2060 Operating Modes There are two operating modes available with the 2060 telephone interconnect, one is automatic mode and the other is manual mode. Overviews of both modes follow. Automatic Mode Overview In automatic mode the 2060 can:- scan all channels programmed for scan looking for an incoming Selcall, Telcall or ALE call (if ALE is enabled) from an HF network station.
HF network a channel must be selected and the Selcall number of the station required must be entered, after which the 2060 will send the call and if successful an audible reply will be heard from the station being called. If this audible reply (revertive call) is not heard another channel should be selected and the call repeated.
A Selcall can be sent to any HF station that has an access level that allows it to receive Selcalls (access levels are set in the 2060 by the system supervisor and are described in the setup section within this manual).
'*' followed by the 2 digit destination ID press '#' followed by the 2 digit ALE self ID press '#' again to initiate the ALE call ALE address lists are stored in the 2050 transceiver that is connected to the 2060 telephone interconnect. 22 of 133...
To exit Secure Mode:- Press ‘**’ (2 stars). This will take the 2060 out of secure mode. For the Secure Call to work correctly the destination ID must have the correct “Secure” key code assigned to it. Please see “Program Secure Sections” of the manual.
Before going into hopping mode it is recommended that a call to an HF station is made first. Otherwise once the 2060 is in hopping mode it will not be able to contact another station unless that station is in hopping mode already.
"BUSY" signal from the telephone system and then hang up or will time out due to lack of activity. Which ever is the case whilst the 2060 is waiting to hang up, the system is not available for use and the last caller will be charged extra time on his call.
Selcall number to permit dialling to a preset phone number. Sending a Telcall - dialling a telephone number To make a telephone call, enter the self ID of the 2060 to be used via the numeric key pad. Refer to the relevant transceiver manual on sending Telcalls from the transceiver.
Manual Mode Overview In manual mode the 2060 interconnect will act as an HF base station and:- enable the operator to send Selcalls and ALE calls to stations on the HF network. enable the operator to send Telcalls to stations on the HF network.
Receiving a preset telephone number Selcall from an HF station On receipt of a Selcall directed to your 2060, it will be displayed on the front panel and an alarm will sound. Receiving a preset telephone number ALE call from an HF station On receipt of a preset ALE call directed to your 2060, it will be displayed on the front panel and an alarm will sound.
Receiving a Telcall from an HF station On receipt of a Telcall directed to your 2060, it will be displayed on the front panel and an alarm will sound. 29 of 133...
The operator can then Selcall the required HF station using the manual operator's control menu. Once contact is established, the telephone caller is connected to the HF station by placing the 2060 “On Line”. To do this press the key for 2 seconds.
Completing the call - "hanging up" The HF user can send a "Hang-up Request" (see the transceiver operation manual for details). When received by the 2060 an alarm will sound and a confirmation screen will be displayed. Use the Scroll keys to select “Yes” or press the key to allow the call to continue.

Contacting another station - using selective call Selcall, Telcall or ALE Calls The calling systems available for the Barrett 2060 telephone interconnect are listed below:- International A four and six digit selective call system, fully interoperable with the UN format published in September 2004 and fully backwards compatible with all previous Barrett 4 digit Selcall protocols.
ALE controller to determine the best channel to connect on when commanded by its operator to communicate with another station. The Barrett 2060 ALE setup is controlled by the transceiver that is connected to it. The transceiver’s ALE controller memory stores up to 10,000 sets of LQA information, 100 channel configurations, up to 20 self-address configurations and up to 100 other address configurations.
When is fitted Beacon Calls are not required as the ALE system uses automatic “Soundings” to update channel signal quality information. This allows the ALE to automatically select the best channel for establishing a link on. When the 2060 is doing a sounding a message will appear on the display.

Noise reduction This section allows the DSP noise reduction “depth” to be adjusted to suit the operator’s comfort requirements. Settings available are Weak, Medium and Strong. It should be noted that as the “depth” is increased the processed human voice gets a more metallic quality.
Phone line set up procedure The 2060 has two inbuilt digipots which allow the operator to calibrate the phone line levels during initial installation. At this point it is important to note that incorrect set up of the line level in and out will potentially cause the VOX and DTMF to incorrectly operate whilst also compromising the performance of the cadence detector.
This allows adjustment of the phone line level in. This can only be done with nominal audio levels being received whilst the 2060 is on line. It is thus recommended that the operator ring the same number the 2060 is connected to and utilise the busy cadences to correctly adjust the level.
Page 69
The 2060 will show an error screen if No dial tone is detected. Otherwise the number entered will be dialled, after the number is dialled the “phone level in – Rx Level” setup screen will be shown. Adjust the receive gain by using the left and right arrow keys, level should be set within the “Ideal”...
