ID-O-Matic III

Adding Voice ID
The ID-O-Matic III has the ability to use an external voice record/playback board for voice ID of
the repeater. Once installed and set up for voice ID, the repeater will still use the Morse ID if the
repeater is in use (COR input active) when the ID starts. If COR is inactive, you will hear the
voice ID.
Install the voice ID board
There are five wires that connect the voice ID board to the ID-O-Matic III. Two are used for
power and ground, two are used to control voice playback and one carries the audio signal. Wire
the voice ID board as shown below:
There are two speaker pads on the voice recorder board; you can use either one of them. The ID-
O-Matic III board has solder pads and holes for the five wires needed for the voice recorder
board. The voice recorder board itself may have connectors installed. The connectors may be
removed if you wish and wires soldered directly to the board, or you can wire up connectors to
plug onto the board.
Set up the ID messages
It is important to properly set up the ID messages to use the voice ID. Each message for which
you want to use a voice ID must include a “backup” Morse ID message, to be played if the COR
input is active when the ID begins.
If you do not do this, your repeater may not ID properly
when it is in use
