RLC-Club Version 1.78b V1.78 is very stable, but causes the RLC-Club's voice synthesizer to skip words. V1.78b fixes that problem, while making no other changes. If you are upgrading from V1.78 to V1.78b, you should not need to reinitialize and reprogram; just power down the controller and swap the EPROMs. Known Problems and Workarounds (the same as in V1.78): - If you plan to use the reverse patch in mode 2 (DTMF control mode), you will need to use command 075 to clear the stop access conditions first. If you do not, it will only let you execute one command, then it will ignore you. The workaround in V1.78 is to execute command 075 manually: "075 P 00000" where P is 3 for the RLC-Club, 4 for the RLC-4, and the patch port on the RLC-3. - V1.77 workaround (not needed in V1.78): When placing a call from a preaccess repeater while other ports are connected, the other ports may not be automatically included in the call as they should be. The solution is to enter "075 P 111" where P is the port number of the preaccess repeater that the call is being placed from. - RLC-4 workaround (V1.77 and V1.78): to change the frequency of the tone heard when you enter the access code of a preaccess link, use command 049 and the following format: "049 P ffff 0000" where P is the port number and ffff is the frequency in Hertz. The final four 0's will not be needed in future versions. - RLC-3 and RLC-Club workaround: when using command 190 to recall the user level required to execute a large range of commands, the controller may reset rather than providing the command response. To avoid this, turn off serial queuing with "060 0110" first: 060 0110 ; turn serial queueing off 190 000 500 ; recall level for commands 0-500 060 0111 ; turn serial queueing back on - The synthesized voice words "goodbye", "tick/toc", "approach" and "Mount Hamilton" may not work correctly. They should be corrected in a future version. - The voice response to command 084 includes an extra word that changes with the slot number. It says . The extra word can just be ignored. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ You can find this file and the others described below on our internet ftp site, ftp://ftp.link-comm.com.
