1.1.4 C.SQ
1.1.4 C.SQ
The C.SQ trimpot is used to set the carrier squelch sensitivity. Carrier squelch is useful at
higher signal levels than noise squelch and can be used from 1-200µV input
It is provided mainly for use in fixed link applications where a high minimum signal to noise
ratio is required or where very fast squelch operation is required for data transmission. The
carrier squelch will open and close in less than 2 mSec.
In most base station applications the carrier squelch is disabled by turning the adjustment
counter clockwise until the screw clicks.
The carrier squelch may be set to a predetermined level with the Techelp/ Service Monitor
2000 Software or by using the following procedure.
1. First turn the adjustment fully counter-clockwise. Then set the noise squelch
as above.
2. Connect a source of an on channel signal with the desired threshold level to the
receiver's RF input.
3. Turn the screw clockwise until the SQ LED goes OFF. Then turn the
screw back until the LED just comes ON.

1.1.5 LINE

The LINE trimpot is used to set the line and direct audio output level. It is normally set to
give 0dBm (775mV) to line with a standard input signal equal to 60% of maximum deviation
at 1 KHz. The level can be measured between test socket pins 6 and 1 and set as desired.

1.1.6 PWR LED

The PWR LED shows that the dc supply is connected to the receiver.

1.1.7 SQ LED

The SQ LED comes on when the audio to the line and direct outputs is un-squelched. The
LED and squelch function are controlled by noise, carrier and tone squelch circuits.

1.1.8 ALARM LED

The ALARM LED can indicate the detection of several different fault conditions by the self-
test circuits. The alarm indicator shows the highest priority fault present. In order of
priority the alarms are.
