EDACS REPEATERS
2-11
EDIT CURRENT
General
The system parameters for the selected variant are set up from this screen. The new values or
selections are not effective until the [return] key is pressed to return to the
SYSTEM
PARAMETERS menu.
SYSTEM TITLE
Th
is allows you to enter a title of up to ten characters. After a title has been entered as the
SYSTEM TITLE and the system type re-selected, it is shown on the SYSTEM PARAMETERS menu
and also at the top left of the main title area. The system type keys display the first seven
characters of the new title. For example with a title changed to
SUPER the soft key would be
labeled [SUPER], if it were changed to
SUPEREDACS the soft key would be labeled [SUPERED]
When the [SYSTEM TITLE] key is pressed, a list of characters that can be used in the title is
displayed at the bottom of the screen. A cursor, controlled by the variable rotary control, is used
to select characters for the title. The right-hand soft keys are configured to control the entry of the
title.
To clear the current
SYSTEM TYPE title entry from the display either:
• Press the [delete char] key
• Press the [DELETE] key on the front panel
• Enter the first character of the new title
The first character of the title is selected from the character list by placing the cursor over it, then
pressing the [enter char] key. Pressing the data entry keys, including the decimal point and minus
sign, enters their character as the next in the title.
To delete the latest character placed in the title either:
• Press the [delete char] key
• Press the [DELETE] key on the front panel
Pressing the [title complet] key, enters the title as the
CURRENT SYSTEM title. When the
[return] key is next pressed, this becomes the system title, as described above.
Pressing the [return] key while the titling character list is displayed (i.e. before the [title complet]
key has been pressed), aborts the title entry and displays the
EDIT CURRENT screen.
EDIT CHANNELS
The al
location of frequencies to service providers for EDACS is not necessarily in continuous
frequency bands. To make maximum use of allocated frequencies, some frequency plans for a
system may be complex. To allow testing of repeaters programmed with such frequency plans, the
Service Monitor has 24 channels each of which have a Tx frequency, and an Rx frequency offset
associated with them.
Pressing the [channel edit] key gives access to a soft key list of possible channels. Any channel
from 1 to 24 can be edited by pressing the [more] key until the soft key associated with that
channel is displayed, then pressing that soft key, which displays the editchannel screen.
For example:
From the
EDIT CURRENT menu, to edit channel 12, press [channel edit], [more], [more],
[channel 12
].
INCLUDING/EXCLUDING
Each channel can be INCLUDED or EXCLUDED in the current EDACS repeater frequency plan,
from the edit channel screen. The [include/exclude] key toggles the channel between
INCLUDED
and
EXCLUDED.
