Overview
This section contains information and instructions on installing Zetron’s Digital Tone
Remotes into either new or existing radio systems. It covers both the physical installation
of the unit and the initial setting of audio levels. It does not cover the programming of the
remote as far as functions of its programmable buttons or its paging feature. Those
features are covered in
Required Equipment
The installation of the Digital Tone Remote requires very little equipment. Aside from the
hand tools necessary to deal with the site wiring, you need the following items:
• Phillips screwdrivers, both #1 and #2
• Flat-blade screwdriver, small “tweaker” size to attach wires at terminal strip and
adjust levels
• AC voltmeter (RMS), or a dB meter referenced to 600
(this is only necessary in
systems with only a single remote) to set the transmit audio levels out of the remote
(you can use an oscilloscope if you have to)
• A radio service monitor to check and/or set transmit deviation levels
Note
This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency
energy. If not installed and used in accordance with this manual, it
may cause interference to radio communications.
Caution!
Installation of this equipment should be accomplished by
personnel with experience in radio systems. Specialized
knowledge in telephone systems is also important to ensure a
smooth interface when connecting with the Telco network.
