3 RX AUDIO IN YEL SQUELCHED AUDIO
4 TX AUDIO IN GRN MIC AUDIO
5 POWER RED 12 - 15VDC
6 GROUND BLK
7 RELAY ORN CLOSURE WITH
8 RELAY WHT DECODE
NOTE: TX AUDIO OUT IS BEST CONNECTED TO A FLAT AUDIO INPUT. IF AN INPUT WITH PRE-
EMPHASIS (MIC INPUT) IS USED THEN SELECT DE-EMPHASIS IN THE PROGRAMMING MENU.
ENTER A GROUP CALL FOR THE HIGHEST AND LOWEST TONES YOU ARE USING. (SEE PROGRAMMING)
ADJUST AUDIO OUT (MULTI TURN POT) FOR PROPER DEVIATION ON BOTH TONES. DE-EMPHASIS CAN
BE ADDED IF NEEDED. (SEE PROGRAMMING)
THE RX AUDIO IN SHOULD BE CONNECTED TO SQUELCHED AUDIO THAT DOES NOT VERY WITH THE
VOLUME CONTROL.
GENERATE 3000 HZ INTO THE RADIO AT 1.5 KHZ DEV
ADJUST RX AUDIO IN (MULTI TURN POT) 1 FULL TURN PAST THE POINT WHERE THE READOUT READS
“RECEIVING AUDIO”. (CLOCKWISE IS MORE SIGNAL)
IF NOT USING DECODER, TURN THE RX AUDIO IN ADJUSTMENT ALL THE WAY COUNTER CLOCKWISE.
(20 TURNS)
THE RADIO MUST BE RECEIVING AT LEAST –100 DBM FOR THE DECODER TO WORK RELIABLY
OVER THE ENTIRE AUDIO FREQUENCY RANGE.
POWER IN A MOBILE INSTALLATION
IN A MOBILE INSTALLATION THE UNIT SHOULD BE POWERED FROM THE SWITCHED B+ FROM THE
RADIO OR A FILTER SHOULD BE USED ON THE POWER LINE TO REDUCE THE ELECTRICAL NOISE.
MOUNTING THE UNIT
THE ENCODER HAS 4 THREADED INSERTS ON THE BOTTOM OF THE HOUSING. THE INSERTS MATCH UP
WITH THE STANDARD PATTERN ON A PEDESTAL MOUNT.
DO NOT USE SCREWS LONGER THEN 1/4” IN THE MOUNTING INSERTS OR THE BOARD WILL BE
DAMAGED! DO NOT PUT THE 1/4” SCREWS (SUPPLIED) INTO THE MOUNTING INSERTS UNLESS IT IS
ON A MOUNT!

CUSTOM TONES
TONES THAT ARE NOT MOTOROLA OR PLECTRON CAN BE ADDED TO THE MEMORY. BE AWARE THAT
CUSTOM TONES THAT ARE VERY CLOSE TO TONES BEING USED COULD CAUSE FALSE ACTIVATIONS.
STEP 1
ENTER THE TONE. ENTER ALL THE DIGITS INCLUDING THE DIGIT AFTER THE DECIMAL POINT.
EXAMPLES:
288.5 ENTER 2885
1130.0 ENTER 11300
STEP 2
ENTER THE CODE FOR THE DECODE HIGH LIMIT.
DIVIDE 506000 BY THE TONE FREQUENCY AND ENTER THE RESULT.
MUST ENTER 4 DIGITS.
EXAMPLES:
506000 / 288.5 = 1753.899 ROUND TO 1754 AND ENTER
506000 / 1130.0 = 447.78 ROUND TO 0448 AND ENTER
STEP 3
ENTER THE CODE FOR THE DECODE LOW LIMIT.
DIVIDE 494000 BY THE TONE AND ENTER THE RESULT.
MUST ENTER 4 DIGITS.
EXAMPLES:
494000 / 288.5 = 1712.30 ROUND TO 1712 AND ENTER
494000 / 1130.0 = 437.17 ROUND TO 0437 AND ENTER
11
STEP 4
ENTER THE CODE FOR ENCODE
DIVIDE THE TONE BY 1.436 AND ENTER THE RESULT.
MUST ENTER 4 DIGITS.
288.5 / 1.436 = 200.91 ROUND TO 0201 AND ENTER
1130.0 / 1.436.= 786.91 ROUND TO 0787 AND ENTER
HOLD THE “#” IN FOR 5 SECONDS TO EXIT OR PROCEED TO NEXT OPTION

CLEARING THE DECODER MEMORY
CLEARING THE CUSTOM TONES MEMORY
SELECT “YES” OR “NO” FOR ANY OR ALL OF THE OPTIONS
HOLD THE “#” IN FOR 5 SECONDS TO EXIT OR PROCEED TO NEXT OPTION
INTERFACE ADD/DEL
AN INTERFACE UNIT CAN BE USED WITH THE SEIADVISOR TO CONNECT IT TO THE OVERHEAD
SPEAKER SYSTEM, LIGHTING ETC.
THIS OPTION MUST BE ACTIVATED TO WORK WITH THE INTERFACE.
WHEN A CALL IS RECEIVED THE INTERFACE UNIT PROVIDES THE FOLLOWING FUNCTIONS:
-ALERT TONES (VOLUME ASCENDING) ARE SENT OVER THE SPEAKER SYSTEM.
-RADIO TRAFIC IS SWITCHED TO THE SPEAKER SYSTEM.
-A RED LIGHT CAN BE ACTIVATED IN BUNK ROOM AND 30 SECS LATER THE ROOM LIGHTS COME ON
FOR 10 MINS.
-PROGRAMMABLE RELAY IS PROVIDED FOR THE STOVE, LIGHTS, DOORS ETC.
-THE CONTROL IS DONE THROUGH THE BUILDING WIRING
WITH Z WAVE OR UPB INTERFACES AND SWITCHES.
