Warranty CES Wireless Technologies, (CES), warrants this product to be free from defects in material and workmanship for two years from date of shipment. If a malfunction occurs, it will be repaired or replaced (at our option) without charge for materials or labor if returned to the factory. This warranty does not apply to parts damaged due to improper use- including accident, neglect, unreasonable use, and improper installation - or to unauthorized alterations or modifications of the equipment.
1.0 Introduction We are very pleased that you have selected the CES ARi-195e ANI and Status Display Console. If you have any questions or concerns, we will guarantee you complete satisfaction through direct assistance from our factory. For maximum benefit, please read this manual carefully before commencing programming or installation. This manual provides complete details on the configuration, programming and installation of the ARi-195e ANI and Status Display Console.
2.0 Product Overview The ARi-195e is an advanced desk top ANI/Status decoder and display console featuring intelligent messaging capabilities that works with your existing mobile radio system. The unit decodes DTMF, 5-tone and n-tone tone sequences. When used in conjunction with the CES ARi-2000 easi-DISPATCH™ software system, the ARi-195e can be operated in a multi-channel environment and can be programmed using the AR i-2000 software.
Status By appending additional digits to the preprogrammed identity sequence, the driver can send messages to the dispatcher, with each additional digit having a “canned” or pre determined understanding. For example, if using the ARi-100 module as the mobile signaling device, the driver can have three external switchs representing say, “on route”, “lunch” and “arrived”.
This dictates the tone period of each digit in the identity sequence. For tone sequential or user defined sequences this can be programmed from 20ms to 100ms. For DTMF an interdigit time and digit time of 20ms to 100ms can be programmed. Audio Delay Technology CES has developed voice audio delay technology as an optional item for the ARi-195e. This completely mutes all tone sequences received to prevent dispatcher annoyance.
♦ Balanced and unbalanced audio input ♦ Suppress timer to prevent duplicates within a programmable time period ♦ Programmed using internal keypad or serially using ARi-195S software PTT polarity programmable External alert relay provide for user application ♦ ♦ 2.6 Programming & Installation The ARi-195e is designed to interface to most mobile radio products. In addition to the small physical size, power consumption is also held at an absolute minimum within the realm of current technology.
3.0 OPERATION Operation of the ARi-195e ANI and Status Display Console is determined in many respects by programming. This is dictated by the required system configuration. Remember, compatibility must be maintained at all times with the mobile signaling system ! 3.1 Display Operation When power is first applied or if there are no sequences in the memory queue, the time is displayed. The display is also used to show incoming valid sequences from the mobile fleet and is also used during programming.
Display Format The received mobile identity sequences can be displayed in one of two programmable methods: When programmed for ‘FIFO’ (first in first out) the oldest sequence is displayed. When the “next call” button is pressed, the oldest sequence is removed and the next oldest is displayed. In this mode the next call button is used to see received sequences from the oldest to the newest. If no more calls are in the queue and the next call button is pressed, the time is displayed.
• Speaker on / off - is illuminated when the radio speaker in enabled Speaker Mute The speaker mute relay is used to mute the speaker when a sequence is being received. The relay will only activate if precode digits are programmed. Once a valid sequence of precode digits has been received the relay will turn on until the remainder of the sequence is received. The relay can also be controlled by the speaker on / off button.
4.0 Installation Installation and programming of this CES product must be completed by a qualified two-way radio technician or engineer. CES is not responsible for any operational problems caused by system design, outside interference, or improper installation. Observe normal static prevention practices. 4.1 Radio Application/Interface Notes Application Notes for selected radio models may be obtained by contacting your CES sales representative.

5.0 Programming Programming the unit is accomplished using • The internal keypad or • Serially using the ARi-2000 easi-DISPATCH software system Internal Keypad Programming To access the internal keypad, remove the front cover. Programming is accomplished by activating the keypad keys and listening for the program alert tone. A chirp will be generated with each press of a key.
Alert Alert tone sequences can be generated for three events: normal call, autocall and emergency tone sequence receptions. Each of these events has assigned unique alert tones. Call is a 1khz tone with a 240ms on and off period. Autocall is a 400hz tone with a 240ms on and off time. Emergency is an alternating 1khz and 400hz tones at 120ms on and 30ms off times.
Autocall The autocall sequence is a received tone sequence that has status digit(s) appended to the identity that match the ARi-195e programmed autocall status digit(s). See sequence. Programming parameters, autocall: Autocall, status digit 1: Sets the first status digit for the autocall sequence. If programmed to ‘not applicable’ the autocall feature is shut off. Autocall, status digit 2: Sets the second status digit for the autocall sequence.
• Last one or two digits are status The receive queue stores sequences and displays them according to the next call button operation. The programming item display, call queue size defines the number of received sequences that can be stored. If set to one then each call is displayed as it is received and the next call button causes the clock to display.
Emergency The emergency sequence is a received tone sequence that has status digit(s) that match the programmed emergency status digit(s). See sequence. Programming parameters, emergency: Emergency, status digit 1: Sets the first status digit for the emergency sequence. If programmed to ‘not applicable’ the feature is shut off. Emergency, status digit 2: Sets the second status digit for the emergency sequence.
Sequence Received sequences are processed as follows: 1) The first tone in the sequence must be about the length programmed insequence, first tone time. 2) The remainder of the tones in the sequence must be about the length programmed in the sequence, remainder tone time. 3) Intertone times must be about the time programmed in sequence, intertone time. This does not apply to N tone sequences. 4) The first digits must match the precode digits.

9.0 In Case Of Difficulty (1) Ensure that the power and ground connections are properly connected. (2) Ensure that the ‘audio input’ is connected and at a satisfactory level. (3) Verify balanced or unbalance audio connection (4) Verify correct programming of the ARi-195e, and check that the mobile is programmed with compatible information, e.g. if the ARi-195e is programmed for 40ms CCIR tones, make sure that the mobile module is as well.

11.0 Amendments November 17, 1998 Firmware V1.2 From firmware version 1.2 onward, the mute button can be enabled or disabled. When disabled, pressing the button has no function except to change the clock. See programmable parameter item number 60.
[FROM THIS POINT TO THE END OF THE RS232 PORT SECTION IS NOT IMPLEMENTED AT THIS TIME] If the arbitration type is ‘wait for poll’ the unit saves up received sequences until polled, then it sends one line. The format of data in this mode is quite different to support polling. Programming parameters, RS232: RS232 port, baud rate: Sets the baud rate of the RS232 port. The other serial parameters are fixed at no parity, 8 data bits and 1 stop bit.
i Where: is the received sequence exactly as received excluding precode digits The poll response, no data packet is: e ALERT_RELAY The computer connected to the ARI-190 can also control the alert relay, it is controlled with the following packet.
The programming item and value are range checked by the ARI-190 before being written.
