PRODUCT PROGRAMMING
Midian’s BTD-2 is programmed using the KL-4F programming interface and the MPS software. Please reference
the KL-4F manual for setup instructions of the software and hardware. From the product selection screen on the
MPS software, select the appropriate product name from the list and click OK.
Set the parameters of the product to fit the application. If any clarifications on a feature are required, move the
mouse cursor over the feature name until the question mark appears and right click, a definition of the feature will
be shown.
After entering the parameters, save the file by going to File - Save As. Enter the file name in the File Name block
and click Save. Saving the file will allow for quick and easy reprogramming of units.
Plug the unit into the P5 connector on the KL-4F using the double-ended wiring harness included in the KL-4.
Press and hold the PTT button on the KL-4F, then press and hold the Power button and then click “Program Unit”
in the menu bar to send the file to the unit. When programming is completed the buttons can be released.
Note: The BTD-2 is a non-readable unit.
Receive Tone Frequency (Hz):
In this register program the desired burst tone frequency in Hz from 300 to 3000.
Tone Detect Time:
This time is programmable for 0.00 to 0.99 seconds. This is the length of time that the burst
tone must be present prior to the BTD-2 decoding the tone. Midian recommends setting this to at least 0.30 to
avoid falsing.
Repeater Hang Time:
This time is programmable for 0.0 to 9.9 seconds. If set to 0.0 the Hang Time is disabled.
This sets the amount of time that the BTD-2 must see a loss of COR prior to resetting the Monitor/Squelch Output
and the PTT Hang Time Output. The purpose is to keep the repeater active, so that it does not go inactive during
a conversation.
Horn Output Time:
This time is programmable for 0-9 seconds. This sets the amount of time the Horn Output will
go low.
