Description

Earth/ground connection

For connection to the system’s earth/ground (Internally connected to PWR negative (-) pole.)

Voltage connection

For connection of 12VDC

Battery connection

For connection of a backup-battery, 12VDC. Note! No battery charging. See 9.3.

Coaxial connection

For connection of the antenna cable

Rbus connection

For connection of the Programming interface

ProgInt

PWR LED (Green)

Is lit when the PDR has power supply

RX LED (Yellow)

When lit, the PDR receives data from another radio unit in the system

TX LED (Red)

When lit, the PDR transmits data via radio

RS232 Tx LED (Red)

When lit, the PDR transmits serial data to connected device

RS232 Rx LED (Green)

When lit, the PDR receives serial data from connected device

RS-232 connection

For connection of the serial cable. 9-pole D-sub plug

Configuration Mode (Yellow)

Lit when the PDR221 is in configuration mode

M System Detect (Yellow)

Lit (flashed) if the radio detects a PDR transmission from another system. I.e. not valid system
id.

Carrier Detect (Yellow)

Lit (flashed) when a carrier is detected. Can be used to detect interfering signals. (If the Rx
LED is not lit simultaneously).

Note!

The PDR 221 does not charge batteries via the battery connection jack. See chapter 9.3.
