SNV-12 Operations Manual

5-27

The TX Hangtime settings also apply to tone keying operation. When single-tone keying is
selected, the keying tone remains present for the set Hangtime after the repeat PTT input is no
longer active. When the EIA tone sequence is used, the low guard tone (also called the hold
tone) remains present for the set Hangtime following the de-activation of PTT.

Duplex and Simplex Modes

Duplex  Mode  should  be  used  at  all  times  unless  the  voting  system  has  transmitters  and
receivers operating on the same frequency or uses half-duplex transceivers.  In Duplex Mode,
the voter continues the voting process while the console PTT is active.  If automatic or manual
TX  steering  is  activated  while  the  console  is  keyed,  the  voter  will  not  switch  to  the  newly
selected TX sites until the console unkeys and keys again.  The voter never switches transmit
sites in the middle of a transmission.

When  set  to  Simplex,  voting  is  inhibited  and  voted  audio  is  muted  whenever  console  PTT  is
active.  Since simplex systems transmit and receive on the same frequency, this voting inhibit
during console transmissions ensures that receivers do not vote the console audio. The SNV-12
will also  hold  off  voting  for  an  adjustable  time  period  following  the  completion  of  a  console
transmission.    This  guarantees  the  voter  does  not  vote  the  squelch  tail  that  follows  that
transmission.    When  a  console  operator  is  letting  the  STARS  algorithm  select  a  site  for
transmission, and sends several replies to the selected site; the voting hold off ensures the voter
does not vote the squelch tail of one of these replies, which could cause the next console reply
to be sent to the wrong site.

The  voter  can  also  be  configured  so  that  console  transmissions  are  inhibited  during  Simplex
Mode  operation  whenever  any  site  is  voted.    This  ensures  that  the  console  operator  does  not
inadvertently cut off an important transmission from a remote site by transmitting at the same
time  on  the  same  frequency.    (Set  to

Field Priority

rather than the default

Console Priority

.

See Section 5.19.4 for more information and Section 3.12.2.4 for switch settings).

When in the Repeat Mode, the SNV-12 also behaves differently depending on whether the
SNV-12 is set to Duplex or to Simplex. When the unit is set to Duplex, voted audio is repeated
(retransmitted) to the sites determined by the voter‟s configuration settings;

this may include

the voted site

. When set to Simplex, Voted audio is

not retransmitted to the voted site

. This

exclusion can be overridden on a site-by-site basis by a dipswitch on each SVM module. See
Section 5.15 for more about the Repeat Mode and Section 3.12.6.4 for instructions to set the
Voted Site Simplex Repeat Enable dipswitch.
