The T2008 Power Supply is a mains operated power supply designed to provide the DC
supply requirements of the T2000 Series II radios. It uses switch mode technology to
control the regulation of the output voltage, which results in a power supply with a
higher temperature rating, improved efficiency and greater reliability.
The power supply can either be operated with the radio sitting on top as a desk top unit,
or with the radio and power supply detached as two separate units (refer to Section
8.1.5, “Installation”).
The T2008 has protection circuits for overcurrent, overtemperature and overvoltage pro-
tection circuitry. Current limiting is included to restrict the peak current to about 9.5A.
In addition, a self-restoring thermal shutdown keeps the temperature of the switching
transistor within the ‘safe operation area ratings’. The point of thermal shutdown is also
dependant on the load current, to allow for a higher duty cycle rating at lower output
currents. The output voltage and thermal shutdown points are factory preset.
The power supply also has a limited capability to float charge a lead acid battery under
constant voltage conditions (refer to Section 8.1.5, “Installation”).

If the power supply is operated at high output currents and/or a high duty cycle rate
for a prolonged period of time (e.g. more than 10 minutes), the heatsink will become
very hot. Do not touch.
Do not operate the power supply in a sealed cabinet. Ensure that there is an adequate
airflow past the unit, and in particular past the heatsink at the back of the unit.

When using a T2008 and radio at a fixed location, it is advisable to check the maximum
allowable transmit power, as defined by the local radio regulatory authority. This is
commonly in the range of 1 to 5W, and exceeding this output power may result in pros-
ecution.
!"!)&
If the duty cycle (33%) of the radio and power supply is likely to be exceeded, then the
radio output power must be reduced to ensure that the current drawn from the power
supply does not exceed its rating.
It is advisable to check the current drawn from the power supply, regardless of duty
cycle, if the radio is operated at full power (25W). Variations in antenna VSWR can
result in current drain, which may exceed the rating of the supply.

The mains supply is connected to the primary of the transformer via the supply cord,
input fuse and on/off switch.
A conventional bridge rectifier is used across the secondary winding of the transformer,
with both positive and negative leads being isolated from earth. Five PCB mounted
smoothing capacitors are used to produce a 23V DC bus from the 18Vrms secondary of
the transformer. The ripple on the DC bus is 4V peak to peak, with an output current of
6A.
The front panel LED is illuminated when mains power is applied.
$
Voltage regulation is provided by the complementary Darlington configuration of Q1
and Q2. The switching of this pair is derived directly from IC1 (TL494).
When Q1 is turned on, current flows in inductors L1, L2 and L3 to supply the output.
Capacitors C6 and C7 hold the output voltage at a nominal 13.8V. When Q1 turns off,
the current flowing in the inductors continues to flow, via diode D1.
C8, C9 and L3 form a common mode filter to suppress conducted noise at the output.
!!
A pulse width modulating IC (IC1) controls the switching of Q1 and thus the regulation
of the output voltage. A voltage divider (R4, R5 and RV1) converts the output voltage to
a 5V nominal level. It is then compared to IC1s temperature compensated internal 5V
reference. The length of time Q1 is turned on is proportional to the difference between
the reference and the output voltage. Feedback compensation is provided by C10, C11,
R6 and R7, while R10 improves the transient response for the feedback circuit.
!#&
Current limiting is provided by monitoring the voltage across the current sense resistor
(R18). When the current is increased to approximately 9.5A, the voltage on pin 15 of IC1
decreases to a point where the pulse width of the switching waveform decreases. In
addition, a 10A fuse is provided in the secondary circuit of the power supply.
 +
,%&
Overvoltage protection is provided by diode D2 and fuse F2. D2 is a 16V zener transient
suppression diode that reacts instantly to overvoltage DC or spikes. If an overvoltage
condition persists, causing excessive power dissipation in D2, it will become short cir-
cuit, causing F2 to blow. F2 will need to be replaced before operation of the power sup-
ply is possible. D2 will need to be replaced to restore overvoltage protection.
$$(
Transistor Q3 is mounted on the heatsink and its junction temperature therefore closely
follows that of both the heatsink and Q1. Q3 is biased by R12 and RV2. As the tempera-
ture of the heatsink increases, the temperature of the base- emitter junction of Q3 also
increases, which results in the Vbe of Q3 decreasing. At 95°C, the base-emitter voltage is
exceeded by the biasing voltage, and Q3 switches on. As a result, Q4 turns off, and the
‘deadtime pin’ (pin 4 of IC1) is pulled high. The ‘deadtime’ is now 100%, which means
Q1 is completely turned off.

The T2008 power supply is designed to provide the DC supply requirements of the Tait
T2000 two way radios. It can be operated either with the radio sitting on top as a desk
top unit, or with the radio and power supply detached as two separate units. The bot-
tom case includes two screw recesses for wall mounting. The two way radio then can be
mounted in its cradle next to the supply, or operated away from it, e.g. on a desk top,
etc.
If the radio and the power supply are operated away from each other, an extension cable
for the DC supply would have to be used. To keep the voltage drop of this extension
cable reasonably low, the wiring should be of sufficient gauge to carry the required load.
It is recommended that a minimum wire size of 1.5mm is used.
The power supply requires a mains supply of 230V nominal 50Hz or 115V nominal
60Hz, as set out in Section 8.1.2.
If the power supply is run at a high duty cycle rate, high continuous output currents
and/or high mains input voltage, it will generate a considerable amount of heat. An
adequate flow of cooling air past the unit, particularly past the heatsink, is therefore
essential for reliable operation. Do not operate the power supply in a completely
enclosed cabinet.
 Do not touch the heatsink after prolonged heavy duty operation. Keep the
heatsink away from anything affected by heat (plastics, etc).
The microphone clip supplied with every power supply may be attached to the side of
the top cover with the supplied screws and spacer, which fits between the clip and
cover. The hook switch monitor wire should be connected as shown in the wiring dia-
gram.

The power supply has a limited capability to float charge a lead acid battery under con-
stant voltage conditions. The performance is limited by the way the power supply’s
continuous output current rating is limited (typically 4.5A at 20°C).
The following diagram shows an external protection circuit, consisting of two diodes
with the appropriate ratings (i.e. 10A/50V), to be used when float charging a lead acid
battery. This circuit prevents damage to the power supply due to reverse current, or the
battery being connected with reverse polarity.
The current limit prevents charging from being excessive, should a discharged battery
be connected. The output voltage of the power supply does not compensate for the tem-
perature dependence of lead acid batteries.

The checks listed below have been included to provide assistance in locating faults. It is
sometimes convenient to disable a complete section of the power supply in order to iso-
late a fault. If individual sections are isolated the rest of the unit should operate nor-
mally (refer to Figure 8.1.2, “Typical Waveforms” for details).
!!$8
Faulty diodes and transistors can generally be found by a simple ohmmeter check, as
follows (an AVO model 8 or equivalent meter should be used for taking the measure-
ments, using only the medium or low resistance ranges):
Set the ohmmeter to the ohms x 1 range.
Measure the forward and reverse resistance of each junction. The resistance in one
direction should be low (generally 30 to 100Ω), and the resistance in the other
direction should be high. In a faulty transistor or diode, the junctions will usually
be either short or open circuited.
 Other components in the circuit may affect these readings unless the junctions
are isolated.
The collector current drawn by multijunction transistors is a further guide to their oper-
ating performance.

wiring behind the panel.
aIf drilling directly into metal, drill two 3.5mm holes in the appropriate locations
and secure the bracket with the supplied M4 self tapping screws.
bIf mounting the bracket to any other material, such as plastic, drill two 4.5mm
holes and attach the bracket with the M4 screws and captive nuts. Slide a captive
nut over the edge of the panel to align with each hole, ensuring that the screw will
pass through the larger hole to thread into the smaller hole.
cIf neither of the above methods is appropriate, M4 screws, nuts and shakeproof
washers are equally suitable.

Both the desktop microphone and the T2000 radio have an internal compressor and it is
advisable that the T2000 compressor be disabled to avoid the possibility of ‘hunting’.

level at the desktop microphone.

this situation, the output can be reduced using either of the procedures described
below:
1Change the value of R12 from 10k to 47k (refer to the circuit diagram). This
will result in a 10dB output reduction.

1The microphone LED is used to indicate ‘key pressed’. The LED is on for normal
operation and is off when a DTMF key is pressed.

DTMF tones.
3The operation of a DTMF key automatically operates the transmitter PTT and
holds it on for a short time after the release of the DTMF key. This is to hold the
transmitter on during interdigital pauses.

The scrambler option can be used in either trunked or conventional radios, and is ena-
bled/disabled by the auxiliary ( ) key (conventional models) or function ( )
key (trunked models). The scrambler uses a simple frequency inversion algorithm that
prevents casual eavesdropping by other radio users. After descrambling, the recovered
speech suffers from some degradation in clarity.

There are 2 groups of links on the underside of the T2000-A4500 PCB, the receive
(R) group and the transmit (T) group. Each group contains 6 bits that are pulled
logic high or low, by either solder links or zero ohm resistors.
The receive settings are set by links R-0 to R-5 and the transmit settings by links T-
0 to T-5. A short to the 5V line represents a ‘1’, and a short to ground represents a
‘0’.

The T2000-50 handsfree kit is designed for use with all T2000 Series II mobiles, and
allows communication through the normal PTT microphone, or ‘handsfree’ operation
through a directional microphone.
When ‘handsfree’ operation is being used, the transmitter is activated either by the foot-
switch (Manually Operated Transmit) or automatically, by detecting the sound of a
voice. The latter is known as the Voice Operated Transmit (VOX) mode. VOX operation
is only intended for use in quiet modern vehicles.
 With trunked radios, a call needs to be established before VOX or footswitch
becomes operative. Normal handsfree operation can be used on a conventional
channel.

3After manufacture, the T2000-50 PCB links are left open and will need to be cus-
tomer selected. For details of optional links, refer to the Link Options Table in the
circuit diagram.
Non-trunked radios: standard links are 4B and 5A.
4Set up the T2000-50, as described in Section 8.11.4, “T2000-50 Set-Up”.
A +5V logic signal is provided to indicate VOX activity (S21 pin 7). ‘VOX’ (violet
wire) and ‘ground’ (grey wire) are both available from the D-range assembly red
in-line connector.
A spare in-line connector is also included in the kit for interfacing to an appropri-
ate visual indicator e.g. an LED.
5Carefully fold the logic and T2000-50 PCBs back in position, guiding the D-range
connector through the hole provided in the T2000 chassis.
Check that no electrolytic capacitors are touching the T2000 chassis (e.g. C21 or
C51.)
6Secure using the three logic PCB retaining screws and the three M3x8 screws pro-
vided and refit the top cover.
Plug the D-range assembly provided in the kit into the D-range connector (S21).
 Holes are provided in the T2000 chassis for the D-range plug locking screws.

The handsfree directional microphone plugs into the T2000 via the D-range assembly
microphone socket. The positioning of the microphone is important for correct opera-
tion of the handsfree unit and some experimentation may be necessary to obtain the best
performance from the VOX.
The microphone should be mounted in a position 20cm or less from the driver.
The microphone location should be free from vibration.
The microphone must face the driver.

The footswitch plugs into the D-range interface via the black 2 way in-line connector. It
is recommended that the footswitch be screwed to the floor.
 The 3m lengths of the footswitch and microphone can be effectively extended
by fitting a standard 9 way D-range extender cable between the radio and the
D-range assembly. These extension cables are not included as standard but are
available from most computer outlets.

The radio may need reprogramming to accommodate the handsfree unit. The
key for the T2010, T2015 and T2020 or the key for trunked radios
must be programmed for latching if VOX mode is to be used. Refer to the T2000 pro-
gramming manual.
For T203X and T2040 radios, the ‘handsfree’ option will also need to be selected under
‘Specifications’ (refer to the ‘Specifications’ section of the programming manual).

Although the VOX circuitry has been designed to operate in varying conditions, it may
be necessary to change the minimum threshold for VOX operation.
Monitor TP5 without the directional microphone connected and adjust RV67. Turning
RV67 clockwise increases sensitivity, and anticlockwise decreases sensitivity.
 For the majority of applications, it is recommended that the setting is left at the
factory setting of 0.8V.

2Switch on the MOX (Manually Operated Transmit) PTT and check that the modu-
lation is at approximately 60% of full system deviation. Check that no audio path
is evident through the normal microphone.
Activate the PTT on the normal microphone and check that there is now an audio
path through the microphone.
3With no audio, adjust RV67 for 0.8V at TP5.
Remove the TCXO PCB to operate the /IN-LOCK signal and check that the DC
level now goes to 6.5V ±0.5V. Replace the TCXO.
4Increase the audio level by 10dB.
With all PTTs off, activate the or keys (radio is in VOX
mode).
Sweep the audio generator slowly from 1kHz to 100Hz and back again and check
that the transmitter keys between 700Hz ±70Hz and 250Hz ±25Hz.
When going from receive to transmit the radio should key instantly at these cut-
offs. When going from transmit to receive check there is a delay of approximately
1.5 seconds.
Check that VOX transmit is inhibited if the channel is busy (assuming LINK4B is
fitted).
5Switch on the MOX PTT and set the audio generator to 1kHz at a level of -50dBm
(3mV).
Monitor TP9 and check that the level on the scope is 1.2Vp-p ±0.2V.
Increase the audio level by 10dB and check that the level on the scope is about the
same.
Decrease audio level by 20dB. After observing the charging action of the compres-
sor, the level on the scope should be 0.4Vp-p ±0.1V.
Trunking only: The audio at TP9 should be there on an assigned channel, a
non-trunked channel or in test mode. When the radio is on a control channel or
hunting for a control channel, the audio should be muted.
6A final system check can be done with the directional microphone and footswitch.

Audio is fed into the preamplifier circuitry (Q1) from the electret microphone via pin 2
of the 9 way D-range (S21). The pre-amplified audio is then split and goes into the
speech bandpass filter and the noise filter.
The speech bandpass filter consists of a 4th order 250Hz high pass filter (IC1) and a gain
stage (IC1) with a 3kHz rolloff. Audio then goes into the compressor circuitry (IC1).
When PTT is requested by the logic circuitry, IC2 switches and the audio is driven into
the TX-LINE-IN at a low impedance. After the high pass filter, audio is tapped off into
the speech VOX filter (IC4), which provides a low pass cutoff of 700Hz. This, combined
with the previous high pass filter, gives the speech VOX filter cutoffs of 250Hz and
700Hz.
The second path of the audio after the preamplifier is to the noise filter (IC3). This con-
sists of a 2nd order high pass filter below 100Hz.
After the gain adjusting stages (IC3 & IC4) each filter goes into a precision rectifier (IC3
& IC4), where their appropriate DC level is presented to a comparator (IC3 pins 12, 13 &
14). The negative input has a potentiometer (RV67) providing a DC offset, which is used
to provide a minimum VOX threshold. This minimum threshold decreases with VOX
activity to provide some hysteresis. The negative input is also held high via IC2, pre-
venting the comparator switching until the synthesiser lock detect line (IN/LOCK) is
low. The positive input has a zener diode to prevent VOX activating when both inputs
are in saturation.
The switching circuitry after the comparator output has a slow decay provided by R69
and C31. IC5 will only allow a VOX PTT request if the AUX line has been taken high.
Two NAND gates in IC5 allow a handsfree PTT request (VOX or MOX) to proceed
unless the PTT-IN line has been taken low. A valid handsfree PTT request will mute the
ordinary microphone and switch IC2, whereas a PTT-IN signal will be mirrored on the
PTT line, without switching in the handsfree audio or muting the ordinary microphone.
The CALL line is used by trunking software to mute the handsfree audio when the
audio path has been invalidly switched in (i.e. on a control channel). Similarly, the BUSY
line is used to mute the audio if TX inhibit on busy is used.

Optional circuitry is provided by IC7 to inhibit the VOX signal from the received audio,
instead of BUSY. LINK4 is removed to disable the BUSY inhibit and the RX-AUDIO
inhibit is enabled by changing LINK5A to LINK5B.
Receiver gated audio is buffered by IC7 pins 12, 13 & 14 and split off to feed into the
VOX noise path (IC3 pins 5, 6 & 7) and also to a precision rectifier formed around IC7,
pins 1, 2 & 3. The rectified audio signal is compared by IC7 pins 5, 6 & 7, and operates
the inhibit circuit, Q14.
