Connector Information - Icom IC-R8600 Service Manual

SECTION 2
[10.7 MHz OUT]
Outputs the 10.7 MHz IF signal for
an external detector/demodulator circuit.
[REF I/O 10 MHz]
Outputs or inputs a 10 MHz
reference frequency signal.
You can change the signal direction
in the Set mode.
[I/Q OUT]
Outputs the Phase/Quadrature data which is
processed by the FPGA.
Connect a PC's USB port, to demodulate the DRM
broadcast or Software Defi ned Radio SDR.
[AF/IF]
Outputs the demodulate audio signal or 12 kHz IF
signal (unfi ltered). The output level is fi xed, regardless
of the volume control position.
[USB]
2 USB ports: Type B mini and Type B.
On the front panel
miniB type
 You can download the USB driver and installation
guide from the Icom website.

[MUTE] JACK / [MUTE] SWITCH
Used to mute the receiver
output.
(3.5 mm, ⅛ in (d))
When the Mute Switch is slid to right, the receiver
enters to the Bit Error Rate (BER) Measurement mode
for the maintenance purpose.
[METER]
Connects to an external meter.
Outputs the received signal
strength or squelch level.
(3.5 mm, ⅛ in (d))

• Outputs the decoded FSK (RTTY) signal, or D-STAR data.
• Outputs the demodulated signal or 12 kHz IF signal.
• Remote control interface for optional RS-R8600 (feature product).
• Programming interface for the optional CS-R8600.

MENU
When the [MUTE] is slid to left:
When this terminal is grounded, the receive circuit is turned OFF.
 Use this function when you use the IC-R8600 with a transceiver.
The sink current is approximately 1 mA at 8 V input.
When the [MUTE] is slid to right:
Connect a BER counter. In the BER Measurement mode,
the PN9 bit stream is output from this terminal.
• Output voltage: 8 V (maximum)
• Output impedance: 10 kΩ
 You can select the output signal from received signal strength
and squelch levels.
