going  to  transmit.    The  TX  Request  Input  can  be  enabled  with  a  3.3V  to  5V  logic  signal
(when  in  Active  High  mode)  or  connecting  to  ground  (when  in  Active  Low  mode).    The
circuit is a 74LVC14 CMOS Schmidt trigger logic input with a 2.7k pullup to +3.3V.  The IC
is  5V  tolerant,  so  you  can  drive it  with  TTL  levels  as  well.    It  can  also be  driven  with  an
open  collector  transistor  or  open  drain  MOSFET.  Grounding  the  center  pin  of  this
connector  will  prevent  transmit  from  engaging  (when  in  Active  Low).    Refer  to  the
SmartSDR documentation for information about how the interlock system works and how
to  determine  what  is  preventing  transmit.

The SmartSDR for Windows Software User’s

Guide also includes details on how to interlock two radios from simultaneous transmit for
a Multi/2 operation.

EXTERNAL AMPLIFIER ALC INPUT

This RCA connector is provided to receive an ALC signal from an external amplifier. The
shell is ground, and the pin is a negative going DC voltage, zero to -4 Volts.

!

–

VOLTAGES BELOW -4VDC MAY DAMAGE THE ALC INPUT.

Δ –

Please note this input is provided as a safety measure for external amplifiers. It is

NOT meant to be used in regular operation as an active power control input or to

modify the “attack” of an external amplifier. Almost all modern HF amplifier

manufacturers discourage the use of ALC in normal operation. In fact, many amplifiers
do not have ALC implemented. The

SmartSDR Software User’s Guide

describes the

recommended method for setting the power level on an external amplifier on a per-
band basis.

7.10

REMOTE POWER ON INPUT

This  RCA  connector  is  provided  for  remote  power-on  functionality.    When  the  Remote
Power  ON  feature  is  enabled,  shorting  this  input  to  ground  will  activate  the  radio  -
opening  this  connector  will  disable  power  on  the  radio.    Refer  to  the  SmartSDR
documentation for information on how to configure this input. (Note: 3.3VDC Max Input.)

7.11

GPS ANTENNA INPUT (W/GPSDO OPTION)

If  the  radio  is  equipped  with  the  optional  GPSDO,  this  female  SMA  connector  is  for
connecting  the  included  GPS  antenna.    The  GPSDO  provides  DC  bias  for  the  antenna
preamp.  It can work with antennas that require either 3.3 Volt or 5 Volt DC bias.

7.12

10MHZ REFERENCE OUTPUT (W/GPSDO OPTION)

If the radio has the optional GPSDO, the 10 MHz reference output is a buffered 3.3V p-p
output of the 10 MHz oscillator in the GPSDO. The signal can be used to provide a
reference signal for external equipment. The connector is a female SMA.
