  • Page 12: Functional Description

    WM-1000 unit can either transmit or receive at any one time. The mobile radio that the WM-1000 is connected to can be Lo-band, VHF, UHF, 700MHz or 800MHz trunking or conventional. Proper care must be taken to prevent interfer- ence between the mobile’s higher power transmitter and the WB-1000 receiver.
  • Page 13 The WM-1000 is configured to be uniquely paired to one or more WB-1000 base in the vehicle. The WM- 1000 has four channels. These channels can be selected using the mode knob on the WM-1000 handheld and will select the RF channel and base paired to that channel. This provides private secure communications to your vehicle mounted mobile radio.

  • Page 14: Cradle/Docking Station Features

    Important: To configure (Pair) a WM-1000 to any WB-1000, insert the desired WM-1000 into the WB- 1000 and press the “PAIR” button on the WB-1000 to program the WM-1000 for this Base unit. 3.2 Multi-Vehicle Operation When the WB-1000 is first activated, it listens on the channel for beacons from other WB-1000 units that maybe be in the area.

    800mS) of activity without reciprocal activity on the opposing side of the call. In other words, if a WB-1000 senses activity from WM-1000 units, but no other WB-1000 has keyed a mobile radio on the same channel within 800mS (determined by mobile COR), the non-priority unit will revert to the priority state and begin handling the call.

    250mS to ensure that the radio isn’t merely handshaking or retrying. After successful acquisition of a voice channel on the trunking system, the WM-1000 user will hear a ‘clear to talk’ beep from their handheld and know it is OK to begin talking.

  • Page 17: Installation

    4.0 Installation Before installing the WB-1000, ensure that the mobile radio is properly aligned per the manufacturer’s tuning Instructions. Additionally, ensure that the WB-1000 jumper switches are properly configured for use with the particular mobile radio that it will be connected to. Follow the application note for your specific model of mobile radio to complete the interface to the WB-1000.

  • Page 18: Radio Connection

    4.2 Radio Connection Make the connections between the mobile radio and the WB-1000 cable as follows: Pin 1: Ground. Connect to the radio’s chassis or ground plane. Pin 2: Mobile transmit audio. Connect to the mobile transmit audio path or tone input. If connected to the mobile mic input, ensure that the WB-1000 is programmed for flat (common data).

Connect to a logic point in the radio that indicates proper tone and car rier have been detected or the audio unmute line. If this line goes more positive during an unmute condition, program the mobile COR line as active high (in the CPS).
  • Page 20 Pin 9: On-Air detect. Trunking: Connect to a point in the radio that indicates the mobile transmitter is actually on the air. This is not the same as mic PTT. If pin 9 goes positive during transmit, program the on-air detect line for active high (common data).

    4.3 Interface Cables and Antennas Interface Cables Pyramid Communications offers pre-made cables for the most popular mobile radios. If not ordered for a specific mobile radio, the WB-1000 comes with a ‘blunt cut’ cable, which will allow interfacing to virtually any mobile radio.

    Adjust the PTB audio by changing the PTB Audio Gain setting in the CPS. Generate traffic on the mobile radio receiver and adjust the BTP Coarse Audio Gain until the audio heard on the WM-1000 handheld is clear and loud. Use the PTB Fine Audio Gain to adjust the audio so it is clear to the WM-1000 handheld radio.
