Chapter 5 - Repeater Programming By DTMF Tone
This section describes how to program the CAT-800 using DTMF commands. The various types of
program commands are described in detail and examples are given in the following text. NOTE: DTMF
programming is limited to Port #1 only.
Initialization
To initialize the CAT-800, set dipswitch #7 to on and cycle DC power. During power-up, the voice will
say: "RESET SYSTEM OK." Set dipswitch #7 to off. Initialization consists of the following operations:
1 All memory locations are cleared.
2 The channels marked with a [*] are enabled.
3 The master unlock number is loaded with the default value [1234567].
4 The secondary unlock number is loaded with the default value [7654321].
5 The Port #1 control operator prefix code is loaded with [100].
6 The Port #2 control operator prefix code is loaded with [200].
7 The Port #3 control operator prefix code is loaded with [300].
8 All codes are loaded with default values.
9 All timers are loaded with default values.
10 The voice ID is loaded with “CAT -80 0 REPEATER”.
11 All messages are loaded with default messages.
12 Event and User macros are loaded with defaults.
Programming the Master Unlock Number
To program the Master UNLOCK number, set dipswitch #8 to the on position. The Port #1 transmitter
will activate and the voice will say: "ENTER CONTROL." Key-up and enter a seven-digit number through
the Port #1 receiver input. Un-key, if the number is accepted, the voice will say: "CONTROL OK." If the
number is rejected, the voice will say: "ENTER CONTROL." Key-up and re-enter the seven-digit number.
When finished set dipswitch #8 to the off position.
Unlocking the Controller [1234567]
To unlock the controller, key-up and enter the master-unlock number. The voice will say: "CAT-800
CONTROL."
Note: The CAT-800 can be unlocked and placed in the programming mode by entering the master-
unlock or the secondary unlock number. The master unlock number must be changed by using
dipswitch #8. The secondary unlock number can be changed remotely without having to go to the
repeater site. For security reasons use the secondary unlock number because it can easily be changed.
Use the master-unlock number only when conditions are thought to be secure.
Locking the Controller [*0]
Key-up and send [*0]. Un-key, the controller will lockup and the voice will say: "MANUAL EXIT." The
controller will lock automatically when the programming timer expires. The voice will say: "TIMER
EXIT." The default time is ten minutes. NOTE: The CAT-800 must be unlocked to perform the following
programming functions described in Chapter 5.
