4.2 Group 1 Switches: More Repeater Control
Group 1 contains switches that control the main repeater and access to the main repeater.
Group 1 Switches:
Switch Name Description
0
Repeater Time-out
Timer Enable
Allows the time out timer on the main repeater
to be enabled or disabled. Normally the time
out timer will be enabled. However, certain
applications may require the time-out timer be
disabled. Set this switch to 1 to enable the
repeater time-out timer.
1
Time Out Timer Long
Select
Allows the long (1) or short (0) timer to be
selected.
2
“Dual Squelch” Enable
Setting this switch to 1 enables dual squelch
mode. In “Dual-Squelch” mode, either the CAS
or the CTCSS signal will cause the repeater to
be accessed. This is sometimes called “OR-
Squelch” mode.
3
DTMF Muting Enable
Enables DTMF tone muting. When enabled (1),
the controller will mute the receiver audio to
prevent received DTMF command tones from
being broadcast over the repeater.
4
Drop Link to Mute
DTMF
When enabled (1), will cause the link
transmitter to drop during the DTMF muting
time, preventing linked repeaters from hearing
dead air.
5
Patch requires CTCSS
When enabled (1), autopatch calls can only be
made if the user is transmitting the valid CTCSS
tone.
6
DTMF Pad Test Enable
When set (1), enables the DTMF pad test. (See
Section 5.8 for a description of the DTMF pad
test.)
7
Link Port Control
Receiver Mode
If no control receiver is plugged in to the
controller, the control receivers DTMF decoder
is assigned to the link port. Setting this switch
will cause the controller to mute DTMF tones
received on the link port if DTMF muting (1.3)
is enabled, and to immediately execute
commands received on the link port when the
link port CAS signal drops.
