Chapter 5 - Repeater Programming By DTMF Tone
This chapter describes how the CAT-1000B controller is programmed by the repeater
owner using a DTMF keypad. The various types of program commands are described in
detail and examples are given in the following text.
Initialization
To initialize the CAT-1000B, set dipswitch #7 to ON and cycle DC power. During power-
up, the voice will say: "RESET DATA LOAD COMPLETED." Set dipswitch #7 to OFF. To
initialize the CAT-1000B during a software update, set dipswitch #6 to ON and cycle DC
power. Initialization consists of the following operations:
Dipswitch #7 Initialization
1. All memory locations are cleared.
2. The control channels marked with a [*] are enabled.
3. The unlock number is loaded with the default value [1234567].
4. The computer password is loaded with [cat1000]
5. The control operator prefix code is loaded with the default value [100].
6. The control numbers are set to default values.
7. The timers are set to default values.
8. The voice message buffers are loaded with default messages.
9. ID #1 is loaded with "CAT1000 AUTOMATIC REPEATER CONTROL."
10. ID #2 is loaded with "CAT1000 REPEATER."
11. All active memory saves are filled with default values.
Dipswitch #6 Initialization
1. The control channels marked with an [*] are enabled.
2. The unlock number is loaded with the default value [1234567].
3. The computer password is loaded with [cat1000]
4. The control operator prefix code is loaded with the default value [100].
Programming the Unlock Control Number
To program the UNLOCK code, set dipswitch #8 to the ON position. The voice will say:
"ENTER CONTROL." Key-up and enter a seven-digit number. Un-key, if the number is
accepted, the voice will say: "DATA INPUTS OK." If the number is rejected, the voice
will say: "CONTROL ERROR" followed by "ENTER CONTROL." Key-up and enter the seven-
digit number. Set dipswitch #8 to the OFF position. NOTE: When the CAT-1000B is
powered up with dipswitch #7 set to ON, the unlock number defaults to: [1-2-3-4-5-6-7]
Unlocking the Controller By Radio
To unlock the controller, key-up and enter the seven-digit unlock number. The voice
will say: "CAT-1000B CONTROL."
Locking the Controller By Radio
Key-up and send [*0]. Un-key, the controller will lockup and the voice will say:
"MANUAL EXIT." The CAT-1000B will lock-up automatically when the programming timer
expires. The voice will say: "TIMER EXIT." The programming time limit can be set
with the [*615*] programming command.
Programming Controller By Telephone
To program the CAT-1000B, call the repeater by telephone. When the CAT-1000B answers,
a beep will be heard. Enter the seven digit unlock number followed by a (#) pound.
The voice will say: "CONTROL READY." Programming by phone is identical to programming
by radio except you must end each entry with a [#] pound. To terminate programming by
phone send [*0#].
NOTE: The CAT-1000B must be unlocked
to perform the following procedures:
