4. If your transceiver has an INHIBIT input (Yaesu often labels INHIBIT "LINEAR" on the BAND DATA jack),
connect inhibit input of your transceiver to the INHIBIT output jack of SM.
Important: Connecting INHIBIT is best way to prevent hot switching.
5. Remove the top cover from Station Master and set the CAT jumpers as shown in the following chart. The
CAT interface jumpers must be configured to select the proper signal level for your transceiver.
RS-232 levels:
All transceivers with RS-232 CAT inputs
IF-232 levels:
Kenwood: TS-140, 440, 450, 680, 690, 711,
790, 811, 850, 940, 950
FIF-232 levels:
Yaesu: FT-100, 736, 747, 757GXII, 767, 817,
840, 857, 890, 897, 900, 980, 990, 1000, 1000D
CI-V levels:
Icom: all radios (except 7700/78xx when
using the DB9/RS-232 jack)
TenTec: all radios with 3.5 mm jack
NOTE: the CAT interface is not configured at the factory.
6. Connect a 13,8 to 16V DC supply to the DC 13.8V jack.
Be sure to observe the proper polarity. Do not turn on Station Master at this time.
7. Locate the USB cable but DO NOT connect it to the USB jack of Station Master at this time.
Connecting Station Master without a micro HAM "keyer"
1. If you are not using microHAM "keyer," connect the appropriate CAT cable (optional accessory) for your
transceiver from the CAT jack of Station Master to the computer control port of your radio.
2. Connect an RCA cable (supplied) between the PTTIN jack on Station Master and the PTT output of your
transceiver. Refer to the Operator's Manual for your transceiver for the proper connection.
3. If your transceiver does not have an RCA connector for PTT output, it will be necessary to build the
proper adapter. PTT output is on the REMOTE DIN for Kenwood, the Band Data jack for Yaesu, and
ACC2 (DIN 7) for Icom.
4. IMPORTANT: This connection is required for proper operation of Station Master with VOX.
5. If your transceiver has an INHIBIT input (Yaesu often labels INHIBIT "LINEAR" on the BAND DATA jack),
connect inhibit input of your transceiver to the INHIBIT output jack of SM.
IMPORTANT: Connecting INHIBIT is best way to prevent hot switching.
