You need to program one of the programmable outputs to TOR (this is a logic signal that goes active with received signal and proper tone).

In the course of connecting my new TKR-850 to my Arcom RC210 controller I found out that the repeater's "Squelch Control" ouput is not actually a CTCSS squelch signal, it is a COS signal only. In other words, the "SC" pin goes from 5v to 0v whenever ANY signal is on the receiver channel, whether or not it has the right CTCSS with it. The CTCSS is enabled for the channel in the programming (173.8), but it only cuts off the audio. The CTCSS enable is not reflected on the repeater's SC pin. When I change to the wrong CTCSS code on my handheld, the receiver speaker is quiet, and no audio gets to the controller, but the "busy" light on the front lights and the SC pin goes to 0v. I cannot see any other output pin for CTCSS enable ... so my option appears to be either to use an external CTCSS decoder or to find a signal in the receiver that does reflect the true CTCSS enable state. Anyone deal with this issue on a TKR-850? Thanks! Jim K7RNR Yahoo! Groups Links Yahoo!
