Low power level 30 – 41 dBm 41 dBm Set the low power level of the transmitter in 1
1 dB steps dB step. 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.

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.

Audio Input source Auto | Line | Mic Auto The input source determines where the audio
| modgen | VoIP is applied to the transmitter.
ƒ Auto: Uses line input for when a
key signal is detected on one of
the remote connectors and mic
input if the key signal is detected
on the front panel connector.
ƒ Line: Uses the 600 ohm line
interface as the audio source
ƒ Mic: Uses the microphone input as
the audio source
ƒ Modgen: Uses the internal
modgen as audio input source – se
also Modgen frequency
ƒ VoIP: Uses the IP interface as the
audio source (availability depends
on radio specifications).
Audio Mic sensitivity -40 – 0 dB -25 dB Set the gain (sensitivity) for the microphone
1 dB steps connected to the front panel connector.
Use this setting to increase or decrease the
gain if needed. Setting depends on
microphone used.
Audio Line sensitivity -40 – 0 dBm -17 dBm Set the sensitivity of the 600 ohm line input.
1 dB steps This setting determines where the VOGAD
(automatic gain control) start to operate.
Thus if it is set to -17 dBm, levels above -17
dBm will be modulated with 85% (default
setting).
For levels below -17 dBm the modulation will
decrease linearly.
Audio Line termination OFF | 600 ohm 600 ohm Set the termination of the input line to either
OFF or 600 ohm. Normally this is set to 600
ohm, but can be set to OFF on one of the
radios, if two transmitters are connected in
parallel. This is to maintain the 600 ohm
impedance on the lines.
Audio Line mute level OFF or OFF Below this level, the line input will be muted.
-40 to -10dBm Used where noisy lines are connected to the
1 dB steps transmitter to avoid unnecessary noise on
the produced RF signal during periods of
silence (Automatic transmissions; VOLMET,
ATIS)
Audio Monitor output Headset | Monitor Set where the monitor output signal and the
Monitor output output received audio (if a receiver is connected) is
routed.
Can be set to the headset connector, the 600
ohm monitor line output or both.
The monitor signal is the demodulated signal
detected on the output of the transmitter.

Keying Source Mic, line, txkey, Mic, txkey Determines what signal that will be used as
txgnd, inband the source for keying the transmitter.
Any combinations can be set
ƒ Mic: Local PTT input from a
microphone, where the PTT is
connected to pin 4 and 8(gnd) on
the Mic/headset connector.
ƒ Line: Keying from a phantom
signal on the line input. Pin 3 and 6
on the Rem/TR connector.
ƒ Txkey: The transmitter is keyed by
an external voltage on the
TXKEY_P and TXKEY_N input
pins. Signals located on Pin 7 and
8 on the | connector.
ƒ Txgnd: The transmitter is keyed by
a signal on the TXKEY_G input pin
Signals are located on Pin 4 and 8
(gnd) on the REM/TR connector.
ƒ Inband: The transmitter is keyed
using an inband tone (see also
inband frequency and inband
sensitivity)
Keying Inband frequency 100 – 5000 Hz 5000 Set the frequency to be used for the inband
10 Hz steps tone that will be used to key the transmitter.
By selected the tone frequency to use, the
transmitter will automatically calculate the
notch filter to use an insert this into the audio
path. Applicable to the line interface input
only.
Keying Inband sensitivity -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 Timeout OFF | 15-300 s OFF Set the timeout for the key signal. If the PTT
1s steps 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.

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 center 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.
VDL2 Output RS232, RS485, tcpip Determines to which port data received with
tcpip the VDL2 waveform is output
VDL2 Station ID 0 - 16777215 0 If the station ID is set different from the
default value (0) the radio will filter all
incoming messages, and only output those
messages that are addressed for the
specific ground station ID.
(And broadcast messages)
VDL2 Provider Code 0 - 16777215 16777215 Used to set a provider code that is used to
filter out messages to “all ground stations of
a particular provider”. Set to default (0xffffff)
to enable “all providers”.
VDL2 Format BER test AVLC Defines the format of the VDL2 output
AVLC single single message using the TCP/IP connection.
AVLC multi ƒ BERtest: The receiver omits FEC
and bit destuffing. Messages are
output as “raw” data. Used to test
conformance to EN301481-1
tests.
ƒ AVLC single: Messages are
output as single AVLC frames
ƒ AVLC multi: Messages are output
as multi AVLC frames (up to 7 in
each message)
VDL2 Mute on transmit On/Off On Determinates if the receiver is muted (no
output) during transmissions from own TX. If
set to Off, own generated messages will be
detected and output on the TCP/IP
connection. The filters above (Station ID and
Provider Code) will not have any effect on
own messages.
VDL2 CO Trap Interval 0 – 60 0 The interval on which a “CO” trap (Channel
occupancy) are sent to the host.
The CO is calculated for the time period set,
ie. If set to 15 the CO will reflect the channel
occupancy

Access control SysOp, SysOp Set the user access level for local control.
Technician, This setting limits the availability of some
Operator, menus, depending on the access level. In
Restricted order to set the access level from the user
interface, a special hardware key must be
inserted into the microphone/headset
connector. Details of the key available in the
technical manual.
Set language Depending on English Set the language to use on the user
model interface. Availability of different languages
depends on specifications when ordering
the receiver.
Alarm config Alarm pin pullup Disabled | Enabled The ALARM_OUT_P and ALARM_OUT_N
Enabled output pins on AUX1 is used to signal that
the radio has an alarm. This parameter
applies a pullup voltage to ALARM_OUT_P
when there are no alarms present. When an
alarm is detected the relay contact close.
Alarm config Select polarity High | Low Low The SELECT_IN_P and SELECT_IN_N
input pins on AUX1 can be used to select /
deselect (Standby) the radio with an
external signal (e.g. alarm from a main
radio). This setting determines if the radio
should be operational on a low select input
signal or a high select input signal.
RS485 Bitrate 1200 – 115200 1200 Set the bit rate to use on the RS485 port
RS485 Address 1 – 255 1 Set the address to use on the RS485. In a
remote system using the RS485
communication port, all units that are
interconnected need to have a unique
address in order to avoid collisions and
misinterpretation of data.
RS485 Protocol Legacy | Legacy The protocols are described in the data
standard manual.
Legacy uses a protocol where the 9. bit is
used for address recognition, this is the
protocol used on the previous radio models
(TA7450, RA7202) and is compatible with
the RACS II PC software and the RCU
remote control unit.
Standard is an eight bit protocol that uses
the multidrop capability of the RS485 bus.
For more information on protocols, refer to
the SW manual.
