TX Tail
Enable
When this check box is selected, the TX Tail Timer is enabled.
TX Tail Timer Also known as transmitter hang time. After a valid TX key signal has been removed
from the TA2922 board input, the radio transmitter continue to be keyed for the
period of this timer. Note that line input audio is not muted during the TX tail
and any line audio present during the TX tail is passed to the radio transmitter.
Adjustable between 0.1 and 25.5 seconds
Anti-
Kerchunker
After the TX key signal is removed and the radio stops transmitting, if the radio
begins receiving immediately afterwards, the TA2922 board delays the activation
of the RX gate signal according to the Anti-Kerchunker timer. This is used when
linking to repeaters that have a transmitter tail or hang time.
When the Anti-Kerchunker timer is set to the same duration as the repeater tail,
this prevents the repeater tail from affecting link radio operation.
Adjustable between 0.1 and 25.5 seconds
RX Line Out
uses RX_AUD
When this check box is cleared, the RX line audio source is the radio's
programmable AUD_TAP_OUT audio source, resulting in a fixed line level with
the flat/de-emphasised response set according to the tap point location
programmed in the radio software.
When this check box is selected, the RX line out audio source is after the radio
volume control. This results in de-emphasised variable level line audio output level.
Note that in some TM8000/TM9000 configurations, the RX_AUD line becomes
fixed in value, such as when multi-head configurations are used, or with some
remote head options. Consult your Tait dealer for more information.
MIC PTT on
IOP_GPIO5
If the radio IOP_GPIO5 line becomes active (low), the TA2922 board outputs a
valid RX gate signal. This is for applications where receiver line audio out must
carry audio from the radio's receiver as well as audio from the control head fist
microphone. The is possible when the radio is programmed so that a microphone
PTT press is mirrored on IOP_GPIO5, and the programmable audio from Mic
PTT is configured to split the audio to a Tap Out location.
Powerup
Serial Timer
Enable
When this check box is selected, the Powerup Serial Timer is enabled (see below)
to enable serial data to be passed transparently from the radio's internal option
connector to the RS-232 lines on the option TA2922 board I/O
Powerup
Serial Timer
When the Powerup Serial Timer expires after power on, all serial data to/from the
radio internal options port is transparently routed to the option TA2922 board RS-
232 I/O lines for communication with external data equipment, e.g. GPS or a
CCDI interface.
The purpose of the Powerup Serial Timer is to provide a short period of time
where the TA2922 board can be read or programmed by the programming
application. After the Powerup Serial Timer expires, the TA2922 board is only
