1. TX ANT
This N-type coaxial jack provides the
transmitter output signal for connection to
the
transmitting antenna, or TX jack on the
duplexer, if used. Impedance requirement
is 50Q.
2. RX ANT
This N-type coaxial jack accepts the re-
ceiver
input signal from the receiving an-
tenna or RX jack on the duplexer, if used.
Impedance requirement is 50Q.
3. AC
This receptacle accepts the AC power cord,
which should be connected to the AC
Mains supply or wall outlet. The AC line
voltage
must match that for which the re-
peater is wired.
4. BA TT terminal posts
The terminal posts accept 12-15-V DC for
operating the repeater from a battery or
other DC source. When operating from AC
mains, a small trickle current is present at
these terminals to maintain battery charge.
A
battery rated for 12 volts, 55 Ah (mini-
mum) is recommended for short-term
emergency /backup operation .

5. LINE
This 8-pin modular jack is used for remote
control and provides TX & RX audio, TX
keying and squelch status output. Imped-
ance is 600Q.
6. ACC
This DB-25 connector provides a data in-
terface
between the microprocessor in the
VXR-5000 and peripheral devices (such as
the
VTS-100 VX- TRUNK unit).
7. LED Indicators
TX - This LED glows red when transmit-
ting.
AC - This LED glows green during AC
operation.
BATT - This LED glows orange during DC
operation.
8. Programming Jack (inside cabinet)
This 8-pin
modular-type jack is located in-
side the repeater cabinet on top of the
CNTL unit. The modular plug from the
VPL-1 Cable or FRB-2 Service Kit cable is
inserted here for channel programming
using the CE-8 channel editor software,
and an IBM PC® fPC-compatible personal
computer with RS-232 serial port .
