THEORY OF OPERATION (400 MHz) MTM700 Mobile Radio / Detailed Service Manual 4.1 - 9
Controller Section
The controller section contains the RedCap2 dual core (DSP / RISC) processor and its external
memory, the TX and RX audio processing, the serial interfaces and I/O circuitry. The RedCap2 and
its external memory is placed on a sub-board in the controller section.
The RedCap2 controls the receive / transmit frequencies, power levels, control head display and
keypad, serial interfaces, accessories, MMI, and other radio functions. This microprocessor can be
operated through the RS232 interface by a personal computer to program the FLASH.
The TX audio circuitry selects between the different microphone inputs, controls the TX audio level
and converts the analog audio signal to a digital format.
The RX audio circuitry converts the received signal from digital format to an analog audio signal,
performs volume control and amplifies the signal to speaker level.
The DSP performs signalling, and voice encoding and decoding.
