Hi,does anyone remember the mcc 5500 Supervisor password to log onto a POSITION,to modify it?I thought it was like.....astro something.It would be a default password.

Thanks!

efc

Thanks again for all input!

efc

Well,thanks for all input,here is what I did to enable this:
J11. on back of the receiver,RJ 45:

PIN 5 TO GROUND,I SECURED TO SCREW ON ASTRO TAC RECEIVER

PIN 6 THEN HAS A LOW WHEN THE RADIO RECEIVES.

Then you can key up whatever radio you like,in my case a CM 200D.Works well,no programming at all.

efc

Bill,Thanks much!I know exactly of what you speak.I looked a bit this weekend,saw all that in software.However,like others,I would not have thought to enable the 6809 trunk feature,seeing as how this is not a trunk radio.Thanks again,I will post my results for you and others.!

Thanks Bill.

efc

That is what I suspected,just did not find it yet,now I did download the latest Quanta astro software from MOL,because I have a windows 7 machine now.
Thanks Bill,lol,I had a feeling you would respond.Thsnks again.

Hello,

I have a conventional VHF receiver that I need a COR output, a low,to key up a UHF cm300 in a UHF wireless link for a voting system.I have the manual,I cannot seem to find this on the receiver.Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks!

efc

Thanks for the info!

Hello, What would be the easiest way to pass keying tones from a radio console ,through a UHF RF LINK,to a voter.Point is,I could use a CPI tone inter face to radio,but it will strip off keying tones I think.So I need to be able to key up a UHF radio,and pass the tones from the console,to be receive...

Great reply,thanks,I work with a guy who did the upgrading,I did not this time,and I think he copied old,and did not start from scratch.

Thanks!

Hello, This is background info: 1.4 channel MIP 5000 CONSOLE,operating in windows 7 ,32 bit I believe. 2. 3 local gateways,one new one which is for trbo interface. 3.Distance between the console position,which is only 1 which also acts as the Server with CSDM,AND DCPM installed on it,is about 60 fee...

Thanks

efc

Yea,there is an I T guy,who I may be able to talk to,and I was thinking,ATT,installed a unit that has CSU units in it,and it looks very familiar to the unit you told me about.I have been exposed to a lot of things through the years,but this is new to me.I understand,for the most part how this is sup...

efc

Yea,sorry I did not make myself clear.Yea ,I will probably tell the sales guy that we need to use the Zetron as the primary method,and come up with another backup plan.See,the guy that sold this was thinking,T1,with some sort of interface ,as Primary communication link.Then use the Zetron through th...

efc

Ok,since I am unfamiliar with this equipment,Kentrox,is the a 4 wire input,which then it digitized it for T1?
Because basically I need to go from Analog audio,from a radio console,to the other end which is the back of a JPS voter.

Thanks

efc

Great info guys,THANKS I knew I could get some good inpu.Need it now that it is MY BABY

efc

Key word,WAS

efc

Yes by the way,Microwave,WAS A SOLUTION.

efc

1.we are also,sorry,I AM ALSO INSTALLING the Zetron equipmentioned already mentioned,as a back up. 2. The T 1 is already In stalled ,and guess who is supposed to make it work . 3.when I went over with the sales person what was supposed to be installed,I guess there was confusion about the T 1.In oth...

Hello, Need to interface some Legacy equipment to a T1 line,which would go between 2 towns.So,radio analog,to a T1,then on the other end ,you would from T1 back to analog.This is going to be done to interface 2 customers together,so that customer A,would control not only their equipment,but radio eq...

efc

You know Bill........I do not know.

Thanks

efc

Found out that I needed the NNTN 8383 Mic for their environment.

efc

Hello just as an update,I figured out my problem.The receivers again are MTR 3000,I went into the channel info and set the receiver mute rule to "standard mute /unmute" I found out what was happening was that the MTR would receive a low level signal,pin 4 of the j7 AUX connector would go l...

efc

Thanks,I will check it out tomorrow,and let you know.

efc

Digital Mic gain was at 16 db,then 6,then 22 because they said that the volume was too low on the receiving end.

efc

AF suppresion on.Mic AGC off,Digital AGC,and analog AGC off.

efc

Supression on,distortion on.

efc

Hello,anyone had a problem with a PMMN 4050A microphone,on a XPR6550,and the audio in digital goes high low.The radio is good without Mic.Just wondering.
Thanks

efc

Thank you.

efc

Thanks,i am going to read that,and yes Bill and company,what you are saying is my concern.You cannot from what i see ,put a DMR radio in analog,test it and say all is good.That is because of BER.So........if my R8000 cannot properly do a tune and align on an MTR 3000 ,which operates in Trboland,how ...

efc

Well,I am concerned about the Radios ability to properly decode encode the proper Bit structure of the signal.I only say that because the R 8000,and i assume the aeroflex,have software to test this component of the radio,which i assume then that testing in analog would not be good enough.Which,I hav...

efc

Hello,anyone know of a clean way to intetface a secondary hand mic to the rear connector on a XTL 1500?The best way I know of is using a mic interface box,like th type that GAI tronics makes.Any other ideas?

Thanks.

efc

Hello,what I am trying to do is check the repeater,which is Ip site connect,with the auto tune/tune feature under the test section of the R8000,just like you would a portable/mobile.Which by the by,my monitor cannot do XPR 3500 yet,because General Dynamics has not released th option yet.I am primari...

efc

Hello,has anyone ever tested a MTR 3000 with a General Dynamics R8000 Monitor?The MTR is also in IP site connect.My monitor has DMR autotune,but it looks like it only tests mobiles and portables,plus XPR 8400s.Just curious.

Thanks

efc

Yes that what i am concerned about.

Thanks

efc

Hello,getting ready take CET exam,associates,have never taken,and I have the latest study guide.I have heard about a lot of failures,or I should say that I have heard of a high failure rate with this exam.Any input as far as study guides,or helpful info on how to prepare?I understand the material in...

efc

Yes 700 mhz has more Mhz,(big grins).Yes Bill,I agree with you,I am thinking that they mean mobile,not portable,and me thinks that the customer is in for rude awakening.

efc

Thanks Bill,thats great input,yea.....no kotolas here (also big grin).That is a really good way to look at ,adding as you go because you find problems,never thought of it that way.My understanding is that the building owners may be approached about BDA's.A fire chief told me that that may be a new c...

efc

Yes i did type this,and no i did not worry about proper grammar,thought this was a radio site not English 101.

efc

No,not really,there is a state system,that we do not take care of,and it works so so from hat i hear,but the state pd is primarily on highways,and i am concetned about the building penetration,primarilt those with alot of metal,concrete.An kotorola ho is installing he system withus has identified 39...

Hello,Just wondering,how well does 700 mhz,Astro 25,work in a urban /city area?I have no experience with this band and am wondering about this.Now i realize with enough sites in Astro,it could work well,but i a fairly flat large geographic atea witj a mixture of farm,city,it may prove interesting. T...

efc

Well, it looks like you can use DTMF to the backof the radio,which i guess is not mentioned in book,I will post when I find out how.

efc

Hello,anyone ever use the channel steering lines on the mic jack of the mobile?I realize that you can program the mobile pins 20-25 for channel steering,but just curios.Also,has anybody ever channel steered throug a JPS NXU 2?I found out that you can use the NXU serial line to do this,just not sure....

efc

Thanks for the input,and i will remember that.Just to clarify,of my 2 sites,site 1 upstairs has 6 repeaters,downstairs has 4 repeaters.Plus these folks are HEAVY users,so I am keeping an eye on GW3 because it is possible,since the system is not balanced,that site 2 gets so much traffic that it busie...

efc

Hello, Thank you for your input,the interference you were talking about I have thought of,have not checked yet.Went the yesterday afternoon,could not get but 2 failures in offending area.Yes ,the busies I got were not the portable loosing the Repeater,but not getting in,no orange light on top of rad...

efc

By the way,I understand how to do the BER test for Tx and Rx ,directly to the radio with monitor,but isn't there a way to test BER in a real life situation,whereas the medium,the distance between the portable and repeater is considered.

Thanks

efc

Hello,I have got a 6 repeater Mototrbo Linked Cap plus system which I have checked the transmitters,antennas,receivers,and the system appears to test good,450 Mhz,until the customer gets busy.In other words,they say that they get busy at nights,then they get no communication ,especially in one area,...

efc

Hi, I escapes me right now ,but,can you turn off the pre emphasis and de emphasis on CDM 1250 radios? I will have to double check in the software,I think you can,and therefore,maybe get rid of my issues.On the SNV 12 just yesterday,I added maximum line equalization not the UHF link site,still was fa...

efc

By the way Bill, the PTG10 stands for Pilot Tone Generator.Which obviously produces Pilot Tone for Voters.It is selectable from 1950,or 2175.I use 2175,and it comes stock setup as 1950.It also has a line adjust and Pilot adjust in the housing.

efc

Oh,got it,thanks.
