Fan Timer
The RC210 provides a convenient method of controlling a cooling fan, while eliminating unnecessary wear and tear. When any Port is
keyed, the fan is started and will remain on for a period determined by the Fan Timer. It will then automatically shut off.
*1004x
where "x" is the amount of time you want the fan to remain on after any transmitter unkeys in minutes. The range is 1 to 255
minutes. The controller responds with "FAN TIMER SET".
Port Inactivity Timer
When ports are connected to other ports, this timer is started. If there is no receiver activity on this port for the period determined by this
timer, it will run a macro of your choice (see Programming section of this manual).
*1005x
where "x" is the amount of time a connected port should remain connected to
this
port if there no is activity for x minutes. The
range is 1 to 255 minutes. The controller responds with "PORT x TIMER SET" (where x is the port number).
Note: Programming the
timer to zero disables it.
DTMF Mute Timer
If DTMF muting is enabled on a port, audio from its receiver is muted upon receipt of DTMF. Furthermore, if the DTMF Covertone is
enabled on this port, it will be used during the mute period as well. When the COS closes, the receiver is again unmuted and (if
enabled) the Covertone is stopped. But what happens if a signal remains on the receiver? Obviously, the receiver wouldn't unmute until
after that signal went away.
To prevent this from becoming a problem. the DTMF Mute Timer will unmute the receiver and stop the Covertone after a DTMF digit is
first received and after certain amount of time. As long as DTMF digits are received, this timer is reset and the muting and Covertone
will continue until the user unkeys.
*1006x
where "x" is the amount of time in 100 milliseconds steps that the DTMF mute timer should generate DTMF cover tone and the
receiver should remain muted between DTMF digits. The range is 0 to 9999 milliseconds (ms). For example, 1 = 100 ms, 7 = 700 ms,
50 = 5 seconds Regardless of this setting, the receiver will unmute and covertone will be stopped immediately upon COS closure or the
receipt of DTMF "#".
CTCSS Encode Dropout Timer
If you have connected the CTCSS encode control line to an external encoder, you can program this parameter to select how long
encoded CTCSS will continue to be transmitted after the receiver COS closure or Courtesy Tone completion.
*1007x
where "x" is the amount of time in 1/10 seconds CTCSS should continue to be sent after COS closure or Courtesy Tone
completion. The range is 0 to 25.5 seconds.
Note: programming a 0 disables the timer and the CTCSS encode line will "turn off" immediately upon COS closure. If programmed to 254,
CTCSS encode will never occur. If programmed to 255, CTCSS encode will remain on at all times.
Note: See the command *1021 for selecting the CTCSS Encode polarity
Kerchunk Timeout Timer
When the Kerchunk Filter is enabled, it is required that users key up for a period of at least the setting of the Kerchunk Timer before the
RC210 will recognize it as a valid signal. Once that is done, Kerchunk filtering is disabled for a period determined by the Kerchunk
Timeout Timer period. That is to say that there will be no delay when users key up as long as the Kerchunk Timeout Timer has not
timed out. Once it does time out, then Kerchunk Filtering is once again enforced
*1008x
Program Kerchunk Timeout Timer where x = 0 to 255 seconds
Kerchunk Filter Timer
This timer determines how long a signal must appear on a receiver before it will be recognized as valid, if Kerchunk filtering is enabled.
The range is 1 to 6000, with 1000 representing approximately 1 second.
