The RLC-1 may seem complicated and intimidating at first, but don't worry. Setting it up and programming it are easy and straightforward, once you have read the manual. Please take the time to read it before you try to start programming. This will save you a lot of confusion and frustration, as it should answer most of your questions. The RLC-1 repeater controller consists of one repeater port, one linking port, four analog voltage inputs, four logical (dry contact) inputs, and five MOSFET output drivers. The repeater and linking ports can be configured to require combinations of COR and PL inputs for access. The RLC-1 has a single DTMF decoder that scans between the two receiver ports, thereby supporting DTMF control from all ports of the controller. Speed selectable Morse Code prompts the users in the programming of the controller's variables. This manual consists of three main sections: setup and interfacing, programming and commands, and the appendices with commonly referenced tables and charts. A glossary has also been included at the end to explain some of the terms and abbreviations that are used throughout the manual. We have attempted to explain everything in a way that is easy to understand, but some questions are inevitable. If you have carefully read the manual and still have questions, please contact us.

The numbered steps cover the basics, through connecting your radios and adjusting the RLC-1. After that there is information concerning the other input and output features of the RLC-1: the serial interface, the logical output and input lines, and the analog input lines. Step #1: Check the Packing List Your package should contain the following items: (1) RLC-1 Repeater Controller (1) 2.50mm Power Connector (3) DB-9 Male Solder Connectors (1) DB-25 Male Solder Connector (1) RLC-1 Manual If any of these parts are missing, contact Link Communications. Step #2: Connect Power - The RLC-1 was designed to run off of 12V DC. 11V to 14V should work fine. - Locate the 2.50mm power connector included in your parts bag. - Unscrew the plastic outer shield and thread your power and ground wires through it (20 gauge suggested). - Solder the +12V wire to the center pin of the 2.50mm connector. - Solder the ground wire to the shield of the 2.50mm power connector. - Screw on the plastic outer shield. - When power is applied to the RLC-1 controller, the DTMF Valid LED will flicker, and the Repeater port transmitter will send out a CW message 'RESET ?' Step #4: Connecting Your Receivers to the RLC-1 The main repeater and the link port connect to the RLC-1 using male DB-9 connectors (included). Main Port and Link Port 1 - Ground Reference 2 - PL Input (Active Low) 3 - PTT Out (Active Low) 4 - Audio Out (10K OHM) 5 - Audio In (10K OHM) 6 - Ground Reference 7 - COR Input (Selectable Polarity) 8 - Ground Reference 9 - Ground Reference Connecting the Receiver COR: - The first step in connecting your receiver is to locate a COR signal. This signal indicates if the receiver is active or inactive. The RLC-1 will accept either an Active high COR (Goes from ground to above 4 volts, or open), or an Active low COR (Goes from a voltage greater than 4 volts, to a ground, or goes from an open to a ground). The input impedance of the RLC-1 COR input is 10Kê and it is diode clamped with internal pull-up resistors. This allows it to handle input voltages of up to 40 volts without damage to the controller. The COR input must not go below 0V (ground); this would damage the Micro-Processor. Selecting COR Polarity Jumpers: Once you have determined the polarity of your COR signal, you need to tell the RLC-1 what the polarity is. This is accomplished using jumpers J4 for the Main Receiver COR, and J5 for the Link Receiver COR. When the jumper is connected across the 2 pins, the COR is expected to be Active Low. When the jumper is not connected across the 2 pins, the COR is expected to be Active High. The RLC-1 comes shipped with the COR's selected to be Active Low (Jumper Connected) Using one of the supplied DB-9 Male connectors, connect your COR signal to pin #7 Connecting a PL Input (optional): - If you wish to use a PL (CTCSS) decoder on any of the receivers, it can be connected to pin #2 of the appropriate connector in the same fashion as the COR input. See Commands C005..C006 for information on using the PL input. Connecting the Receiver Audio: - 2 types of audio can be used on the RLC-1 controller: Type 1: Deemphasized audio (Speaker Audio) Type 2: Discriminator audio (Raw Unsquelched Audio) - If type 1 audio is used, remove the appropriate jumper on the controller. This removes the deemphasis filter from the circuit. As the controller comes shipped, all ports are set up for type 1 audio. J1 - Main Receiver Deemphasis Jumper J2 - Link 1 Receiver Deemphasis Jumper - If type 2 audio is used, place the appropriate jumper in circuit (over both pins). This will place a - 6dB/octave deemphasis filter into the circuit. Some discriminators can not directly drive the 10Kê input impedance. If this is the case, a pre-driver or different audio access point will be required. - The audio input is connected to pin #5 of the male DB-9 connector - The audio adjustments will be described in Step #5. How the DTMF Decoder Works: The RLC-1's DTMF decoding circuit uses a scanner that enables the controller to receive tones from all the ports, without mixing the two receiver's audio together. This allows the receivers to have total control of the DTMF decoder when its Receiver is active. Once the decoder has detected a tone on one of the ports, it stops scanning and waits up to four seconds for the next digit. It is reset at the beginning of each DTMF digit. If any of the DTMF digits are held for longer than 4 seconds or there is a pause of 4 seconds between digits, the DTMF scanner will resume scanning and all digits entered up to that point will be lost. Step #5: Connecting Your Transmitters to the RLC-1 Transmitter PTT: - The RLC-1 produces an active low PTT signal (ground when PTT is active). This output is buffered with an open drain type driver capable of sinking 150mA. There is a built in 30V zener clamping diode to protect the PTT MOSFET from the high voltage spikes that can be caused by interfacing to a PTT relay coil. Your transmitter PTT input should be connected to pin #3 of the DB-9 connector. Transmitter Audio: - The RLC-1 provides a 10Kê output impedance to your transmitter audio input. - The transmitter audio is connected to pin #4 of the DB-9 connector. - The audio levels will be adjusted in Step #5. - If it is not already, the DB-9 plug can now be plugged into the appropriate jack on the main board. The link port is located to the left of the main port connector. Step #5: Adjusting the RLC-1 Controller Locate connector J10 on the RLC-1 (it is above the 2 voltage regulators). This test bus will provide the signals that we need to adjust the inputs on the RLC-1. In order to maintain audio deviation during channel switching, all of the receiver inputs must be set to the same level. These signals can be measured with an oscilloscope or an AC voltmeter. If you are using a meter, you will need to adjust to 1.4 volts RMS, which is equivalent to 2.0 volts peak-to-peak measured with an oscilloscope. In order to obtain an audio signal on J10, a valid COR or PL must be received (See Access Modes for the proper signal style). Main Receiver: Transmitter Port Adjustment: - Present a stable DTMF tone to the Main RX. - Adjust the Main RX pot on pin 1 of J10 (Labeled MI) to 2 volts peak-to-peak. - This pot is Labeled MAIN REC. R11 - Adjust the Main TX pot to obtain the desired deviation. Link Receiver Port Adjustment: - Present a stable DTMF tone to the Link RX. - Adjust the Link RX pot on pin 2 of J10 (Labeled LI) to 2 volts peak-to-peak. - This pot is Labeled LINK REC. R15 - Adjust the Main TX pot to obtain the desired deviation. Main Transmitter Adjustment: - Present the Main RX with the same DTMF tone used earlier. - Adjust R19 (MAIN TRANS.) Pot to the desired deviation. - Access to the Main TX Audio is available at J10, Pin 5 (Labeled MO) Link Transmitter Adjustment: - Present the Main RX with the same DTMF tone used earlier. - Command Main-Link Connection using Command C000 - Adjust R25 (LINK TRANS.) Pot to the desired deviation. - Access to the Link TX Audio is available at J10, Pin 6 (Labeled LO) Beep Adjustment: - Adjust R4, MAIN TONE until it "sounds" good, or about 1.5 Khz. Deviation - Adjust R5, LINK TONE until it "sounds" good, or about 1.5 Khz. Deviation Serial Port Interfacing The RLC-1 has a serial terminal port for interfacing to any serial device, i.e. packet and serial terminal. This allows the user to monitor, control, and program all facets of the controller. The serial terminal carries highest priority for access and programming of the RLC-1. There is an 8 digit password needed to log on to the serial port of the controller, ensuring the security of the system. The format for the input password is simply " [$$$$$$$$]" , where "$" is any ASCII character. The serial system can not be accessed from the DTMF port decoder, only via a serial system. The RLC-1 output is the RS-232 standard, ñ12V. Pin-Out Serial P1 Connector 1 - No Connection 2 - RS-232 Data Output (To Your Terminal) 3 - RS-232 Data Input (From your Terminal) 4 - No Connection 5 - Ground Reference 6 - No Connection 7 - No Connection 8 - No Connection 9 - Ground Reference Local Terminal Interfacing When using a local ASCII terminal at the RLC-1's location, an ASCII terminal can be used to communicate with the programming features of the RLC-1. The terminal's communication parameters must be set to: Baud ............. 2400 Start Bits........... 1 Stop Bits ........... 1 Parity .............. N Word Length ........ 8 These parameters will allow communication with the RLC-1. For system operations, see the next section "Operation and Programming Over the Serial Port". Operation and Programming Over the Serial Port The RLC-1's serial port gives the controller the ability to communicate with the world over a digital radio link. The RLC-1 has a security key of 10 characters that must be entered properly in order to have the RLC-1 communicate with your computer terminal. The syntax of the initial password is as follows: [$$$$$$$$] "[" is the first character entered "]" is the last character entered "$" is any ASCII character except the "[" or "]" The default password is: [ABCDEFGH] Once the proper password has been entered, the RLC-1 will respond with the message "RLC-1: LOG ON" If you did not receive this message after you logged on, then check: - Are you already logged on? - Do you have the correct password, including CAPS LOCK? - Is your serial port connected and configured correctly? Once on the serial system, you have access to all features of the RLC-1, and several special commands only for the serial user. A very important note, all commands entered over the serial port must begin with a "[" and end with a "]" in order to be accepted. Serial Command Structures: - Upper Case Letters must be used - You must log on before any control can take place - Lack of activity on the serial port will cause an automatic log off after 1 minute RLC-1 Command Entry: - All command names must be 4 characters long -- Command name "12" must be entered as "0012" - No key is needed in the data string -- To do a keypad test, the normal DTMF tones are: C041*123456789* -- Over the serial port the data string is: [C041123456789] - Commands are entered exactly like over the are, except for the above "Rules" - CW response will be over the Main Repeater port, unless the Command states Different - Characters entered for RLC-1 Commands must be limited to the DTMF Tones -- 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 A B C D * # -- Do not use you key in the string, it will cause incorrect execution of the command Serial Commands Entry Format: - All Serial Commands begin with the Letter "S" - The Commands number from 00 .. 05 Serial Commands: S00 - Dump of Command Names C000 : C001 : C002 : ..

It is very important not to forget your serial log-on. If you forget your log-on name, controller re-initialization will be needed. Format for programming: [S03 ######## $$$$$$$$] ######## is the Current Serial Password, 8 Characters in Length $$$$$$$$ is the New Serial Password, 8 Characters in Length The Serial Output : [ Old: ######## New: $$$$$$$$ ] S04 - System Configuration View Screen This command allows the user to view the system configuration for each port. The screen will show each ports access type, either COR or COR and PL. This command also allows the port configurations, either repeater port or a link port. Configuration: Access: Main: COR (or) COR and PL (or) RX/TX Off Link: COR (or) COR and PL (or) RX/TX Off Connect Type: Main: Repeater Port (or) Link Port -----, <---- , <---> Link: Repeater Port (or) Link Port ----- Indicates No Communication Between Ports <---- Indicates Communication only 1 Direction <---> Indicates Communication both Directions S05 - Serial System Log OFF This command logs the serial server off the RLC-1 Controller. The Serial Port Log-Off Message will appear when you Log-Off. If you do not Log-Off, the RLC-1 will automatically Log-Off after 1 Minute of Non-Activity. "RLC-1: LOG OFF" Logical Latched Output Lines The RLC-1 offers 5 logical control lines for site control. These 5 latched control lines are power MOSFETs in "open drain" configuration. Because the output lines are open drain, the user will not measure any voltage on the output lines, only an open or a ground. In order to check the condition of the control lines, a meter set to resistance will be needed. The meter will read an open when the control line is off and closed (connected to ground) when the control line is on. When using a semiconductor device as a latch, certain current limitations are imposed. The MOSFET used can sink (apply a ground), of 150mA. If this current is exceeded, the MOSFET will short and destroy the device. The RLC-II has a 30V zener clamping diode on each output line to protect the MOSFET from damage when using a relay on the output line. Figure #2 shows how to connect a relay to one of the output lines. (See Command Listing for output control line commands).

These lines recognize an open/ground input change. These lines are internally pulled up to +5 Volts and zener diode clamped to 5 Volts. This allows direct interface to higher voltage inputs that do not exceed +40 Volts. The application to site users is great: door open/closed magnetic contacts (See Figure #3a), local site controlled switches, and site power monitoring relays (See Figure #3b). These are just a few of the applications that the logical input lines can be used for.

This is a nice feature that allows the site owner to monitor analog conditions like temperature, site voltages (See Figure #4a and following page), forward and reflected power, heat sink temperature, and much more. The RLC-1 comes set up to measure 0-4 Volts with 20mV resolution. Several voltage conversion faceplates are provided to convert an input voltage to another function. Included faceplates: 1 - Voltage 0.00 - 4.00 Volts 2 - Voltage 00.0 - 25.0 Volts * 3 - Celsius Temperature 4 - Fahrenheit Temperature It is important not to apply over 10 volts to the RLC-1 analog inputs*. If this voltage level is exceeded, damage to the analog opamp will occur.

Please note that this circuit drops the voltage that actually reaches the input of the RLC-1 to 4 volts or less when the input to the divider is 25 volts or less. To read temperatures with the LMx35 temperature sensors, you should install the appropriate jumper: J6..J9. This provides power to the sensor. The jumpers should be removed for all other applications. Figure #4a Site AC House Power Monitor Other Analog Input Examples Programming and Commands This section of the manual first discusses some of the things you need to know that are common to all of the commands. It then has a list of the commands sorted according to their function, a list sorted according to the command name, and lastly a detailed description of what each command does and how it is used. Command Names The default command names all begin with the letter 'C'. This 'C' is part of the command name, not just an indication that it is a command. For example, to connect the link to the main port, you would enter the DTMF tones 'C', '0', '0', '0', '*'. This assumes that your DTMF pad has 16 keys (0-9, *, #, A-D); the letters corresponding to the numbered keys on a telephone (2=A,B,C) will not work. The command names can be changed with Command C038. The Key The key refers to the key that is used to tell the controller that the command has been entered (with the DTMF pad) and that it is time to act on it. It is also used to separate the command name from any parameters (extra data) it might have. The key is '*' by default, but this can be changed with Command C039. Programming Messages Link, and ID messages in the RLC-1 can be changed to a message more specific to your controller. This is done with command C036, "Message Program Utility." These messages are composed of CW characters, the codes for which are found in the CW Table (Appendix A). Each character is identified by a two digit code (leading 0s are necessary for short codes). Each message has a specific maximum length, although not all messages have the same maximum. See Commands C036, and C037 for more information on message programming, and C014, C015 and C016 for CW frequency and speed.

These conditions are based on the state of the COR and PL (CTCSS) inputs. The RLC-1 will accept either an Active High COR (COR goes from ground, or 0 Volts to a point above 4 Volts), or an Active Low COR (COR goes from a voltage above 4 Volts, to ground, or 0 Volts). The COR polarity is selected using the 2 COR jumpers: J4 for Main port, and J5 for Link port. If the jumper is connected across the 2 pins, then the COR must be Active Low. If the jumper is not connected, then the COR is Active High. PL (CTCSS) inputs must be Active Low in order for the RLC-1 to recognize activity. They can be inverted with a transistor if necessary. Either just COR or both COR and PL inputs must be active, depending on the access mode, in order for the RLC-1 to recognize the receiver.

When muting is enabled, the RLC-1 will begin muting as soon as a valid DTMF digit is detected (a short "bleep" is inevitable) and continue muting as long as at least one digit is entered each second. This allows multiple tones to be muted without each one causing a "bleep." One second after the last tone ends, the audio is returned to normal. This command controls the muting audio routed to the Main and Link Transmitter.

They can be set for 01 to 99 minutes The timers will keep track of a port's receiver traffic. After a specified time of being continuously active, the RLC-1 will disable the port's PTT circuit, turning the transmitter off. Using this feature is only needed with full duplex links and is rarely used. When using the port as a repeater port the user should conform to FCC regulations concerning timing for "automated control" of your transmitter. The time-out features for the Main Port pertain only to Main's traffic. If, for example, Main's transmitter is consistently keyed by Link's receiver, Main will not time-out. If Main's transmitter is consistently keyed by Main's receiver, then after $$ minutes, the transmitter will be unkeyed until the carrier drops to reset that timer. This feature is also available on the Link port's transmitter.

This timer is used to determine how long the delay will be between the times the receiver becomes inactive and the courtesy beep is sent. The use of the timer is to keep the courtesy beep from being sent every time the receiver becomes inactive. Since a courtesy beep will not be sent while the receiver is active, a courtesy beep will only be sent during periods of receiver inactivity longer than this timer. Normally it is set for 1 second.

All Rights reserved Specifications subject to change without notice. RADIO SETUP CONT... Set the step size to 5KHz. (25Khz on 1200 Mhz units) Set dual band radio's to single band. Set power to desired setting. Remember, remote base transmitters can have a high duty cycle because it will be transmitting during all activity on the Repeater side. The mobile radio's used in a remote base configuration should be set to low power in most cases. Set VFO/MEM to VFO for external frequency input. Set CTCSS for desired frequencies. When using TM-X31/X41 series it will be set by the controller and will override your initial setting. Set CTCSS Decode to off. Set ABC and AL to off on models that support it. Turn off Repeat functions. Once these have been set, connect the Mike jack to the RBI. Reset the RBI to initialize the radio to the controller and get them in sync. Any time there is manual changes from the radio front panel, the RBI and the Radio can get out of sync. This will require a RBI reset to correct. We recommend hooking the reset line from the RBI to a toggled User function output. Initialize the User function to "1" on and save those in all your Macro's or the reset line will be held low and disabled. To reset just interrogate the user function, this will toggle the reset line and reset the RBI.

All command names that are less than four digits must be padded with leading zeros to four digits when using this command. Command name "12" would be entered as "0012". Command Name "1200" would be entered as "1200". Afterward, when executing those commands, any leading zeros can be omitted. This command is capable of changing its own name. Care should be taken to keep track of what name each command is changed to. Appendix C contains charts to assist you in this. It is highly recommended that you use them. It is possible to "lose" a command; if you don't know its name, you can't rename it. If this happens, you can either live without that command or re initialize the whole controller. The only exception to this is if you have a serial terminal and do a command dump with Serial Command [S00].

is pressed, a warm reset is processed. This reset will load the most recently programmed variables into the controller. The variables are stored in the nonvolatile EEPROM cell located inside the microprocessor. If the variables in the EEPROM get scrambled somehow, a cold boot will be needed. This cold boot resets all of the RLC-1's variables to the factory settings - anything you have programmed will be lost. This cold boot is accomplished by pressing and holding the initialize switch and pushing the reset switch. You must hold the initialize switch down for at least 5 seconds when resetting. Once the controller has been initialized, the reset switch must be pushed and released. The RLC-1 takes about 15 seconds to re-initialize the EEPROM. The initialization process will be complete when the RLC-1 sends out the reset message "RESET ?". At this point you must press and release the reset switch. Appendix F - Troubleshooting No Audio at Test Bus: - Check for main system power (+12 Volts plugged in). - Is there a valid COR signal present? -- Check the COR polarity jumper. -- Is the Access mode COR and PL? If so are both signals active? Have audio at the test bus, but not on the transmitter: - Are the output audio pots turned up (clockwise)? - Is the transmitter connected to the audio output (high)? The CW Volume seems Low: - Turn up the pot marked "Main Tone" or "Link Tone." When I connect my COR, the RLC-1 will not accept it: - Does the COR go to ground when active? -- If so is the COR polarity jumper connected? - Does the COR go above 4 volts when active? -- If so is the COR polarity jumper disconnected? - Can the COR sink 2mA when active? - Does the 5V pull-up resistor conflict with your radio? -- Motorola R-100 Repeaters are susceptible to this -- Solution: open collector the driver on R-100 repeaters When I connect my serial terminal, I do not get any data: - Is your terminal set to 2400,N,8,1? - Is your serial terminal plugged into P1 serial connector? - Are all the RS-232 TX and RX and ground wires connected? - You should use a straight-through (not null-modem) cable in most cases. DTMF Valid LED flashes, but nothing happens - Is there a valid COR present? - Is the transmitter hooked up? - Is the RLC-1 in the Proper Access Mode (COR or COR and PL)? Glossary: Dry Contact Input - A input that is commonly used with a typical on/off switch for detecting such things as open doors. - The DTMF key that tells the controller that the command has been entered. It is also used to separate command names from the parameters. Kerchunk - Quickly keying up and unkeying a receiver.
