TB8100 Installation and Operation Manual Connection 109
© Tait Electronics Limited June 2005
Note The microphone input feeds simultaneously to both base station 1
and base station 2. However, the PTT can only be used on the
currently selected base station. The RS-232 connection is only to
the reciter on the currently selected base station. You should dis-
connect the Service Kit before switching base stations.
Note When a reciter fitted with a TaitNet RS-232 system interface
board is used in a TB8100 BSS, the RS-232 port on the control
panel is disabled. In this situation you must connect to the
RS-232 port at the rear of the reciter. Refer to “TaitNet
RS-232” on page 122 for more details.
Note If high-power HF equipment is located close to the TB8100 BSS,
it can sometimes cause interference to RS-232 serial port commu-
nications. If this interference does occur, we recommend fitting
ferrites on the serial cable close to the control panel. This recom-
mendation only applies to communication equipment perma-
nently connected to the BSS.
