ANTENNA SWITCHING & PTT SEQUENCER TAB
The Antenna Switching & PTT Sequencer tab provides editor for “programming” the behavior of Station Master's
outputs. It consist several sub-tabs that are used to defined the complex dependencies between operating
frequency, peripheral control (antenna switch, bandpass filter, power amplifier etc.) and user interface. The
settings on ALL sub-tabs can be manipulated at once using the four (4) buttons at the bottom of this tab.
Get:
Retrieves the current settings from the Station Master memory and displays the values of those settings in
the sub-tabs.
Store:
Sends the settings of ALL sub tabs to the Station Master non-volatile memory.
NOTE:
The “Antenna Switching & PTT Sequencer” tab and sub-tabs are a visual editor. The configuration data
must be stored to the Station Master memory before they will become active.
Load From File:
Loads a settings file from the computer into the “Antenna Switching & PTT Sequencer” tab and
sub-tabs. .
NOTE:
Loading a file only fills the sub-tabs and DOES NOT automatically store those settings to the Station
Master. When you wish to configure Station Master from a file, you must load the file into Router and
then Store the settings to Station Master.
Save To File:
Saves the current settings displayed in “Antenna Switching & PTT Sequencer” to a file on the
computer.
NOTE:
If you want to save Station Master's current operating configuration, you must click “Get” to retrieve the
data into the “Antenna Switching & PTT Sequencer” tabs and then click “Save to File” to write that data
to the computer.
OUTPUTS
Station Master provides twenty (20) relay outputs. They are
physically located at two connectors on the rear panel, PORT
A and PORT B. The connections are described in Appendix A
- Connectors.
PORT A:
had a common terminal and ten (10) relay outputs.
The common can be configured for power or ground for either
the internal power supply or an external power supply up to 28
Volts DC by selecting the appropriate jumpers.

Attention:
CAT control of band decoding (transceiver frequency decoding) must be enabled before
Station Master will automatically switch antennas, switch amplifiers, or control other
frequency dependent accessories.
To enable CAT control, see the Menu button on page 50 of this manual.
