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.
NOT
E
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).

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 INTERCOM
OFF
ON
M
OFF
ON
1
With this switch configuration,
intercom communication is possible
b
etween 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.

REMOTE INTERCOM
2
This configuration offers interco
m
service only. Neither the Desktop no
r
the Remote Mics can key the radio
transmitter. The radio receiver's audio
can be heard on the Station speaker, bu
t
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 INTERCOM
3
This configuration is for remote control
of the radio, without an interco
m
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.

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.

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
