TB8100 Service Kit User’s Manual
Configuring Miscellaneous Items 93
In the Power configuration area (Configure > Base Station > Miscellaneous),
the Aux power control box specifies what controls the auxiliary output. Select
one of the following options.
CTCSS characteristics
The CTCSS characteristics area (Configure > Base Station > Miscellaneous)
lets you globally configure CTCSS subaudible signalling to emulate the T800
or to follow the TIA/EIA603 standard.
Reverting to Run mode
You can configure the base station to automatically revert to Run mode. This
is recommended if Service Kits will remotely connect to the base station over
unreliable communication lines.
Option Description
Task Manager The auxiliary output is only turned on by Task Manager action.
You need to define suitable tasks for your system and
application so that the auxiliary power output is turned on
when it is needed. To help you with this, two Task Manager
tasks have been created and disabled.
To have the auxiliary power on all the time, simply enable the
task 'IF Base Station in Run mode THEN Enable Auxiliary
Supply.'
If you only want the auxiliary power on in special
circumstances, enable the task 'IF Base Station in Run mode
THEN Disable Auxiliary Supply' and create additional tasks that
define when the auxiliary power is turned on and off.
Mains This is the setting in the default configuration file. Output is
provided only when the PMU uses AC mains power. This
option is suitable for trickle charging the batteries used for the
PMU’s DC power input. If the base station has a DC only PMU,
this setting never turns the auxiliary power on.
