COMPLEX REPEATER OPERATION
The MT-4E modules may be confi gured to operate in complex repeater confi gurations of up to four sets
of transceivers using the CI-RC-4M-G2 multiple link controller.
The receiver and transmitter modules connect to the CI-RC-4M-G2 repeater controller through RJ45
cables connected to the front panel of the transmitter and receiver modules. The CI-RC-4M-G2
repeater controller is a 1RU height controller that is installed separately from the radio subrack as
shown in Figure 3-2.
Figure 3-2: MT-4E Repeater System shown with four pairs of transceivers
The CI-RC-4M-G2 repeater controller is software programmable to allow fl exible programming options
for the radio system. The CI-RC-4M-G2 controller provides the following features:
• interconnection of up to four receiver and four transmitter modules in any confi guration (repeater,
repeater with links, cross-band systems, etc.).
• multiple CTCSS tones and NACs may be selected to operate each connection between receivers
and transmitters (up to seven CTCSS/NAC for each link).
• DTMF control of receiver to transmitter links.
• setting of receiver priorities.
• transmitter channel switching based on received CTCSS or NAC.
• auxiliary E&M connection.
• two independent general purpose outputs that can be controlled by NAC, CTCSS or DTMF (open
collector 750 mA / 30 Vdc max).
