You can do this but would need 4 800 MHz mobiles You can run these as one set of 2 mobiles (1 TX and 1 RX) Then the opposite on the other side. The trick is you need 2 telenetics modems that can run leased line backhaul You can wire up the receive audio of the mobile to the TX side of the 4 wire mod...

The “Spectra” end of the handset you are speaking of which goes into the back of A style control heads may not share the same impedance of the CDM and or maxtrac or similar microphones that can wire in well with a RJ45 biscuit box and proper 16 pin rear accessory kit.

Jay911, If you already have a trunking system built from another XTL, I would load your advanced key and do a drag and insert into your target radio file to not have to fill in all of those fields and risk an error. You would be best served to edit your donor radio CPG to a valid radio ID before you...

Evening Dfc2 I order to answer a similar issue for users I enabled zone for the ABC switch and programmed 3 zones where the first 2 zones had mission operation talk groups and the last zone was a conventional talkaround in all 16 channels so no matter if you were on zone A or B and on channel 8 or 1...

Evening Motofan, FWIW the Astro modem is voice band sensitive which means if there is poor frequency roll off in the audio link, the modems will constantly re-train I have been able to get Astro Modem to work across JPS NXU-2 boxes but it took some work to flatten the voice band response If you have...

Afternoon Escomm, When you are speaking of the bandwidth, are you asking about the bandpass bandwidth of the high and low side of the duplexer? The minimum seperation between transmit and receive frequencies will always stay at 1.5 Mhz Tx to Rx or 2.5 Mhz Tx to Rx. The flat pack duplexer from Fingu ...

Afternoon MotoFan, The rear ethernet port is a pass through of the front. You can program, link and monitor If you only have another GTR station, you can RT/RT the stations together over IP via the rear ports. Works great as a crossband repeater configuration with just a switch which can then offer ...

Morning Max, What you also need with that big RF relay is a Ramsey RFS1 kit or similar. This would trigger your large relay to switch between transmit and receive without having to use logic from the MCS2000 If you were to only use the MCS2000 for activation of the relay you would have to insert a l...

chartofmaryland

Morning All, I hope someone already covered the RTS to DTR where you on the DB25 side need to tie pin 4 to pin 20 together. The Astro traffic will not flow until you do on one end. Can be on both ends if you only want to make one cable or adapter. This plays whether you are using RJ45 to 45 or DB25 ...

Afternoon Otaku, Interesting, we experience SYS REG REFUSED when a new radio is programmed and attempting to affiliate while the system is restricted and no auth key is present but ID is turned on. APX6000, APX8000 and APX7000 firmware 15.13 thru 16.23 Now on XTS and XTL models i believe the radio j...

chartofmaryland

Well if that is what you were after, We scheduled a service window and went from limited to restricted with the auth server which then only allowed auth’ed radios to continue operating The same process of using a dummy key to overwrite current keys was used to confirm radios on and off the system wh...

chartofmaryland

Well there are 2 options You can backdate the firmware to version 9 or 10 where after you turn power on and off to the radio about a dozen times and the authentication key will be dropped automatically, it must have been a customer feature request. Or your can overwrite with a useless key for the pu...

Afternoon Larry, The DIU provides a guard tone (think single tone lockup) to the Astro-Tac to advise the comparator that no analog audio is present This is the same for all of the hardware which when configured for mixed mode will also be sending the guard tone via the analog wireline when using ast...

Morning Mraudio, First thing I can recommend as my opinion only is to enable AUTO for the transmit wireline level. Motorola Eng. during the Quantar days did a fine job in creating this setting. If the few things I will never fully understand about the Quantar, the AUTO transmit line level control wi...

Afternoon All, Burner was reading the Radio Release Notes file for 16.20 which calls out a fix for radios used on IV&D trunked systems where when the radio was flashed with 14.00 thru 15.12 Host/DSP, the radio may exhibit a condition where voice calls could be missed due to an issue with data tr...

chartofmaryland

If your asking should a firmware upgrade be done to a radio with 14.52 or higher host/dsp, will it hold voice keys?

Yes was the result of the last time we added Bluetooth to a radio.

Voice keys stayed intact

Afternoon Bearing, When voltage drops are causing issues in a circuit, you can typically use a capacitor to stabilize the voltage. Not sure what the chief complaint is you are experiencing but the siren does not appear to want to draw a alot of current so a 4700uf cap across the 12vdc leads should s...

Evening W4NMH, I have done so with a dual RJ45 to DB25 like Motorola would send with the MC3000 and straight through cables. Didn't need the factory cable.

Evening all, So a follow up with Genesis leaves me in the same place. A mobile radio is the required interface for the audio operation of the Genesis server. The only non-mobile option was with a trident panel that may no longer be available as Motorola bought up Trident and only worked on connect p...

chartofmaryland

Evening RFGuy, Your other option is with the SLR8000 which offers a local control of the station from the front of the unit. Interface is a mic port but everything says you can route analog audio and PTT to the unit. Not sure if there is a way for COR to come from the front but may be possible from ...

Afternoon yagermeister, Sounds like you have a modified JT1000 that has a hex edited code plug to allow non-FCC FPP and possibly out of range frequency editing.

There is a local operation and wireline operation. Buttons on the front of the station are for local RSS buttons are wireline The audio you hear out of the station is considered flat without any deemphasis. If you were to hear the same on a portable radio it will sound different due to the portable ...

We use the IPLC with DIU's and our CCGW from our 7500 console. The IPLC does not require a site controller to have a conversation with a GCM8000. Downside is the IPLC does not have a vocoder inside. It is no different than a Cisco router with proper cards to interface to the outside world Also have ...

chartofmaryland

It is possible with MMDVM?

YouTube video out with an MTR2000 but a quantar can do the same

Key piece is the modem is connected to a C-bridge or similar server to complete the connections

I do not have information saying this will run standalone

CoM

chartofmaryland

Yes Sir, Has worked quite well as long as nothing gets hung up and you need to power cycle the RGU This for the non ECat users means a $12,000 GGM8000 with high capacity CCGW card and IPLC firmware, a $15,000 motobridge RGU and at least $3,000 in software to configure and modify the units. Or 2 APX7...

chartofmaryland

Tragically your solution is with MotoBridge RGU's into a GGM8000 IPLC running ACIM (not many who know how to configure this) or a consolette I hate the consolette idea by the way . . . Could always run 2 with crossmute I guess if down to brass tacks Motobridge would be to patch 2 ports with one runn...

Its more plausible the O5 control head is causing this condition than the speaker. Can you provide the frequency for the CM300 Next course I would take is to separate the radios to see how far apart they need to be to clear up the condition and both be rx'ing. There are known frequency spurs from th...

Another find, If you want to use Permanent Monitor to help find RFI with a XPR, need to program both Transmit and Receive frequencies for the personality I left the channels of choice as Rx Only and monitor would not open squelch and provide audio.

Confirmed, Need to enable Keypad Tones from the radio menu* Not in the CPS So if you take the default codeplug and remove all of the user editable settings for the first programming the radio will not have ANY button tones Re-checked the box so the user can enable keypad tones and it shows in the me...

As an update,

Still no luck with scan alert tone for on/off button pushes

My cruddy old XPR6100 does just fine but the 7550e is not wanting to play along

Going back to the customer location next week as they are not taking to the no-tone

If I find it, will advise

Getting deep into programming these now and for the sake of sanity cannot find a way to have scan on or off create a tone when the button is hit

If you are using DB25 to RJ45 adapters for the juniper cables, you need to tie pins 4 and 20 together to so the same thing

chartofmaryland

Afternoon Spiderman, You will have to tie RTS or CTS to ground or themselves depending on how the juniper unit handles the level shifts. I typically tie the Quantar side but both sides may need it Best way to try this is with a 8p8c telco banjo and a gator clip jumper. If the RTS is not activated th...
