FLEXCOMM II C-5000 (P-25 Capable) Operator’s Manual 3. Introduction The Cobham C-5000 Communication Management Controller (CMC) is a microprocessor-based control head device that controls one or two Cobham transceivers. The C-5000 supports the full line of Cobham FLITECOMM, FLEXCOMM I, and FLEXCOMM II transceivers. This manual is intended to quickly instruct the user on the basic operations of the C-5000 and also outline the advanced operations that set the C5000 apart from any other communication device.
FLEXCOMM II C-5000 (P-25 Capable) Operator’s Manual 3. FLITECOMM This product line is no longer manufactured, but remains in wide use. It consisted of the RT-7200, RT- 9600, and RT-9600F transceivers. They were available with a two-channel, crystal-controlled, Guard Receiver that could be user-specified for any Guard frequency between 138.000 and 173.9950 MHz (RT-7200) or between 150.000 and 173.9975 MHz (RT-9600/9600F). They were equipped with CTCSS tones on both the Main and Guard Receivers. C.

FLEXCOMM II C-5000 (P-25 Capable) Operator’s Manual Appendix B – Mode 2 Operation Overview The C-5000 has the capability to control the RT-5000 in such a way that the user can monitor both the main and the Guard (ITM) channel at the same time. This mode of operation is more difficult to use than MODE 1. The Home Page The only visible difference in the HOME PAGE from Mode 1 operation is in the Main/Guard status fields.
FLEXCOMM II C-5000 (P-25 Capable) Operator’s Manual Setting the Active Transceiver You can toggle the active transceiver for a radio between Main and Guard by pressing the soft keys. The UPPER SOFT KEY toggles the active transceiver for radio 1. The LOWER SOFT KEY toggles the active transceiver for radio 2. The following sequence of illustrations demonstrates this process for radio 1. The Main transceiver is currently active. 1 1 2 2 1 2 3 . .
FLEXCOMM II C-5000 (P-25 Capable) Operator’s Manual Appendix C – Single Microphone Operation Overview Starting with software modification 11 (SWID 11), the C-5000 has the ability to control both radios with a single microphone/headset. This feature, hereafter called single-mic mode, is useful for installations where audio panel space is limited, or it is otherwise impractical to dedicate two ports to the C-5000.
FLEXCOMM II C-5000 (P-25 Capable) Operator’s Manual Setting the Active RT You can change the active RT by pressing the soft keys. If radio 1 does not already contain the active RT, pressing the UPPER SOFT key will make radio 1’s active transceiver the active RT. If radio 1 already contains the active RT, pressing the UPPER SOFT key toggles the active RT between radio 1’s Main and Guard. The LOWER SOFT key performs the same operations for radio 2.
FLEXCOMM II C-5000 (P-25 Capable) Operator’s Manual Muting Inactive Receivers The C-5000 can be configured such that the DIM key invokes the MUTE function rather than the DIM function. When MUTE is active, the audio from all non-active transceivers will be muted. Muted transceivers are indicated by an ‘M’ character in their status fields. See depiction below. . 1 5 M M . . .

FLEXCOMM II C-5000 (P-25 Capable) Operator’s Manual Appendix D – Equivalent Part Numbers Because RT-5000’s and C-5000’s are maintained as separate products, there can be circumstances when a new flavor (part number) of RT-5000 is released, but the C-5000 is not yet aware of its existence. This problem manifests itself as rejected part numbers in the C-5000 configuration pages for RT-5000 radios.
