HHT Connection to an MDS P-60
On MDS
P-60 models, an HHT can be plugged directly into the Inter-
face/Utility Board (
except for MDS x710 models, which require a diagnostics
connection directly at the modular jack on the transceiver
). Follow these steps
to connect the terminal:
1. Plug the HHT cord into the matching jack on the Interface/Utility
Board. The HHT cord is usually fitted with a plug-in adapter to
allow use with either an RJ-11 modular jack or a DB-25 connector.
• On Analog Interface/Utility Boards (03-2110Axx), use J3 (the modular
jack).
• On Digital Interface/Utility Boards (03-2472Axx), use J3
or
J8 (the
DB-25 connector). After plugging in the HHT, set SW2 to the
IN
posi-
tion.
2. The HHT starts a self-check routine. When the test is finished, the HHT is
ready to accept commands. Refer to the transceiver manual for radio-spe-
cific commands.
On digital models, be sure to return SW2 to the
OUT
position when finished
testing.
HHT Connection to an MDS P-50
On MDS
P-50 models, an HHT must be plugged directly into the transceiver’s
INTERFACE
DB-25 connector. Follow these steps to connect the terminal:
NOTE:
For MDS x710 radios, GE MDS recommends that you plug the HHT
directly into the transceiver’s Diagnostics jack rather than the Inter-
face/Utility Board.
1. Unplug the transceiver’s interface cable (a ribbon cable leading
from the transceiver to J2 on the Interface/Utility Board).
2. Plug the HHT’s coiled cord into the transceiver’s
INTERFACE
connector.

Older HHTs do not have
an R5-11/DB-25 adapter.
For a replacement cable
(RJ-11 to DB-25 with adapter),
contact MDS.
