Overview This manual provides instructions for the installation and testing of the console integration system. The system was designed to augment existing dispatch centers with a satellite back up for terrestrial communications. Installation of this device should be performed by certified installers with communications experience. Installation Instructions 1. Ensure that all items in the contents list are present. 2. Check for any visible damage to components. 3. Select an area on the existing communications system racking. The unit takes up 1U of space in a 19inch rack. 4. Bolt the CIS unit into the rack frame. 5. Locate an electrical outlet and plug in the power cord to both wall socket and the CIS unit. 6. Connect the console to the console port using the console interface cable. a. See Connections sections for details on the connector and the signals associated within them. b. Custom cables are needed to interconnect existing equipment with the CIS. These cables are specific to the console model and type. 7. Locate a place to mount the antenna, and bolt into place. See installation manual for SATRAD-PMK or SATRAD-TMK. 8. Connect the coax cable from the antenna to the SATRAD-G2. 9. Connect the power cable from the CIS to the SATRAD-G2 power port. 10. Connect the SATRAD-G2 handset port to the MSAT-TU port on the CIS using a straight through cat5 cable. 3

Configuring the Network Bridge This section describes the different states of the DIP switches, and how they can be set for different integration situations. If the existing system operates using EIA tone signaling, then skip this section. Remove any yellow kapton tape covering the switch before toggling the switch. Refer to the connection tables for locations of signal input and outputs. 1. PTT (push to talk) - The COR signal coming from the existing system may either be normally high and switch to low when receiving a transmission, or it may be normally low and switch to high. The switch needs to be in the position that matches the output logic of the existing system. The switch that needs to be toggled depends on which port the signal will be applied to. a. PTT1 Console b. PTT2 AUX/ARU c. PTT3 SB9600 COR signal detected 1 0 COR output logic of existing equipment 2. COR (carrier operated relay) The control method of the network bridge, for when the MSAT-G2 is receiving a signal, needs to be configured to match the expected PTT input logic for the existing equipment. There are 3 basic states these switches can select. a. Pull up active high PTT signal generated b. Pull up active low 1 0 Active Low State Active High State Active Low State Active High State PTT output logic of the network bridge c. No pull up This is for when the existing equipment has a positive signal that can be re-directed to the COR input on the same device. The network bridge will control it like normally open switch and close the switch when there is a COR signal from the G2. Is this state the network bridge doesn t supply any signals and the HI-LO switches are disabled. 3. Auto power up The network bridge can be configured to automatically turn back on in case of a power outage. Once power is restored the device will re-boot. If this in not desired toggle the switch to the OFF position. The device will then need to be manually turned back on when power is restored. 5

Beam Coverage This section details the satellite service coverage of the SATRAD system. In order to make select good installation locations review the graphic showing the approximate coverage of each beam. Note that in the fringe (between the borders of 2 beams) there can be cross over problems. Select the beam that offers the strongest signal strength. The SATRAD-CIS system automatically selects the current beam when the unit is commissioned. If the need arises to change the beam manually the CIS first needs to be placed into transparent mode. Follow the next set of instructions to change the beam. 1. Press the PWR button on the side of the handset. 2. As soon as the tone is heard release the PWR button. 3. Press the MENU key. 4. Scroll to the ADMIN selection and press select. 5. Scroll to the X-OVER selection and press select. 6. Scroll to the desired beam, and press select. 7. The system will now ask to continue, press yes. 8. Allow to the CIS to return to normal mode. The user must not press any button for 60 seconds. The CIS will reboot the transceiver, and a 2 tone beep series will be heard. 6

Power up This section describes the recommended testing steps to ensure that the installation has been properly performed. It will be helpful to have a person with another SATRAD-G2 system to perform receiving and transmit test. 1) Check the antenna, and ensure that there are no obstructions (including people, animals, trees, or buildings). 2) Connect the handset to the MSAT-HS port in the back of the CIS. 3) Turn the power on by pressing the red button on the front of the CIS. The power LED should light up. 4) Observe the LED s on the front of the CIS they all should light briefly. 5) During normal operation the LED s will act in the following manner. a b c d e From left to right the indicators are as follows. a) SATRAD steady on means the systems is running. b) Voice status i. Off when the PTT / COR is inactive. ii. On when the PTT /COR is pressed (push to talk request received). iii. Flashes quickly when voice data is being transmitted over the satellite (PTT is active). iv. Flashes slowly when voice data is being received over the satellite system. c) Interface, flickers when data is being exchanged between the CIS and the SATRAD-G2. d) Satellite i. Steady on means the satellite link is established. ii. Flashing means the link is currently being created. iii. Steady off means the link is down. e) Power; on indicates power is turned on, off indicates the power is turned off. 7

Test the System This section gives instructions on how to test the SATRAD-CIS once installed to ensure it is properly functioning. It will be helpful at this time to have a second SATRAD-G2 available to help test. 1) Press the PTT on the SATRAD hand set while at the same time observing the b LED. The LED should turn on. 2) Press the PTT button in the SATRAD handset, and speak a short message (testing 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10), and at the same time observe the voice status LED b. The LED should turn on, then after a few seconds the LED should flash rapidly. The handset will display USER-ON. The message should be heard on the second SATRAD-G2. Release the PTT button. 3) Request a voice transmission from the second SATRAD-G2. Observe the voice status indicator b, the LED should flash slowly. Observe the handset it should display the DN number (device number, 4 digits long) of the second SATRAD-G2. The audio should be heard at the handset. 4) At the console, select the SATRAD resource, then initiate a transmission and speak a short message. Observe the following: a. The voice indicator b should illuminate then flash quickly. b. The SATRAD handset should display USER-ON. c. The person on the second SATRAD-G2 should hear the message. 5) Request the person on the second SATRAD-G2 to transmit a voice message. Observe the following: a. The voice status indicator b should flash slowly. b. The SATRAD resource icon on the console should illuminate (where supported). c. The message is heard at the console. 8

Sequential Paging Formats Two-Tone Paging - Quick Call 2 is one of the many paging formats collectively known as Two-Tone paging. For most pages, the encoders produce two individual audio tones with specific timing, in sequence. The pagers receive the tones and examine them. If the transmitted tones and timing match what the pager was programmed for, the pager will activate. Individual / Group Paging - Motorola Quick Call 2 paging codes are transmitted at a 1 second, 3 second timing with no silence gap between the tones. The timing is referred to as 1/3 and is pronounced, "one second, three second" not "one divided by three". 1/3 timing is normally employed to activate individual pagers or groups of pagers. All-Call - QC2 also has a provision to activate an entire fleet of individual or group pagers with one signal. This is the All-Call page. An All-Call page is a continuous tone, which lasts for 8 seconds. Pagers, which have the All-Call tone as part of their individual or group tone, will normally activate with this All-Call signal as well. Pressing the same code button twice on the encoder normally activates all-call paging. For example, if you enter the code 61 from code group 4, the encoder knows you want to send a 1 second / 3 second page with the tones 445.7 Hz & 339.6 Hz. However if you enter the code 66 from code group 4, the encoder will send an 8 second All-Call page of 445.7 Hz. Stacked Paging - Many paging encoders and most law enforcement and fire department communications consoles, have the ability to transmit an entire group of pages with the press of one button. Each page is transmitted with a small silence gap (usually one second) inserted between each page so the pagers can determine the end of a page, then analyze if that last page was for them. Activate other devices - Paging technology is also incorporated into other control devices. These are usually referred to as receivers/decoders/controllers also known as "RDC". The RXC-2000 is an RDC. The first two functions of receiving and decoding are exactly what a pager does, however the controller function is what really sets them apart. An RDC has various output relays and audio, in addition to local activation controls which can be programmed to perform various actions when it picks up the correct paging code. Whereas a pager can only beep and give a voice message, an RDC can take that same pager signal and begin an entirely new process of controlling equipment and process from the same page. A common function for an RDC is to activate a fire siren when a fire call is dispatched. Using internal timers and output relays, the RDC can engage the siren for a predetermined time, and then automatically turn it off. RDC's can also open overhead doors, turn on pumps, light up rooms or equipment bays and engage PA systems to deliver audio messages. All this is done transparently using the same signal sent to the pagers.

A single transmit level POT on the BIM adjust all of these signals together. The relative levels of these five types of signals are fixed according to the description below: 1. TONE REMOTE CONTROL The relative amplitude of High Guard, Function Tone, and Low Guard are defined according to the Tone Remote Control Standards such that Functional Tone is 10 db below High Guard and Low Guard is 30 db below High Guard. 2. VOICE A 1000 Hz tone injected into the microphone path above the DLM (Digital Line Memory) threshold should be near the level of High Guard. With the dynamic of the DLM circuit, overage voice will be 6 to 10 db below the level of this tone. 3. PAGING TONES Paging Tones are de-emphasized with a pole at 300 Hz to compensate for the pre-emphasis at the base station. As a result paging tones are transmitted flat. The relative amplitude of the paging tones is adjusted to be slightly higher than average voice for 1000 Hz tones. Lower frequency tones may be as much as 9 db higher than overage voice and high frequency tones may be as much as 9 db lower according to the de-emphasis curve. This assures maximum signalling sensitivity without the risk of distortion and false signalling due to IDC clipping. 4. ALERT TONES The primary purpose intended for alert tones is to provide means for altering field units under certain conditions. The amplitude of this tone received by the field unit should be loud enough to demand attention but not so loud as to be painful. This is also the level of 1000 Hz paging tones. NOTE: If a paging exist on a particular channel, the Alert Tones should not be set higher than 0 db to avoid clipping of low frequency paging tones in the BIM line driver. 5. TEST TONES As on aid to setting transmit level, a BIM will generate a sequence of tones after its reset button is depressed and released. This sequence of tones consists of 5 seconds of 1000 Hz followed by 3 seconds of 300 Hz followed by 3 seconds of 3000 Hz. The amplitude of these tones will be the same as Alert Tones and 1000 Hz Paging Tones. All three test tones are transmitted at the same level and provide a simple means of checking frequency response of the signal path to the base station. Since Guard Tone is not present during the test tone sequence, the transmitter will not key. 15

There attached chart provides a graphical representation of the relative signal levels for a typical example where the Test Tone is set for 0 dbm. In this case 300 Hz paging tones would be +9 dbm and 3000 Hz paging tones would be 9 dbm. Adjusting the BIM transmit pot will move all these signals up or down together.

Review the wiring for proper interconnection. 2. Check the RUN / PROG switch and ensure that it is in the RUN position. 3. Ensure the power has been turned on. If the system doesn t reboot after a power failure open the CIS and locate the auto POWER-UP switch beside the fan and toggle to the on position. 4. Check for proper beam selection. If the signal strength is below 70 then the wrong beam may be selected. For any further questions contact technical support. a. Web: http://helpdesk.networkinv.com b. Toll Free: 1 866 708 1880 c.
