TW-60 PUBLIC SAFETY RADIO INTERFACE
1-3
• Channel 1 - 4 Radio Connectors: These four DB-9F connectors are used to
connect control and audio signals to the base station two-way radios on each
channel.
• Channel 1 - 4 Matrix Audio Connectors: These four RJ-45 connectors are
used to connect the 4-wire audio signals to the Matrix port.
• Channel 1 - 4 Setup Switches: These 3 dipswitches on each channel control
the audio level interface and transmitter keying protocol for each two-way radio.
Refer to Table 3.
TRANSMIT DELAY
For each of the four interface channels, a knob is provided on the front panel to
set the amount of time that audio will be delayed before it is transmitted. The
Transmit Delay is adjustable as follows:
Table 1: Transmit Delay Switch Positions
In many trunking radio systems, the delay from keying a transmitter to having a
voice channel ready for use may be variable. The Automatic Transmit Delay
setting is useful in this situation to provide the minimum delay necessary for a
complete voice transmission. When set to automatically delay the transmitted
voice, the TW-60 listens for the tones the two way radio is producing and delays
the transmission of the voice until the tones stop.
