[MUTE] JACK / [MUTE] SWITCH
Used to mute the receiver
output.
(3.5 mm, 1/8 in (d))
When the Mute Switch is slid to right, the receiver
enters to the Bit Error Rate (BER) Measurement mode
for the maintenance purpose.
When the [MUTE] is slid to left:
When this terminal is grounded, the receive circuit is turned OFF.
L
Use this function when you use the IC-R8600 with a transceiver.
L
The sink current is approximately 1 mA at 8 V input.
When the [MUTE] is slid to right:
Connect a BER counter. In the BER Measurement mode,
the PN9 bit stream is output from this terminal.
[METER]
Connects to an external meter.
Outputs the received signal
strength or squelch level.
(3.5 mm, 1/8 in (d))
•
Output voltage:
8 V (maximum)
•
Output impedance: 10 kΩ
L
You can select the output signal from received signal strength
and squelch levels.
