GENERAL INFORMATION Midian’s SVR-1 is a simplex repeater maker that can be installed into a portable radio. The SVR-1 detects COR or VOX from an incoming transmission and records the incoming audio (up to 3 minutes). When the COR or VOX is no longer detected the SVR-1 keys the radio and retransmits the recorded audio.

P RODUCT PROGRAMMING The SVR series are programmed using Midian’s KL-4F and the MPS software Go to our website midians.com and under downloads> software download the latest MPS software version. If using the supplied CD-ROM insert it into the PC’s CD-ROM drive. In the browser that will pop-up, install the MPS programming software.

Power Up In Store/Retransmit Mode: If selected the unit will power up in repeat mode. This box must be selected if doing repeat enable on a per-channel basis. Key-Up Delay: This sets the amount of time the unit waits after keying the base station radio before it starts to retransmit the recorded audio.

SVR uses programmable gain amplifiers to accomplish this. Determining the gain settings for these amplifiers is an involved process, so Midian simplified this process by developing an algorithm that requires the technician to make only four voltage measurements. From these four measurements, all of the many internal settings are determined.

Locate the column that corresponds to the modulation and units of measurement for each of the audio hookup points. Adjust the slider bar such that the value appearing in the appropriate column matches what was measured as closely as possible. Midian recommends the following values based on 60% modulation:...
Be certain to follow standard anti-static procedures when handling any of Midian’s products. Due to the design of the options connector in the radio it is necessary to install two wires from the SVR-1-KW2 to the Kenwood radio. PTT: In order to be able to automatically key the radio it is necessary to install a wire from the point shown in the picture below to a point in the radio as discussed in the installation instructions for the desired model radio.

Be certain to follow standard anti-static procedures when handling any of Midian’s products. TK-2170/3170: This radio requires radio firmware version 1.22.00 (checksum 08C3) or higher. 1. Remove R-170 to open the radio’s TX path and R-167 to open the radio’s RX path.
RADIO PROGRAMMING TK-2170/3170: This radio requires KPG-101D v 2.20 or higher for programming. 1. Under the “Model” menu select “Product Information” and set “Optional Board” to “Voice Scrambler”. 2. Under “Edit” “Extended Function” disable the “Echo PTT”. 3. Under the “Edit” menu select “Key Assignment” and set “Side 1” or “Side 2” under the “Top/Side” tab as “Scrambler”.
However, some features may not be available in the radio when an option board is used. If a feature is not available, please contact Midian to see if the feature can be added.
