Major BOS 4a
Major BOS 4a is a µC-controlled desktop controller unit for 2-way radio systems controlling up to four radios. Different operating parameters can either be factory preset or programmed during installation.
System / Connectivity
The Major BOS 4a is powered by an external +12V-DC power supply. Up to four channels (radio sets, PA systems -/intercom etc.) can be connected, also an external handset/headset, up to two external monitoring-interfaces (TBBox4), an external signal source, a tape recorder and a AF-RX-amplifier for each channel. Furthermore there is a RS232-connection, to which a terminal can be connected, or a PC for external control. There is a squelch input for each radio and also a PTT output, a busy-line, an AF-input and AF-output. As the TX-AF-outputs are only active while transmitting, several Major BOS 4a´s can be connected in parallel without any problems.
For detailed pinout see section Sockets Pin Layout Connection.

).
TX-LED
For each of the four channels there also is a separate TX LED, which lights up when the corresponding transmitter is activated. The transmitter is activated by pushing the PTT button while talking or by transmitting a call. Flashing of the TX LED means that another Major BOS 4a is using this channel. Also see section Major BOS 4a´s in parallel
circuit.
Channel Selection LED
The channel selection LED (separate for each channel) lights up permanently when the corresponding channel is selected and activated. Flashing of the channel selection LED means that this channel has already been selected by another Major BOS 4a. Also see
section Major BOS 4a´s in parallel circuit.
Loudspeaker / Volume LED Display
The loudspeaker / volume display (separate for each channel) is a row of LEDs and indi­cates the volume setting. If the loudspeaker-AF for the corresponding channel is turned off the display turns dark.

Calling a single Radio Subscriber
Channel Selection
To activate one of the four channels push the corresponding selection button. To deactivate a channel again push the corresponding selection button once more. Depending on the configuration of the EEPROM-Register 030 in Bit 1 you can either select several channels simultaneously or only one channel at a time.
Register 030 Number of selectable channels
Bit 1: 0 = several channels simultaneously (cumulative) 1 = only one channel at a time selected
When channels are activated the channel selection LED lights up. If the channel has already been selected by a different Major BOS 4a the device can be programmed so that the corresponding channel selection LED flashes. Also see section Parallel circuit of several Major BOS 4a´s. !!) In the EEPROM-Register 024 you can preselect which of the channels 1..4 (Bit 0..3) is automatically selected after turning on the radio installation.
Register 024 selected channels after turning on
Bit 0: Channel 1 No / Yes (0/1)
Bit 1: Channel 2 No / Yes (o/1)
Bit 2: Channel 3 No / Yes (0/1)
Bit 3: Channel 4 No / Yes /0/1)
It is possible to configure the EEPROM-Register 027 so that the selected channels are automatically saved in the EEPROM-Register 024 when the radio installation is turned off.
Register 027 Save the selected channels No / Yes (00/01)
Communicating with the Radio Subscriber
There are three different ways of communication with a calling radio subscriber:
a) By pushing one of the red PTT buttons the transmitter of the corresponding channel is activated on (the corresponding sending status LED lights up) and you can talk to the caller through the gooseneck microphone. (It is also possible to connect an external switch contact instead of a PTT button. See section Opto-Coupler input.) If another controlling device is already transmitting on a channel the Major BOS 4a can be programmed so that the corresponding sending status LED flashes and optionally the PTT button is blocked. Also see section Parallel circuit of several Major BOS 4a´s. After depressing the PTT button the caller can be heard on the loudspeaker. The receiver volume of the corresponding channel is adjustable, see section Loudspeaker (Volume setting).

b) By picking up the handset and pushing the PTT button on the inside of the handset. By doing so the transmitter of the selected channel is activated (TX LED lights up) and you can talk with the caller through the microphone of the handset. If another controlling device is already transmitting on a channel the Major BOS 4a can be programmed so that the corresponding TX LED flashes and optionally the PTT button is blocked. Also see section Parellel circuit of several Major
BOS 4a´s.
Depending on the configuration you can hear the caller constantly on the handset or only after deactivating the PTT button, see section Loudspeaker. The call is ended by replacing the handset.
The volume of the earpiece and the microphone are each adjustable by a potentiometer. The potentionmeter is situated near the earpiece of the handset and is easily accessible from the outside, using a screw-driver through a small opening on the inside of the handset.
c) By connecting a compatible handset/headset and pressing the corresponding PTT button PTT2 (e.g. a foot switch). By doing this the transmitter of the selected radio channel is also turned on (TX LED lights up) and you can talk with the caller through the microphone of the handset/headset. (It is also possible to connect another external switch contact. See section Opto-Coupler input.) If another controlling device is already transmitting on a radio channel the Major BOS 4a can be programmed so that the corresponding TX LED blinks and optionally the PTT button is blocked. Also see section Parallel circuit of several
Major BOS 4a´s.
Depending on the configuration you can hear the caller constantly on the handset or only after depressing the PTT button, see section Loudspeaker. After deactivating the PTT button you can also hear the caller on the loudspeaker. The volume of the corresponding channel is adjustable, see section Loudspeaker
(volume setting).

RX-AF-Ausgänge
The volume controlled receiver-AF can be tapped individually for each radio channel on the Major BOS 4a. The outputs can be used e.g. for connecting external AF-amplifier (per radio channel).
The receiver-AF (for the AF-RX-outputs) of individual radio channels can be muted either
- manually by pressing the loudspeaker buttons or
- automatically by activating the corresponding busy lines (see section Parallel circuit of several Major BOS 4a´s) or
- automatically by transmitting on the active or a different radio channel
There is one Muting-Output per radio channel with which the connected AF-RX amplifier can be muted when there is no receiver signal (busy??/squelch) (output switches to GND). See section Sockets Pinout.
a) In the EEPROM-Register 020 a configuration for the radio channels 1..4 (Bit 0..3) can be made so that the AF-RX-Output is muted while transmitting on the own radio channel.

Encoder
The Major BOS 4a has an integrated encoder for ID 1 and ID 2. The calls for each
channel are transmitted directly with the corresponding buttons on the keyboard (I or II). The ID is transmitted as long as the corresponding button is being pressed. .
Externel Signaling Device
An external signaling device can be connected to the Major BOS 4a. The sensitivity of the potential-free inputs can be adjusted with the potentiometer P11. By activating the corresponding PTT button input (PTT3)the external signal is transmitted via the selected radio channel.(An additional external switch contact can be connected as PTT button. See section Opto-coupler input.)
Transmitter Control
The transmitters of the selected radio channels are activated with one of the PTT buttons (e.g. handset or headset) and stay activated as long as the PTT button is being pressed. During transmitting the corresponding transmitters are automatically activated. It is always possible to transmit on non-activated radio channels by using the red PTT buttons on the control panel.
If another controlling device is already transmitting on a channel the Major BOS 4a can be programmed so that the corresponding sending status LED flashes and optionally the PTT button is blocked. Also see section Parallel circuit of several Major BOS 4a´s.
The transmitter control can be switched to ground or to +12V (or an external reference voltage U
). The logic of the PTT button outputs can be configured separately for each
ref
radio with the jumpers J6 to J9. To change the reference voltage (+12V or U jumper J5. By using the Open-collector outputs it is easily possible to connect several Major BOS 4a´s in parallel circuit.
For jumper settings see Chart: Jumper and Potentiometer.
AF-Connection
The audio-frequency-connection is not integrated in the Major BOS 4a anymore. But by connecting the external headset-adapter the headset can be used as a combined communicating device for telephone and radio. The headset is switched to the telephone by an opto-coupler input, which has to be programmed accordingly (see section Opto-Coupler input).

Microphone Selection
For each of the 3 PTT inputs it is possible to program the corresponding microphone
individually in register 052. Additionally there are two automatic possibilities to detect the headset. Either the PTT2 input can be programmed as headset detection (programming register 04C) or the Major BOS 4a can detect if a headset is connected by measuring the headset supply voltage (programming register 051/052). The threshold level in register 051 has to be set so that the measured supply voltage (at ST10 between Pin 2 and 5) without headset is higher and with headset is lower than the threshold level. If the PTT2 input is used as headset detection the Major BOS 4a detects the headset when the input is activated (bridge to ground (GND)). If the Major BOS 4a has detected a headset then all buttons programmed as SH/HS/PTT use the headset microphone. Otherwise they use the gooseneck microphone.
Channnel Selection (additionally)
In register 04E you can program whether the loudspeaker is turned on simultaneously when activating the radio circuit. In register 04F you can program whether the loudspeaker is turned off simultaneously when deactivating the radio circuit.

Opto-Coupler Input
The Major BOS 4a has an opto-coupler input at connector ST10. This opto-coupler input can be programmed for different functions.
a) If this register is encoded to value ´00´, the opto-coupler input switches the handset/
headset to the audio-frequency-connection when activated (standard function, see section Audio-Frequency-Connection).
b) The opto-coupler input can also be used to emulate certain key functions of the switch panel or to make switching functions for special applications possible.
To do this the assignment to the radio channels is coded at the 1st digit (High-Nibble) in the EEPROM-register 047. At the 2nd digit (Low Nibble) the key function resp. the special function which is to be emulated, is encoded:
Register 047 Opto-coupler input
Special function 00 = control the telephone relais
10 = microphone switching for PTT2 PTT2 transmits by gooseneck microphone, when opto­ coupler is turned on 20 = microphone switching for PTT2 PTT2 transmits by gosseneck microphone when opto-coupler is turned off
1st digit Assignment to
0 = all activated radio channels
1..4 = radio channel 1..4
2nd digit emulated key / special function
0 = (-no function -) 1 = radio channel (selction) 2 = volume higher 3 = volume lower 4 = loudspeaker ON / OFF 5 = call 2 6 = call 1 7 = transmit (gooseneck microphone) 8 = transmit (microphone of handset/headset) 9 = transmit (external encoder) A = special functions button B = transmit (SH or HS-micro), PTT2 selects micro C = transmit (SH or HS-micro), switching by automatic headset detection
To activate the opto-coupler input direct current (3V < U < 15V) is necessary. For higher switching voltages an additional external dropping resistor is necessary (internal dropping resistor = 1kOhm).

Major BOS 4a's in Parallel Circuit
Several Major BOS 4a´s can be interconnected without any problems as the AF-outputs are only activated during transmitting and the AF-outputs can be switched to high­impedance by replugging of jumper J1 to J2. For this purpose all connections with the individual radio channels (TX-AF, RX-AF, squelch and transmitter PTT) only have to be connected in parallel circuit (bus- or hub wiring).
Here the busy lines of the radio channels, which can only be connected with the Major BOS 4a´s , have a special function.
Activating the Busy Lines
Each Major BOS 4a, which is connected to the corresponding busy line, can signalize to other Major BOS 4a´s in paralle circuit, if a radio channel has already been selected and/or if a radio channel is already used for transmitting.
a) In the EEPROM-register 02B it is possible to make a configuration for the radio channels 1..4 (Bit 0..3) so that the corresponding busy line is activated if selected.
Register 02B Activating busy line when channel is selected
Bit 0: Radio channel 1 NO / YES (0/1) Bit 1: Radio channel 2 NO / YES (0/1) Bit 2: Radio channel 3 NO / YES (0/1) Bit 3: Radio channel 4 NO / YES (0/1)
b) In the EEPROM-register 02C it is possible to make a configuration for the radio channels 1..4 (Bit 0..3) so that the corresponding busy line is activated when transmitting (on this channel).
Register 02C Activating busy line when transmitting on
Bit 0: Radio channel 1 NO / YES (0/1) Bit 1: Radio channel 2 NO / YES (0/1) Bit 2: Radio channel 3 NO / YES (0/1) Bit 3: Radio channel 4 NO / YES (0/1)

Scanning of the Busy Lines
Each Major BOS 4a, which is connected to the corresponding busy line, detects an activated busy line and reports this optically to the user as a blinking channel selection LED or as a blinking TX LED .
This optical display can be configurated in the EEPROM-register 02D for the radio channels 1..4 (Bit 0..3).

You can also configure how the Major BOS 4a treats busy radio channels: e.g. the
transmitter PTT can be disabled and/or the receiver-AF for the loudspeaker (and the RX- AF output) can be muted:
a) In the EEPROM-register 02E it is possible to make a configuration for the radio channels 1..4 (Bit 0..3)so that the PTT is disabled when the radio channel is busy.

Monitoring-Interface TBBox4 (Accessories)
The optional monitoring-interface TBBox4 can be looped in to max. 4 radio channels in order to connect a multi-track voice recorder and/or to interpret or transmit signaling on the radio channels with the help of a PC if the TBBox4 is equipped with the corresponding UGA-modules (option)(using a modem). For this purpose the external PC is connected by the integrated RS232-interface of the TBBox4.
Together with the Major BOS 4a certain calls like tone sequences or single tones (e.g. call 1, call 2), which are preprogrammed in the TBBox4, can be evaluated. The evaluation status is transmitted to the Major BOS 4a by the I²C-Bus (connector ST14).
If the Major BOS 4a is used in bigger systems together with Major BOS 8 units up to eight radio channels and therefore up to two TBBox4 units can be attached. In this case, if the 4 radio channels of the Major BOS 4a are to be connected on two separate TBBox4 units, their control inputs have to be connected to the I²C-Bus­concentrator I2C-Con. In this case the I²C-Bus-adresses of the TBBox4 units have to be coded differently (please ask for advice!). Also see manual Major BOS 8.
For programming the TBBox4 see manuals Monitoring-Interface TBBox4 and Universal­encoder/decoder-module UGA00.
Assigning Channels to the UGA-Modules
Each TBBox4 can be equipped with max. 4 UGA-modules, so that up to 8 UGA-modules are available for decoder functions when 2 TBBox4 units are connected.. The individual radio channel numbers (´01´...´04´) in the EEPROM-registers 031...038 can be assigned freely to these 8 UGA-modules. If no radio channel is to be assigned to a certain UGA-module set the radio channel number to value ‘00’.
Assigned radio channel number for
register 031 UGA(1)/TBBox4(1)
register 032 UGA(2)/TBBox4(1) register 033 UGA(3)/TBBox4(1) register 034 UGA(4)/TBBox4(1) register 035 UGA(1)/TBBox4(2) register 036 UGA(2)/TBBox4(2) register 037 UGA(3)/TBBox4(2) register 038 UGA(4)/TBBox4(2)
Ex factory the EEPROM-registers 031...034 are programmed in sequence with the radio channel numbers 01...04 and the EEPROM-registers 035...038 with the value ‘00’ (no radio channel assigned).

Decoder Functions
Each TBBox4 can be equipped with max 4 UGA-modules, so that up to 8 UGA-modules are available for decoder functions when 2 TBBox4 are connected.
Each UGA-module can be programmed so that when certain signalings (single tones, tone sequences) are decoded either one of the two switching outputs DEC1 or DEC2 briefly (e.g. 1 sec)switches to ground (GND). See manuals Monitoring-Interface TBBox4 and
Universal-encoder/decoder-module UGA00.
The status of the switching outputs DEC1 and DEC2 of all UGA-modules is transmitted to the Major BOS 4a and causes the loudspeaker-AF of the corresponding radio channels to be turned on(if it was turned off before):
a) If the switching output DEC2 is turned on because of the UGA-decoding, then the loudspeaker-AF of the corresponding radio channel is turned on permanently.
b) If the switching output DEC1 is turned on because of the UGA-decoding, then the loudspeaker-AF of the correspong radio channel is turned on for the duration T. The duration T can be programmed separately for the radio channels 1..4 in the EEPROM- registers 03D...040 in steps of seconds (Value coded as HEX-Number in seconds).
Register 03D Radio channel 1 Register 03E Radio channel 2 Register 03F Radio channel 3 Register 040 Radio channel 4
Ex factory the EEPROM-registers 03D...040 are programmed with the Hex-value ‘0A’ (10*1sec=10sec).
Tape Control (switching contact)
The switching contact for controling the tape (Start/Stop) can be configured separately for each of the two TBBox4 units.
In the EEPROM-registers 039 respectively 03A you can code which radio channels 1..4 (Bit 0..3) control the audio tape switching contact of the TBBox4(1) resp. TBBox4(2).
Register 039 Audio tape switching contact TBBox4(1) controlled by
Bit 0: Channel 1 NO/YES (0/1) Bit 1: Channel 2 NO/YES (0/1) Bit 2: Channel 3 NO/YES (0/1) Bit 3: Channel 4 NO/YES (0/1)

Tape Control (Switching Contact) (continued)
The tape control switching contacts are activated with each PTT or squelch/carrier detection of the corresponding radio channels. After discontinuation of these conditions they are deactivated automatically after the delay time T. The delay time T can be programmed separately for the tape control switching contacts of the TBBox4(1) resp. TBBox4(2) in the EEPROM-registers 03B resp. 03C in steps of 100ms.
Delay time T = N*100ms (enter as Hex-value!!!)
Register 03B Delay time for tape control switching contact TBBox4(1) Register 03C Delay time for tape control switching contact TBBox4(2)
Ex factory the EEPROM-registers 03B and 03C are programmed with the Hex-value „32” (50*100ms = 5sec).
The own tape control switching contact (ST5 / Pin2) is activated as long as one of the two TBBox4 switching contacts is activated.

Serviceprogramm
The Major BOS 4a has a RS-232-interface with the following specifications:
19200 Baud, 1 startbit, 8 databits, no parity, 1 stopbit
The connectors for the RS-232-interface (RXD, TXD, GND) are located on the 8-pole RJ45-plug ST15 inside. See section Sockets pin layout.
To use the service program, a simple terminal or a PC with terminal program has to be connected to this RS-232-interface. For this purpose the data format resp. the interface has to be set to the above mentioned specifications. If Windows is installed on your PC, you can configure the standard Windows terminal program (e.g. Hyperterminal) accordingly, choosing the option protocol = X on / X off. (Therfore you only have to connect the three pins RXD, TXD and GND.
If the terminal (or the PC) is connected correctly, you will have access to the service program and to a range of service commands for:
- programming mode EEPROM
- software reset
To start the service program just enter <return> or <$A2>, <return>. The following text will appear on the screen:
Online – Monitor PIC 16F877A Software ,MBOS4a`V 2.0 vom (Datum) ( C ) FunkTronic , 01-07
Rxxx Read EEPROM Register xxx Pxxx_yy Program yy in EEPROM Register xxx
X Reset
#
Please note: the character _ means <space> resp. <blank>.

Monitor Status
The service program may be locked after the device has been turned on (monitor status = ´00`). In this case the service program has to be started by entering <$A2><CR>(=Enter). Then the monitor menu ( see above) appears on the screen.
If the Major BOS 4a is to be programmed or controlled automatically by a PC or a control center computer it may be useful for the monitor function to be immediately available when turned on (monitor status = ´01`or ´02`).
The monitor status can be programmed in the EEPROM-register 026 as follows:
Register 026 Monitor status after turning on
00 = monitor function is turned off 01 = special control function (WED) is turned on 02 = monitor function is turned on
The monitor status (´00`,´01`or ´02`) can also be switched over while operating by entering <$A0><CR>, <$A1><CR> or <$A2><CR>.
Programming Mode EEPROM
To program an EEPROM-register address <xxx> with the content <yy> proceed as follows:
1) Start the service program (see section service program)
2) Enter <Rxxx>,<Return> on the terminal. => <>xxx: ww> appears on the screen.
3) Now change the desired value (Hex value!!!), so that the new register is set to <yy> (Hex value!!!).
4) Program the new register content <yy> (Hex value!!!) in the register address <xxx> by entering the following on the terminal: <Pxxx_yy>,<Return>(_=<Space>).
5) Check the new register content by means of the on-screen message: <>xxx: ww ==> yy >.
If instead of a valid address <xxx> the address <999> is entered, all registers are programmed with the ex factory preset values. A list of all the EEPROM- addresses can be found in the following section. Please note (1): Do not change any registers, which are not described in this manual or whose functions are unclear or unknwon to you.
Please note (2): Almost all adjustable values (e.g. times etc.) of the Major BOS 4a have to be programmed as HEX numbers. See section
EEPROM-addresses! A conversion chart for HEX numbers can be found in the attachment!

Please read the operating instructions carefully before installation and setup.
The relevant regulations must be complied to when working with 230V line voltage, two-wire­lines, four-wire-lines and ISDN-lines. It is also very important to comply to the regulations and safety instructions of working with radio installations.
Please comply to the following safety rules:
- All components may only be mounted and maintained when power is off.
- The modules may only be activated if they are built in a housing and are scoop-proof.
- Devices which are operated with external voltage - especially mains voltage ­ may only be opened when they have been disconnected from the voltage source or mains.
- All connecting cables of the electronic devices must be checked for damage regularly and must be exchanged if damaged.
- Absolutely comply to the regular inspections required by law according to VDE 0701 and 0702 for line-operated devices.
- Tools must not be used near or directly at concealed or visible power lines and conductor paths and also not at and in devices using external voltage – especially mains voltage - as long as the power supply voltage has not been turned off and all capacitors have been discharged. Electrolytic capacitors can be still charged for a long time after turning off.
- When using components, modules, devices or circuits and equipment the threshold values of voltage, current and power consumption specified in the technical data must absolutely be complied to. Exceeding these threshold values (even if only briefly) can lead to significant damage.
- The devices, components or circuits described in this manual are only adapted for the specified usage. If you are not sure about the purpose of the product, please ask your specialized dealer.
- The installation and setup have to be carried out by professional personnel.
