Chapter 3 - Repeater Control
The CAT-250 has eight control zones. These control zones can be manually controlled by DTMF
commands on the repeater input or by user and event macros.
Interrogation of Repeater Control Status
Key-up and send the control operator code [100] followed by the zone number and a zero. Un-key and
the voice will read back the channels that are turned on in that zone. Example: Read Zone 2 channel
status. If all the channels are turned off, the voice will say: "CLEAR."
Un-key and the voice will say: "ONE FOUR EIGHT"
Changing Repeater Control Status
To change the status of a channel, key-up and send the control operator code [100] followed by the
zone number, channel number and a [1] to turn the channel ON or a [0] to turn the channel OFF. Un-
key and the voice will read back the zone, channel number and control activity. The voice will say:
"ONE ONE ON." or "THREE FIVE OFF."
Example: With a control operator prefix of 100, turn Zone 2 Channel 1 ON.
Un-key and the voice will say: "TWO ONE ON."
Control of the CAT-250 is also available through the Port #2 receiver. The procedure is the same as
above except the default control operator code for Port #2 is [200].
