AE/LZB 119 1647 R1A STANDARD RADIO FEATURES INTRODUCTION Carrier Control Timer (CCT) The EDACS Monogram Portable Radio is a rugged, lightweight unit which is housed in a molded Lexan front The CCT is programmable on a per channel basis and assembly and an aluminum rear casting.

AE/LZB119 1647 R1A The typical system configuration consists of at least 2 Emergency (Optional) repeater stations (with a maximum number of 25) and the An "Emergency" message is initiated by the caller and associated mobiles and portables. One repeater always is a automatically transmitted by the radio on the control control channel dedicated to sending out continuous control channel.

AE/LZB119 1647 R1A KEYPAD LOCK CIRCUIT ANALYSIS The keypad can be locked at any time to prevent RECEIVER SECTION undesired key presses. To lock the keypad when it is in the unlocked state, press and release the LOCK (shifted The radio receiver section consists of a double key.
AE/LZB 119 1647 R1A 2nd Mixer and Detector PLL CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION The received IF signal of 45.3 MHz is supplied to the VCO and Buffer Amplifier 2nd mixer via U101 pin 16. Here it is mixed with the 2nd L.O. signal of 45.755 MHz and converted to the 2nd IF The VCO generates frequencies of 806-824 MHz in frequency of 455kHz.
AE/LZB119 1647 R1A Power Switching and Voltage Regulator PLL IC (U105) AND LOOP FILTER The frequency synthesizer consists of a single loop U109 and U110 provide a regulated +5Vdc to the RF phase locking circuit with a reference frequency of 12.5 Board.

AE/LZB 119 1647 R1A If the battery is to be charged on the radio, ensure that BATTERY CHARGING AND CARE the power switch on the radio is in the off position before charging. Failing to turn the power switch to off during the charge cycle will result in a less than full charge condition, which will noticeably reduce the operating time between charges!
