DCD 

Data/Carrier Detect output. 0-0.1V no carrier, 2.2K pull-up resistor 
to VIN when carrier is detected.  The 2200ohm pull-up resistor is 
driven by a MOSFET pulling it to ground when no carrier is present. 
With a 12V DC input, this output can go to 12V.

GND 

Ground, chassis and power gnd. 

 

 

 

 

Pin 12 is the Push To Talk (PTT) input.  It has a pull-up resistor of about 10K on it.  
When PTT is low, the transmitter in the M8T will turn on, and output the audio signal on 
pin 1.   

When PTT is high, the M8T is in the receive mode, and the receive audio will be output 
on pin 2.  

On Tech Series products utilizing M8 radio modules, the PTT can be set to active high 
via the 

ATPTT

 command.  

There are a few commands designed specifically for use in configuring the operation of 
the M8S in audio pass-through mode.   

 

AFDC 

Audio input DC offset – The DC bias level on the audio input in millivolt. 
Adjust this setting so the audio transmissions are on the center of the 

channel.  Set to 0 to have the M8S auto-detect the average. 

Range: -2000 
- 2000  

mV 

AFLVL 

Audio input level gain – internal gain of the audio input signal, in % .  
Adjust this setting for the audio input deviation level. 

Range: 0-
2000%  
mV
