A P-2000/C-2000/RT-2000 Operator’s Manual Introduction The Wulfsberg "2000" family of Flexcomm products are comprised of the P-2000 panel mount transceiver and the RT-2000 remote mount transceiver which is controlled by the C-2000 control head. The P-2000 and RT-2000 are capable of being populated with one or two ITM's (Internal Transceiver Modules) covering any combination of the following frequency bands: VHF 136-174 MHz, UHF -1 (403-470 MHz), UHF -2 (450-520 MHz) and UHF800 (806-870 MHz). For applications where multiple points of user operation are required, one or more C-2000's can be added. For purposes of this manual the term "P-2000" shall be used to describe a P-2000 or C-2000/RT-2000 installation. In both systems, the features and user interface is identical. Features The P-2000 provides a host of powerful features, including: • Multi-band operations: One or Two ITM's covering any combination of the following frequency bands: • 136 - 174 MHz (10/1 Watt Transmit Power) • 403 - 470 MHz (10/1 Watt Transmit Power) • 450 - 520 MHz (10/1 Watt Transmit Power) • 806 - 870 MHz (3/1 Watt Transmit Power) • Clear and bright Color LCD display showing Active/Standby channel selection along with other critical operational information. • 255 Preset channel memory in each internal transceiver module. • The powerful yet incredibly simple user interface that allows the user to select channels using the firm tactile feedback keypad or rotary knobs. • Modulation types available in the P-2000 include FM analog, P25 Digital conventional, P25 Trunking and Motorola 3600 Baud Trunking. Transceivers are capable of operating on 12.5 kHz, 20.0 kHz, and 25.0 kHz channels depending on options. • Multiple types of encryption are available as options (AES, DES, DES-XL, DES-OFB, DVP and DVI). In addition, MDC1200 OTAR and P25 OTAR are standard in all models that include encryption capability. • One or Two microphone/headset interfaces are supported. This provides retrofit applications the ability to use both transceivers even if only one microphone/headset port is available on the aircraft audio panel system. If two microphone/headset ports are used, the P-2000 is capable of independent operation of each ITM. In other words, one user can be operating on FM1 while the other user independently uses FM2. • Advanced multi-radio modes, such as Relay, Simulcast and Relay-Simulcast. • Programming port on the front of the panel allows for computer loading of channel information and encryption key loading.

A P-2000/C-2000/RT-2000 Operator’s Manual • Wulfsberg's exclusive QMEM (Quick Memory) function allows for fast access to preset memory channels. Transceiver Overview The Wulfsberg 2000 family of radio products are FM Tactical transceivers that incorporates one or two transceiver modules and control functions into a single panel mount unit (P-2000) or a panel mount control head (C-2000) and remote mount RT-2000 Transceiver. Part number variations of the unit exist for any combination of the following frequency bands: 138-174 MHz, 403-470 MHz, 450-520 MHz, and 806-870 MHz. Each transceiver module with the exception of the 806-870 MHz band can transmit with 1 or 10 Watts transmit power. The 800 MHz unit produces 1 and 3 watts transmit power. The P-2000 can operate by itself or in conjunction with the C-2000 control display acting as a remote slave control. Input voltage is 28 volts DC and the keypad is backlit from either 28VDC, 5 VDC or 5 VRMS AC. The Wulfsberg C-2000 is a control display unit that can be used as a slave control head with a P-2000 panel mount transceiver, or as a primary or slave control head for the RT- 2000 remote transceiver. Versions of the C-2000 include black faceplate and options for either Standard or NVG compatible displays. Input voltage is 28 volts DC and the keypad is backlit from either 28 VDC, 5 VDC or 5 VRMS. The Wulfsberg RT-2000 is a remote mounted transceiver that incorporates one or two transceiver modules in a remote mounted unit. It must be controlled by at least one C-2000 control head. Additional C-2000's can be added to the system for multi-positional control of the transceiver. Part number variations of the unit exist for any combination of the following frequency bands: 138-174 MHz, 403-470 MHz, 450-520 MHz, and 806-870 MHz. Each transceiver module with the exception of the 806-870 MHz band can transmit with 1 or 10 Watts transmit power. The 800 MHz unit produces 1 and 3 watts transmit power. Operationally a P-2000 or C-2000/RT-2000 system operates identically with the exception of the PC/Keyloading interface. For a P-2000 the interface is located on the front of the P-2000. In a C-2000/RT-2000 system, the connector on the RT-2000 is used for PC/Keyloading functions. The connector on the C-2000 is not currently used. For the purposes of this operators manual the use of the phrase “P-2000” will be used to cover both P-2000 and C2000/RT-2000 systems.

A P-2000/C-2000/RT-2000 Operator’s Manual The Home Page The HOME PAGE is the primary operational page of the P-2000. The HOME PAGE becomes visible when the P2000 is ready for user input, immediately after the power up and initialization sequences have completed. When viewing the HOME PAGE, Radio 1 (Also called FM1 or transceiver #1) is always displayed on the top section. Radio 2 is always displayed on the bottom section. All keypad-initiated operations are performed on the active radio. The active radio easily distinguished by the bright blue color. The cursor is the square box that is located either around the channel number or around the channel alpha identifier. It can be quickly toggled between the channel number and alpha identifier using the cursor knob. The following illustration is an example of what the HOME PAGE looks like. CURSOR FM 1 Discreet Indicators FM 1 Information ACTIVE Channel STANDBY Channel FM 2 Information Channel Alpha Identifier System Status Information The home page is divided into 3 areas – FM 1 information (top), FM 2 information (middle), and an area for system status or system prompts (bottom). In the picture above notice that the area in blue contains the information for FM 1. FM 1 will always be on the top. The names “FM1”, “FM2” can be changed in the system setup so that users can change it to something more meaningful like “VHF”, or “MAIN”. ACT/SBY - The normal operating mode of the P-2000 is very similar to most ATC COMM radios. The user tunes the Standby channel and then “Flip-flops” it into the Active channel position using the TRANSFER button. The radio is loaded with Active channel. The standby channel is ONLY used as a scratchpad for selecting the next channel. As an alternative to using the ACTIVE/STANDBY mode, the operator can press and hold the transfer button for 3 seconds and the STANDBY channel will disappear and now the user can tune the active channel directly. Either mode can be selected in the System Setup Mode as the default mode of operation. Notice the square box (CURSOR) around the SBY channel number 104. This indicates the system will tune the Standby channel number. The cursor can be moved around the alpha identifier and channels will be selected alphabetically using the Alpha Identifier. STATUS LINE - The status line is located on the very bottom of the display and it is where the user will be prompted to either input more information via the keypad, or where the Message Indictor will show there is a system message to view. In this case the user should put the MSG button to show the Message page. Page 8 of 39 P-2000 Operators Manual Oct 2003 Publication No. 150-049105 Rev. A P-2000/C-2000/RT-2000 Operator’s Manual Discreet Indicators – The following discreet indicators apply to both FM1 and FM2. ACTIVE Channel FM 1 Discreet Indicators Channel Alpha Identifier STANDBY Channel FM1 This helps the user know the information in this block is for the transceiver located in FM #1 Position. This indicates that the audio for that transceiver has been turned muted. To un-mute the audio, change the volume on that radio to something other than “0”. TX This indicates the transceiver is in the transmit mode. RX This indicates the transceiver is receiving a signal. DIR This indicates the transceiver has been put into DIRECT mode. Direct mode is also called “Talkaround”, “Car-to-Car”, or “Simplex”. PVT This indicates the transceiver has been put into Private mode and will use the encryption system embedded in the transceiver. This mode is not available if a channel is not programmed for encryption. SCAN This indicates the transceiver has been put into Scan mode. You can always get back to the HOME PAGE by pressing the HOME button one or more times. Page 9 of 39 P-2000 Operators Manual Oct 2003 Publication No. 150-049105 Rev.

Several version number and copyright pages appear on the display while the unit performs a self-test and initializes the attached radio systems. When initialization is complete, the HOME PAGE will appear on the display. To power the P-2000 OFF, press and hold the PWR button for 3 seconds. The following message flashes on the display several times: Continue to hold the PWR button until the message stops flashing and the display turns off. If aircraft power is removed while the P-2000 is in operation, the P-2000 will store the following information to memory so that when power is re-applied the system will be at the same operating point: 1. Current active and standby channels for FM1 and FM2. 2. Current volume levels for FM1 and FM2. If the operator releases the “PWR” button prior to 3 seconds elapsing, the display will return it’s previous state. Page 10 of 39 P-2000 Operators Manual Oct 2003 Publication No. 150-049105 Rev. A P-2000/C-2000/RT-2000 Operator’s Manual Setting the Display Brightness When the user presses the DIM button, the display brightness adjustment display appears. When the value knob is turned clockwise, the display brightness increases in intensity. When the value knob is turned counter clockwise, the display brightness decreases in intensity. The Brightness display disappears when no value knob activity has been present for more than 2 seconds. Setting the Volume Level When you first power on the P-2000, the volume levels for both transceivers will be reset to the level that was active when the unit was powered down. You can change the volume level as follows. When the user turns either of the volume knobs, the volume adjustment display will appear. When the upper volume knob is turned, the volume adjustment display will appear on the upper half of the screen, and will adjust the volume on FM1 transceiver. Likewise, when the lower volume knob is turned, the volume adjustment display will appear on the lower half of the screen, and will adjust the volume on FM2 transceiver. The display below depicts the volume adjustment display when the upper volume knob has been turned. Turning the volume knob clockwise will increase the volume level, while turning the knob counter clockwise will decrease the volume level. The current volume level will be displayed within the display. If the volume is turned all the way down to the off position, the bar will turn red and the Mute indicator will be displayed on the main page. To test the current volume level, press the volume knob and noise should be heard in the headset. The volume adjustment display will automatically disappear if when no knob turning activity has occurred for more than 2 seconds.

A P-2000/C-2000/RT-2000 Operator’s Manual Selecting the Active Transceiver To make FM1 or FM2 the “active transceiver” means that the keypad/rotary knobs will perform operations on that transceiver. The active transceiver is always highlighted in a bright blue color. As shown in the picture below, FM1 is the active transceiver. FM #1 Select To make FM1 the active transceiver push the FM #1 SELECT BUTTON as shown above. Pushing the FM #2 select button will make FM2 the active transceiver and the blue highlight will be moved to the FM2 area of the display as shown below. FM #2 Select When the P-2000 operating in MODE 1 (only one headset shared between two transceivers), the active transceiver is the one that will be used for transmitting. In mode 1, the transceivers (FM1 and FM2) will have their receive audio summed together and sent to the headset. The operator must chose which transceiver will be used when they want to transmit.

A P-2000/C-2000/RT-2000 Operator’s Manual Selecting a Standby Channel Using the Cursor/Value Knob When the P-2000 first powers on, the selected channels will be set to those that were active when the unit was powered down. To select a different preset channel, do the following: Using the cursor knob, put the square cursor around the channel number. Turn the value knob until the channel is your desired channel. If you wish to make this your active channel, push the transfer button. Selecting a Channel Using the Keypad Occasionally, it is desirable to select a preset channel by entering its number via the keypad, rather than dialing it in with the cursor/value knobs. This can be performed as follows. When the user presses the CHAN key, the keypad channel entry mode will begin. This mode allows the user to tune a channel by inputting the desired channel’s number into a field via the keypad. The figure below depicts this mode of channel tuning. If no keypad input is received for more than 4 seconds, the operation will automatically cancel. If the user presses the HOME key, the operation will also cancel. When the user presses the ENTER key, the channel with the number input into the field will be loaded. If the input channel number is invalid, an error tone will sound, and the previous “good” channel will be reinstated. Page 13 of 39 P-2000 Operators Manual Oct 2003 Publication No. 150-049105 Rev. A P-2000/C-2000/RT-2000 Operator’s Manual Selecting a Channel by Alphanumeric Identifier To change the standby channel using the alpha identifier, use the cursor knob to move the cursor square around the alpha identifier as shown below. Turn the value knob until the channel is your desired channel. Notice that channels change alphabetically. Using the Direct/Repeat Feature The P-2000 supports both direct and repeat modes of operation. Any preset channel that has identical transmit and receive frequencies is considered a direct channel. If the transmit and receive frequencies are different, the P-2000 considers the channel a repeater channel. Repeater channels can be temporarily changed into direct channels by pressing the DIR button. This will temporarily copy the receive frequency into the transmit frequency. The direct mode indicator will light. The following illustration shows radio 1 in direct mode. Direct Mode Indicator NOTE: Pressing the DIR button on a direct channel has no effect.

Transmission will begin on the radio’s currently selected Active channel. During the transmission, the radio’s transmit indicator will light, and the channel’s transmit frequency will be displayed. The following illustration depicts FM #1 transmitting. Receiving The P-2000 is constantly monitoring its radios for reception. When a signal is received, the P-2000 will light the receive indicator for the receiving radio, and route the audio to the operator’s headset (Assuming the associated intercom switch is selected). The following illustration depicts FM #2 receiving. TX Indicator RX Indicator Enabling/Disabling Transceivers Transceivers cannot be individually powered off on the P-2000, however the volume level of either transceiver can be reduced to zero, effectively turning off the transceiver. The screen below shows what the display looks like when the audio level of a transceiver is set to zero. Notice the mute indicator is displayed and the level indicator turns red.

A P-2000/C-2000/RT-2000 Operator’s Manual Repeater Mode Repeater mode is not a specific mode of the P-2000 but an airborne repeater can effectively created by preprogramming specific channels and then using the RELAY MODE. It is also necessary for the two transceivers, FM1 and FM2 to use the same band. In other words, you cannot perform a repeater function with a P-2000 that has FM1 operating in the 136-174 MHz band and FM2 operating in the 800 MHz band. Say a P-2000 channel normally uses a repeater that is not working and an area is without communications on that channel. To act like an airborne repeater the operator must program a special preset channel with the receive and transmit frequencies reversed. We suggest giving this channel a special ALPHA ID that helps the operator recognize it as a special repeater channel associated with the original channel. To operate as an airborne repeater perform the following steps: • While on the HOME PAGE set the ACTIVE channel to the channel you normally use the repeater on FM 1. • Put FM1 in DIRECT MODE by pressing the DIR button. • Select the special channel associated with the repeater on FM2. • Go into the RELAY MODE. • If the operator wants to talk select FM2. You can always get back to the HOME PAGE by pressing the HOME button one or more times. Page 24 of 39 P-2000 Operators Manual Oct 2003 Publication No. 150-049105 Rev. A P-2000/C-2000/RT-2000 Operator’s Manual XTS-Emulation Mode This page shall allow the user to operate the RT-2000 in XTS-Emulation mode. In this mode of operation, the user can operate FM1 or FM2 transceivers very much like a Motorola handheld. This page is intended to be used when special functions of the internal transceivers cannot be accessed with P-2000 user interface. The figure below depicts the layout for this page. The XTS-Emulation page will show what the internal transceiver normally would show on its screen. The 6 soft keys on the handheld are accessed using virtual buttons selectable via the cursor knob. Pressing ENTER while one of these keys is selected shall send the appropriate “key pressed” message to the radio. Pressing any of the keypad keys sends the appropriate “key pressed” message to the radio. Pressing ENTER while the “back” button is selected returns the operator to the previous screen. Phone Patch Mode The P-2000 can patch into the phone systems only by using the XTS-Emulation mode. This is NOT a cellular phone.

A P-2000/C-2000/RT-2000 Operator’s Manual Steps to Successful Setup and Operation While we would like to pull products out of the box and immediately start to use them, this system is one that takes just little work to get to that point. First READ THE OPERATORS MANUAL!!!! This will familiarize you with the buttons and display pages of the system. The following checklist will help installers setup the P-2000 or C2000/RT-2000. 1. Note all part numbers of components in your system.. P-2000 Part Number = _______________________________________ C-2000 Part Number = _______________________________________ RT-2000 Part Number = _______________________________________ Please write down the frequency bands of the transceivers inside the P-2000/RT-2000. FM #1 = ___________________ FM #2 = ___________________ 2. Using the SYSTEM Programming page 2, select whether the unit will be operated in Mode 1(only one mic/headset port) or Mode 2 (two independent mic/headset ports). Review the other options and configure as desired. Return to the HOME page. 3. Put the P-2000/RT-2000 in CPS mode for FM #1. 4. Connect a PC to the programming port of the P-2000/RT-2000 and run the Motorola CPS software. 5. Using the CPS software, read the codeplug of FM #1. Save this first in case you need to return to factory settings. 6. Program personalities and Zones/Channels. It is very important to use good channel identifiers so operators can efficiently determine the purpose of the channel. Whenever possible, use the same channel name the ground units use so that when calling out channel changes both the aircraft and the ground units can use the same channel names. These steps require significant knowledge of the Motorola software. We encourage enlisting the help of someone familiar with Motorola CPS software to successfully program the internal transceivers. 7. Save the modified codeplug on the harddrive and then download it into FM1. 8. Do the above for FM #2 if applicable. 9. Upon the exit from CPS mode, the P-2000/RT-2000 will automatically go into “LEARN” mode. At this time the unit is interrogating the internal transceiver modules for information about channels that were programmed during CPS operations. Wait until the display indicates successful completion of this process. 10. Validate that all channels programmed during CPS are now functional on both FM #1 and FM #2 transceivers.
