WITHIN THE MPE RADIUS TO EXPERIENCE RF RADIATION
ABSORPTION, WHICH EXCEEDS THE FCC MAXIMUM PERMISSIBLE
EXPOSURE (MPE) LIMIT. IT IS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE CONTROL
STATION OPERATOR TO ENSURE THAT THE MAXIMUM PERMISSIBLE
EXPOSURE LIMITS ARE OBSERVED AT ALL TIMES DURING CONTROL
STATION TRANSMISSION. THE CONTROL STATION OPERATOR IS TO
ENSURE THAT NO BYSTANDERS ARE WITHIN THE RADIUS LIMITS.
Determining MPE Radius
Maximum Permissible Exposure (MPE) radius is unique for each site. It is determined during site
licensing time based on the complete installation environment (i.e., co-location, antenna type, transmit
power level, etc.). Determination of the MPE distance is the responsibility of the installation licensee.
Calculation of the MPE radius is required as part of the site licensing procedure with the FCC.

INTRODUCTION
The CS7000 Control Station provides the latest in digital radio technology using a Harris’ M5300,
M7300, or Unity XG-100M mobile radio installed into the Control Station. The station may be equipped
to support one or more of the following operating modes:
•
OpenSky® digital operation (M5300 or M7300).
•
Enhanced Digital Access Communications System (EDACS®) or ProVoice™ trunked modes (M5300
or M7300).
•
APCO Project 25 Phase I compliant Common Air Interface (P25 CAI) trunked radio networking.
•
Conventional analog mode.
The CS7000 Control Station is typically used for voice and data dispatch communications via optional
remotely-connected Desktop Controllers. Remote Desktop Controllers may be connected via any of the
following remote control formats:
•
Controller Area Network (CAN) link connection.
•
Tone controlled line input.
•
LAN-based Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) connection.
CAN links are generally limited to 250 feet end-to-end line length, but may utilize an optional
fiber-optic-based CAN Bus Extender for increased separation between the CS7000 Control Station and a
CAN-based Desktop Controller(s). Tone Remote Controllers connect via 2-wire or 4-wire line audio
connections. VoIP requires connectivity to a Wide Area Network (WAN) or Local Area Network (LAN).

3.1
VOICE OPERATION
The voice path operates like a traditional FM analog dispatch radio, with a microphone to transmit
(Push-To-Talk) and a speaker to receive. In OpenSky Trunked Protocol (OTP) and P25 modes, all
transmissions are in digital mode. Speech heard by the microphone is converted and transmitted over-theair as a digitized signal, and re-converted back to analog and heard over the speaker by the receiving unit.
Systems operating in EDACS mode may employ analog or digital voice modes.
3.2
OPTIONAL REMOTE CONTROL (WITH INTERCOM)
The CS7000 Control Station may be equipped with the Remote Control Option. As illustrated in Figure
3-2, the Remote Control Option consists of a enhanced faceplate with intercom controls, and a Remote
Control (Plus) Board which provides the ability to remotely control the station features such as PTT
(transmit), group and/or channel control, and intercom.
3.2.1
Intercom Operation
Control Stations equipped with the optional Remote Control (Plus) Board is also equipped with an
intercom function. The intercom function allows voice communications between the Control Station’s
operator and operators at Desktop Controllers connected via the CAN link, VoIP link, or Tone Remote
Controllers connected to the line connector. Even when intercom is activated, incoming network radio
calls are still routed to the speaker in the Desktop Controllers in receive mode (not keyed). In other
words, radio calls are not muted when the Desktop Controller’s intercom function is active, unless the
remote is keyed and making an intercom transmission.

cable for in-building installations. Refer to Section 0 that begins on page 35 and/or
consult with TAC to identify the proper cabling.
All cables should be installed with a service loop at each end. During the installation,
do NOT bend any cable at a severe angle near a connector. When the installation is
complete, verify no cable is under any tension. Failure to do so may lead to damaged
cables, causing intermittent operation, or complete equipment failure.
Optimal performance is based upon proper mounting techniques. An improperly
installed unit may experience degradation in the quality of communication with the
OpenSky network.
CS7000 INSTALLATION
Determine the customer’s preferences, if any, including location of components. Comply with these
preferences insofar as they are consistent with safety, manufacturer specifications, and generally accepted
professional practices.
5.3.1

Never place any other equipment directly on top of the CS7000. The case is not
designed to handle the weight of other equipment.
CAUTION
WARNING
5.3.2
The CS7000 must be kept away from sources of heat. Adequate ventilation must
be provided to the air inlet at the rear of the unit where the fan is located and to
the ventilation holes on the rear-sides of the unit.
AC Power Connection
The CS7000 only supports an AC power connection. Follow these general guidelines:
•
Ensure familiarity with AC power input connection, including maintenance of the fuse; and,
•
Make certain that cable routing will not damage or interfere with any existing wiring at the
installation location.
In order to accommodate both U.S. and other standards, the CS7000 can be used at voltages in the range
of 110 – 120 VAC (50/60 Hz) and 220 – 240 VAC (50/60 Hz). The power cord for U.S. applications
(110 – 120 VAC) is included with the CS7000 when it ships from the factory. For other applications, the
appropriate power cord must be purchased separately. The receptacle at the back of the CS7000 is an
IEC-320 C14-type connector for accepting a cord with an IEC-320 C13-type plug.
5.3.3
AC Fuse Replacement
In the event that a fuse blows in the CS7000, disconnect AC power from the unit by unplugging the cord
from the AC power source or by unplugging the cord from the IEC-320-type AC power connector on the
CS7000’s rear panel, and follow this replacement procedure:
1. As shown in Figure 5-3, slip the tip of a small flat-blade screwdriver into the pry slot at the top of the
AC Power Module and open the fuse assembly door.
2. Remove the fuse holder and replace the blown fuse with a new 4-amp, 250-volt fuse.
3. Re-insert and reseat the fuse assembly until the panel snaps back into place.
4. Reconnect AC power to the unit.

ANTENNA INSTALLATION
Antenna installations vary greatly depending on the type of antenna mounting structure, height, and the
surrounding environment. Professional antenna installation services are highly recommended when
installing and maintaining communications antenna systems. This manual makes no attempt to provide
step-by-step instructions for installing the antenna and supporting structure.
Rather, general
recommendations and considerations are provided. Further, where installation instructions provided by
antenna and other related antenna equipment manufacturers differ from this manual, the manufacturer’s
instructions are to be followed at all times. When in doubt, always contact the equipment manufacturer or
the Technical Assistance Center for further assistance. Follow all national and local building code
requirements when installing antenna systems.
5.4.1
RF Safety Information
The antenna must be installed by a qualified antenna professional. Improper
installation of the antenna may lead to poor radio performance, and harmful
exposure to RF electromagnetic energy.
WARNING
The CS7000 antenna installation must comply with the FCC RF exposure limits as discussed in Section
1.1. Installation of the antenna for the CS7000 is to be performed so that no person is within the distance
of maximum permissible exposure limits specified in the FCC regulations. The CS7000 must be disabled
before antenna maintenance is performed.
5.4.2
General Information
Several manuals are available that provide useful information during the installation process. General
antenna installation specifications may be found in the Antenna Systems Manual, publication number
LBI-38983. Tower Requirements and General Specifications may be found in the Specifications,
Guidelines and Practices Manual, publication number LBI-39185. In addition, site grounding must
conform to the requirements found in the Site Grounding and Lightning Protection Guidelines Manual,
publication number AE/LZT 123 4618/1.
Failure to follow these instructions will void the product warranty and may expose the end user and others
to excessive radio frequency hazards. Antennas should be installed outdoors.
25
MM-014714-001, Rev. H
5.4.3
Building Installation Considerations
The length of antenna cable should be kept as short as possible to minimize cable loss. Therefore, the
CS7000 should be installed within the building in a location as close to the location of the outside
antenna’s cable entry as reasonably possible. Remote control options (remote desktop controllers) should
be utilized when the most suitable station installation location is impractical for the intended user(s)
access. Consult with RF equipment installation professionals for more information.
If routed through walls, plenums, or other channeling aids, the cable must be protected
from excessive handling, bending, or rubbing.
NOTE
5.4.4
Base Station Antennas
The CS7000’s antenna can be roof-top mounted or mounted on the side of a building. The rooftop-mount
yagi antenna listed in Table 4-2 on page 21 is recommended for an 800 MHz control station. Sidemounting onto a building with other types of directional antennas is also acceptable as long as proper
line-of-sight alignment can be achieved.
For best performance, the antenna should be placed as far away as practical from any other antennas or
structures, and high enough to clear the line-of-sight of major obstructions.
CAUTION
5.4.5
Ensure that feed lines, lightning protection devices, coaxial jumpers, and any other
inline RF devices meet frequency and RF power requirements for the specific
installation.
Transmission Lines
Many different RF coaxial cable types can be used for the antenna connection as long as the utilized cable
meets the following minimum requirements. Cable loss, length of cable, antenna type used, etc., are
issues to consider when selecting the type of cable needed. Minimum cable specifications are:
•
•
•
•
•
50 ohm nominal impedance;
Minimal RF Loss at frequency range;
1.5:1 VSWR (typical);
3 dB/100 feet cable loss (maximum); and,
Weatherproof construction.
CAUTION
5.4.5.1
Always hand-tighten RF connectors. Do not tighten RF connectors with tools unless
recommended by the connector manufacturer. The use of a torque wrench is
acceptable when the manufacturer of the connector has specified a torque value.
Minimum Transmission Line Bending Radius
When Heliax, Superflex, or another similar transmission line is used, always adhere to the minimum
bending requirements provided by the manufacturer (refer to Table 5-1).

Tower Installations
While most Control Station antenna installations are building and roof mounted, occasionally Control
Stations are installed at sites with towers. Always observe all safety instructions and ensure a safe and
proper antenna installation by following all tower manufacturers’ recommendations. In addition to local
building codes, the most current revision of industry standard TIA/EIA-222: Structural Standards for
Steel Antenna Towers and Antenna Supporting Structures must be adhered to during tower and antenna
installations.
5.5
GROUNDING AND LIGHTNING PROTECTION
Proper grounding is necessary, not only for correct functionality and maximum performance, but also for
minimizing damage that may occur from lightning strikes and personnel safety.
Assuming the facility where the CS7000 Control Station is installed is protected properly from lightning
strikes on the AC power line, the station is still susceptible to damage from lightning through the RF
antenna port, LAN, and phone line inputs. The CS7000 Control Station does not include an integrated
lightning protection device at the antenna port, so it is recommended to install an external lightning
protection device. Lightning protection devices are only effective if the connections are made as their
design intended. Follow the manufacturer’s mounting instructions to ensure a properly grounded unit.
A #10 grounding stud is located at the rear of the CS7000 Control Station. For safety purposes, connect it
to a suitable earth ground using 14-AWG (or larger) wire. For additional information, refer to the
applicable instructions in the Site Grounding and Lightning Protection Guidelines Manual, publication
number AE/LZT 123 4618/1.
27
MM-014714-001, Rev. H
5.6
BACKUP POWER SOURCES
Due to the great advancements in the industry’s backup power resources, the CS7000 Control Station
does not provide connections for backup AC or DC power resources. Rather, it is recommended to utilize
commonly available resources discussed in the following sub-sections.
5.6.1
Uninterruptible Power Supplies
It is recommended when a backup AC power source is required for a CS7000 Control Station installation
to use an Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) system. These systems can vary greatly in price, size, and
run time. Well engineered UPS systems monitor the commercial AC power mains for harmful changes in
the power being supplied. Some UPS systems run in “hot standby” mode providing even greater
protection to the equipment connected to the UPS.
5.6.2
Gas/Propane Generators
Generators may be used when the AC power mains are expected to be down for extended periods of time.
However, generators can occasionally produce unwanted fluctuations and power surges that can
potentially damage the power supply in electronic devices. If generators are used, it is strongly
recommended to also use a UPS inline between the generator and CS7000 Control Station as an added
layer of protection from potentially damaging changes in generator power.
5.6.3
Hydrogen Power Systems
Many alternative power products are available in today’s marketplace. Hydrogen power systems are
quickly becoming the main and backup power source of choice for some customers. Hydrogen power
systems are inherent to high reliability with few moving parts, require lower capital costs than combustion
engine generators, and typically have lower life cycle costs than combustion engine generators. They are
environmentally friendly, produce no toxins, can be installed indoors or outdoors, typically have a smaller
footprint and weight than combustion engine generators, and run silently. Hydrogen fuel and replacement
tanks are commonly available in most all locations.
5.7
CONNECTING VoIP DESKTOP REMOTE CONTROLLERS
The IDA model 24-66 VoIP Remote Base Controller is supported for VoIP operations with the CS7000
Control Station. The CS7000 Control Station’s Remote Control (Plus) Board provides VoIP and control
capability to the station. When equipped with the Remote Control (Plus) Board, the rear panel of the
station is equipped with a standard RJ-45 Ethernet Local Area Network (LAN) jack. This jack provides
standard Internet Protocol (IP) based connectivity, and may connect to an Ethernet LAN via hub or switch
equipment. Up to twenty-one (21) VoIP Remote Controllers can be connected to a CS7000 Control
Station.
Establishing Ethernet connectivity between the CS7000 Control Station and a VoIP Remote Base
Controller may be accomplished by one of the following methods:
28
•
Local Ethernet cabling.
•
Public accessed Internet Service Providers (ISP).
•
Privately managed (non-public) ISP.
•
Wireless routers.
•
Any combination of the above.
MM-014714-001, Rev. H
Each method listed above will present unique setup and configuration requirements too numerous to
cover in this manual. Remember, the CS7000 Control Station and the IDA model 24-66 Remote Base
Controller operate via standard Ethernet technology. When choosing the connectivity method,
compatibility issues such as network security, VPN access, firewalls, and port forwarding must be predetermined. While these issues affect the operation of VoIP systems, they are not usually base station or
remote issues, they are network related issues.
However, Harris will make every effort to provide technical assistance. Our system engineering team and
our Technical Assistance Center (listed in Section 3.4) are great system integration resources.
Additionally, the ISP, or the manufacturer of the hub, switch, or router equipment affecting the operation
may be able to provide assistance. Other information about the IDA 24-66 VoIP Remote Base Controller
not mentioned in this manual may be obtained from http://www.idaco.com/.
NOTE
5.7.1
As of the publication of this manual, the CS7000 Remote Control Station may be
configured for Tone Remote Control or VoIP Remote Control, but not both at the
same time. Contact the Technical Assistance Center for additional information.
Local Ethernet Connectivity (no Hub or Switch)
For installations where the CS7000 Control Station and the VoIP remote(s) are co-located at the same
location, one (1) IDA 24-66 VoIP Remote Base Controller may be connected directly to the CS7000
Control Station via an Ethernet cable. See Figure 5-4. Additional VoIP Remote Controllers may be
connected in a daisy chain fashion to the first remote by using the 2nd Ethernet port built into each IDA
24-66 VoIP Remote Base Controller. This configuration is desirable when all equipment is located
together in a relatively small area, such as an office or small business location. This configuration
minimizes the need for routers, hubs, and other potentially costly hardware, and offers increased security
(when needed) since the Ethernet wiring is localized.
Figure 5-4: CS7000 Installed Locally using Ethernet Connectivity (no Hub or Switch)
5.7.2
Ethernet Connectivity using a Hub or Switch
For installations where the CS7000 Control Station and the VoIP remote(s) are co-located at the same
location, and LAN Ethernet connectivity is already established within the building, it is possible for the
CS7000 Control Station and the remote(s) to utilize the existing network (refer toFigure 5-5). This
configuration may also be beneficial in larger buildings to overcome Ethernet line length limitations.
When considering any Ethernet connectivity method other than local Ethernet cabling as discussed in
Section 5.7.1, it is recommended to discuss setup, configuration, and hardware requirements with all
service and hardware providers to establish any incompatibility issues (refer to Section 5.7).
29
MM-014714-001, Rev. H
Figure 5-5: CS7000 Installed Locally using Ethernet Hub or Switch
5.7.3
Remote Control via LAN/WAN Ethernet Connectivity
For installations where the CS7000 Control Station and the VoIP remote(s) are located at different
locations, Wide Area network (WAN) Ethernet connectivity must be utilized. WAN connectivity may be
in the form of a publically accessible ISP (the internet), or a privately managed ISP (refer to Figure 5-6).
In this configuration, one remote may be directly connected to the WAN’s Ethernet connection, and more
remotes may be daisy chained to the first remote similar to the method shown in Figure 5-4. Or, a multiconnection Ethernet device, such as a hub, switch, or router may be used to connect multiple remotes to
the station (refer to Figure 5-6). This configuration is beneficial by providing connectivity to more than
one location, and multiple remotes, over great distances.
When considering any Ethernet connectivity method other than local Ethernet cabling as discussed in
Section 5.7.1, it is recommended to discuss setup, configuration, and hardware requirements with all
service and hardware providers to establish any incompatibility issues (refer to Section 5.7).
Figure 5-6: CS7000 Installed Remotely Using VoIP Using LAN/WAN Connectivity
5.7.4
Ethernet via Wireless Connectivity
When practical, it is possible to utilize 802.11, 802.16, or other similar wireless services for connectivity
between any combination of CS7000 Control Station or IDA 24-66 Remote Base Controllers (refer to
Figure 5-7). These devices are not provided with the CS7000 Control Station, or with the IDA 24-66
VoIP Remote Base Controller.
Wireless routers provide easier installation in buildings where adding Ethernet cabling is costly and
difficult. Since no physical connection exists when using wireless, off-the-shelf consumer wireless
hardware is usually an inexpensive way of providing an extra layer of lightning/surge protection to more
expensive communications equipment like the CS7000 Control Station or VoIP Remote Base Controllers.
30
MM-014714-001, Rev. H
However, since the wireless platforms are transmitted over-the-air, consideration must be placed on
network security, and other connectivity issues such as VPN access, firewalls, and port forwarding.
When considering any Ethernet connectivity method other than local Ethernet cabling as discussed in
Section 5.7.1, it is recommended to discuss setup, configuration, and hardware requirements with all
service and hardware providers to establish any incompatibility issues (refer to Section 5.7).
Figure 5-7: CS7000 Installed Locally using Wireless Ethernet Connectivity
5.8
CONNECTING TONE REMOTE CONTROLLERS
The CS7000 Control Station’s Remote Control (Plus) Board has an RJ-11 LINE input connector for
interfacing one or more Tone Remote Controllers (TRCs) to the station. The maximum number of TRCs
that can be connected to a CS7000 Control Station is limited only by line conditions/characteristics of the
utilized telephone line(s), such as loss, loading and noise. The Secur-It tone from any connected TRC
must arrive at the station at a level of –20 dBm (or greater).
The term “two-wire” describes a single pair of dedicated metallic wires in the form of discrete 600-ohm
telephone-grade wire provided by a customer, 600-ohm dry (quiet line only) telephone-grade line
provided by a telephone company, or the multiplexed equivalent provided by customer owned equipment.
This type of circuit will support the bi-directional transmission of audio signals in the nominal 300 to
3000 Hz frequency range.
The term “four-wire” describes two pairs of (usually) multiplexed dedicated telephone-grade circuits with
one pair going each way. Each pair will support uni-directional transmission of audio signals in the
nominal 300 to 3000 Hz frequency range. One pair is usually designated as the SEND pair while the other
is designated as the RECEIVE pair. These circuits may be obtained for voice applications.
NOTE
5.8.1
As of the publication of this manual, the CS7000 Remote Control Station may be
configured for Tone Remote Control or VoIP Remote Control, but not both at the
same time. Contact the Technical Assistance Center for additional information.
Tone Signaling
In tone remote applications, Tone Remote Controllers send specific audio tones at pre-defined levels and
time lengths down the line where the station assigns the decoded tones to control various functions of the
station. The format of the signaling is an industry standard that has been used for many years. The remote
board of the station decodes the sequence of tones and then it instructs the mobile radio installed in the
CS7000 to perform a specific function. The remote board may be programmed to allow control of the
following functions of the radio or desktop station:
31
MM-014714-001, Rev. H
•
Select a Specific System and Group (SG function);
•
Transmit on a Specific System and Group;
•
Channel Guard Monitor; and,
•
Turn Scanning Off or On.
Other possible actions include:
•
Remote Board Output Selection and,
•
Control Other Keyboard Functions of the Radio.
Signaling from a TRC consists of a high-level Secur-it or Guard tone, followed by the appropriate
medium-level function tone, followed by a hold tone if the transmitter is keyed. The tone control
sequence is shown in Figure 5-8.
The level of the function tone is sent at the same level as the average voice test tone and is the reference
for the level of the other tones. Secur-it tone is a +10 dB, 2175 Hz tone present for 125 milliseconds.
The Secur-it tone is followed by a 40 millisecond, 0 dB Function tone. The Function tone is followed by
a 2175 Hz Hold tone at -20 dB level for as long as the PTT is pressed.
The CS7000 has the ability to decode a dual-function TRC, where there are two functions tones of 40
milliseconds each. This increases the possible functions greatly, but does add an increase in the time of
action by 40 milliseconds.
Figure 5-8: Tone Remote Control Signaling
The configuration and selected function of the TRC determines the frequency of the function tone.
Industry standard function tones range from 1050 Hz to 2050 Hz, and are spaced 100 Hz apart. The
CS7000 has the capability of extending this range and intervals when configured.

5.8.2
Connecting One Tone Remote Controller
Line loading characteristics of the LINE input of the Control Station must be properly setup. If only one
TRC is connected, the CS7000 Control Station and the TRC are both considered line terminating end
points. Both devices must have their line impedance set to the low impedance (600 ohm) state for proper
termination. This line interface configuration is illustrated in the following figure:

LINE Input Connector
Table 5-3 describes the pins of the CS7000 Control Station’s RJ-11 modular jack used for 2-wire and
4-wire line connections. If both 2-wire and 4-wire connections are available at the TRC, the customer is
free to choose either connection as the CS7000 Control Station is factory set for 4-wire operation, 4-wire
is recommended, though not required. Choosing 2-wire for trunking operation will not allow the alert
tones during radio transmission to be heard at the TRC. A phone-line crossover cable (refer to Figure
5-13) may be required in some installations.
CAUTION
34
In all 4-wire TRC installations, connect the Control Station Rx audio lines to TRC Tx
audio lines, and connect the Control Station Tx audio lines to TRC Rx audio lines. This
may require a phone-line crossover cable (refer to Figure 5-13). Line misconnections
will cause control failures.

TRC Physical Connections
A variety of Tone Remote Controllers (TRCs) may be interfaced to the CS7000 Control Station. The
TRC supported by Harris is the IDA model 24-66. The IDA model 24-66 has two (2) RJ-type modular
jacks for connections to 600 ohm lines. The eight pin RJ-45 jack is normally connected to the desktop
station. Using 2-wire remote operation requires minimal effort to connect remotes to the desktop station;
each device uses Line 1 for connectivity. Systems configured for 4-Wire operation over leased
conditioned lines from a 3rd party (such as a telephone company) should be equally as simple to connect
as traditional telco MUX equipment at each end of the network typically uses Line 1 for outbound audio
and Line 2 for inbound audio functionality, a perfect match at all demarcation points.
35
MM-014714-001, Rev. H
However, local connection of 4-wire remotes use the same Line Input and Line Output scheme (pinout) at
the RJ connectors as the CS7000 (refer to Figure 5-12). This requires the reversal (crossover) of Line 1
and Line 2 functionality at one or more devices making up the tone remote system.
Crossover of Line 1 and Line 2 may be accomplished by one of several methods:
•
Using a phone-line crossover cable connected to the CS7000 (preferred method).
•
Reversing Line 1 and Line 2 connections within a telco junction box connected to the CS7000
(alternate method).
•
Configuring the line input jumpers inside a IDA 24-66 remote (not recommended).
Method 1 reverses Line 1 and Line 2 connections within a specially constructed 4-Wire phone line
crossover cable (refer to Figure 5-13) connected to the CS7000. This supports the installation method
illustrated in Figure 5-9. This method also sets up the desktop station for local direct connection from one
or more 4-wire remotes as illustrated in Figure 5-10 and Figure 5-11. This method allows remotes to be
connected using pre-assembled commercial off-the-shelf telephone cables. This method is also
acceptable when a supervisory remote configuration is not required (refer to the remote controller
manufacturer’s installation manual for supervisory installations).
Method 2 reverses Line 1 and Line 2 connections within a telco junction box connected to the CS7000.
This method also sets up the desktop station for direct connection to one or more 4-wire remotes as
illustrated in Figure 5-10 and Figure 5-11. This method allows remotes to be connected using
pre-assembled commercial off-the-shelf telephone cables. This method is also acceptable when a
supervisory remote configuration is not required (refer to the remote controller manufacturer’s installation
manual for supervisory installations).
Method 3 reverses the Line 1 and Line 2 connections presented to J5 and J6 inside a 24-66 Tone Remote
Controller. This method may be desirable in applications where more than one remote is connected to a
control station and supervisory control of additional remotes is desired. Refer to APPENDIX B for
additional information on reconfiguring the supervisory remote in this configuration.
In all cases, the Tone Remote Control manufacturer’s instructions provide the ultimate guidelines for
connection and interconnecting parallel remote controllers.
5.9
CONNECTING CAN–LINKED REMOTE CONTROLLERS
5.9.1
General Information
Each CS7000 remote model may be installed using the Controller Area Network (CAN) connection. The
CS7000 is considered a CAN device, and each CAN-based Desktop Controller in the installation is also
considered a CAN device. Because CAN devices do not have internal terminators, the CAN link must be
terminated at both ends via a CAN terminator. Up to five (5) CAN-based Desktop Controllers can be
connected to the CS7000 Control Station.
Typically, CAN-based Desktop Controllers and other devices have two (2) CAN ports to support “daisychaining” of multiple CAN-based Desktop Controllers, or other CAN devices. The M5300 or M7300
mobile radio installed into the CS7000 has two can ports on the rear of the mobile radio. Because CAN
devices do not have internal terminators, the CAN link must be terminated at both ends via a CAN
terminator. A terminator should always be installed on the second CAN port on the rear of the mobile
radio (refer to Figure 5-14 and Figure 5-15) unless an Y-cable is used on the rear of the CS7000 Control
Station (refer to Figure 5-16). When using a Y-cable at the Control Station, it may be necessary to
remove the CAN terminator on the rear of the mobile radio when CAN cable lengths approach 250 foot.
In all cases, the farthest CAN device on each side of the Y-cable must be terminated.
36
MM-014714-001, Rev. H
Figure 5-14 through Figure 5-16 assumes the total CAN link connections are less than
250 feet in length. If the total connection length must exceed 250 feet, use the optional
fiber-optic-based CAN Bus Extender to extend the CAN link beyond this normal
250-foot limit. Refer to Section 5.9.3 for additional information.
NOTE
To make CAN connections, visually align the 3-pin male connectors of the cable to the 3-pin female
connectors on each unit. Connect by pushing and twisting the outer housing of the cable connector until a
click is sensed. Do not use excessive force when twisting.

CAN-Based Desktop Controller Connections
A CAN-based Desktop Controller has two CAN ports on its rear panel to support “daisy-chaining” of
multiple CAN devices. When a controller is in the middle of a daisy chain, two separate CAN cables
connect to the Y-cable (optional, not supplied). When the controller is at the end of a chain of devices,
one CAN port connects to the previous CAN device and the other port must be terminated with a CAN
Terminator (part number CD-014027-001).
5.9.2.1
Collocated Installations
For installations where a CAN-based Desktop Controller is near the same location as the CS7000 and no
routing of cables into walls or through plenums is required, a standard CAN cable can be used. For cables
whose connectors can be routed without the fear of being damaged in routing (e.g., cables do not need to
be snaked through holes), the molded CAN cables are preferred, part number series CA-009562-nnn. The
“nnn” suffix specifies cable length in feet. See Table 4-2 on page 21 for specific cable part numbers.
If cable connectors might get snagged or damaged during routing, but a non-plenum-rated cable can be
used, it is recommended that spooled Belden cable part number 1800B (or equivalent) be purchased
separately. However, a CA-009562-nnn CAN cable must also be purchased, as its molded connectors
must be spliced to both ends of the spooled Belden #1800B cable. Recommended splicing instructions are
presented on page 40.

MM-014714-001, Rev. H
5.9.2.2
In-Wall/Plenum CAN Cable Installations
5.9.2.2.1 Cable Requirements and Routing
As described in the previous section, various lengths of molded CAN cables are available. The standard
molded CAN cable, part number CA-009562-030, is for general use. However, for in-building
applications, this cable does not meet certain safety agency codes for routing through walls and plenums.
For this reason, a plenum-rated cable, Belden cable part number 1801B (or equivalent), can be purchased
separately, by the spool. This cable is recommended for in-wall/plenum CAN cable installations because
of its properties of impedance, shielding, flexibility, and resistance to flame. In-wall/plenum routing faces
the rigors of “snaking” and pulling of the cable. These actions can damage installed connectors.
Therefore, a procedure for routing raw cable through the walls and mating connections reliably is
necessary.
Figure 5-17 illustrates the general concept for connecting the CS7000 Control Station to the CAN-based
Desktop Controller via in-wall/plenum CAN cabling. Follow these requirements:
•
Materials (e.g., junction boxes, cabling, etc) must meet all building codes.
•
The in-wall/plenum cable must be a plenum-rated, shielded, twisted-wire pair of 22-AWG. Belden
part number 1801B cable (or equivalent) is recommended. If the utilized cable does not meet building
codes, it must be dressed or placed inside a conduit (not provided), or some other installation method
must be employed so that it does meet building codes.
•
Total physical length of a CAN link, including any amount of cable daisy-chained through multiple
CAN devices cannot exceed 250 feet (76.2 meters). This maximum length assumes the optional fiberoptic-based CAN Bus Extenders are not employed; see Section 5.9.3 for additional information.
The standard (non-plenum) CAN cable, part number CA-009562-030 for example, is spliced to the
plenum cable using 3-position terminal blocks placed inside junction boxes. Plenum-rated cable is needed
for in-wall/plenum routing, but the standard cable, as long as it isn’t routed through a wall or concealed
ducting, is acceptable for connections to the wall. The standard cable is needed because its solder-type
molded connectors do not accommodate customary in-field installation.

39
MM-014714-001, Rev. H
•
Junction boxes (2 required); and,
•
Assorted tools for routing cable through walls/plenums and mounting junction boxes.
5.9.2.2.3 Splicing CAN Cables
The following procedure is recommended for splicing plenum-rated cable to the standard CAN cable:
1. Cut the standard CAN cable (part number CA-009562-030) approximately in half.
2. If not already, power-off both the CS7000 and the other CAN devices. Both units should remain off
until after the cable installation is complete.
3. Connect each end of the cut CAN cable to the CS7000 Control Station’s CAN port and to the CANbased Desktop Controller’s CAN port.
4. Using the cut ends of the cable, determine acceptable locations for wall junction boxes and mount the
two junction boxes using an approved method.
5. Route the cables into the junction boxes and anchor according to building codes.
6. Cut off any excess cable length, allowing at least one foot (0.3 meters) for splicing and servicing. The
total amount of cable removed from both halves is an amount that can be added to the 220 feet of
plenum cable, if needed. For example, if 10 feet of excess length is cut from the standard 30-foot
CAN cable, the plenum cable is allowed to be as long as 230 feet. In any case, do not exceed 250 feet
(76.2 meters) of total CAN cable length.
7. Measure out an amount of spooled plenum cable needed to reach the two junction box splice points
and route it through the building walls, plenums, etc. using approved methods.
8. Route the cable’s ends into the junction boxes and anchor according to building codes.
9. Cut off any excess cable length, allowing a foot or so of length for splicing.
10. With a 14-AWG wire stripper, strip off 3/4-inch of the cable’s outer jacket and remove any shield
foil. This dimension is critical, as too much unexposed lead length can have an adverse effect on
performance. Ensure no damage was done to the individual wires.
11. With a 22-AWG wire stripper, strip off 5/16-inch of insulation from each individual wire in the
shielded pair. The third wire in the cable is the shield/ground wire; do not cut it. See Figure 5-18.

12. At both ends of the spooled plenum cable, simultaneously insert the red and black wires into two
poles of the terminal block by simultaneously pushing two adjacent buttons down with a large #2
flathead screwdriver, and guiding the bare end of the wire into the side openings of the terminal
40
MM-014714-001, Rev. H
block. Next, release pressure on the buttons while ensuring the bare wires are visible entering the
block’s clamping mechanisms. See Figure 5-19. The order of wires in the terminal block housing
does not matter, but the red and black wires must be next to each other. Consistency between the two
blocks is recommended.

13. Insert the bare shield wire into the third pole of the terminals block by pushing the button down with
the screwdriver, guiding the wire into the opening, and releasing pressure on the button.
14. At the CS7000 Control Station’s standard CAN cable, strip and connect the wires of the cable to the
respective terminal block so matching wire colors on this half of the cable are electrically connected.
15. At the CAN-based Remote Controller, repeat the previous step for the other half of the standard CAN
cable.
16. Finish the installation by pushing the terminal blocks into the junction boxes and covering the boxes
appropriately. Alternatively, the terminal blocks may be secured with small screws (not supplied) at
the mounting flanges.
5.9.3
Connecting a CAN Bus Extender (Fiber Optic Cable Installations)
The optional fiber-optic-based CAN Bus Extenders must be employed in any connection exceeding 250
feet. When using CAN Bus Extenders to connect a CAN-based Desktop Controller to the CS7000, one
extender must be co-located and connected to the CS7000. Another CAN Bus Extender must be colocated with and connected directly to the CAN-based Desktop Controller. For installation-related
information, refer to publication number MM-009088-001.
5.10 CONNECTING DEVICES TO THE EXTERNAL I/O PORT
A 25-pin D-subminiature female (DB-25F) connector is located on the rear panel of the CS7000 Control
Station. This connector is an interconnection point for various external connections to the station such as
auxiliary audio inputs, external PTT, etc.
Additionally, both the Local Control Board and the Remote Control (Plus) Board have board-mounted
jumpers used to configure board operation, including certain I/O connections. Jumper settings and I/O
connector pin-out differs slightly between the local and remote boards. The following sub-sections
provide an overview of jumper settings and I/O connector pin-out for local and remote models.

POWER-UP PROCEDURE
After installing the CS7000 Control Station per Section 5 in this manual, and installing related equipment
such as remote controllers per Section 5 and the instructions supplied with the equipment, the station is
ready to power-up. Follow this procedure:
1. Connect AC power to the CS7000 Control Station. See Section 5.3.2 on page 24 for details.
2. Turn on the station via its rear panel-mounted power switch.
3. Verify power is applied by checking for an illuminated power LED on the left-front panel of the
station.
4. If the optional CAN Bus Extender is employed, connect its “wall cube” power supply to an
appropriate AC power source and then connect the supply’s 24-volt DC cable to the extender’s DC
power input jack. Repeat this for the CAN Bus Extender at each remote CAN-based Desktop
Controller location.
5. If using a remote CAN-based Desktop Controller, follow the instructions supplied with the controller
and power-up the unit.
6. If using a third-party Tone Remote Controller (TRC), follow manufacturer’s instructions regarding
TRC power-up.
7. For a local control station, continue with the configuration procedures presented in Section 7 that
follows.
8. For a remote control station, continue with the configuration procedures presented in Section 8 which
begins on page 50.
9. For a local-control CS7000 Control Station (part number CT-013892-001), connect the desk
microphone directly to the radio/control head on the station.
For a remote-control CS7000 Control Station (part number CT-013892-002), connect the desk
microphone to the station’s control panel microphone connector (not to the radio/control head).
NOTE
Inside a remote-control CS7000 Control Station (part number CT-013892-002),

LOCAL CONTROL CONFIGURATION
7.1
PROGRAMMING THE RADIO FOR EXTERNAL I/O OPERATION
A local control CS7000 Control Station requires no additional configuration or alignment when used with
the supplied microphone. However, if the External I/O port is utilized, several programming features may
need to be verified and reconfigured for proper operation.
1. Power-up the CS7000 Control Station per Section 6.
2. Connect a PC running Radio Personality Manager (RPM) programming software to the Serial A USB
programming port on the rear panel of the station.
NOTE
It may be necessary to install USB Port Driver Software SK-015121-001. This driver
configures the PC to recognize the CS7000 Control Station allowing assignment of a
COM Port number to the USB port. The assigned COM Port number is loaded into the
RPM programming software to communicate with the Control Station. Refer to the
USB Driver Installation Manual, publication number MM-015245-001, and the help
menu within RPM for more information about setting up RPM and the COM Port.
3. Read and save the existing radio personality from the station using RPM. Refer to help screens if
necessary.
4. Within RPM, click Options > External IO Options to open the External I/O dialog box.
5. Set the following parameters as shown in Figure 7-1:
a. In the dialog box’s External Output Control Line 1 section, set Alarm Output to External Mute,
and Active to Low. This configures the operation of the Local Control Station’s external mute
output logic line at rear panel connector P3 pin 22.
b. Near the bottom of the dialog box, set Auxiliary Input 1’s Keycode to PTT, and set its Control
Unit to A. This configures the operation of the Local Control Station’s external PTT logic input
logic line at rear panel connector P3 pin 16.
c. Near the bottom of the dialog box, set Auxiliary Input 2’s Keycode as required, and set its
Control Unit to A. This input can be used for additional features such as a hookswitch (HKSW),
an inverted hookswitch (IHKSW), or not at all (disabled). This configures the operation of the
Local Control Station’s logic input line at rear panel connector P3 pin 8.
6. Click OK, and then save the changes to the Control Station personality. After verifying updates, it is
recommended to save the updated personality to an archive.

REMOTE CONTROL CONFIGURATION
8.1
GENERAL INFORMATION
A remote-control CS7000 Control Station is equipped with the optional Remote Control (Plus) Board.
This board must be configured to meet the specific requirements of the installation and the specific needs
of the customer. Since the board is an integral part of a remote-control CS7000 Control Station,
configuring the board configures the station. In addition, mobile radio personality programming changes
may also be required, as discussed later.
Configuration is accomplished via an IP-based Ethernet connection and web browser software running on
a computer. The web browser communicates with a configuration program running in the station’s
Remote Control (Plus) Board. To the web browser, this program appears as an Internet web site.
The computer can be linked directly to the CS7000 Control Station using a standard straight-through
Ethernet cable and a static IP address. This is the recommended method when using the configuration
program. Alternately, the computer can be remotely linked to the station via an IP-based network access
point (i.e., via switches and/or routers), with appropriate interconnections and network access/settings.
8.2
TOOLS REQUIRED
The following tools are required to use the CS7000 Control Station’s configuration program:
8.3
•
Lap-top or Desktop Computer — A computer with web browser software installed is required. For
configuration via direct Ethernet cable connection, the computer must have an RJ-45 Ethernet
port/jack. Alternately, if configuration is done over an IP-based network, the computer must be
capable of accessing the network (i.e., have either wired or wireless access to the network). A lap-top
type Personal Computer (PC) running Microsoft Windows XP (or later) operating system software is
recommended, but not required.
•
Web Browser Software installed on the Computer — Microsoft Internet Explorer version 7 (or
later) is recommended. Other web browsers may be used. However, as of the publication of this
manual, the station’s configuration program has only been tested with Internet Explorer version 7.
Therefore, compatibility cannot be guaranteed with other web browsers.
•
Ethernet Cable(s) — A standard straight-through Cat5 type (or better) Ethernet cable is required.
This cable is used to connect an RJ-45 Ethernet jack on the rear of the station to an RJ-45 Ethernet
jack at the computer (or network switch/router). Two cables of this type are required if the
configuration will be done over the IP-based network and the computer does not have wireless access.
ESTABLISHING A COMMUNICATION LINK
8.3.1
Configuring the Computer’s Network Parameters
To configure the CS7000 Control Station for remote control operation, the computer must be able to
communicate with the Remote Control (Plus) Board in the station via the board’s static IP address. This
typically requires configuring the computer with a static IP address, and on the same network (subnet) as
the Remote Control (Plus) Board.
On a computer running Windows XP, this configuration is accomplished via the Internet Protocol
(TCP/IP) Properties dialog box for the respective network card (i.e., the network card with the Ethernet
port/jack that the CS7000 Control Station will be connected to). Follow this procedure:
50
MM-014714-001, Rev. H
1. Access the Windows Control Panel. Typically, this can be accomplished by clicking the Start button,
clicking Settings, and then clicking Control Panel.
2. In Control Panel, double-click Network Connections to open the Network Connections window.
3. In the Network Connections window, double-click the Local Area Connection shortcut
corresponding to the computer’s network card (having the Ethernet port/jack that the station will be
connected to). This will open the respective Local Area Connection Properties dialog box for this
network card. An example is shown in Figure 8-1 (left image).
4. In the Local Area Connection Properties dialog box’s connection list, click Internet Protocol
(TCP/IP) to select it, and then click the Properties button. This will open the Internet Protocol
(TCP/IP) Properties dialog box.
5. Enter the computer’s required IP address via the IP address text box. The computer must have a
unique IP address that is not used by the CS7000 Control Station, or by any other IP-based device
(such as a VoIP Remote Controller) in the same subnet.
6. Enter the required subnet mask via the Subnet mask text box. This mask should be the same as
subnet mask used by the CS7000 Control Station’s Remote Control (Plus) Board (default =
255.255.255.0). At a minimum, the subnet mask should be set so the CS7000 Control Station and the
configuring computer are on the same “network.” An example is shown in Figure 8-1 (right image).
7. Enter the gateway IP address via the Default gateway text box. This address should be set to the
desired gateway IP address, if it exists, and if there are VoIP Remote Controllers outside of the
CS7000 Control Station’s “network.”
8. The DNS Server IP Addresses typically does not need to be set.
9. Click the dialog box’s OK button and if prompted, re-start the computer.

8.3.2
Establishing a Communication Link between the Computer and the
Control Station
Follow this procedure to establish a communication link between the computer and the CS7000 Control
Station’s Remote Control (Plus) Board:
1. For a local Ethernet link, connect a straight-through Cat5 (or better) Ethernet cable between the
computer’s RJ-45 Ethernet jack and the COMPUTER RJ-45 Ethernet jack on the rear of the station.
For a remote link over an IP-based network, connect the computer to a network switch/router as
required, and use a straight-through Cat5 (or better) Ethernet cable to connect the COMPUTER RJ-45
Ethernet jack on the rear of the station to the co-located switch/router on the same IP network.
Configure network parameters as necessary.
2. At the RJ-45 Ethernet jack on the rear of the station, verify the two LED’s on the jack are on. They
should turn on within seconds of being connected to an operating computer/switch/router. This
indicates the CS7000 Control Station’s Remote Control (Plus) Board and the computer/switch/router
have established a hardware communications path.
NOTE
Having LEDs in the “on” state does not mean the computer can access the station’s
configuration programming running in the Remote Control (Plus) Board. There can be
network parameter incompatibilities that can inhibit communications even though there
is a functional hardware path. If the two LEDs do not turn on, try using to the CS7000
Control Station’s LAN RJ-45 Ethernet jack, instead of the COMPUTER’s RJ-45
Ethernet jack.
3. At the computer, start-up the web browser.
4. In the web browser’s address bar, enter the CS7000 Control Station’s IP address. The default address
is 10.0.0.201. When communication is established between the station and the computer, a small
login dialog box will appear in the web browser session. This dialog box has text boxes for entering a
user name and a password. See Figure 8-2.
5. If the login dialog box does not appear, verify the address in the web browser’s address bar is entered
correctly. See Sections 8.3.3 and 8.3.4 for additional information.

NOTE
8.3.3
If a communication link between the CS7000 Control Station and the computer cannot
be established, first try resetting the station’s IP network parameters to factory default
settings by following the procedure in Section 8.3.4. Next, repeat the procedure in this
section using the default IP address (listed in Section 8.3.3) in the web browser’s
address bar. If a communication link still cannot be established, contact the Technical
Assistance Center (TAC) for assistance. TAC contact numbers are listed in Section 3.4
on page 19.

8.3.4
Resetting the Control Station’s Network Parameters to Factory Defaults
The CS7000 Control Station’s IP network parameters can be reset to factory default settings as follows:
1. Remove the station’s top cover.
2. Inside the station, locate the Remote Control (Plus) Board at the rear panel.
3. Press and hold switch SW2 on the board.
4. Press and release the board’s RESET switch.
5. Wait for LEDs D3 and D4 on the board to begin to blink. This should begin approximately eight (8)
seconds after the release of the RESET switch.
6. Release switch SW2. The CS7000 Control Station will automatically restart and resume normal
operation, with the default settings as listed in Section 8.3.3.
7. Re-install the station’s top cover.
8.4
NOTE
When the Remote Control (Plus) Board is reset, it will clear the login dialog box’s
“Remember my password” checkbox. In this case, the password will need to re-entered
the next time the configuration program is run.
NOTE
Non-network related parameters of the board can be reset to default settings using the
configuration program’s Backup and Restore web page. See Section 8.18 (page 108)
for additional information.
VOIP REMOTE CONTROLLER IP ADDRESS REQUIREMENTS
Each VoIP Remote Controller interfaced with the CS7000 Control Station requires a static IP address
which is unique within the IP network (subnet). This static IP address must be specifically programmed
into each VoIP Remote Controller.
There must be a unique static IP address and a static TCP/IP port assignment for audio. In “multicast”
applications, this IP address is in addition to the IP addresses of the VoIP Remote Controllers and the
Radio Panel. All devices use this IP address for their audio. In “unicast” operations, the Radio Panel
sends audio to the VoIP Remote Controllers individually using each controller’s IP address.
Installation of a VoIP Remote Controller and CS7000 Control Station equipment on a current corporate
network will almost certainly involve of the network’s IT personnel.
8.5
RADIO PERSONALITY PROGRAMMING REQUIREMENTS
The CS7000 Control Station uses the internal mobile radio’s rear external I/O connector for radio audio,
PTT, external mute, and possibly the hookswitch line. This functionality is defined in the radio’s
personality. Radio personality is configured with the Harris’ Radio Personality Manager (RPM) software
application. The CS7000 Control Station makes the following assumptions about the personality
programming of the CS7000 Control Station’s internal mobile radio.
54
•
The radio’s OUT1 Programmable Output Function must be programmed for “External Mute”.
•
The radio’s INP1 Programmable Input Function must be set to “PTT”.
MM-014714-001, Rev. H
•
The CS7000 Control Station’s Remote Control Systems can only use the System / Group Key (SGn
Key) to select the radio’s selected system and group. Ideally, these SG Key mapped systems and
groups should be the only systems and groups programmed into the radio. This effectively restricts a
CS7000 Remote Control Control Station to sixteen System and Group combinations.
If there are additional non-SG Key mapped systems and groups within the radio personality, there is a
strong potential for a Remote Control System user to become very confused. If the radio’s selected
system and group is not one of the SG Key mapped systems and groups, a VoIP Remote Controller will
treat the radio as being on a “Disabled” channel. The VoIP Remote Controller will not transmit until the
radio’s selected system and group is changed to a SG Key mapped system and group, either by the VoIP
Remote Controller or by a radio control head.
In the case of a Tone Remote Control System, the TRC user may be confused as to the source of the audio
they are listening to. Transmitting from a TRC will always change the radio’s selected system and group
to the TRC’s selected system and group.
•
If the Remote Control System is configured to manage an Emergency, then the radio’s Emergency
Key Delay parameter must be set to zero seconds. This is the time the control head’s Emergency Key
must be held down before the radio will recognize the Emergency function. The default value is one
second.
•
Radio Hookswitch functionality is programmable.
•
Radio Output Function OUT2 should be programmed to “Tx Indicator” when the radio uses trunked
radio systems. This is especially important in the case of the VoIP Remote Control System where the
VoIP Remote Controller users do not hear radio-generated Call Progress Alert Tones.
NOTE
8.5.1
When using RPM software version R04 or earlier, a ‘SC5’ file may be required to
enable OUT2 as a “Tx Indicator” function. Refer to Section 8.5.5 for additional
information. RPM software version R05 and later includes this setting on the External
I/O screen.
External I/O Settings
From Radio Personality Manager (RPM), access the External I/O dialog box and configure the following
parameters within the radio personality. An example dialog box is shown in Figure 8-3:
•
In the dialog box’s External Output Control Line 1 section, set Alarm Output to External Mute, and
Active to either Low or High, as required: The station’s COR function can be set with either polarity.
This configures the operation of the Remote Control Station’s external mute output logic line at rear
panel connector P3 pin 22 (radio OUT1).
•
If desired, enable the Tx indicator function on OUT2 as follows: In the dialog box’s External Output
Control Line 2 section, set Alarm Output to Extern. Tx Indicator (Control Line 1 must first be set to
External Mute). This station COR function is an active-low function. If and external Tx indicator
function is not required, this output can be programmed for other functions, such as speaker relay
control. This configures the operation of the Remote Control Station’s logic line at rear panel
connector P3 pin 20 (radio OUT2).
•
Near the bottom of the dialog box, set Auxiliary Input 1’s Keycode to PTT, and leave its Control
Unit setting at A (the default). This configures the operation of the Remote Control Station’s external
PTT logic input logic line (radio INP1) at rear panel connector P3 pin 16 (radio INP1).
55
MM-014714-001, Rev. H
•
Near the bottom of the dialog box, set Auxiliary Input 2’s Keycode as required, and leave its Control
Unit setting at A (the default). This input can be used for additional features such as a hookswitch
(HKSW), an inverted hookswitch (IHKSW), or not at all (disabled). This configures the operation of
the Local Control Station’s logic input line at rear panel connector P3 pin 8 (radio INP2).
Figure 8-3: RPM’s External I/O Dialog Box
8.5.2
System / Group Key (SG Key) Settings
Configure one or more of the SG Keys for a specific System and Group. The CS7000 Control Station’s
Remote Control Systems can only select a SG Key mapped System and Group.
Further, the "Home" and "Forced Emergency" channels, if used, must be mapped to a SG Key mapped
System and Group. The VoIP Remote Control system will then automatically be updated to that System
and Group. However, the Tone Remote Control System will require one of the Remote Update controls
on the Remotes Web Page Tone Options Tab be selected and Tone Remote Controllers that are
compatible with these Remote Update functions for the radio’s "Home" and "Forced Emergency"
channels to function properly.

8.5.3
Supervisory Screen Settings
Enable or disable the radio’s EDACS Failsoft display. When enabled, the radio will display the Failsafe
icon when it is on an EDACS system and it detects the system is operating in Failsoft mode.
Enable or disable the "Last SG" key functionality. When this function is enabled, the Last SG button will
toggle the radio’s Selected System and Group between the current SG Key mapped system and group and
the previous SG Key mapped System and Group. The Last SG Key will also toggle between the previous
SG Key mapped System and Group and the "Home Channel" mapped System and Group.
Enable or disable the radio’s ability to declare an Emergency.
Enable or disable to the radio’s ability to clear a currently declared Emergency.
If the radio is programmed to declare an Emergency, the Emergency Key Delay parameter must be set to
zero. This is necessary in order to work with the CS7000 Control Station’s key press and key release
functionality.
The Emergency Key Delay parameter will also affect the Emergency Key on any attached control heads.
The Emergency button on a CH-721 control head will also have use of the zero Emergency Key Delay
parameter. The Emergency button on a CH-721 control head will then be a normal press and release
57
MM-014714-001, Rev. H
button where the Emergency function goes active on the key press and where the button’s down time is
ignored. In a typical CS7000 Control Station dispatch environment, this is felt to be acceptable.
If this is unacceptable and the control head’s Emergency Button must be set for a significant down time
debounce value, then the CS7000 Control Station can not be configured to use its Emergency Actions.
However, it is possible for a CS7000 Control Station to declare on Emergency by configuring the CS7000
Control Station to a MACRO Action and then defining the corresponding MACRO number within the
radio to generate the properly timed Emergency Key Press and Release.
8.5.4
Keypad Option Settings
Configure Hookswitch functionality. RPM’s Keypad Options dialog box mainly defines the radio’s
functionality when its Hookswitch input is active. A sample dialog box is shown in Figure 8-6.
8.5.5
General Options Screen (TX Indicator SC5 File)
When using RPM software version R04, it may be necessary to specify a .sc5 file in order to configure
the radio’s Tx Indicator function. To do so, press the button to the right of the SC5 File Name text box.
This will bring up a Browse File dialog box that can then be pointed to the desired .sc5 file. Additionally,
RPM must be specifically enabled to allow the use of a .sc5 file.
When using RPM version R05 or later, the External I/O screen provides the TX Indicator feature as
shown in Figure 8-3.

Saving Changes and Resetting the Station via the Configuration
Program
Most configuration web pages have a Save Changes button and a Save Changes and Reset Unit
button. To save any changes made on a page, click one of these buttons before leaving the page.
Otherwise changes will be lost when browsing to a new page.
The Save Changes button does not change the CS7000 Control Station’s configuration. It simply saves
the changes that have been made in the Remote Control (Plus) Board. Changes will not become active
until after the station is reset.
The Save Changes and Reset Unit button implements all current and “saved” web page changes into
the CS7000 Control Station’s configuration. This will also restart the station. This must be done before
ending the configuration program. The CS7000 Control Station essentially does a power-up reset.
Clicking this button saves
current changes, but does
not implement the
changes.
Clicking this button saves
current changes and
implements them via a
station reset.

COR Considered Active Time
The COR Considered Active Time parameter is the time in milliseconds that the radio’s COR output
must be active before the Remote Control (Plus) Board concludes the radio is receiving audio. If the
radio’s COR output remains high after this time interval, the Remote Control (Plus) Board will process
the radio’s receive (speaker) audio for as long as the radio’s COR output remains active.
When set to zero (milliseconds), the Remote Control (Plus) Board does not debounce the radio COR
output.
Setting this timer too large may prevent the CS7000 Control Station from playing short radio alert tones.
For example, the radio’s transmit grant tone typically lasts only 50 milliseconds.
63
MM-014714-001, Rev. H
The M5300, M7300, and Unity XG-100M mobile radios use OUT1 as the radio COR output. The OUT1
output must be assigned to the External Mute function.
Transmit Considered Active Time
The Transmit Considered Active Time parameter is the time in milliseconds that the radio’s transmit
indicator output must be active before the Remote Control (Plus) Board concludes the radio is
transmitting on a voice channel after the board initiates a transmission. If the radio’s Transmit Indicator
output is active when the timer expires, the board will begin transmitting audio on the radio’s external
microphone input.
The purpose of this timer is to differentiate between a radio transmitting on a control channel to acquire a
voice channel on a trunked system and a radio that is then transmitting on the assigned voice channel. The
period should then be set so that the Transmit Indicator output will go active before the timer times out on
a channel acquisition transmission.
If the radio’s Transmit Indicator goes active immediately when the radio is transmitting, as on a nontrunked system conventional channel, then this period can be set to zero.
This timer does not function when the Transmit Indicator Polarity (Digital Output tab on the Radio
Configuration web page) is set to “Ignore.”
The M5300, M7300, and Unity XG-100M mobile radios use OUT2 as the radio’s Transmit Indicator
Output. The radio’s OUT2 output must be assigned to the “OK To Talk” function.
Max PTT Time
The Max PTT Time parameter is the time in seconds that the Remote Control (Plus) Board will allow for
a Remote Control (Plus) Board-initiated transmission. The timer starts when a board PTT input becomes
active. If the timer expires, the board will stop transmitting. The main purpose of this timer is to prevent a
failed Remote Controller from locking the radio in transmit.
A value of 0 disables the timer.
It is recommended that this time period be set in excess of the radio personality’s CCT timer value.
8.9.1.2
COR Override
Transmit While COR Active
When the Transmit While COR Active checkbox is checked, the Remote Control (Plus) Board will
transmit while the radio’s COR output is active. A board transmission will have priority over receive
audio. This is particularly desirable on a conventional radio system where it may be necessary to transmit
over an unsquelched receiver.
When the checkbox is not checked, the board will not transmit while the radio’s COR output is active.
Radio receive audio will have priority over a board transmission.

The radio’s Hardware Hookswitch input is actually processed in the radio’s front-mount CH-721 control
head. If the radio inside the CS7000 Control Station does not have a CH-721 control head, for example, a
remote-control-only rack-mount CS7000 Control station, then the CAN Control setting must be used.
8.9.2.2
Radio Control Unit
Control Unit On/Off Switch
The Control Unit On/Off Switch parameter selects how the Remote Control (Plus) Board handles the
control head’s CTRL_ON line on the radio connector. This logic signal is effectively paralleled with the
control head’s power switch. Selections are:
•
Always On:
The board holds the control head’s CTRL_ON line at ground, effectively
forcing the radio always on. Station and radio power are both controlled
only by the station’s AC power switch. This is the default setting.

8.9.3.1
Plus Version
EID
EID is an electronic identification number assigned to the Remote Control (Plus) Board. The board uses
this number to identify itself to the radio via the CAN bus network. This value is assigned at the factory
and it should not be changed unless specifically directed to do so. Changing it may make the board unable
to communicate with the radio.
Software Version
This is the Remote Control (Plus) Board’s software version number. This number is reported to the radio
when the board establishes communications with the radio. It should not be changed unless specifically
directed to do so. Changing it may make the board unable to communicate with the radio.

8.9.3.2
Radio Default Keyboard
Initial Keymap
The Initial Keymap parameter defines which key-map the CS7000 Control Station will use when it
initially powers up. Selections are:
•
ECP Mode:
With this setting, the station uses the ECP key codes and the ECP radio mode for
conventional, EDACS (not available on Unity XG-100M), and P25 functionality.
•
OTP Mode:
With this setting, the station uses the OTP key codes and the OTP radio mode for
OpenSky Trunking Protocol functionality (not available on Unity XG-100M).
This parameter is typically defined by the radio and it is sent to the CS7000 Control Station at power-up
or when the radio changes between ECP and OTP (not available on Unity XG-100M) modes. It provides
some protection from the CS7000 Control Station and the radio being out of sync at power-up, in a case
where the station (i.e., Remote Control (Plus) Board) misses the radio’s key-map defining CAN bus
message.

8.10.1.1 Input Operation
A Remote Control (Plus) Board input can be assigned to set a board “Action.” This Action can then be
assigned to a board output. When the board input is active, the assigned board Action is active. When the
board input is inactive, the assigned board Action is inactive. The active voltage level of an input is a
configurable parameter.
A Remote Control (Plus) Board’s Action can also be configured to generate a radio button function to the
radio over the CAN bus. This configuration is accomplished via the Actions web page. Generally, it is not
desirable to assign an Action to both set a hardware input and to generate a radio button function.
8.10.1.2 Output Operation
A Remote Control (Plus) Board output can be assigned to follow a board “Action.” When the board’s
Action is active, the assigned board output is active. When the board’s Action is inactive, the assigned
board output is inactive. The active voltage level of an output is a configurable parameter.
A Remote Control (Plus) Board’s Action can also be configured to generate a radio button function to the
radio over the CAN bus. This configuration is accomplished via the Actions web page. Generally, it is not
desirable to assign an Action to both set a hardware output and to generate a radio button function.
8.10.1.3 Input/Output Configuration Example
For example, to assign the Remote Control (Plus) Board’s COR Indicator input (the radio’s External
Mute output) to the board’s Auxiliary Output 1:
1. On the CS7000 Input/Output Configuration web page’s Inputs tab, assign the Remote Control (Plus)
Board’s COR Indicator Sets pull-down list to Action 1. See Figure 8-14.
2. On the CS7000 Input/Output Configuration web page’s Outputs tab, assign the Remote Control (Plus)
Board’s Auxiliary Output 1 Will Follow pull-down list to Action 1. See Figure 8-15 on page 72.
68
MM-014714-001, Rev. H
3. Configure the polarity for the COR Indicator input on the Input Levels tab. See Figure 8-16.
4. Configure the polarity for Auxiliary Output 1 on the Output Levels Tab. See Figure 8-17.
With this configuration, when the board’s COR Indicator input is active, the board’s Auxiliary Output 1 is
active. Also, when the board’s COR Indicator input is inactive, the board’s Auxiliary Output 1 is inactive.
8.10.2 Inputs Tab
The CS7000 Input/Output Configuration web page’s Inputs tab is shown in Figure 8-14.

Connector (P3 pin 16). An active Auxiliary PTT will initiate a transmission.
The Auxiliary PTT input can be configured to use or ignore the Front Panel Intercom Switch. For
example, if an external paging terminal is connected to the External I/O Connector, it may be desirable
for the paging terminal to always transmit regardless of the Intercom Switch’s position. If a headset is
connected to the External I/O Connector, it may be desirable for the headset’s PTT to be controlled by the
Intercom Switch’s position.

Aux Mute maps to Auxiliary Mute on the P3 CS7000 Control Station’s External I/O Connector (Pin 22).
Using Aux Mute Is Set By parameter, the Aux Mute can be mapped to:
72
•
– (None):
The CS7000 Control Station will not modify the Auxiliary Mute
Line. This is the default setting.
•
Radio External Mute:
The Auxiliary Mute line’s active state follows the active state of
the radio’s External Mute output (radio connector J3 pin 11.)
The Auxiliary Mute line essentially follows the Remote Control
(Plus) Board’s COR Indicator input.
MM-014714-001, Rev. H
•
Control Station Speaker Mute:
The Auxiliary Mute line’s active state follows the active state of
the CS7000 Control Station’s Mute control. This causes
Auxiliary Mute to be active when the CS7000 Control Station’s
Mute control is active. The CS7000 Control Station’s speaker
may be unmated while the radio is muted. An example of this is
a Remote Control initiated transmission.
•
An Action:
The Auxiliary Mute line will follow an Action assigned by the
Auxiliary Mute Will Follow pull-down list.
Aux Mute Will Follow
The Aux Mute Will Follow setting is grayed out and inactive until the Aux Mute Is Set By pull-down list
is set to "Action". When Aux Mute is set by an Action, the Aux Mute Will Follow pull-down list defines
the Action that the Aux Mute line will follow. When the assigned Action is Active, Aux Mute will be
Active. When the assigned Action is Inactive, Aux Mute will be Inactive.
8.10.3.3 Auxiliary Outputs
Aux Output (n) Will Follow
The Aux Output (n) Will Follow settings each define which Action that an Aux Output line will follow.
When the assigned Action is Active, the Aux Output line will be Active. When the assigned Action is
Inactive, the Aux Output line will be Inactive. The default setting is disabled.
8.10.4 Input Levels Tab
The CS7000 Input/Output Configuration web page’s Inputs Levels tab is shown in Figure 8-16.
Figure 8-16: CS7000 Input/Output Configuration Web Page—Inputs Levels Tab (Example)
The Input Levels tab defines the polarity of CS7000 Control Station’s digital inputs. When set to "Active
High", the input’s state will be Active when the voltage at the input is high. When set to "Active Low",
the input’s state will be Active when the voltage at the input is ground. The default setting is Active Low.
73
MM-014714-001, Rev. H
The CS7000 Control Station’s Front Panel Desk Mic PTT input and the Desk Mic Monitor Switch input
polarity is Active Low and is not configurable.

The CS7000 Input/Output Configuration web page’s Output Levels tab is shown in Figure 8-17.
Figure 8-17: CS7000 Input/Output Configuration Web Page—Outputs Levels Tab (Example)
The Output Levels tab defines the polarity of CS7000 Control Station’s digital outputs. When set to
"Active High", the output’s state will be floating or at a high voltage when the defining Action is Active.
When set to "Active Low" the output’s state will be ground when the defining Action is Active. The
default setting is Active Low.
8.10.6 Auxiliary I/O Example
Configure radio Input INP2 to follow the CS7000 Control Station’s DB25 External I/O Connector
Auxiliary Input 3 input:
1. On the CS7000 Input / Output Web Page Inputs Tab, configure Auxiliary In 3 Sets to "Action 3".
Action 3 will now follow the active state of Auxiliary Input 3.
2. On the CS7000 Input / Output Web Page Outputs Tab, configure Radio Accessory Is Set By to
"Action 3". The CS7000 Control Station’s Radio Accessory output connects to the radio’s INP2
input. The CS7000 Control Station’s Radio Accessory output’s state will not follow Action 3’s state.
3. On the CS7000 Input / Output Web Page Input Levels Tab, configure Auxiliary Input 3 to "Active
Low". When Auxiliary Input 3 is high, Action 3 will be inactive. When Auxiliary Input 3 is low,
Action 3 will be active.
4. On the CS7000 Input / Output Web Page Input Levels Tab, configure Radio Accessory to "Active
Low". When Action 3 is inactive (from Auxiliary Input 3 being high), the CS7000 Control Station’s
Radio Accessory Output (and hence, the radio’s INP2 input) is high. When Action 3 is active (from
74
MM-014714-001, Rev. H
Auxiliary Input 3 being low), the CS7000 Control Station’s Radio Accessory Output (and hence, the
radio’s INP2 input) is low.
8.11 ACTION CONFIGURATION WEB PAGE
The Action Configuration web page is used to assign radio button functions to an “Action.” An “Action”
is a CS7000 Control Station function that does a specific task. An Action can be assigned a state by a
hardware digital input, a remote controller button press, or by the radio. An Action can define the state of
a hardware digital output, a remote controller function, or a radio key press and release.
The page is used to configure radio button functions to an Action. The result of this analogous to a user
pressing and releasing a CH-721 control head button. The configured Action can then be assigned to
CS7000 Control Station inputs and outputs.
Information on the radio button functions functionality is available in the RPM Help functions.
Both a radio button function and a CS7000 Control Station Hardware I/O Input can be assigned to an
Action. If Action 1 is configured on the Input / Output Web Page to follow the COR Indicator input,
Action 1 will be assigned "-" (disabled) on the web page. It is then possible, though not desirable, to
assign a radio function to Action 1.
8.11.1 Remote Controller Button and CH-721 Control Head Button Differences
8.11.1.1 Monitor / Clear (CH-721 CLR Button)
The Monitor / Clear function, is a true momentary button on the CH-721 control head. On the CH-721
control head, the button’s function is active while the button is held down and goes inactive when the
button is released.
In the CS7000 Control Station’s Remote Control System, the Monitor / Clear function is a toggle
function. If the function is inactive, a remote controller button press and release will make the function
active. If the function is active, a remote controller button press and release will make the function
inactive.
One effect of this is that Monitor / Clear functionality where the CLR button is treated as a key press and
a key release, such as dropping an EDACS Group Call, requires two distinct button presses of a CS7000
Control Station’s Remote Control System Remote Controller button.
On a Conventional Channel, pressing and holding Monitor / Clear active for over about two seconds will
permanently toggle the Channel Guard Decode function if the channel is programmed with Receive
Channel Guard. When this occurs, a Remote Controller user will have no indication that the channel’s
Channel Guard function has been changed.
8.11.1.2 Emergency (CH-721 EMGR Button)
On the CH-721 control head, a user typically has to hold the Emergency Button down for an extended
period of time to declare an Emergency and must simultaneously press the CLR and Emergency Buttons
to clear an Emergency.
Emergency functionality is implemented in two ways in the CS7000 Control Station. First, there can be a
momentary Set Emergency button that declares an Emergency and another momentary Clear Emergency
button that clears an Emergency.
Secondly, Emergency can be set up on the CS7000 Control Station to be an On/Off toggle function.
When there is no active Emergency, pressing the CS7000 Control Station’s Remote Controller
75
MM-014714-001, Rev. H
Emergency Button will declare an Emergency. When there is an active Emergency, pressing the CS7000
Control Station’s Remote Controller Emergency Button will clear the Emergency.
A disadvantage of the second method is that the CS7000 Control Station does not have knowledge of
other devices declaring an Emergency. It is possible for the CS7000 Control Station to get out of sync
with the radio. Another device clearing an Emergency may leave the CS7000 Control Station still in an
active Emergency Stage while the radio is not in an Emergency state. Likewise, a remote controller user
may not know the CS7000 Control Station is in an active Emergency state if the emergency was declared
by another device.
An Action can be an On / Off Action or a Momentary Action. These are explained in the following
sections.

and another key press and release is then necessary to turn Scan off. On/Off Actions can be configured for
the radio functions side-listed in Figure 8-18.

causes the radio to change its Selected System and Group to the last selected SG Key mapped system and
group. Momentary Actions can be configured for the radio functions side-listed in Figure 8-19.
8.11.4 Using the ECP Radio’s Macro Key Functions to Extend Remote Control
(Plus) Board Action Functionality
Currently, a CS7000 Control Station Action generates an ECP radio key press and key release radio
action. However, there are useful radio functions that do not follow this pattern.
An example involves the radio’s Emergency Button. In a mobile radio environment, it is desired to
depress the Emergency Button for a programmed period of time before the radio considers the function
active. If the radio sees a button release before this timer expires, the function is considered inactive and
the radio does not declare an emergency. See Figure 8-20.
An ECP radio’s MACRO Key Functions can be used to implement the above functionality that is not
readily available with a Control Station Action. In this case, the CS7000 Control Station key press and
key release can be used to initiate a MACRO function then provides the necessary delay between the
Emergency button press and release.

When Two-Wire is selected, the Remote Control (Plus) Board’s Tone Remote Control Line Out is
connected to RJ-11 Telephone Line Connector J11’s inner pair (pins 3 and 4) and the Remote Control
(Plus) Board’s Tone Remote Control Line In is also connected to RJ-11 Telephone Line Connector J11’s
inner pair (pins 3 and 4). The Line Out Line Driver is only enabled when the Remote Control (Plus)
Board is sending audio to the Tone Remote Controllers. The Audio Matrix’s "Audio From The Tone
Remotes" Audio Input to the "Audio To The Tone Remotes" Audio Output path is disabled to prevent a
positive feedback loop.
When Four Wire is selected, the Remote Control (Plus) Board’s Tone Remote Control Line Out is
connected to RJ-11 Telephone Line Connector J11’s inner pair (pins 3 and 4) and the Remote Control
(Plus) Board’s Tone Remote Control Line In is connected to RJ-11 Telephone Line Connector J11’s
middle pair (pins 2 and 5). The Line Out Line Driver is always enabled. The Audio Matrix’s "Audio
From The Tone Remotes" Audio Input to the "Audio To The Tone Remotes" Audio Output path is
enabled by default to support Tone Remote To Tone Remote Intercom Audio.
8.12.1.3 Tone Mode
The Tone Mode selections control Tone Remote Control Function Tone options. These selections define
the Function Tones that are available for mapping to Remote Control (Plus) Board Actions in the
"Function Tone" screens.
Select Tone Mode
The Select Tone Mode pull-down list defines the maximum number of Function Tones that are allowed in
a Tone Remote Control function. The options are:
•
Single Tone:
•

Tone after receiving a Guard Tone. The Function Tone To Remote Control (Plus) Board Action Mapping
79
MM-014714-001, Rev. H
Configuration screens will only allow configuring a Remote Control (Plus) Board Action to one Function
Tone.
When set to Dual Tone, the Remote Control (Plus) Board will attempt to decode two Function Tones after
receiving a Guard Tone. The Function Tone To Remote Control (Plus) Board Action Mapping
Configuration screens will only allow configuring a Remote Control (Plus) Board Action to two Function
Tones.
Extended Tone Mode
The Extended Tone Mode configures the number of available Function Tone Frequencies. Settings are:
•
Standard Tones
•
Extended Tones:
This is the default setting.
When set to "Standard Tones", only the eleven traditional Tone Remote Control Function Tone
frequencies from 1050 Hz through 2050 Hz inclusive (in 100 Hz steps) are decoded.
When set to "Extended Tones", an additional five Function Tone Frequencies from 550 Hz to 950 Hz
inclusive (in 100 Hz steps) are allowed.
Remote Control (Plus) Board Actions can only be mapped to valid Function Tone frequencies. If the
Extended Tone Mode parameter is set to "Standard Tones", a Remote Control (Plus) Board Action can
not be mapped to a sub 1050 Hz Function Tone.

8.12.2.1 Guard Tone Detect
Guard Tone, also called "Secur-it Tone", is the high-level (10 dB above Voice Level) period of 2175 Hz
tone that initiates a Tone Remote Control sequence. The Remote Control (Plus) Board allows timing to
be configured on both encode and decode.
Guard Tone Encode
The Guard Tone Encode parameter is the time in milliseconds that the Remote Control (Plus) Board will
encode high-level 2175 Hz Guard Tone during a Remote Control (Plus) Board originated Tone Remote
Control sequence. The default period is 125 milliseconds.
Guard Tone Decode
The Guard Tone Decode parameter is the time in milliseconds that the Remote Control (Plus) Board will
require high-level 2175 Hz Guard Tone to be present during a Tone Remote Controller originated Tone
Remote Control sequence before the Remote Control (Plus) Board considers the Guard Tone valid. The
default period is 100 milliseconds.
8.12.2.2 Remote Updates
The Remote Control (Plus) Board supports two methods of providing status information from the CS7000
Control Station to the Tone Remote Control Remote Controllers. Each method is selected by a checkbox.
When neither checkbox is checked, there is no Tone Remote Control Remote Updating.
The default setting is No Tone Remote Control Remote Updating. Both checkboxes will default to
unchecked.
Sequential Tone Update
The first method, Sequential Tone Update, basically repeats any incoming Tone Remote Control
sequence. The Remote Control (Plus) Board also generates a Tone Remote Control Sequence when an
Action mapped to a Tone Remote Control Function Tone changes.
When the Sequential Tone Update checkbox is checked, this method of Tone Remote Control updates is
enabled.
IDA 2175 Update
The second method, IDA 2175 Update, sends a on/off 2175 Hz Tone to send a one/zero serial word to the
Tone Remote Controllers.
When the IDA 2175 Update checkbox is checked, this method of Tone Remote Control updates is
enabled.

8.12.3 Tone Levels Tab
The Remote Configuration web page’s Tone Levels tab is shown in Figure 8-23.
Figure 8-23: Remote Configuration Web Page—Tone Levels Tab (Example)
The Tone Levels tab is used to adjust the gain in the Tone Remote Control Line In and Line Out paths.
The gain control ranges from 1 through 254. Higher gain values result in higher levels.
8.12.3.1 Tone Input Levels
Line Input Level
The Line Input Level Gain Control adjusts the gain of Line In Op Amp U43A. The output of Line In Op
Amp U43A basically feeds the incoming side of the Tone Remote Control System. This can include the
Compressor Circuitry, the Receive 2175 Hz Notch Filter before the Audio Matrix Input, the Hardware
2175 Hz Tone Detector, and the MX 803 Tone Remote Control Audio Processor Circuitry.
Line In Op Amp U43A is meant to compensate for telephone line losses that result in a less than 0 dBm
Voice Level at the CS7000’s J11 RJ-11 Telephone Line Connector.
The Line Input Level Gain Control should be adjusted for 300 mV rms at 1000 Hz at TP93.
2175 Detect Level
The Hardware 2175 Detect Level Gain Control adjusts the gain of Op Amp U48A, an input buffer into
the Hardware 2175 Hz Tone Detector circuitry. The Hardware 2175 Detect Level Gain Control should be
adjusted for reliable decoding of the Tone Remote Control Guard and Keying Tones.
Hardware 2175 Hz Tone Detector Op Amp U48A is in series with Line In Op Amp U43A. The gain
adjustment of U43A then directly affects the gain adjustment of U48A. The Hardware 2175 Detect Level
Gain Control should be set after the Line Input Level Gain Control gain is set.
82
MM-014714-001, Rev. H
The 2175 Detect Level Gain Control should be adjusted for reliable transmit operation when there is
voice audio on the line.
8.12.3.2 Tone Output Levels
The Telephone Line’s Line Out path includes Audio Summing Op Amp U42A. Three (3) sources feed
U42A: The Rx Audio Source to the Tone Remote Controllers from the Audio Matrix (through the
Transmit 2175 Hz Notch Filter), the Line In to Line Out Four Wire Audio Intercom Loopback path, and
the output of the MX-803 Tone Remote Control Audio Processor Circuitry.
Guard Output Level
The 2175 Guard Tone Level Gain Control adjusts the audio level out of the MX-803 Tone Remote
Control Audio Processor when the MX-803 is encoding Guard Tone or Hold (Keying) Tone.
The 2175 Hz Hold Tone Level is fixed at three percent (- 30dB) of the Guard Tone level.
The 2175 Detect Level Gain Control should be adjusted for desired Guard Tone Output Level at the J11
RJ-11 Connector. The maximum supported Line Out Level is +11 dBm into 600 Ohms.
Rx Audio Line Level
The Rx Audio Line Level Gain Control adjusts the Line Out level from the Tone Remote Control Audio
Matrix Output.
The Rx Audio Line Level Gain Control should be adjusted for the desired Voice Audio Line Out Level at
the J11 RJ-11 Telephone Line Connector. This is typically thirty three percent (-10 dB) of the Guard
Tone Level.
4-Wire Intercom Level
The 4-Wire Intercom Level Gain Control adjusts the Line Out level from the Four Wire Audio Intercom
Loopback path. This path connects Line In audio to Line Out.
The Four Wire Audio Intercom Loopback path is affected by the Line Input Level Gain Control on Line
In Op Amp U43A. The 4-Wire Intercom Level Gain Control should be set after the Line Input Level
Gain Control gain is set.
The 4-Wire Intercom Level Gain Control should be adjusted for the desired Voice Audio Line Out Level
at the J11 RJ-11 Telephone Line Connector with nominal Voice Audio Line In level incoming audio.
The Four Wire Audio Intercom Loopback path can be enabled or disabled by the Disable checkbox
adjacent to the Four Wire Intercom Level control. When checked, the Four Wire Audio Intercom
Loopback path is enabled and Line In audio will be played on Line Out. When unchecked, the Four Wire
Audio Intercom Loopback path is disabled and Line In audio will not be played on Line Out. The Four
Wire Audio Intercom Level control is not accessible when the Disable checkbox is checked.
The desired Four Wire Audio Intercom Loopback Disable setting is dependent upon the application. In a
hardwired Tone Remote Control application, it is desirable for paralleled remote controllers to hear the
active tone remote controller’s audio, not to mention its Tone Control Sequences. In this situation, the
checkbox should be unchecked.
In an Interoperability application, the CS7000 Control Station will typically be connecting a RF radio
channel (or trunked system and group) to switch or multiplexer (mux) equipment. In this application, it is
usually desired to keep the Four Wire Audio Interface’s LINE IN and LINE OUT audio isolated. This is
especially the case where there may be a noticeable delay through the switch or mux equipment. This
delay could appear as an undesirable echo to users at the destination end of the switch or mux equipment.
In this situation, the checkbox should be checked.
83
MM-014714-001, Rev. H
Line In can be connected to Line Out in the Audio Matrix. However, the Line In input to the Audio
Matrix is after the 2175 Hz Notch Filter. Consequently, the Audio Matrix will not properly repeat an
incoming Tone Remote Control Tone Sequence. If it is desired for paralleled Tone Remote Controllers to
hear and act upon Tone Remote Control Tone Sequences, then the 4 Wire Intercom path must be enabled.
Function Output Level
The Function Output Level Gain Control adjusts the Line Out level from the MX-803 Tone Remote
Control Audio Processor when the MX-803 is encoding Function Tone.
The Function Output Level should be adjusted for thirty three percent (-10 dB) of the Guard Tone level.
8.13 REMOTE CONFIGURATION WEB PAGE: TRC FUNCTION TONE
CONFIGURATIONS
The Function Tone web page is opened by clicking the link underneath the Remotes button. The web
page has two tabs. One tab (Set Tone Function) configures function tones that the Remote Control (Plus)
Board will decode and assigns Remote Control (Plus) Board Actions to those function tones. The second
tab (Enabled Tone Functions) displays a table of already configured function tones.
8.13.1 Available Function Tone Frequencies
Available Function Tone Frequencies depends on the setting of the Remotes web page’s Tone / VoIP
Tab’s Extended Tone Mode setting. If "Standard" Tone Frequencies are selected, there are eleven
Function Tone Frequencies. If "Extended" Tone Frequencies are selected, there are sixteen Function
Tone Frequencies. The available Function Tone Frequencies are:
2050 Hz
1950 Hz
1850 Hz
1750 Hz
1650 Hz
1550 Hz
1450 Hz
1350 Hz
1250 Hz
1150 Hz
1050 Hz
950 Hz
850 Hz
750 Hz
650 Hz
550 Hz
Function Tone frequencies between 550 Hz and 950 Hz (inclusive) require the Extended Tone Mode
setting on the Remotes Web Page’s Tone / VoIP Tab set to "Extended Tones". If set to "Standard Tones,"
these function tones cannot be assigned.
8.13.1.1 Single Function Tone Operation
If the Remotes web page’s Tone / VoIP Tab’s Select Tone Mode setting is set to "Single Tone", a Tone
Remote Control tone sequence’s Guard Tone is expected to be followed by a single forty millisecond
Function Tone.
Both "Standard" and "Extended" Function Tone Frequencies are available depending on the setting of the
Remotes Web Page’s Tone / VoIP Tab’s Extended Tone Mode setting.
8.13.1.2 Dual Function Tone Operation
If the Remotes web page Tone / VoIP Tab’s Select Tone Mode setting is set to "Dual Tone", a Tone
Remote Control tone sequence’s Guard Tone is expected to be followed by one or two 40-millisecond
Function Tones.
"No Second Function Tone" is a valid second Function Tone frequency.
The first and second function tones can be the same frequency.
84
MM-014714-001, Rev. H
The Web Page is set up to allow up to 150 distinct Function Tone combination functions Note this is well
in excess of the number of possible assignable Actions and SG keys. Any valid Function Tone frequency
can be used in these functions, depending upon the setting of the Remotes Web Page’s Tone / VoIP Tab’s
Extended Tone Mode setting.
If a Function Tone combination’s frequencies are duplicated, the resultant Action is the last enabled
Action for that Function Tone frequency combination.
8.13.1.3 Single Function Tone Operation in When Configured for Dual Function
Tones
The Function Tone of a non-transmit single Function Tone Tone Control Sequence will be interpreted as
the first Function Tone. The quiet line during the second function tone period will be interpreted as the
"No Second Function Tone" function tone frequency.
However, Keying Tone within the second Function Tone period is not interpreted as "No Second
Function Tone". Consequently, a transmit single Function Tone Tone Control Sequence will be treated as
invalid and will not initiate a transmission.

8.13.2.1 Function Tones
The Set Tone Function tab is used to assign a Tone Remote Control Function Tone (or Tones) to a
Remote Control (Plus) Board Action. The procedure to do so is:
1. Define the desired Function Tone Frequency. Begin by assigning the "Tone 1" frequency in the
Tones box on the left side of the page.
85
MM-014714-001, Rev. H
•
Tone 2 will normally be grayed out and not accessible.
•
If the Select Tone Mode setting on the Remotes Web Page’s Tone / VoIP Tab is set to "Dual
Tone", the Tone 2 setting will become available after the Tone 1 Function Tone frequency is
assigned. A second Function Tone frequency must then be assigned. It is acceptable to
assign Tone 2 to the same Function Tone frequency as Tone 1.
•
If the Select Tone Mode setting on the Remotes Web Page’s Tone / VoIP Tab is set to
"Single Tone", the Tone 2 box will always be inaccessible.
•
The choice of Function Tone frequencies will be controlled by the Extended Tone Mode
setting on the Remotes Web Page’s Tone / VoIP Tab.
2. Assign the Remote Control (Plus) Board Action for the desired Function Tone (or Tones) in the
Function box on the right side of the screen. The options are:
•
Disabled (-) (Default)
•
On / Off Action On
•
On / Off Action Off
•
Momentary Action
•
SG Keys
A Remote Control (Plus) Board On / Off Action requires one Function Tone frequency to turn the
Action "On" and another, different, Function Tone frequency to turn the Action Off. Momentary
Actions and SG Keys use one Function Tone frequency.
3. After the Function Tone frequency (ies) and the Remote Control (Plus) Board Action have been
assigned, click the "Enable Tone" button. The Remote Control (Plus) Board will now initiate the
Function Tone’s assigned Action when a Tone Control Sequence containing the assigned Function
Tone (s) is decoded.
4. Clicking the "Disabled Tone" Button with a Function Tone frequency defined in the left hand Tones
box will clear all entries in the Set Tone Function Tab. Further, an already assigned Function Tone
Frequency to Remote Control (Plus) Board Action for that Function Tone Frequency will also be
removed when the "Disabled Tone" Button is clicked.
If an Action has been assigned a function on the Actions Web Page, then the assigned function for that
action will be displayed in the list of mappable Actions. For example, if the Hookswitch function was
assigned to Action 13, then the Action 13 entry in the list of mappable Actions will display
"Hookswitch". If Action 13 is not currently assigned, the Action 13 entry in the list of map able Actions
will display "Action 13".
The CS7000 Control Station’s Hookswitch Action’s On/Off active state is opposite to the physical state
of the Remote Controller’s Hookswitch. If it is desired for the Hookswitch Action to be active when the
Tone Remote Controller’s hand set is physically "Off Hook", then the Off Hook Function Tone must be
set to "Hookswitch On" and the On Hook Function Tone must be set to "Hookswitch Off".
For example, if a remote controller generates a 2050 Hz Function Tone when its handset physically
comes off hook, then the CS7000 Control Station’s 2050 Hz Function Tone should be configured to
"Hookswitch On". Likewise, if a remote controller generates a 550 Hz Function Tone when its handset
physically goes back on hook, then the CS7000 Control Station’s 550 Hz Function Tone should be
configured to "Hookswitch Off".

8.13.3 Enabled Tone Functions Tab
The Remote Configuration web page’s Enabled Tone Functions tab is shown in Figure 8-25.
Figure 8-25: Remote Configuration Web Page—Enabled Tone Functions Tab (Example)
The Enabled Tone Functions tab displays a table of currently assigned Function Tone Frequency to
Remote Control (Plus) Board Action assignments. The tab also provides provisions for modifying an
entry. These are described as follows:
8.13.3.1 Edit Button
Clicking the Edit button will open the Set Tone Function Tab with the table entry’s information entered
into the proper Set Tone Function Tab’s fields.
8.13.3.2 Disable Button
Clicking the Disable button removes the table entry from the Remote Control (Plus) Board’s list of
Function Tone Frequency to Remote Control (Plus) Board Action assignments.
8.13.3.3 Action Menu Item
Clicking an entry’s Action menu item allows reassignment of a Remote Control (Plus) Board Action to
the table entry’s Function Tone Frequency.

8.14 REMOTE CONFIGURATION WEB PAGE: VOIP REMOTE CONTROL
SETTINGS
The Remote Configuration web page is used to configure the CS7000 Control Station’s VoIP Remote
Control System parameters. Sub-pages allow configuration of network parameters, audio parameters, and
the CS7000 Control Station’s I/O parameters.
Most of a VoIP Remote Controller’s personality is stored within the CS7000 Control Station. This
includes keypad information, audio information, and Alert Tone information. The personality is
transferred to the VoIP Remote Controller when the VoIP Remote Controller first connects with a
CS7000 Control Station.
8.14.1 Tone/VoIP Tab
The Remote Configuration web page’s Tone/VoIP tab is shown in Figure 8-26.

8.14.3 VoIP Audio Tab
The Remote Configuration web page’s VoIP Audio tab is shown in Figure 8-28.
Figure 8-28: Remote Configuration Web Page—VoIP Audio Tab (Example)
8.14.3.1 Audio Transport Settings
Multicast and Unicast
The CS7000 Control Station supports two methods of audio distribution on an IP-based network. The first
method is multicast, which is the preferred method of audio distribution. The second is unicast.
Multicast is an extension to UDP/IP. When enabled, the VoIP Remote Controllers and CS7000 Control
Station broadcast data packets that have multiple recipients. This is an ideal model for radio
communications when multiple people need to monitor the audio. Since any enabled VoIP Remote
Controllers can receive the multicast packets, all VoIP Remote Controllers that are monitoring the audio
can receive and decode the packets for playback.
In addition to simplifying monitoring of audio traffic by multiple VoIP Remote Controllers, multicast also
greatly cuts the bandwidth requirement on the network. Instead of having to regenerate the received
audio into a unicast UDP/IP data stream to each individual VoIP Remote Controllers, which would use
additional bandwidth multiplied by the number of monitoring VoIP Remote Controllers, a single data
stream is generated and monitored by all VoIP Remote Controllers.
Multicast allows audio distribution over a large network while minimizing the consumed bandwidth. On a
multicast enabled network, a multicast sender sends a single multicast packet to the multicast address and
the routers forward that packet (with replication as needed) to all multicast receivers. This is the least
bandwidth intensive form of media distribution possible. However, multicast is newer technology and
individual network support may be questionable.
The unicast option is a combination of multicast and unicast. When unicast is enabled, unicast is used
send audio to all VoIP Remote Controllers that are operating in unicast mode. However, multicast is still
used for audio distribution to the local network. For each VoIP Remote Controller that is operating in
unicast mode, a unique packet must be sent directly to the VoIP Remote Controller. Thus, each additional
90
MM-014714-001, Rev. H
VoIP Remote Controller will require one packet’s worth of additional bandwidth. To minimize
bandwidth, a feature has been added to the VoIP Remote Controllers that will allow a single unicast
transmission per remote LAN to that VoIP Remote Controller. That VoIP Remote Controllers will then
send multicast packets to other VoIP Remote Controllers on its local network.
The multicast and unicast parameters are controlled by a pull-down list with enable and disable selections.
By default, multicast is enabled and the unicast is disabled. Currently, multicast cannot be disabled.
8.14.3.2 Multicast Audio Configuration
Multicast Address
The Multicast Address parameter is a specific type of reserved IP address and must be of the correct
scope and type for the desired distribution method. It is recommended that the factory default multicast IP
address not be changed. This address is 239.255.0.1.
Multicast packets are defined to be all packets with a destination address of between 224.0.0.0 and
239.255.255.255. Some are commonly used for Internet broadcast audio and are not necessarily available.
When a 24-66 VoIP and Control Station opens a UDP/IP port within this address range, it will also join
the group. By joining the group, a packet is sent out to all addresses saying that it is interested in seeing
the traffic on this particular multicast address. Routers that receive this broadcast message to join a
particular multicast address will then pass packets through because the router is now aware that a listener
is interested in this traffic.
The routers utilized in the network must support this. The protocol used to alert routers to parties who are
interested in certain multicast address traffic is IGMP or Internet Group Management Protocol.
The multicast IP address is specified by entering the desired decimal numbers between 0 and 255 in each
of the four multicast IP address text boxes.
Multicast/Audio Receive Port
The Multicast/Audio Receive Port parameter sets the port used to pass all multicast audio between the
CS7000 Control Station and the VoIP Remote Controllers in Multicast mode. This port must be opened
bi-directionally in any firewall or routers that exist between the CS7000 Control Station and the VoIP
Remote Controllers. The port is defined by entering a decimal number between 0 and 65534 in the
Multicast/Audio Receive Port text box. The default setting is 12100.
Time To Live (Hops)
The Time To Live (Hops) parameter sets the timeout period for multicast packets. Due to the nature of
multicast distribution, it is possible to send packets to a network that has no active multicast receivers to
remove the packet from the network. Time To Live ensures that multicast packets will eventually be
removed from the network by allowing the packets to expire after a certain number of "hops," whose
number is hopefully in excess of any VoIP Remote Controllers interested in receiving the audio packets.
The Time To Live (Hops) parameter is defined by entering a decimal number in the Time To Live (Hops)
Text Box. The default setting is "1". It may be necessary to raise this setting for large networks.
8.14.4 Unicast Network Identification
Unicast Network Parameter Configuration web pages become visible when the Enable Unicast option is
enabled and are invisible when the Enable Unicast option is disabled.
91
MM-014714-001, Rev. H
8.14.4.1 Unicast IP Address
The Unicast IP Address parameter sets the IP address that the CS7000 Control Station will use to send
and receive VoIP audio packets from/to a VoIP Remote Controller.
The Unicast IP Address is specified by entering the desired decimal numbers between 0 and 255 in each
of the four Multicast IP Address text boxes. The default value is the CS7000 Control Station’s IP address.
8.14.4.2 Unicast Port
The Unicast Port parameter sets the port used to pass all unicast audio between the CS7000 Control
Station and the VoIP Remote Controllers that are in unicast mode. This port must be opened bidirectionally in any firewall or routers that exist between the station and the IDA 24-66 VoIP Remote
Controllers.
The Unicast Port is defined by entering a decimal number between 0 and 65534 in the Unicast Port text
box. The default setting is 12101.
8.14.4.3 Time To Live (Hops)
Time To Live (Hops) parameter sets the timeout period for unicast packets. Due to the nature of unicast
distribution, it is possible to send packets to a network that has no active unicast receivers to remove the
packet from the network. Time To Live ensures that these packets will eventually be removed from the
network by allowing the packets to expires after a certain number of "hops", whose number is hopefully
in excess of any VoIP Remote Controllers interested in receiving the packets.
The Time To Live (Hops) parameter is defined by entering a decimal number in the Time To Live (Hops)
text box. The default setting is 1. It may be necessary to raise this setting for large networks.
8.14.5 DSP Tab
The Remote Configuration web page’s DSP tab is shown in Figure 8-28.
Available Codecs:
Figure 8-29: Remote Configuration Web Page—DSP Tab (Example)
92
MM-014714-001, Rev. H
8.14.5.1 DSP Codec Settings
Codec
The Codec parameter sets the voice-coder (vocoder) method used by the DSP to process audio. A wide
range of codecs are available for selection via the respective pull-down list. Available codecs are
indicated in the side-list shown in Figure 8-29. These codecs provide a wide range of vocoder quality.
G.723 6.3 kbps is the default setting for the Codec parameter. Codecs with a higher kbps rating will
consume more bandwidth than those with a lower.
Usage of the G.723.1 6.3 kbps codec is recommended. This codec provides excellent reproduction of
voice with minimal usage of bandwidth.
VAD/CNG
The VAD/CNG parameter is an additional DSP codec option designed for additional audio control. Use
of this option is not recommended. The parameter is enabled and disabled via a checkbox. The default
option is disabled (not checked).
PLC
The PLC parameter is a DSP processing option. As of the publication of this manual, enabling PLC will
not benefit CS7000 Control Station operation. The parameter is enabled and disabled via a checkbox. The
default option is disabled (not checked).
8.14.5.2 DSP Applied Gains
To Network Calibration Gain
The To Network Calibration Gain parameter sets a DSP applied gain (in dB). This gain increases the level
of the audio passed to the link. Applying gain at this point can result in audio degradation at high levels,
but allows much finer gain control than the radio Rx Audio Output Gain control.
This parameter’s setting is controlled by a pull-down list containing “Default” and values from +10 dB to
-48 dB in 2 dB increments. The default setting is 0 dB.
From Network Calibration Gain
The From Network Calibration Gain parameter sets a DSP applied gain (in dB). This gain increases the
level of the audio received from the link. Applying gain at this point can result in audio degradation at
high levels, but allows much finer gain control than the radio Tx Audio Output Gain control.
The parameter’s setting is controlled by a pull-down list containing “Default” and values from +10 dB to
-48 dB in 2 dB increments. The default setting is 0 dB.
To Network AGC Level and Enable AGC
If enabled via the Enable AGC checkbox, the To Network AGC Level parameter sets an Automatic Gain
Control (AGC) level for digitized audio being passed to the network. This AGC is a DSP-applied
normalization that ensures the volume of all audio passed to the network is equal volume. Overly weak or
strong signals will exceed the DSP normalization abilities and will result in distortion, clipping, and
feedback.
The To Network AGC Level parameter is controlled by the Enable AGC checkbox next to it. The default
setting is disabled (unchecked).
To Network AGC Level is the level to which all audio from the DSP to the network will be normalized.
This option will attenuate or amplify all signals as needed to ensure that all output audio is of
approximately the same volume before it is passed to the network.
93
MM-014714-001, Rev. H
The To Network AGC Level parameter is controlled by a pull-down list containing “Default” and values
from 0 dB to -30 dB. The default setting is 0 dB.
8.15 VOIP CHANNELS WEB PAGE
The VoIP Channels web page is shown in Figure 8-30. This page is accessible when the operating mode
is set to VoIP via the respective parameter in the Remote Configuration web page’s Tone/VoIP tab.
Figure 8-30: VoIP Channels Web Page—SG Key Configuration (Example)
8.15.1 SG Key Configuration
8.15.1.1 Name
Text entered into an SG Key’s Name text box is the text that will be written to the top line of the
respective VoIP Remote Controller’s display when the CS7000’s selected system and group is the SG
Key’s assigned system and group.
An SG Key Name can use any alphanumeric characters, and it can be up to sixteen (16) characters in
length. The text box functions with the Windows clipboard.
8.15.1.2 Enabled In Profile
An Enabled In Profile checkbox defines whether or not a channel is available for use in the respective
VoIP Remote Controller Profile. If the checkbox is not checked within a VoIP Remote Controller’s
Profile, the VoIP Remote Controller will not have access to CS7000 Control Station’s radio when the
CS7000 Control Station’s Selected System and Group is the SG Key System and Group. The VoIP
Remote Controller’s top line display will show “Disabled” when the CS7000 Control Station’s Selected
System and Group is the unchecked SG Key System and Group.
Checking the All checkbox enables that SG Key in all eight (8) Profiles.
94
MM-014714-001, Rev. H
8.16 PROFILE WEB PAGES: VOIP REMOTE CONTROLLER
A “Profile” defines the configuration for a VoIP Remote Controller. A VoIP Remote Controller’s Profile
is stored in the CS7000 Control Station and it transfers to the VoIP Remote Controller when the VoIP
Remote Controller connects to the CS7000 Control Station.
A Profile defines a VoIP Remote Controller’s accessible SG Key Systems and Groups, the VoIP Remote
Controller’s keypad, VoIP Remote Controller-generated Alert Tones, and the VoIP Remote Controller’s
I/O functionality.
The CS7000 Control Station supports up to eight individual Profiles. One of the few configuration
parameters stored locally on a VoIP Remote Controller is the Profile used when it connects to the CS7000
Control Station.

8.16.1.1 Profile (n) Keypad Buttons
A VoIP Remote Controller can be configured to any of the CS7000 Control Station’s Actions. A VoIP
Remote Controller’s keypad button is configured by assigning a pull-down list to the desired VoIP
Remote Controller keypad button.
If an Action has been assigned a function on the Actions Web Page, then the assigned function for that
Action will be displayed on the keypad button’s list of mappable Actions. For example, if the
Hookswitch function is assigned to Action 13, then the Action 13 entry in the keypad button’s list of
Actions will display "Hookswitch". If Action 13 is not currently assigned, the Action 13 entry in the
keypad button’s list of Actions will display "Action 13."
A VoIP Remote Controller keypad button can be assigned an Action that is assigned to a hardware input
function. When this is done, the VoIP Remote Controller keypad button’s LED will be on when the
Action is Active and off if the Action is inactive. For example, it an Action assigned to a VoIP Remote
Controller keypad button follows the radio’s Tx Indicator output, the keypad button’s LED will be on
when the radio is transmitting on a Voice Channel and off when the radio is not transmitting on a Voice
Channel. This button is not disabled and when pressed, will toggle the active state of the Action.
Likewise, a VoIP Remote Controller keypad button can be assigned to an Action that is assigned to a
hardware output. In this case, the VoIP Remote Controller keypad button will toggle the active state of
the Action’s assigned hardware output. For example, this allows a VoIP Remote Controller keypad
button to control External I/O Connector Auxiliary Output 1.
In addition to the Remote Control (Plus) Board Actions, a VoIP Remote Controller’s keypad button can
be configured to a VoIP Remote Controller specific Action. Buttons unique to the VoIP Controllers are
shaded in green in the above Keyboard Button Actions table. Buttons unique to the IDA VoIP Mini
Console are shaded in yellow in the above Keyboard Button Actions table.
VoIP Remote Controller Specific Buttons
Alert
Alert generates a PTT request and once access is granted
outputs a tone to both the radio and the Remotes. The output
level of the generated tone can be adjusted in the Remote
audio settings.
Clock
The Clock button allows the user to set the internal time of
the Remote. Pressing and holding the button will bring up
the time set menu and increment the displayed time. Once
the time is correct, simply release the button to set the time.
Home #1, Home #2, ... , Home #8
Home provides similar functionality to a radio’s Home
Channel button. Using the Home button, the radio can be set
to the button’s programmed SG Key System and Group
with a single button press.
Intercom
Intercom is an On/Off button that will enable Intercom
mode in place of standard PTT. When a PTT occurs with
Intercom active, the audio is still sent to all active Remotes,
but the radio is not placed into transmit mode. Thus, the
audio will not be sent over the air. Intercom allows
communication between the Remotes without occupying the
96
currently selected frequency. Leaving the Intercom button
active will prevent communication with the tower as the
Remote will be unable to transmit.
Internal Mic PTT
Internal Mic PTT performs a PTT with the Remote’s
internal mic as its audio source. Unlike the other VoIP
Remote Controller buttons, the Internal PTT Action will
remain active as long as the button is held.
Mntary Intercom
Mntary Intercom will enable Intercom for a single PTT. To
do this, the Mntary Intercom button is pressed and held. The
user then PTTs and the Remote will enter Intercom instead
of performing a standard PTT. Once the PTT has gained
transmit access (success tone), the Mntary Intercom button
can be released and the Intercom mode will remain active
for the entire transmission. However, as soon as the
transmission ends, the Remote will exit Intercom mode. If
the user wishes to use the Intercom again, all listed steps
will have to be repeated.
Mntary Mute
Mntary Mute will attenuate the audio sent to the internal
speaker by the amount indicated in the Remote audio
settings as long as the button is held. As soon as the button
is released, the audio settings will be restored to their levels.
MM-014714-001, Rev. H
If the "MAX" setting is used, the speaker will be turned off
rather than attenuated.
Mntary Speaker
Mntary Speaker will enable the internal speaker while the
handset is off hook. When the handset is returned to the
cradle, Mntary Speaker will turn off.
Mute
Mute is an On/Off button that will attenuate the audio sent
to the internal speaker by the amount indicated in the
Remote audio settings. If the "MAX" setting is used, the
speaker will be turned off rather than attenuated.
No Function
When no valid selection exists, "No Function" is displayed.
If this selection is used in a profile, the result will be a nonfunctional button. This is the default setting for the VoIP
Remote Controller buttons.
SG Key Down
SG Key Down will decrement to the next available radio SG
Key System and Group (with wraparound). If the button is
held, the available SG Key System and Group will begin
scrolling. Releasing the button will select the currently
displayed SG Key System and Group. If no other SG Key
System and Groups besides the current SG Key System and
Group are defined, the currently selected SG Key System
and Group will not be changed.
SG Key Up
SG Key Up will increment to the next available SG Key
System and Group (with wraparound). If the button is held,
the available SG Key System and Groups will begin
scrolling. Releasing the button will select the currently
displayed SG Key System and Group. If no other SG Key
System and Group besides the current SG Key System and
Group are defined, the currently selected SG Key System
and Group will not be changed.
Speaker
Speaker enables the internal speaker while the handset is off
hook. This is an On/Off operation and will remain active
until the button is pressed again.
Timed Mute
Timed Mute will attenuate the audio sent to the internal
speaker by the amount indicated in the Remote audio
settings for the time period indicated in the miscellaneous
section of the panel profile. Once the time has expired, the
audio will be restored to prior levels. If the "MAX" setting
is used for the mute attenuation level, the speaker will be
turned off rather than attenuated.
IDA VoIP Mini Console Buttons
Sel Mntary Mute
Sel Mntary Mute will apply the level of attenuation set in
the Mini Console’s mute setting to the audio received from
the currently selected site for as long as the button is held.
(If mute setting is MAX, the audio is ignored.) Once the
button is released, the audio will be restored to prior levels.
(If mute is MAX, the highest priority audio will be selected
for output.)
Sel Site Mute
Sel Site Mute is an On/Off button that will apply the level of
attenuation set in the Mini Console’s mute setting to all
audio from the currently selected site. (If mute setting is
MAX, the selected audio will be disabled.) Pressing the
button again will restore the audio to previous levels. (If
mute setting is MAX, the highest priority audio will be
selected for output.) If the selected site changes while Sel
Site Mute is active, the mute will adjust so that the selected
audio remains muted and the unselected audio remains
unmuted.
Sel Timed Mute
Sel Timed Mute is a timed button that will apply the level of
attenuation set in the Mini Console’s mute setting to all
audio from the currently selected site for the time set in the
currently loaded profile. (If mute setting is MAX, the
selected audio will be disabled.) Pressing the button again
will reset the timer to its intial value and restart the
countdown. Once the timer expires, the audio will be
restored to its previous levels. (If mute setting is MAX, the
highest priority audio will be selected for output.) If the
selected site changes while Sel Timed Mute is active, the
mute will adjust so that the selected audio remains muted
and the unselected audio remains unmuted.
Site #1, Site #2, ... , Site #8
Direct Site Buttons allow user-defined control and access of
the enabled sites. Three modes are available. The modes are
as follows.
Direct Connect:
Direct Connect mode will immediately set the associated site
to active. The LED associated with this site button will be
turned on (non-flashing) to indicate that this site is the active
site. Any active mutes will be updated.
Mute:
When using Mute mode, a single button press will apply the
attenuation level set in the Mini Console’s audio settings to all
audio received from this site. (If mute setting is MAX, the
audio will be disabled.) The LED associated with this button
will flash with the mute pattern to indicate that this site is
muted. To restore audio from this site, simply press the site
button again. This will set the associated site to active and
remove any site specific mutes. The LED associated with this
site button will be turned on (non-flashing) to indicate that
97
MM-014714-001, Rev. H
this site is the active site. All other active mutes will be
updated.
Timed Mute:
When using Timed Mute mode, a single button press will
apply the attenuation level set in the Mini Console’s audio
setting to all audio received from this site and set a
countdown timer using the user defined time. (If mute setting
is MAX, the audio will be disabled.) The LED associated with
this button will begin to flash with the mute pattern to indicate
that this site is muted. If the button is not pressed again and
the timer expires, the audio will be restored to prior levels.
However, if the site button is pressed again while the timer is
active, the associated site will be set to active, the associated
LED turned on (non-flashing), the timer disabled, and the
audio restored to prior levels. Any other active mutes will be
updated as well.
The remaining operation of the site buttons is independent
of the selected operating mode. This operation indicates
which site’s audio is currently being heard by flashing the
LED of the site whose audio is currently being outputted.
The LED is flashed using the active audio pattern. The
active audio pattern is different from the mute pattern. If the
audio that is currently being outputted is from the selected
site, the LED will not flash but remain solid.
Site Down
Site Down will decrement to the next available site (with
wraparound) and display the currently associated channel
(sys/grp) for that site (default is used if no prior selection
has been made). If the button is held, the available sites will
begin scrolling. Releasing the button will select the
currently displayed site. If no other sites besides the current
site are defined, the currently selected site will not be
changed.
Site Up
Site Up will increment to the next available site (with
wraparound) and display the currently associated channel
(sys/grp) for that site (default is used if no prior s election
has been made). If the button is held, the available sites will
begin scrolling. Releasing the button will select the
currently displayed site. If no other sites besides the current
site are defined, the currently selected site will not be
changed.
UnSel Mntary Mute
Unsel Mntary Mute will apply the level of attenuation set in
the Mini Console’s mute setting to all audio from the
currently unselected sites for as long as the button is held.
(If mute setting is MAX, the audio will be disabled.) Once
the button is released, the audio will be restored to prior
levels. (If mute setting is MAX, the highest priority audio
will be selected for output.)
UnSel Site Mute
Unsel Site Mute is an On/Off button that will apply the level
of attenuation set in the Mini Console’s mute setting to all
audio from currently unselected sites. (If mute setting is
MAX, the unselected audio will be disabled.) Pressing the
button again will restore all audio to previous levels. (If
mute setting is MAX, the highest priority audio will be
selected for output.) If the selected site changes while Unsel
Site Mute is active, the mute will adjust so that the
unselected audio remains muted and the selected audio
remains unmuted.
UnSel Timed Mute
Unsel Timed Mute is a timed button that will apply the level
of attenuation set in the Mini Console’s mute setting to all
audio from currently unselected sites for the time set in the
currently loaded profile. (If mute setting is MAX, the
unselected audio will be disabled.) Pressing the button again
will reset the timer to its initial value and restart the
countdown. Once the timer expires, the audio will be
restored to its previous levels. (If mute setting is MAX, the
highest priority audio will be selected for output.) If the
selected site changes while Unsel Timed Mute is active, the
mute will adjust so that the unselected audio remains muted
and the selected audio remains unmuted.
The default settings match the keypad button labels on the VoIP Remote Controller’s keypad. Unlabeled
buttons default to "Disabled".
8.16.1.2 Profile (n) Accessory Buttons
The On Hook and Off Hook options configure Hookswitch functionality when a VoIP Remote Controller
uses a handset. The Monitor On and Monitor Off options configure a microphone’s Monitor Switch
functionality when the VoIP Remote Controller uses a Desk Microphone.
The Profile (n) Accessory Button’s use an Action On and Action Off configuration. Further, an On or Off
Action can be assigned to each edge (Off To On and On to Off) of an input. Any of the CS7000 Control
Station or VoIP Remote Controller Actions can be configured in one of Profile (n) Accessory Button
options. However, the most practical use is the Hookswitch Action.
The CS7000 Control Station’s Hookswitch Action’s On / Off active state is the opposite to the physical
state of the VoIP Remote Controller’s Hookswitch. If it is desired for the Hookswitch Action to be active
98
MM-014714-001, Rev. H
when the VoIP Remote Controller’s handset is physically "Off Hook", then the On Hook function’s
action must be set to "Hookswitch Off" and the Off Hook action must be set to "Hookswitch On".
The Monitor Function active state, when configured, got the Hookswitch action, is the same as the
Hookswitch’s active state. As illustrated in Figure 8-31, the Monitor On function should be assigned the
"Hookswitch On" action. Likewise, the Monitor Off function should be assigned to the "Hookswitch Off"
action.
8.16.2 Beeps Tab
A Profile web page Beeps tab is shown in Figure 8-32.
Figure 8-32: Profile Web Page—Beeps Tab (Example)
8.16.2.1 Profile (n) Tone Configuration
The Go-Ahead Alert Tone and the Failed Alert Tone are typically used on a trunked radio system to
indicate whether or not the trunked system assigned the Control Station a Voice Channel transmitter in
response to a Control Station initiated PTT. These Alert Tones are used when the "Tx Available Option"
option set up on the Radio Configuration Parameters page is set to a value other than "Ignore".
The Alert Tone Frequency parameter is entered into a text box as a decimal number between 500 and
3000 in Hertz.
Repetitions are the number of beeps in the alert tone. The Repetition parameter is entered into a text box
as a decimal number between 0 and 255. A repetition of 0 means that no beep will be produced.
The Beep Gain parameter is the volume level of the beep referenced to the network’s normalized audio
level. The Beep Gain parameter is set by a pull-down list with values from 0 dB to 30 dB in 6 dB
increments.
Go-Ahead Tone Configuration
The Go-Ahead Alert Tone is the tone produced when the radio has granted Voice Channel transmitter
access in response to a Control Station PTT. The default Go-Ahead Alert Tone is one 1000 Hz beep with
a 0 dB Volume Gain.
99
MM-014714-001, Rev. H
Fail Alert Tone Configuration
The Fail Alert Tone is the tone produced when the radio has denied Voice Channel transmitter access in
response to a Control Station PTT. The default Fail Alert Tone is three 2000 Hz beeps with a 0 dB
Volume Gain.
8.16.3 Miscellaneous Tab
A Profile web page Misc. (miscellaneous) tab is shown in Figure 8-33.
Figure 8-33: Profile Web Page—Miscellaneous Tab (Example)
8.16.3.1 Profile (n) Footswitch / Time Configuration
Footswitch Microphone Enable
The Footswitch Microphone Enable parameter allows the user to determine which microphone will be
activated when the footswitch is depressed. When the Handset Microphone button is selected, the
handset microphone will be activated even if the handset is currently in its cradle.
Remote Time Display Format
Use this parameter to select the preferred time display format.
Parallel Remote Mute
Enabling the Parallel Remote Mute parameter will apply the local remote’s internal speaker mute option
to all audio received from other remotes. Use this option to prevent feedback or audio overlap when two
remotes are operated in close proximity to each other.
Timed Mute Duration (Global):
The Timed Mute Duration parameter sets the number of seconds that the VoIP Remote Controller’s
Timed Mute Action will be active when the Action is assigned to a keypad button and when the Action is
initiated.

8.17.1 Audio Matrix Tab
The Audio Matrix Configuration web page’s Audio Matrix tab is shown in Figure 8-34.
Figure 8-34: Audio Matrix Configuration Web Page—Audio Matrix Tab (Example)
8.17.1.1 General Information
Each audio mode has an independent set of Audio Paths. The paths for a mode can be displayed by
selecting the mode via the Audio Matrix tab’s Select Mode pull-down list. See the side listing in Figure
8-34.
An Audio Path is a connection from an Audio Matrix Input to an Audio Matrix Output. An audio mode
supports up to twelve Audio Paths.
101
MM-014714-001, Rev. H
The Audio Matrix path’s Audio Inputs are:
•
Desk Mic Audio
•
External I/O Connector Mic Hi (P3 pin 1) Audio
•
Radio Connector Rx Audio Hi 1 (J3 pin 1) Audio
•
Audio From VoIP Remote Controllers
•
Audio From Tone Remote Controllers (LINE IN)
•
Radio Connector Rx Audio Hi 2 (J3 pin 13) Audio
•
Auxiliary Audio Input (P3 pin 3)
•
Radio Connector CU Mic Hi Out (J3 pin 21)
A path’s input is selected by the respective path’s left-hand pull-down list. Available path inputs are listed
in the left-most side-list in Figure 8-35.
The Audio Matrix path’s Audio Outputs are:
•
Radio Connector Ext Mic Hi 1 (J3 pin 5) Audio
•
Audio To VoIP Remote Controllers
•
Audio To V/U Meter
•
Audio To Tone Remote Controllers (LINE OUT)
•
CS7000 Internal Speaker Audio
•
External I/O Connector Aux Audio Out 1 (P3 pin 10) Audio
•
External I/O Connector Aux Audio Out 2 (P3 pin 11) Audio
•
Radio Connector Ext Mic Hi 2 (J3 pin 3) Audio
A path’s output is selected by the respective path’s right-hand pull-down list. Available path outputs are
listed in the right-most side-list in Figure 8-35.
The M5300 / M7300 radio’s primary Microphone Audio Input is radio Connector Ext Mic Hi 1 (J3 pin 5).
The M5300 / M7300 radio’s primary Receive Audio output is radio Connector Rx Audio Hi 1 (J3 pin 13).
There may be radio-generated Alert Tone audio on the radio’s Receive Audio output.

Available Path Inputs:
Available Path Outputs:
Figure 8-35: Audio Matrix Configuration Web Page—Audio Matrix Tab with Available Path I/O
Lists (Example)
8.17.1.2 Configuring an Audio Matrix Path
To configure an Audio Matrix Path:
1. Select the Audio Mode that the path will be in.
2. Select the path’s Audio Input.
3. Select the path’s Audio Output.
Any Audio Input can be connected to any Audio Output.
A "Path Off" entry in either the Audio Input or Audio Output pull-down list disables the path. When it is
not desired to use a path, both Audio Input and Audio Output should be set to "Path Off."
For radio-generated Alert Tones to be heard in a transmit Audio Mode, paths from the radio Speaker
Output (radio Connector Rx Audio Hi 1 (J3 pin 13) Audio) to the desired audio outputs must be set up.
8.17.1.3 Example Application: Interfacing to a Microwave Mux
Consider interfacing to a microwave multiplexer (mux) that provides a relay closure PTT and a balanced
4-wire audio interface. The mux can be interfaced to the CS7000 Control Station with no additional
hardware by appropriately configuring the Audio Matrix.
103
MM-014714-001, Rev. H
The mux’s transmit relay closure can be connected between ground and the CS7000 Control Station’s
External I/O Connector’s External PTT (P3 pin 16) input. When the mux’s relay closes, the CS7000
Control Station’s External I/O Connector’s External PTT (P3 pin 16) input is grounded, causing the
Control Station transmit and to enter its "External I/O Connector (Aux Mic) Transmit Active" audio
mode.
The mux’s balanced 4-wire audio interface can be connected to the J11, the RJ-11 Tone Remote Control
Telephone Line Connector, on the CS7000 Control Station. This provides a balanced Four Wire Audio
Interface from the CS7000 Control Station to the mux. The mux need not provide low level Keying Tone
on its LINE IN audio interface for the CS7000 Control Station to transmit using the telephone line audio
as its mic audio source.
The Audio Matrix can then be configured by selecting the "External I/O Connector (Aux Mic) Transmit
Active" audio mode. As illustrated in Figure 8-36, the desired Transmit Audio paths can then be
configured using the "Audio From Tone Remote Controllers" Audio Input to the desired Audio Outputs.
In this figure, note how paths with the radio Rx Audio Input are set to allow radio-generated Alert Tones
to be heard.
When the Audio Matrix is so configured, the mux’s Transmit Relay Closure will cause the CS7000
Control Station to connect the mux’s balanced 4-wire audio interface Line In audio to the radio’s External
Mic input, the VoIP Remote Controllers, the V/U Meter, and both External I/O Connector Aux Audio
Outputs.
The CS7000 Control Station will then connect the radio’s Receive Audio output to the VoIP Remote
Controllers, to the mux’s balanced 4-wire audio interface Line Out audio, and to the CS7000 Desktop’s
Internal Speaker so call progress Alert Tones can be heard.

8.20 CS7000 CONTROL STATION WORKAROUNDS
Methods for addressing some undesirable behavior are described in the following subsections.
8.20.1
VoIP Remote Controller(s) Display “Disabled” at CS7000 Control Station
Power-Up
8.20.1.1 General Information
The VoIP Remote Controllers will display “Disabled” even when the radio’s selected system and group is
one of the SG Key-mapped systems and groups.
While displaying “Disabled,” a VoIP Remote Controller will not play CS7000 Control Station audio and
a VoIP Remote Controller cannot initiate a transmission. In order for the VoIP Remote Controllers to
become fully active, the radio in the CS7000 Control Station must be changed to one of the SG Keymapped systems and groups, either locally at the CS7000 Control Station or by a channel change initiated
by a VoIP Remote Controller. In either case, user intervention is required before the VoIP Remote
Control System becomes active.
This undesirable situation is the result of the radio not supplying all relevant initialization information to a
CAN-based Desktop Controller that joins the CAN link well after the radio has powered up. In particular,
the radio does not provide initial SG Key keylight information referenced to the radio’s selected system
and group to late joining CAN-based Desktop Controller(s).
The CS7000 Control Station, with its twenty-plus second start-up time, is a late joining CAN device.
Consequently, the CS7000 Control Station does not receive SG Key keylight information. To the CS7000
Control Station, all SG Key keylights are by default off. To the CS7000 Control Station, the radio’s
selected system and group are then not one of the sixteen SG Key mapped systems and groups required
for VoIP Remote Control System operation. Therefore, the CS7000 Control Station correctly sets the
VoIP Remote Control System’s channel to “Disabled.”
The radio does provide valid selected system and group SG Key keylight information to the CAN-based
Desktop Controllers when it powers up. The work around is then to cause the radio to power up after the
111
MM-014714-001, Rev. H
CS7000 Control Station is fully active. To do this, the CS7000 Control Station must have absolute control
of the radio’s power switch by way of the CH-721 control head’s CTRL_ON input.
8.20.1.2 Workaround Procedure
1. On the Radio Configuration web page’s Radio Control tab, set the Control Unit On/Off parameter
“Always On.” See Section 8.9.2.2 on page 65 for details. This gives the CS7000 Control Station the
ability to control the radio’s power. With this setting, while the CS7000 Control Station is starting up,
the station holds radio power off. Once the station becomes active, it allows the radio to power-up.
2. Turn the radio’s CH-721 control head power switch off. This prevents the head from controlling the
radio power on/off.
8.20.1.3 Issues and Restrictions
•
The CS7000 Control Station’s radio must have an attached front-mount CH-721 control head. This
work around will not work on the remote control-only CS7000 Control Station, where the radio does
not have a front-mount CH-721 control head. This is because the station’s radio connector CTRL_ON
signal is processed in the radio’s front-mount CH-721control head. CTRL_ON is not processed in the
radio.
•
There cannot be any remote-mount CH-721 control heads attached to the CS7000 Control Station.
This is because a powered and active remote-mount CH-721 control head not currently connected to a
radio’s CAN bus is always attempting to establish communications with a radio over the CAN bus.
This remote-mount CH-721 CAN bus activity causes the radio to power-up regardless of the radio’s
front-mount control head’s CTRL_ON line. A remote-mount CH-721 control head will then cause the
radio to power-up before the station is active, resulting in the station missing the radio’s power-up SG
Key keylight information.
8.20.2
Remote Controller’s Hookswitch Default Functionality is Reversed with
V0.35 Software
8.20.2.1 General Information
With the default configuration, as in a Reset To Defaults function, the Hookswitch functionality from
Remote Controllers is opposite from the desired functionality. For example, pressing the monitor switch
on a VoIP Remote Controller puts the radio on-hook and releasing the monitor switch on a VoIP Remote
Controller puts the radio on-hook.
8.20.2.2 Workaround Procedure
The workaround for this problem is to change the Hookswitch functionality on the Remote Configuration
web page’s Enable Tone Function tab (see example in Figure 8-44), and to change the Hookswitch
functionality on the VoIP Remote Control web page’s Button tab for the respective profile (see example
in Figure 8-45).

OPERATIONAL TESTING
This section includes test procedures to verify the performance of the Control Station and its antenna
system installation. Tests must be performed by qualified service personnel with sufficient training and/or
knowledge to ensure the final installation meets requirements defined by the FCC and other regulatory
agencies. Final testing shall ensure that the installation meets FCC MPE requirements (refer to Section
1.1), and Maximum Effective Radiated Power (ERP) requirements (refer to Section 9.2).
9.1
SETUP AND EQUIPMENT TESTING
For EDACS, P25, and OpenSky systems, it is recommended to request the system administrator designate
a talk group on the system that is pre-defined for equipment testing during installation and maintenance.
This will minimize interference on a user’s active talk group. It is also recommended, where possible, to
assign a specific RF channel at the site(s) for the equipment test group; this aides the installers and
technicians by always knowing the specific RF frequency to monitor during testing. Conventional
systems may be left no choice but to test on an active user channel. Is all cases, techniques should be
employed to minimize transmit time during testing.
Setup also includes setting the CS7000 Control Station transmitter power output level to meet the station
authorization’s Maximum ERP (refer to Section 9.2). After determining the transmitter value for
Maximum ERP, there are three (3) test procedures included in this section which must be performed:
•
Verifying TX RF Power Output and Antenna Reflected Power
•
Verifying TX RF Frequency and Modulation (Deviation)
•
Over-the-Air Final Testing

MM-014714-001, Rev. H
9.2
MAXIMUM EFFECTIVE RADIATED POWER
The FCC and other similar regulatory agencies define during station authorization (licensing) the
maximum Effective Radiated Power that may be radiated from the antenna. ERP can be determined by
subtracting feed line losses and adding antenna gain to the transmitter output power.
Once determined, the transmitter’s RF output power must be aligned not to exceed the pre-determined
maximum transmitter power to meet ERP requirements.
9.2.1
Determining Maximum Transmitter Power that Meets ERP Requirement
Antenna gains are expressed relative to a dipole (dBd) or relative to a theoretical Isotropic antenna (dBi).
Antenna gains expressed as dBi are 2.15 dB greater than the dBd value for the same antenna (e.g., 6 dBd
equals 8.15 dBi). ERP values should also be expressed relative to dipoles or Isotropic antennas, EDRP
for dipoles and EIRP for Isotropic antennas.
Therefore, when antenna gain is expressed as dBi, and EDRP is required, 2.15 dB is subtracted in
Part 2.b. of the equation shown below. If antenna gain is expressed as dBd, and EIRP is required,
2.15 dB is added in Part 2.b. of the equation below. If both antenna gain and ERP values are expressed
the same, Part 2.b. of the equation is simply skipped.
Example:
If a site requires a maximum of 50 Watts EDRP using an 8.15 dBi gain antenna, and 3 dB feed line loss,
then the following equation applies:
1. Convert the ERP value from Watts to decibels (dBm):
EDRP Watts = 10Log(1000 * EDRP) dBm
50 Watts EDRP = 10Log(1000 * 50)
50 Watts EDRP = 47.0 dBm
2. Sum the antenna gains, feed line losses and dBi or dBd correction factor:
a. Subtract the antenna gain from the ERP value:
47.0 dBm – 8.15 dBi = 38.85 dBm
b. Add or subtract 2.15 dB, if required:
(see above, paragraph two)
38.85 dBm + 2.15 dB2 = 41.0 dBm
c. Add the overall feed line losses 3:
41.0 dBm + 3 dB = 44.0 dBm
3. Convert from dBm to Watts:
Maximum Transmitter POUT (Watts) = InvLog(dBm-30)/10)
Maximum Transmitter POUT (Watts) = InvLog(44.0 – 30)/10)
Maximum Transmitter POUT (Watts) = 25 Watts
Therefore; for a Control Station installation with an antenna gain of 8.15 dBi, and a feed line loss of 3 dB,
and an EDRP requirement of 50 Watts, the transmitter power output must be set to 25 Watts.
9.2.1.1
For OpenSky Mode of Operation (Stations using M5300 or M7300)
To set the transmitter RF power output to meet the ERP requirement determined in Section 9.2.1 by
performing the following:
1. Connect a wattmeter, and 50 ohm load to the CS7000 Control Station’s antenna port.
Only add or subtract 2.15 dB if the antenna rating (dBi or dBd) differs from the ERP requirement (EIRP or EDRP).
When calculating feed line loss, be sure to include the RF losses presented by coaxial jumpers, lightning protection equipment, the main feed line and any
other in-line devices.
116
MM-014714-001, Rev. H
2. Power up the CS7000 Control Station, and connect a PC running a Terminal program (19,200 kbs,
8-N-1) to the terminal port on the radio.
3. Send the command  followed by the dBm value of the desired output power
(e.g., 25 Watts = 44 dBm = ). For further setup and programming information, refer to
the mobile radio’s Software Release Notes, publication number MS-014467-001.
4. Send command  to save the changed power setting.
5. Success of this setting may be verified while performing Section 9.3.
9.2.1.2
For P25, EDACS, or Conventional Mode of Operation
Set the transmitter RF power level to the ERP requirement determined in Section 9.2.1 by performing the
following:
1. Connect a wattmeter, and 50 ohm load to the CS7000 Control Station’s antenna port.
2. Power up the CS7000 Control Station, and connect a PC running the appropriate radio Personality
Manager (RPM) software listed in the accessories Table 4-2.
3. Follow RPM’s on-line help instructions to set the transmitter RF power output.
4. Verify success of this setting while performing Section 9.3.
9.3
VERIFYING TX RF FORWARD AND REFLECTED POWER
After installation of the Control Station is complete, it is required to verify the CS7000 Control Station’s
forward RF power output, and reflected RF power while connected to the antenna.
Perform the following tests:
1. Make sure the CS7000 Control Station’s AC power is OFF.
2. Disconnect the RF coaxial antenna cable from the rear of the station and connect it to the wattmeter’s
output (load) connector.
3. Connect a coaxial jumper cable between the CS7000 antenna port and the wattmeter input (radio)
connector.
A peak-power reading RF wattmeter equivalent to the wattmeter specified in Table
9-1 must be used. Do not use an average or RMS-responding wattmeter.
NOTE
4. Power-up the CS7000 Control Station and select the group/channel for performing equipment testing
(refer to Section 9.1).
5. Position the wattmeter’s slug to measure forward RF output power. Rotate it if necessary. The arrow
on the face of the slug must point away from the CS7000 and towards the antenna for forward power
measurements.
6. Set the wattmeter to measure peak RF power.
7. Key the CS7000’s transmitter and measure the forward and reflected power; unkey the transmitter
when complete. The forward power should be within the required level to meet ERP requirements
determined in Section 9.2.
Transmit only for as long as needed to take the measurement, then immediately
disable the transmission.
NOTE
117
MM-014714-001, Rev. H
8. If forward and reflected power measurements are within the expected ranges (forward power equal or
less than the required wattage to meet ERP settings from Section 9.2, and reflected power no more
than 10% of measured forward power), record the measured results in the appropriate space on the
data collection form near the end of this manual.
CAUTION
If reflected power is greater than 10% of measured forward power, DO NOT attempt
corrections to the RF output power level to meet ERP values until the high reflected
power measurement is corrected.
If the reflected power measurement is greater than 10% of measured forward power, check/verify all
RF connections, and measure the RF output power again. If problems persist check the following:
a. Re-check the measurements with a different wattmeter, slug, and jumper cable.
b. Verify the antenna is consistent with the specified frequency range of the CS7000. For example,
if the CS7000 is configured for operations in an 800 MHz system, it must be connected to an
800 MHz-capable antenna.
c. Temporarily bypass any lightning protection or other devices installed inline with the antenna and
recheck forward and reflected power.
If problems persist, contact the Technical Assistance Center for assistance. TAC contact information
is listed on page 19.
If the measured forward power is outside the expected ranges, and the measured reflected power is no
more than 10% of measured forward power, return to Section 9.2.1.1 or Section 9.2.1.2 and
reprogram the RF power setting as necessary. If the necessary software change to obtain the expected
RF power level is more than ± 2 dB from the expected range, further investigation may be required.
9. When testing is complete, turn Off the AC power to the Control Station.
10. Disconnect the coaxial cable jumper and wattmeter.
11. Re-attach the antenna coaxial cable directly to the Control Station’s antenna port.
12. Turn ON the AC power to the Control Station.
To prevent RF leakage and ensure peak performance, make sure the RF
connectors are tight, but do not over tighten so connector damage will not occur.
WARNING
Mounting of the CS7000 and/or antenna in ways other than those described can
adversely affect performance, violate FCC rules on RF exposure, and even
damage the unit, posing a potential safety hazard.
WARNING
118
Additionially, Improper antenna and/or antenna cable installation may lead not
only to poor CS7000 performance, but also to harmful exposure of RF
electromagnetic energy.
MM-014714-001, Rev. H
9.4
VERIFYING TX RF FREQUENCY
After verifying forward and reflected power per Section 9.3, verify the CS7000 Control Station’s
transmitter frequency. It is recommended to have the system administrator designate a talk group on the
system that is pre-defined for test use.
The following frequency test should be performed over-the-air using the station’s antenna while
monitoring the transmitter’s pre-programmed RF frequency:
1. Power-up the CS7000 Control Station and select the group/channel for performing equipment testing
(refer to Section 9.1).
2. Setup the service monitor as required for measuring TX frequency of over-the-air transmissions.
3. Key up the CS7000 transmitter and measure TX frequency. Unkey the transmitter when complete.
4. If the frequency reading is within the expected ranges, record the measured results in the appropriate
space on the data collection form near the end of this manual.
If the frequency reading is not within the expected ranges, try the following:
a. Verify the test instrument settings and calibration date.
b. Re-check the measurement with another test instrument.
If problems persist, contact the Technical Assistance Center for assistance. TAC contact information
is listed on page 19.
9.5
VERIFYING TX MODULATION
Verify the TX modulation over-the-air using the station’s antenna while monitoring the transmitter’s
pre-programmed RF frequency. Procedures for measuring modulation vary slightly between analog and
digitally modulated transmitters. Perform the following procedure as it applies to the specific mode of
operation for the CS7000 Control Station under test:
9.5.1
Digital Modulation Modes (EDACS, P25, and OpenSky)
NOTE
The following modulation test is intended to verify the maximum deviation level of
the digitally modulated RF carrier for regulatory purposes and does not address the
resulting analog audio levels. If the Control Station’s analog levels heard at the
receiving station’s speaker during transmit appear incorrect while performing this test,
refer to the Installation section of this manual and other equipment manufacturer’s
manuals to set the resulting analog audio levels.
1. Make sure the antenna is connected to the CS7000 Control Station.
2. Power-up the CS7000 Control Station and select the group/channel for performing equipment testing
(refer to Section 9.1).
3. Setup the service monitor as required for measuring TX modulation of over-the-air transmissions.
4. Key up the CS7000’s transmitter and measure TX modulation. Unkey the transmitter when complete.
5. If the digital modulation reading is within the expected ranges, record the measured results in the
appropriate space on the data collection form near the end of this manual.
If the digital modulation reading is not within the expected ranges, try the following:
119
MM-014714-001, Rev. H
a. Verify the test instrument settings and calibration date.
b. Re-check the measurement with another test instrument.
If problems persist, contact the Technical Assistance Center for assistance. TAC contact information
is listed on page 19.
9.5.2
Analog Modulation Modes
1. Power-up the CS7000 Control Station and select the group/channel for performing equipment testing
(refer to Section 9.1).
2. Setup the service monitor as required for measuring TX modulation of over-the-air.
3. Connect a tone generator to the microphone input of the transmitter, set to 1000 Hz @ 1 Vrms.
Alternately connect a microphone to the Control Station’s microphone connector.
4. Key up the CS7000 transmitter and measure TX modulation using the test tone or by talking into the
microphone. Unkey the transmitter when complete.
5. If the modulation reading is within the expected ranges, record the measured results in the appropriate
space on the data collection form near the end of this manual.
If the modulation reading is not within the expected ranges, try the following:
a. Verify the test instrument settings and calibration date.
b. Re-check the measurement with another test instrument.
If problems persist, contact the Technical Assistance Center for assistance. TAC contact information
is listed on page 19.
9.5.2.1
Desktop Remote Controllers on Systems Using Analog Modes
1. If one or more Tone, VoIP, or CAN Remote Controllers are connected to the CS7000 Control Station,
it is recommended to repeat Section 9.5.2: steps 3 thru 5, while modulating each Desktop Remote
Controller connected to the Control Station.
2. If the modulation reading is within the expected ranges, perform the test for each Remote Controller
connected to the CS7000 Control Station.
If the modulation reading is not within the expected ranges, verify setup of each remote per the
instructions supplied in the appendices of this manual, or the manufacturer’s instructions supplied
with the Remote Controller.
120
MM-014714-001, Rev. H
10 COMPLETING THE INSTALLATION
Review and follow guidelines presented in this list before considering the installation complete:
•
Verify all electrical connections are connected properly and the associated connector attachment
hardware is tight. Pay special attention to all RF antenna cables, chassis ground cabling, and AC
power cords.
•
Verify all fuses are correctly installed and properly rated.
•
Verify all electrical cables and wiring are tied, stowed, and protected so they are out of the way of
casual contact, away from sources of extreme heat, and wire chafing cannot occur. Pay special
attention to all RF antenna cables and AC power cords.
•
Verify all related mechanical hardware is mounted securely and all respective mounting hardware is
tight.
•
Remove all tools and unused hardware from installation area(s).
•
Verify the test performance data has been recorded on the data collection form found in APPENDIX
A.1 of this manual.
10.1 FINAL OVER-THE-AIR TESTING
If not already performed during setup and testing, it is recommended to perform live over-the-air testing
on the customer’s active group/channel from the Control Station’s local microphone, and from each
Desktop Remote Controller connected to the Control Station.
10.1.1 Adjusting the Desktop Microphone Audio Output Level
Desktop microphones, model MC-014121-001 and MC-014121-002, provide a built-in audio level
adjustment. This setting may be adjusted to a lower (counter-clockwise) position to minimize
background by; however, may require the user to speak into the microphone at a closer distance.
Adjusting the setting to a higher (clockwise) position will allow the user to speak into the microphone at a
more comfortable distance; however, will also increase the risk of undesirable background noise.
121
MM-014714-001, Rev. H
10.2 SWITCHING BETWEEN OPERATIONAL MODES (using M5300 or
M7300 Transceiver)
At the time this manual was written, the Unity XG-100M transceiver does not support OpenSky Trunked
Protocol; therefore, the following information applies only to CS7000 Desktop Stations with a M5300 or
M7300 transceiver installed into the station. Radios programmed with RPM software version R05 or
later may be setup to allow the user an easy 1-button method of switching between
EDACS/Conventional/P25 (ECP) and OpenSky Trunking Protocol (OTP) modes of operation.
Additionally, radios programmed with version 19.95 or later OTP software supports Quick Key
functionality enabling keypad entry 1# on a System control head (while in OTP mode) to switch the
radio from OTP mode to ECP mode. Additionally, sending the DTMF sequence 1# via various external
audio input sources may also switch the radio from OTP mode to ECP mode.
The preferred method of allowing the user to switch the radio between modes is by
programming the radio control head’s Preset C button for this action. The following
sub-sections describe how to setup the CS7000 Desktop Station for this feature.
NOTE
10.2.1
Programming the Preset C Control Head Button to Switch Between ECP
Mode and OTP Mode
1. Power-up the CS7000 Control Station per Section 6.
2. Connect a PC running Radio Personality Manager (RPM) programming software (version R05 or
later) to the Serial A USB programming port on the rear panel of the station.
NOTE
It may be necessary to install USB Port Driver Software SK-015121-001. This driver
configures the PC to recognize the CS7000 Control Station allowing assignment of a
COM Port number to the USB port. The assigned COM Port number must be
loaded into the RPM programming software to communicate with the Control
Station. Refer to the USB Driver Installation Manual, publication number
MM-015245-001, and the help menu within RPM for more information about setting
up RPM and the COM Port.
3. Determine the assigned COM Port number for the USB connection and setup RPM for
communications over this port.
4. Read and save the existing radio personality from the station using RPM. Refer to help screens if
necessary.
10.2.1.1 ECP Preset C Button Programming
If Section 10.2.1.1 is performed, it is imperative that Section 10.2.1.2 is also performed
to ensure the ability of switching back and forth between operating modes.
CAUTION
After preparing the CS7000 for programming per instructions in Section 10.2.1, perform the following:
1. Using RPM software version R05 or later, setup the desired ECP system(s).
2. If not already, add an OTP system to the personality.
122
MM-014714-001, Rev. H
3. From RPM’s Personality Data Tree (i.e., in its main dialog box), select Options > System/Group
Keys, then using the drop-down menu beside SG16, select the OTP system.
4. From RPM’s Personality Data Tree, select Options > Control Unit Keypad Options, then using the
drop-down menu beside Button C, select SG16.
5. Program the revised personality into the radio.
6. Archive the revised personality and close RPM programming software.
7. Cycle power to the radio. Afterward, momentarily press the control head’s Preset C button. Verify
the radio toggles from ECP mode to OTP mode. If not, verify/repeat this section’s instructions.
10.2.1.2 OTP Preset C Button Programming Setup
If Section 10.2.1.1 is performed, it is imperative that Section 10.2.1.2 is also performed
to ensure the ability of switching back and forth between operating modes.
CAUTION
The preferred method for changing from OTP mode to ECP mode is through the use of the Preset C
button. The following procedure describes how to program the radio for this functionality.
NOTE
OTP software version 19.95 and later support Quick Key functionality. A radio can be
switched from OTP mode to ECP mode via the control head’s menu structure (if
enabled) or by via DTMF/keypad sequence 1#.
After programming the radio per instructions in Section 10.2.1.1, perform the following:
1. From the PC already connected to the CS7000 Desktop Station, run a terminal emulation program
such as HyperTerminal.
2. Setup the terminal program’s COM Port to the port assigned to the USB connection.
3. The radio must be in OTP mode to program the Preset C button for use during OTP operation. At
this point, there are several ways to accomplish placing the radio in OTP mode:
a. If the procedure in Section 10.2.1.1 was previously performed, the radio should now be in OTP
mode. If not, press the Preset C button to switch to OTP mode. Or;
b. Using the control head’s Ramp Control, scroll through the menu until the OTP system name is
displayed. After a few seconds, the radio will automatically transition to OTP mode. Or;
c. From the control head’s keypad, press 1#. Or;
d. From a tone remote controller connected to a Tone Remote CS7000 Desktop Station, send DTMF
command 1#.
4. Verify the radio is in OTP mode and send the following commands to the radio via the terminal
program:
at@presetc15 [ENTER]
AT&W [ENTER]
5. Cycle power to the radio and momentarily press the Preset C button. Verify the radio toggles from
OTP mode to ECP mode. If not, repeat this section’s instructions.
6. Momentarily press the Preset C button again. Verify the radio toggles from ECP mode to OTP mode.

7. Close the terminal program’s session.
8. Re-read the radio’s personality using RPM programming software and archive the completed
personality changes.
10.2.2 User’s Methods of Switching Between ECP Mode and OTP Mode
After performing the programming procedures in Sections 10.2.1.1 and 10.2.1.2, the user can switch the
radio between ECP mode and OTP mode by pressing the Preset C button on the control head’s front
panel. This is the preferred method for changing modes.
Additionally, several other methods are also useable when in OTP mode and desiring to switch to ECP
mode:
124
•
Pressing 1# on a System CH-721 Control Unit's Numeric Keypad.
•
Sending DTMF command 1# from a M7300 Radio's rear HD-DB44 External I/O Connector's
External Mic and External PTT Inputs (with proper audio levels and PTT timing).
•
Sending DTMF command 1# from a CH-721 Control Unit's rear DB25 External I/O Connector's
External Mic and External PTT Inputs (with proper audio levels and PTT timing).

11 PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE
Routine preventive maintenance is one of the most important aspects in maintaining good station
performance. Routine preventive maintenance adds value through reduced/eliminated outages, minimized
down-time, and planned off-peak time/maintenance procedures. Preventive maintenance should include
but not be limited the following listed checks. Typically these checks should be performed on an annual
basis, or more often in harsh environments. Any found damage or faults must be repaired:
•
Visually inspect all site equipment for any physical damage caused by weather, vandalism, lightning
strikes, etc. Where possible verify the condition of all external lightning protection devices.
•
Verify all site equipment is properly grounded. Refer to Site Grounding and Lightning Protection
Guidelines Manual AE/LZT 123 4618/1 as necessary. Refer to Section 5.5 for additional information.
•
Verify the site’s antenna is securely mounted and in good physical condition from a visual standpoint.
Refer to Section 5.4 for additional information.
•
Verify the site’s antenna system is within its Voltage Standing-Wave Ratio (VSWR) specification,
and properly grounded. Refer to Section 9.3 for additional information.
•
Verify all antenna-related cabling, wiring and conduits are physically secure. Refer to Section 5.4.5
for additional information.
•
If employed, verify all site backhaul equipment (i.e., routers, Ethernet switches, etc.) are physically
secure and properly grounded. As necessary, consult the respective vendor manual for preventive
maintenance procedures.
•
Verify all weatherproofing materials are in good condition. This includes cabinet door and panel
seals, seals at cable feed-thrus, coaxial cable connector seals, etc.
•
Inspect and clean the station’s rear panel fan at least every three (3) months of continuous station use,
in accordance with Section 11.1.
•
Inspect and clean the interior of the station at least every twelve (12) months of continuous station
use. Use an ESD-safe vacuum to clean any dust buildup or other foreign particles from the interior of
the station. At this time, the 80-centimeter fan’s filter (if present) should be removed and thoroughly
cleaned.
•
If required, verify all building/cabinet locks are present and secure.
•
Complete/File records of all performed preventive maintenance checks, findings and repairs as
required.
11.1 INSPECTING AND CLEANING THE REAR PANEL FAN FILTER
Approximately every three (3) months of continuous station use, the 80-centimeter fan vent hole area on
the rear panel of the station should be inspected for excessive dust build-up and/or other foreign material,
and cleaned as necessary. Cleaning will ensure adequate airflow through the fan. If excessive dust or
other foreign material is observed during an inspection, clean this area by vacuuming it. Removal of the
station’s top cover is not required for external cleaning.
NOTE
CS7000 Fan Upgrade Kit KT-018569-002 is available from the Harris Customer Care
center. This kit includes replacement 40-centimeter and 80-centimeter fans, and a rear
panel filter for improved cooling and quieter fan operation. Refer to installation manual

CONFIGURING MODEL 24-66 TONE REMOTE CONTROLLER TO
USE PRE-MADE OFF-THE-SHELF TELEPHONE LINE CABLES
DURNG LOCAL 4-WIRE OPERATION
The IDA Model 24-66 Tone Remote Controller’s Telephone Line Connector is wired the same as Harris
Desktop and Control Stations’ Telephone Line Connectors (i.e., phone line connectors). The Model
24-66’s 4-Wire Audio LINE_OUT is on RJ-11 pins 3 and 4. The Model 24-66’s LINE_IN is on RJ-11
pins 2 and 5. Consequently, a standard direct-connect pin-for-pin RJ-11 telephone cable will connect the
two device’s outputs together and it will connect the two device’s inputs together. This applies to both the
CS7000 Control Station and the M7100 Desktop Station.

Model 24-66 Tone Remote Controller Jumper Designations
J5 is an 8-pin RJ-45 modular connector and J6 is a 6-pin RJ-11 modular connector. Therefore, the pin
numbers for each telephone line pair differ. For the following jumper table, the inner-most pair, RJ-11
pins 3 and 4, (RJ-45 pins 4 and 5), is called LINE_1. The middle pair on the RJ-11, pins 2 and 5 (RJ-45
pins 3 and 6) is called LINE_2.

Suggested Solution
Two-pin jumpers JP3 through JP10 connect J5 and J6 connector pins to transformer pins. These jumpers
are located in a jumper field near the two transformers. When the shorting bar is removed from the
jumper, one has access to the connector pin and the transformer pin. Wire jumpers can then be made to
"cross" the two telephone lines. This is shown in Figure B-1.
This configuration requires eight (8) wires. The task can be reduced somewhat by just changing the
wiring for one of the connectors. Units can then be daisy-chained by the use of readily available RJ-11
adapters.

B.1.4
Two-Pin Shorting Bar Implementation
Jumpers can be readily made from two-pin shorting bars. These mount conveniently when the shorting
bar is oriented in the Y-axis of the TRC and where the unconnected pin of the shorting bar is facing
toward the rear of the remote controller.
The preferred solution is a 2-wire cable that crosses the two pins across the cable’s connector.
B.1.5
Two-Wire Operation
For 2-wire audio applications, a Model 24-66 Tone Remote Controller uses transformer T2 for both
directions. As shipped, these controllers use the inner pair (RJ-11 connector pins 3 and 4) of their
telephone line connectors. This is compatible with the 2-wire audio desktop station applications.
Consequently, a Model 24-66 Tone Remote Controller will work as shipped with a 2-wire audio
desktop/control station.
When the above configuration is made, the Model 24-66 Tone Remote Controller will use the middle pair
(RJ-11 pins 2 and 5) as its 2-wire audio telephone line. This is not desirable.
The solution to this situation where a Model 24-66 Tone Remote Controller could be used in 2-wire or
fore 4-wire audio applications is then to do the configuration for one telephone line connector and then set
the jumpers for the other telephone line connector’s inner pair to transformer T2.
