1.10 SOFTWARE UPDATES/REVISIONS

All inquiries concerning updated software, its 

installation and revisions should be directed to the 
Customer Service Department (see Section 1.6).

1.11 UNIVERSAL STATION OPERATION

1.11.1  THIRD PARTY INTERFACE (TPI)

Refer to Figure 1-2.

Programming Jack

J1 provides input connection from the computer 

and the "flash memory" in the TPI.  The programming 
information in an IBM

 compatible personal com-

puter programs the TPI directly from the serial port 
through interconnect cables connected to the COM1 
or COM2 port.

Reset

S1 provides a manual reset of the Third Party 

Interface (TPI) microprocessor.  A manual reset 
causes a complete power-up restart.

Display and LEDs

Each combination of DS1 display read-out and 

CR4/CR5 indication refers to an active alarm.  See 
Table 1-2 for alarms and definitions.  When CR1 is 
blinking, the TPI is operational.  CR2 is the high 
power indicator and CR3 is not assigned at this time.

Alarms

When the Repeater is in the test mode the safety 

measures are disabled.  Therefore, if the Universal 
Station is keyed for an extended period and the power 

amplifier temperature increases, thermal shutdown 
will not occur.  There are pop-up windows that will 
appear in the Test mode screens to alert the user that 
there is an alarm and action should be taken.  Refer to 
Figure 1-1 for an example of this type of alarm.

Figure 1-1   ALARM IN TEST MODE

External Speaker Jack

J104 provides local audio output to an external 

speaker.  The local volume control adjusts the volume 
level of this speaker.

Speaker/Microphone Jacks

J102 provides audio input from a microphone.  

J101 provides the receive audio to the microphone.

Local On/Off/Volume Control

R164 provides control of the receive audio output 

to J101 and J104.  Turning this control clockwise past 
the detent applies voltage to the local audio amplifier.  

A/D Level Test Point

J100 provides audio/data level output for test 

level checks. 

Ground

J103 is the ground connection for test equipment 

when monitoring test point J100.

1.11.2  INTERFACE ALARM CARD (IAC)

Voltage Test Output

J502 provides a test point to m15V sup-

ply on the IAC.  Refer to Figure 1-2.

NOTE: Safety measures are disabled

RF Thermal Sense Alarm Condition Exists
