XTL5000 High Power O3 Control Head

Post by jts203 »

Does anyone know if you can configure a high power XTL5000 for the O3 handheld control mic/head. The reason I ask is because I notice the radio I have does not have the rear accessory connector on the radio as does the low poer unit and don't know how the speaker/ignition sense would hook up. Radio is currently configured remote with an O5 head.

Thank you

J600-4 RS232_RTS= UARTA_RTS= DCE_CTS
J600-5 BUS(+) (SB9600)
J600-6 RX_AUDIO
J600-7 AUX_RX
J600-8 AUX_TX
J600-9 RX_AUDIO
J600-10 GND
J600-11 GND
J600-12 DAC_OUT

So to make my own cable for the DB25, I need pins 16 (IGN), 24(SPKR-), 25(SPKR+).

Do I need to do anything with pin 13(EMERG)? I.E. do I need to ground it as on the 26 pin accessory connector for a dash mount?

Thanks,

DB

Ign and Speaker outputs are all I ever used. Should be good to go.
