switches control the audio paths between remote and local microphones, the radio, and remote and local speakers.  There are four possible switch configurations. REMOTE INTERCOMOFFONMOFFON1With this switch configuration, intercom communication is possible between the Desktop Station and the Remote Controller.  The Remote Controller can also key the radio transmitter and hear the receiver's audio output. When the Desktop Mic is keyed, there is no connection to the radio transmitter.  If the radio receiver is squelched, the Remote hears the audio as an intercom conversation.  Should the radio receiver be unsquelched, receiver audio is heard on both the Desktop speaker and the Remote speaker, with priority over the intercom message from the Desktop Mic to the Remote speaker. The audio from the Remote Mic is heard on the Desktop speaker.  The Remote’s Intercom switch must be OFF to key the Station's radio transmitter. The audio from the unsquelched radio receiver is heard on both the Station speaker and the Remote speaker. Intercom messages from the Remote are muted when radio messages are being received or when the Desktop Station operator is using the Desktop Mic.  9
REMOTE INTERCOM2 This configuration offers intercom service only.  Neither the Desktop nor the Remote Mics can key the radio transmitter.  The radio receiver's audio can be heard on the Station speaker, but not on the Remote speaker. A message from the Desktop Mic is heard on the Remote speaker. An intercom message from the Remote Mic can be heard on the Desktop speaker, but only if the Desktop Mic is not active.  The Desktop Mic has priority over the Remote Mic in the intercom connection. REMOTE INTERCOM3 This configuration is for remote control of the radio, without an intercom connection.  When the Desktop Mic is keyed, the radio transmitter is keyed and the Remote Controller is able to monitor the transmission. If only the Remote Mic is keyed, and not the Desktop Mic, then the Remote Mic is connected to the radio transmitter.  In addition, the Remote Mic is connected to the Desktop speaker if the radio receiver is squelched and the Desktop Mic is not keyed (so that the "Desktop Mic Audio to Line Path" is inactive). The radio receiver audio is connected to the Remote speaker if the receiver is unsquelched.  The PA output from the receiver is unconditionally connected to the Desktop speaker, but is subject to the radio's internal squelch. REMOTE INTERCOMOFFONMOFFON4 This configuration is used when operating the Desktop Station as a radio.  If the Desktop Mic is keyed, it is connected to the radio transmitter only. The radio receiver's PA audio output is connected to the Desktop speaker only. A summary of these four combinations of Intercom and Remote switches is given in Section 5: LOCAL/REMOTE CONTROLS SUMMARY. 10
 4.3 CLOCK NOTE The VU Meter bar graphic display is inactive during time setting mode. 4.3.1  12/24 hour mode Below the clock display, there are two switches: SW1 and SW2. 1. Press SW1 for approximately 1 second.  "12__" or "24__" will appear in the display. 2. Press SW2 to toggle between two modes. 3. Press SW1 for approximately 1 second to select required mode. 4.3.2  Setting the Time Having selected the hour mode, the time will display (no flashing colon) with hours intensified. Press SW2 to advance the hours.  Holding SW2 down will automatically advance the clock in increments of about three counts per second.  Note the dot in the upper left indicates PM. 1. Press SW1 for approximately 1 second when the correct hour is displayed.  The time will display with minutes intensified. 2. Press SW2 to advance the minutes. 3. Press SW1 for approximately 1 second when the correct minutes are displayed. 4.3.3 Light Intensity SW2 controls the VU Meter/Clock display intensity.  There are four settings available.  Press SW2 to toggle through the intensities.  When the correct level is reached, and the reference clock advances to the next minute, press SW1 for approximately 1 second. 11
12 4.4  TONE REMOTE CONTROLLER Tone Remote Controllers are used to control Remote Control base stations from locations not near the base station.  Remote operation is accomplished over telephone lines or a continuously keyed radio frequency link. Typical Tone Remote Controllers are capable of selecting up to four predefined radio channels, systems, groups, or special call combinations.  The presets are programmed into the radio using PC Programmer. The Controller and Desktop Station can operate as an intercom by setting the Intercom switch to ON or M. Remotes can be disabled by setting the Station Remote switch to OFF. 4.5  5-FUNCTION REMOTE CONTROLLER The 5-Function Remote Controller is a versatile, full-function controller used for operating and controlling a remotely located EDACS® base station.  Remote operation is accomplished over telephone lines or a continuously keyed radio frequency link.  The Controller is capable of selecting up to five software defined radio systems, group, or special call combinations.  The presets are programmed into the radio using M/A-COM ProGrammer™ software. The Controller and Desktop Station can operate as an intercom by setting the Intercom switch to ON or M.  Remotes can be disabled by setting the Station Remote switch to OFF. 4.5.1  Making a Call from a Remote Controller 1. Select the desired  function/frequency switch on the Controller. 2. Use the Monitor function (if equipped) and wait for a clear channel to proceed. 3. Key the Mic PTT to make a call.  For EDACS wait for a short beep before beginning to speak.  Release the PTT when finished. 4. Adjust the Volume as necessary while receiving a call.
