3.1 GENERAL
This section contains information and instructions for the correct installation of the AMS-
6000 Audio Mode Selector.

EQUIPMENT PACKING LOG
Unpack the equipment and check for any damage that may have occurred during transit.
Save the original shipping container for returns due to damage or warranty claims. Check
that each item on the packing slip has been shipped in the container. Verify that the
equipment display and backlighting configuration are the same as those ordered.
3.3
WIRING INSTRUCTIONS
The AMS-6000 can be installed and operated in one of two modes. Which mode to use will
be determined by how many positions are available on the existing audio panel. If there are
enough positions for number of bands in the TDFM-600/6000 (either two or three) then it is
recommended to wire the unit in separate mode. If there are not enough audio panel
positions available then the AMS-6000 will have to be wired in combined mode. The ‘Y’
harness P/N 077415 supplied with the AMS-6000 will be needed in either mode while a 15
pin D connector will also be required for a combined mode installation. The following
sections describe the specific wiring for each mode of operation.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
The "Y" harness PN 047394 has been replaced by PN 077415. The new
harness does not support routing of the 28Vdc input supply for the transceiver through the
AMS-6000. 28Vdc power should be supplied directly to the transceiver via a 5A fused
connection. Contact Technisonic for installation instructions if using an older PN 047394
harness.
3.3.1 Combined Mode
In this mode, the TDFM-600/6000 and AMS-6000 will be connected to only one position on
the existing audio panel. The 15-pin connector (J2) on the AMS-6000 is used to route the
audio and PTT to the transceiver.
28Vdc Power to the Transceiver is supplied directly via a
separate 5A fused connection.
The 15-pin connector (J2) has the same pin out as our older
TFM series of transceivers, making it easy to retrofit the TDFM-600/6000 and AMS-6000
combination into an older installation. The ‘Y’ cable will be used to connect the AMS-6000
to the TDFM-600/6000 with the third connector unused. See Table 3-1, Figure 3-1 and
Figure 3-3.
