Remote Operation

For remote operation signals are connected from the control equipment, through a suitable
communication link, to the transmitter's rear panel Facilities connector. Essential connections are an
audio input and a keying input. For the keying input, the Remote PTT connection can be used, or
phantom keying can be superimposed on the audio lines (see 'Selecting the Applicable Keying Method'
in chapter 3). Other remote signals can be connected to suit the particular application. The remote
signals are fully described in section 1 on page 17.
In the basic configuration, the rear panel MARC and Computer Port connectors are not used. The front
panel Reference connector is used to check the transmitter's internal reference frequency during
scheduled maintenance. The front panel Microphone/Diagnostics connector has two purposes: a
microphone/headset is connected for local operation, or, a PC is connected for maintenance purposes.
Maintenance using a PC connected to the Headset/Diagnostics connector is outside the scope of this
user guide. Full information is contained in the T6T maintenance handbook.
