Connect To Non-Aor Receivers - AOR ard300 User Manual

9. Connect to non-AOR receivers

Compatibility with receivers of other brands
ARD300 supports any receiver featuring a 10.7MHz or 45.05MHz I.F output, under
following conditions:
-I.F carrier-to-noise floor ratio must be sufficient for good quality decoding. Ideal value
approximately 100dBc/sec.
-Receiver step size should be set at 6.25kHz to avoid frequency mismatch.
-Tuned frequency should not be more distant than 1kHz from received signal, for error
free decoding.
Not all 3rd party receivers have been tested. Some receivers might be incompatible for
unknown reasons.
The quality of the digital voice decoding does depend on the receiver's sensitivity.
AOR support is limited to use with AOR receivers.
The supplied IF, DC and audio cables are designed to be used with AOR receivers.
If your non-AOR receiver is equipped with sockets of different types, the supplied AOR
cables will be incompatible. You will need to prepare your own cables.
Make sure that your receiver is set properly in order to output either a
•
10.7MHz or 45.05MHz IF signal.
Connect ARD300 to your power supply by using the supplied "open-end" DC
•
cable.
Connect one end of the supplied IF cable to the IF OUT socket of the receiver,
•
and the other end to the IF IN socket of ARD300.
If you would like the ARD300 internal speaker to output both the analog signal
•
audio and the decoded digital audio, connect the supplied audio cable to the
receiver's EXT SP socket and the SP IN socket of ARD300.
Proceed to chapter 10 "Receiver menu setup of ARD300".
