5.7.1 Debounce

Time

Selecting the secondary site and frequency may cause the TSAM control inputs to change several times
before the desired site and frequency are set, especially if the console uses a scrolling control. To avoid
extra tone control sequences being sent for each affected site and frequency, the TSAM waits for the
debounce time after seeing a site or frequency change. This give the operator and console equipment time
to settle on the final secondary site and frequency value selected.

The length of the debounce time is programmable from 0 to 32,767 msec. Times shorter than the control
tone sequence will not result in any faster operation, so setting the debounce time to less than the typical
tone sequence is of no value. The default value is 250 msec and is suitable for most applications. If the
frequency change function of the PMC tone sequence is not supported by the systems base stations, then
setting a longer debounce time is recommended. This reduces the chance of an unwanted base keyup as
the secondary site and frequency are selected.

Secondary Options:

To accept (DEFAULT) value: type <d> or <D>.

To accept CURRENT value: type <return>.

To change: type desired value then <return>.

Site/Freq change debounce time (msec) = (250) 250 : 250

For consoles with non-scrolled controls, this parameter can be set down to 100 or possibly 50
milliseconds.
