                                SR600 RECEIVER
                             OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS




These operating instructions are intended to provide the user with sufficient information to
install and operate the unit correctly.

The Wood and Douglas SR600 UHF synthesized receiver is intended to fulfil the numerous
OEM applications by virtue of its highly flexible synthesized design approach, miniature
size and cost-effective performance.


INSTALLATION

NOTES:        Pin spacing on all connectors is 2.54mm (0.1")
              All dimensions in millimetres


CONNECTION

Connection to the SR600 receiver is via PL1, PL2 and PL3 which plug directly into the
user's own equipment. The location of these connectors is shown in Figure 1 and detailed

FREQUENCY PROGRAMMING

The SR600 has an internal memory which can store up to 128 RF channels (16 randomly
programmed and 112 sequentially programmed). The frequency and set-up information
is programmed into the unit by a synchronous PCM interface protocol.

The software supplied with the SR600 receiver is the STSRn00.exe program. The software
can be run on a PC with the serial port connected to PL3 of the SR600 receiver via a
suitable adaptor as shown in Figure 2. For the read-back function PL3 pin 10 of the
receiver must be connected to pin 2 of the PC serial port via a buffer circuit. A 1k pull-up
resistor to +5V must also be provided as shown.




                             Figure 2 Programming adaptor


RUNNING THE SOFTWARE

1.     Connect SR600 to a suitable supply and to the PC using the programming adaptor.

2.     Insert the STSRn00PRG disk into drive A and type:

              A:STSRn00 <return>

3.     The user is then prompted to enter the serial port number of his PC which is used
       to communicate with the SR600 receiver. Enter 1 or 2.

4.     Next there is a prompt to select STn00 or SRn00. Enter 2 for the SR600

5.     Next is the prompt to select freq. range:   1 : ST100 (125 - 180MHz)
                                                   2 : ST/SR500 (400 - 650MHz)
                                                   3 : ST/SR800 (800 - 880MHz)

After the software has successfully loaded the main menu screen is displayed as shown in
Figure 3. The screen shows the default settings which are entered at factory set-up. These
default settings will be displayed whenever the STSRn00 software is run.

Please note that mouse operation is not supported with this program.


FREQUENCY STORAGE

The internal PIC processor allows for both random allocated frequencies and sequential
channels. The program displays the 16 (as channel 0/ to 15) random channels on the main
screen. If a sequential table is used then these are stored in channels 16 to 127. These
cannot be displayed or printed out.

To simplify the situation, the first 16 channels of the sequential table can be copied to the
random channel by pressing the F2 button.

The first 8 channels (0 to 7) can be selected using the serial interface or the parallel
interface, as described later.

NOTES:

1.       The reference (TXCO) frequency is not programmable.

2.       The readback function (F5) reads the current settings from the unit into the PC.

3.       Function F6 (program the unit) is only enabled after the read-back, (refer to Figure
         2). This function re-programs the unit connected.

4.       A value for each parameters has to be entered.

5.       Only channel 0 to 15 frequencies can be displayed by this software explicitly.

6.       Sequential channel table is displayed as start, step and stop frequencies.

Serial channel selection

The unit defaults to serial channel selection whenever the software is run. Selecting the F7
function key prompts the user to enter the new serial channel number which is then
displayed in ‘Serial channel selected’.


Parallel channel selection

To enable parallel channel selection mode press the F4 (Parallel channel mode) function
key, The screen then displays ‘parallel channel selected’.

Three inputs RB1, RB3 and RB3 applied via PL3 to pin 8, pin 9 and pin 10 respectively,
select the operating channel as shown in the following table.

        HIGH             HIGH              LOW                         1
        HIGH             HIGH              HIGH                        0

The logic levels are :      LOW < 0.8V
                            HIGH > 2V or floating

Programming random channels

Random channels between 0 and 15 can be entered using the Up 8 and Down 9 arrow keys
and then entering the required operating frequency. The entered value must be an integer
multiple of comparison frequency otherwise an ‘invalid’ message is displayed.

Programming sequential channels

To generate a new frequency table the following parameter values must be entered:

       - start frequency
       - the table step as a multiple of comparison frequency.

The maximum frequency is calculated from the start table frequency and the table step..
Therefore if the calculation exceeds the maximum frequency then this parameter will be
increased automatically.

When the frequency table has been generated the user then selects F6 to program the unit,
assuming the unit has been read before.

The function key F2 can be used to copy the contents of channel 16-31 to channel 0 - 15 to
ease sequential programming.




Programming from customer equipment

In the event of a customer wishing to program the SR600 receiver from his own equipment
then the following data sequence must be used allowing 5ms between the characters in the
data stream:

      1200 baud, RS232 levels, 1 start bit - 8 bit data - no parity - 1 stop bit

      40 (decimal 64) synchronising code
      7 bit channel 0 - 127 (bit 7 = 0)
      95 (decimal 149) confirmation byte


RANGE INFORMATION

The following table gives an indication of the typical ranges to be expected between a
transmitter and receiver that have simple end-fed dipole antennas.

The following assumptions have been made in the calculations:

      line-of-sight between antennas
      0dB gain for the transmitter and receiver antennas
      0dB loss for connectors and cables between the antenna and the radio connector
      20dB fade and environmental margin
      -100dBm received signal strength, allowing for digital and analogue signals
