8.1.4 FSK (for translators in the USA)
V2 Transmitters support automatic station identification using frequency shift keying (FSK). FSK
sends a user defined ID once every hour using Morse code and shifting the carrier frequency
up by 12.5kHz at 20 words per minute.
FSK ID
If enabled, the FSK ID will be sent once every hour. The required station ID must be entered in
FSK ID (up to 16 characters).
8.1.5 RF Mute on Silence
This selects the time after which the transmitter’s RF output will be muted if the transmitter is
transmitting silence. Options are: off, 1 min, 10 min, 30 min and 1h. The transmitter identifies
silence as a signal that produces a deviation of less than 30 kHz for the time period selected.
The Status box will indicate that the output of the transmitter is muted:
8.1.6 RF Mute (Manual)
This will manually mute the transmitter. The Status box will indicate that the output of the trans-
mitter is muted as shown in the picture above.
8.1.7 Power Scheduler
This feature allows the unit to be configured for transmitting different RF power levels at dif-
ferent times of the day. The unit will normally transmit the signal at the power specified in
RF
Settings
⇒
Power . If the power scheduler is disabled, the unit will keep transmitting at this
power level all of the time. If the Power Scheduler is enabled, the unit will switch to the se-
lected scheduled power (

Power ) when the time matches the Start Time
and will return to normal power when the time matches Finish Time .
This feature is intended to allow users to lower the power of their transmission at night time to
reduce power consumption and avoid increasing the range of the transmission due to the
change in atmospheric conditions. Please adhere to your licensing restrictions on power.
