  Jotron AS| TR7750C: Operators Manual  Functional description Page 3-2 P/N: 84748 (F) 3.1.5 LED Indicators LOW (yellow):  The transmitter transmits in low power, either caused by an internal failure (SWR, Temperature, or low input voltage) or set by the user. The low power level is adjustable. AL (red):  Indicates that an alarm is present in the transmitter unit. Details of the alarm will be shown on the display. REM (green):  This LED has multiple functions. The REMOTE indicator will be lit with a constant green colour when the transmitter is “ready” for remote operation. Ready means that the keying options has been set to include keying from an external source, and that the voice input has been set to an external source (600 ohm line input). In addition the REMOTE indicator will flash yellow each time the unit is communicating on either of the remote interfaces (RS232, RS485, Ethernet). STBY (yellow):  The transmitter is kept in standby, either by user input, an external signal to the remote interface or because an alarm condition has been detected, and the transmitter is set up as a MAIN transmitter. In standby the transmitter will not be able to send, even if a valid key signal is input to the unit. OUT (yellow):  Indicate that the transmitter is keyed and power is being generated.  The LED is activated based on RF detected on the output of the power amplifier, thus the LED gives an indication that power is generated. SWR (red):  Indicate that the SWR on the antenna is above the threshold value (app. 3:1). The transmitter will reduce the output power to the predefined low power level in order to protect the output stage. 3.1.6 Mic/Headset connector               Table 3.1-1, Mic/Headset connector, transmitter, pin out   The Mic/Headset connector is used for multiple purposes:   Microphone/Headset connector: Connect the microphone to the Mic input/Mic GND, the +12VDC can be used to power the microphone or a microphone amplifier.

If damage is evident, contact Jotron immediately and retain the original transit packaging. 1Variants may include:   -      Reduced maximum power level <50 W - PM modulation  - Frequency range 156 – 162MHz - Inband ptt signalling (option: 84358) - Inband squelch signalling (option: 84358)
  Jotron AS| TR7750C: Operators Manual  Installation Page 4-2 P/N: 84748 (F) 4.3 Installation into equipment cabinet The units may be installed into a standard 19” subrack with a height of 3U. The total subrack is divided into 84 TE units. The transmitter occupies 28 TE, the PSU occupies 14TE and the receiver unit occupies 14TE.  For a transceiver this leaves a free space of 28TE available for other equipment. Figure 4.3-1 shows some examples for installation into 19” subrack. From top to bottom the figure shows: 6 receivers in one subrack, 2 transmitters with PSU in one subrack and 3 transmitters without PSU (operated on DC) in one subrack.   Figure 4.3-1, Examples of various configurations 4.4 Antenna connectors The antenna should be of good quality with regards to gain and VSWR to obtain maximum performance. Recommended antennas can be Procom CXL-2-1LW/H (0dBd), Procom CXL-2-3C/M (3dBd) or similar. Make sure that the VSWR on the antenna is low, and that the cable from the transmitter to the antenna is of good quality to avoid mismatch and unnecessary losses. The antenna used with this radio should be installed at least 260cm away from any area where people are likely to be. A cable loss of 1 dB is the same as reducing the power output of a 50W transmitter to less than 40W. Similarly, a cable loss of 2 dB is the same as reducing the output power to less than 32W.  In areas were thunderstorms and lightning is a problem, surge arrestors should be mounted between the antenna connector and the antenna cable. The arrestors should be of good quality and be capable of handling the output power of the transmitter.  The antenna output of the transmitter is an N-type antenna connector on the back of the transmitter. The second connector (BNC-type) is the output of the antenna switch and can be used to connect the input of a receiver. 4.5 AC and DC connectors Refer to section 3.4.2, 3.6.1 and 3.6.3 for voltages and connectors. 4.6 Remote signals Several remote signals are available on the rear interfaces of the radio units. These signals can be grouped into: Audio signals, Key signals, Data interface signals and other signals. Note, for all interface signals, RJ45 connectors are used. As far as practically possible, the pairs used on a standard ethernet connection are used when a signal is input/output as a pair to the radio (e.g. audio lines). For interconnections between the transmitter and receiver, and for interconnection to a
  Jotron AS| TR7750C: Operators Manual  Installation Page 4-3 P/N: 84748 (F) distribution panel with RJ45 connectors, standard Cat5E, ethernet cable should be used. This is a good quality, screened cable, with 1 to 1 connections between the two connectors. Below is an overview of the signals available and their primary use. Refer to chapter 3.2 and 0 for and overview of the different connectors.  4.6.1 REM connector (receiver) and RX connector (transmitter)  TX - REM/RX RX - REM PIN NAME DESCRIPTIONPin no Pin no1 1RS485+ RS485 - serial communication2 2RS485- RS485 - serial communication3 3LINE_P RX Audio 600ohm balanced4 4TX BUSY TTL L=transmitting (RX pullup)5 5RX BUSY TTL L=receiving (TX pullup)6 6LINE_N RX Audio 600ohm balanced7 7ALARM Alarm (TTL) I/O TRX alarm8 8GND GroundCABLE4 pairsRJ45 - Cat 5E, FTP  Table 4.6-1, Transceiver, transmitter – receiver interconnections  The RX connector on the transmitter unit has a special function, and is normally used only in a “transceiver” configuration. When connecting the signals on the transmitter RX connector with the signals on the receivers REM connector, the following functionality is added to the transmitter and receiver:   The receiver audio line (p.3 and p.6) is input to the transmitter.  This enables the possibility to monitor the audio from the receiver from the transmitter headphone connector, allowing only one plug to be used for a combined headset/microphone. In addition, it enables the possibility to use a 2 wire interface to the transmitters audio input line for the combined transmitter and receiver audio. Finally, it enables the functionality to monitor both the transmitted audio and the received audio on the monitor output (TA-AUX2) line on the transmitter.   A RX Busy signal (p.5) is input to the transmitter from the receiver. This signal signals the transmitter that the RX is busy. This is used in VDL operation.   A TX Busy signal (p.4) is output from the transmitter to the receiver. This signal signals the receiver that the TX is busy (transmitting). This is used in VDL operation, and to mute the receiver while transmitting (see table below).   A receiver alarm in/out is connected to the transmitter alarm in/out. This enables the functionality that the complete transceiver (both receiver and transmitter unit) will enter into alarm state if one of the units fails. This is useful if the complete transceiver should be switched to a backup transceiver.   The RS485 serial lines from both units are connected in parallel. This is useful to have only one connection point for the RS485 on the transceiver for remote control.

The Select signal is used to select or deselect (inhibit) a particular unit. By deselecting a unit, the unit will enter into standby and can not be used for radio communication. However, all other functionality of the radio units is operational when the radio is in the standby state. The pinout and signals are equal on the transmitter and the receiver unit, except the ALARM (REM, p.7) pin. This pin has a fixed +5V pull-up on the receiver, while the pull-up is configurable on the transmitter.

The radio can be set up with an internal pull-up to +12V if desired.   ALARM (REM, pin 7) Same as the signal above, but this signal is referenced to GND.   SELECT (AUX1, pin 3 and 6) This input is connected to an optocoupler. The SELECT requires an external voltage to operate. One way to use the SELECT signal is in conjunction with the ALARM output signal from another radio unit. If the ALARM signal (ALARM_P and ALARM_N) on a primary (main) radio is connected to the SELECT_P and SELECT_N on a secondary (backup) radio, then automatic switchover from the main to the standby radio is performed when the main radio detects an alarm.

If the KEY_OUT is used for external equipment that used relays for switching the RF, it is necessary to delay the RF output, this can be done with a software setting, see below.   TXLOW_P, TXLOW_N (AUX2, pin 4 and 5) This input is used to immediately switch the transmitter into low power. The input requires an external pull-up to work. The low power level can be adjusted with a software setting.    Menu path: Radio control ► Parameter Range Default Details

The low power level is the output power of the transmitter when the transmitter is set to low power, either by a command or by an external input signal. 30 dBm corresponds to 1W output, 41 dBm is 12W ouput.  Menu path: TX config ► Parameter Range Default Details Keying (TX) RF delay 0 – 200 ms 0 (OFF) This setting is useful when the transmitter is used together with external equipment such as T/R relays, power amplifier or other equipment that includes RF switchover relays. Since the RF switching in the transmitter is done electronically, the RF is produced in less than 10ms after the PTT signal is detected. It could be harmful for the external relays if the RF is applied to them before switchover has occurred. In order to delay the RF carrier this parameter should be used under such circumstances.  A reasonable setting should be in the order of 40-50 ms.

This section details how this is done and the range of all parameters. Since the radio units contains no manual tuning points or switches, all parameters can in principal be set from the front panel, however except in some rare occasions, most parameters should be left at their default (factory preset) values. There are 4 user levels that can be selected to limit the user access to certain parameters. The user levels can be set on one of the data interface ports. There is also a way to override the user levels, described in the technical manual. These user levels are:  Restricted  Limits front panel operation to selecting preset channels and adjusting     audio output levels and display appearance. Use this level when the      radio units are used   from a remote position or in cases where the     user should be restricted to use preset channels only (1 – 100).  Operation  Same as restricted, but in addition the local user has full access to     changing and storing frequencies, and to change the squelch level.  Technician  This level gives the local user access to the most used installation     specific parameters (line levels, output power, etc.) and should be                     used when installing or maintaining the radio units.  SysOp    This level gives unlimited access to all parameters within the radio      units and should be used with care.

Keying Inband trig level -40 to -10 dBm -30 The level of the tone used to key the transmitter on the 600ohm input line.  The value is given in dBm (absolute level related to 600 ohm).  Values above the limit will key the transmitter. See also Keying source and Inband frequency. Keying TX Timeout OFF | 15-300 s 1s steps OFF Set the timeout for the key signal. If the PTT is pressed longer than this timeout, the transmitter will automatically stop transmitting. The transmitter will automatically reset the timer when the key signal is released. Keying RF delay 0 – 200 ms 0 (OFF) This setting is useful when the transmitter is used together with external equipment such as T/R relays, power amplifier or other equipment that includes RF switchover relays. Since the RF switching in the transmitter is done electronically, the RF is produced in less than 10ms after the PTT signal is detected. It could be harmful for the external relays if the RF is applied to them before switchover has occurred. In order to delay the RF carrier this parameter should be used under such circumstances.  A reasonable setting should be in the order of 40-50 ms.

Calibrate Ref oscillator -127 – +128 0 This setting is used to fine adjust (calibrate) the reference oscillator of the receiver. The full range is approximately 10 ppm. This setting should be used with care, and only when a calibrated frequency measuring instrument is used to measure the frequency of the receiver. The exact frequency of the receiver can be determined either by connecting a spectrum analyzer to the antenna connector of the receiver and  measure the leakage of the LO output (45 MHz above the operating frequency) – or by using a radio test set to measure the bandwidth of the receiver and adjust until centre is on the operating frequency. Calibrate RSSI reading -10 to +10 dB 0 dB In order to measure the RSSI level exactly, there is a provision to calibrate the reading. Normally the reading is within +/-2 dB without calibration, but it can be useful if to signals are being compared.
