FCC RE QUIRE MENTS This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause interference to radio communications. It has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A computer device pursuant to sub-part J of Part 15 of FCC Rules, which are designed [...]

1 IN TRO DUC TION The B1474 Radio Modem provides a reliable method of sending 1200 baud data signals over radio or cable facilities. Digital information is converted to tone format for transmission over the communication channel. Received tones are converted back to RS232 digital format. Hardware handshaking using RTS and CTS signals allows the rad[...]

4 OP ER A TION The B1474 operates from 12 to 30 VDC to provide an interface between two computer devices and the communications channel. In the descriptions below it is assumed that the sending device uses a DCE configuration. Four different types of operation may be configured: Hard ware Hand shak ing Basic operation and timing using hardware hand[...]

Soft ware Hand shak ing Using XON / XOFF Basic operation and timing using XON / XOFF software handshaking are as follows: • The send ing com puter be gins send ing data. The for mat must be 8 data bits, no par ity, 1 stop bit. • Upon de tect ing data, the send ing mo dem per forms the fol low ing: – checks the chan nel, if this fea ture is en[...]

– checks the chan nel, if this fea ture is en abled. If the chan nel is free, it as serts its PTT to power up the ra dio’s trans mit ter. If the chan nel is busy, it buff ers the re ceived data un ti l the chan nel be comes free. – pres ents MARK tone (car rier) onto the chan nel. – sets its RTS/ CTS de lay timer (from 20 to 300 msec).

5 SETUP PRO CE DURES The semiconductors can be damaged by static discharge. Proper handling procedures must be followed . Do not touch any of the devices inside the modem, and work only in a static free, clean, and dry environment.

Using a non-shielded cable may result in undesirable ra[...]

Adjust R12 so that the modem waits when the channel is busy, and transmits when the channel is free. When the BUSY light is ON, the modem is waiting for the channel. To disable this feature, leave P1-9 unconnected and SW1.9 OFF. If Option 002 trunking software is used, set SW1.9 according to the polarity of the RFCTS signal connected into P1-9. Set[...]

To operate full duplex, leave SW2.8 OFF. To operate half duplex, set switch SW2.8 ON. If a 2 wire circuit is used, the modem will only operate half duplex. RTS Con trol SW3.1, when ON, will assert RTS continuously. This causes PTT to be asserted and transmit tones to be generated. The switch should be on for a no handshaking, non-buffered configura[...]

6 IN DI CA TORS The LED indicators on the front case are used to indicate modem status: RUN Power is on the modem. BUSY The modem is waiting to transmit but is held back by the squelch detector.
