By doing so, you will have the required basic understanding of the various configuration settings options as well as instructions for basic setup. Reminder: Virtual channels (JPS Bridge and JPS RoIP) representing radio channels managed by a Z2 Controller or an ACU‑Z1 are not interfaced directly to radio systems. Radio channel configuration must be done on the device (ACU‑Z1 or RSP‑Z2) interfaced to the radio system.
For example, assume a problem is encountered when interfacing two radios to the Z-Series device, or interfacing a radio to a JPS RoIP backhaul channel. Use the handset or the headset to connect to each of the channels individually in turn. This will quickly identify the problematic channel.
DB-15 end of the cable that plugs into the Z-Series device analog ports, along with the small printed circuit board that is in other JPS cables. This circuitry has a variety of variable attenuating, terminating, and DC-blocking components; essentially everything that JPS Systems Engineers have deemed necessary to interface any of the several hundred types of radios they have created custom cables for.
Z-Series Audio Optimization Guide 3 Audio Adjustments 3.1 Receive (Input) Level – (RX Audio Level) The Receive Input levels in the Z-Series device GUI indicate the actual level of audio being received. If the incoming level is -12 dB, the Receive Input setting of the Radio Channel should be set to -12 dB.
Z-Series Audio Optimization Guide 3.2 Transmit (Output) Level – (TX Audio Level) The Transmit Output level should be set to properly modulate the donor radio transmitter. Audio coming from the donor radio, when doing a normal voice volume radio count, should be heard in the companion radio at the same level as received conversations from other radios in the system (as heard in the companion radio).
If the RX input of each radio is correct, the level received by the distant radio on the other side of the JPS RoIP link will be correct. If audio is set too low coming into the RSP-Z2 on the local radio, it will also be too low coming out of the remote RSP‑Z2.
These troubleshooting tips should resolve some of the most common problems encountered when setting up a radio interface.

Z-Series Audio Optimization Guide ✓ Solution: First – and this is important – it is extremely wise to make sure the Receive Audio Levels are set properly. Only after doing so, increase Transmit (Output) Level of transmitting Radio Channel until donor radio is properly modulated. 4.5 Symptoms: Audio Sounds too Loud or Distorted ▪...
