Tone Pulse Generator

Tone Generator

Introduction:

The TPG-5 Tone Generator incorporates the latest microcontroller technology and
offers a choice of four audio tones suitable for line level inputs of P.A. amplifiers:

Tone 1 - “Whooping” tone signal.

Tone 2 - Two tone signal.

Tone 3 - Greenwich Mean Time pips (GMT).

Tone 4 - Single tone signal.

No tone priority hierarchy exists with the TPG-5.
Tone signal output is activated by external contact closure to one of the four tone
inputs. If the external contact closure to any of the Tones 1 to 4 is momentary,
the activated tone will be present for approximately 6 seconds and then stop. If
the external contact closure to any of the tones 1 to 4 is latched (held closed), the
activated tone will be present until such time that the contact is opened plus an
additional period of up to 6 seconds.

A set of voltage-free S.P.C.O. contacts are provided to allow other external equipment
to be controlled during operation of the tone generator.

The TPG-5 is supplied in a metal case that can be wall, table or rack mounted. It is
powered by 240v AC mains and/or 24v DC supply.
