MSF5000 CLB analog programing with suitcase

radioactive69 · Post by **radioactive69** » Fri Feb 02, 2007 3:32 pm

I have the suitcase programer for the CLB MSF5000 eproms. I don't need a chip programed.

The question I have is: as I go through the programing menus on the suitcase, there are many abreviations or codes (IE: SC SCA CA C SA etc.) I don't know what they mean.

Does someone have a document outlining these codes or can you direct me to something on or offline to read up on these?

I don't have a manual that might outline these codes and can only guess as to their meaning. I have programmed several chips with few problems but, it's the problem ones I am trying to eleminate.

I have searched old posts here but, found none helpful.
Doug.

Doug,
Although I'm more familiar with the digital trays than I am with the suitcase programmer would have to say that what you mentioned refers to reciever control and station holdin etc. The qualifiers are as follows:
sca=audio squelch, pl detect, aux detect
sc=audio squelch and pl detect
a=aux detect
c=pl detect
s=audio squelch
on=receiver always unsquelched
off=receiver never unsquelched
sa=audio squelch, aux detect
ca=pl detect aux detect
The digital tray may hold more options but you get the picture.

Is this the Vaca Schwartz?

If so, I am using your suitcase programer.

That does help. However, what does "D" mean in that RX portion?
There is an "SCAD" option.

Is there a programing manual Part# for this thing?

D stands for RX PL DS switch causes the PTT to revert to carrier squelch operation.

Would this D toggle mean: that if in repeater mode, it won't key unless both COS and PL Detect are properly met?

I use outboard controllers on most of these.

Where would the "A" auxiliary detect show up on the audio-control board?

I am looking at what use this might provide for outside controllers.

It will be a very long shot to find one of these manuals but, maybe some one can bring one to Dayton.

Thank you, Doug.
