All audio inputs and outputs are transient protected. The DSP-223 line transformers are not designed to operate on lines carrying direct current. If a DC voltage is on the line, isolate with external capacitors. If the line termination must conduct direct current, install a 600:600-ohm transformer designed for the current involved.
Set J19 to “B” position for 2-wire operation. 2.3 DSP-223 to Radio Connection 2.3.1 TX Audio Connection The DSP-223 has a number of options when connecting it to the radio. Set the jumpers according to the method outlined in your radio’s owner manual.
If a high-impedance point in the receiver is used, shielded cable is recommended. Note: When the speaker output is used, the radio volume control will affect the audio levels of the DSP-223. 2.3.3 PTT Connection Connect the radio PTT circuit to the PTT relay contact terminals. Connections on the DB25 or the 6 pin connectors may be used.
The Telex Handset (P/N 249248) may be connected to the DSP-223 to monitor receive and transmit audio. When the handset PTT switch is pressed, the DSP-223 will be key up the radio on the existing frequency and the handset microphone audio will be transmitted.
Table Usage: Converter (ADC). 1) Place a known signal level into the RX terminals of the Vega device being setup. 2) Determine the maximum signal level that the device will see. This table supports +10 and 0 dBm the row of the injected...
3.2 Radio TX Level Adjust Procedure Due to the large range of input requirements for the radios that can be connected to the DSP-223, there is not a prescribed way of setting the Radio TX levels. Radio TX test points (TP-5 & TP-6) on the front panel of the DSP-223 provide a location to measure the actual value being placed onto the radio TX inputs.
Tone Remote 4 Programming and Operation All programming for the DSP-223 is through an RS-232C serial port located on the front panel of the unit. Programming kit (P/N DSP223PRG) may be purchased separately from the DSP-223 and installed on a Windows 95 or newer computer.
40ms after the first function tone is sent so that a no tone can be decoded. If the 2175 hold tone, or other audio is present, the DSP-223 will attempt to decode this as the second half of the dual function tone.
Hold tone, it will remain keyed up allowing one radio to serve as the link to another DSP-223. PTT Tone Only causes the DSP-223 to not respond to a function tone and key up on detection of a valid Hold tone. This will eliminate all options that are function tone based, but allows the DSP-223 to be used in a most basic manner.
4.2.2.8 Individual Function Tone Setup The middle grid area of the main screen menu is used to set the actions of the DSP-223 when a particular function tone is received. The left most column is the function tone number. If the Function Tone Mode is set to single function tone, tones F1-F16 may be programmed.
Tone Remote 4.2.2.8.5 Digital Output Each function tone may be assigned a digital output. Valid entries are 0 – 64 that control the outputs labeled DIG0-DIG5. This is a binary output corresponding to the value entered. The table below shows the values and the resulting DIG0-DIG5 outputs.
F2 row. Selecting F4 would set the CTCSS tone in the F4 row. When PTT is pressed, F1 is the default frequency and the F4 CTCSS tone is sent. Some consoles, such as the Vega C-1610 and 6124 have a paired mode that makes this operation very simple.
4.2.2.9.1 Voter/Ring Down Tone Generation This grouping allows the DSP-223 to generate a user-defined tone on the Line TX pair in the event of an active logic signal on Pin 2 of the line connector or Pin-23 (DIG5) of the DB25 connector. Enable Tone on Dig5 Input must be checked to enable the feature.
The Send to 223 and Recv from 223 buttons are used to transfer configuration data between the DSP- 223 and the PC. The serial port of the DSP-223 and the PC must be connected using the provided serial cable.
Tone Remote 4.2.2.14 Radio TX Audio Filters The TX Filters button sets the options for controlling the radio TX audio. 4.2.2.14.1 AGC The AGC checkbox adds an Automatic Gain Control or audio compression to the radio TX audio. AGC will help to increase the level of low audio, and decrease the level of loud audio, resulting in a more consistent level being transmitted.

Vega DSP-223 4.3 DTMF Responder Functions A number of DTMF sequences may be sent to the DSP-223 from the console that may be used to affect the performance of the unit or initiate a test function. The standard activation sequence that precedes each command is DTMF .
Tone Remote 5 Theory of Operation The DSP-223 is a Digital Signal Processor (DSP) based product. Many of the signals that once could be probed on older products, are handled within the DSP itself. This includes DTMF decoders, notch filters, tone decoders, and all of the audio summing.
Alternately it can be run from the Start->Run menu as well. The dialog box contains a few options that can be used. 5) The first step is to put the DSP-223 into programming mode. This is done by first removing power from the unit.
