5. 12RII Radio Systems
The 12RII radio supports 3 major types of FM voice radio systems or applications. AAR Remote Control (RC), Locomotive
Clean Cab (LC) and Serial Remote (SR). All have similarities in basic radio operation. The major difference between the RC
and LC applications is the type of user interface. The RC uses the AAR standard interface for remote control radios. This
interface is defined in section 12-10 of the AAR C&S Manual. The LC radio has a built in control panel on the front of the
radio. Interfaces to the LC radio are defined in section 12-2 of the AAR C&S Manual. The SR radio system is identical to the
standard LC radio except that the front panel is installed in a remote mounted control head.
Note 1: This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the condition that this device does not
cause harmful interference.
Note 2: Changes or modifications to this device not expressly authorized by the manufacture could void the user’s authority to
operate the equipment.
Note 3: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of
the FCC rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential
installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in
accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that
interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television
reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference
by one or more of the following measures:
- Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

5.1. AAR Remote Radio System
5.1.1. General Description
The 12RII-RC radio is compatible with the current 12R-RC radio in all its existing AAR Remote Applications. Refer to the
block diagram in the following section. In the AAR Remote application the primary interface for controls and audio signals is
with an external AAR compatible Control Head or Control Panel. Optionally an AAR handset can be connected to the rear of
the radio at J2. Antenna connection is provided through J1.
The 12RII-RC radio will mount onto the standard 12MT-1 AAR mounting adaptor. The radio will get locked into the 12MT-1
adaptor tray and they are installed as a unit onto a standard AAR Mounting Base such as the 1MB-1. The Mounting base
provides terminal blocks that allow the train wiring from the control panel and battery to be interfaced into a standard cable
supplied with the 1MB-1. This cable mates to J5 on the 12RII radio and provides power and control interface.

5.1.3. Basic Operation
The AAR Remote Radio is capable of performing all standard radio functions associated with transmitting and receiving radio
signals. The operator selects channels 1-12 from a channel selector. The channel selector drives 5 parallel channel lines to the
appropriate logic levels to cause the radio to go to the desired channel. A PTT (Push-To-Talk) signal line provides radio TX
control request from the operator. Other input control lines that may be applicable and associated with handset cradle or hangup functions are Mute, Quiet Line Disable, and Channel Revert. Additionally, certain customer applications require outputs that
provide indications of radio status such as Standby, Busy or TX.
The audio interfaces available at the J5 connector are microphone transmit audio, 10 watts speaker audio and a low level
receive audio signal. All audio levels are fixed.
The radio handset connector provides interface to a standard AAR handset. The handset interface provides for a PTT transmit
control signal, microphone audio, and receive audio.
The radio receives power from the locomotive or car battery. Battery input voltages are 74VDC for freight and locomotive
applications, and 37VDC in some light rail applications. A 13V battery input is also an option which is to be used for .
The radio typically supplies an output voltage of 13VDC to power the remote control head.
A connector is provided on the radio to interface to a standard personal computer (PC). This is a standard RS-232 interface
used to upload and download radio configuration files, radio status or diagnostics, and radio firmware. These functions are
supported through a special application program “12RIISETUP” program which is loaded on the PC.

5.2. Clean Cab Rad io systems
5.2.1. General Description
The 12RII-LC radio is compatible with the current 12R-LC radio in all its existing clean cab Applications. Refer to the block
diagram in the following section. In the clean cab application the primary interface for controls and audio signals is a front
panel located on the front of the radio. The radio also supports the standard Handset connector and program connector.
Antenna connection is provided through J1.
The 12RII-LC radio mounts onto the standard 17MT-1 AAR mounting Tray. The Mounting tray is typically located in an
enclosure similar to one specified in the AAR C&S manual in section 12-2. Power to the radio is provided through connector
J4. Typical locomotive battery voltage is 74VDC. Some transit light rail cab cars may provide 37VDC as the primary radio
voltage.

signaling. Audio interfaces on the front panel include a front panel microphone, which is activated with the front panel PTT
button, and a radio speaker.
Optionally, the radio may have an accessory connector (J6) that is used for external controls and audio interfaces or an
interface to a serial control head (J8). J8 provides the necessary serial, audio and control lines necessary to support a front
panel assembly that is packaged in a Remote Control Head.
J6 provides a second handset or microphone input, a second speaker output, and some I/O lines that can provide control inputs
or indication output signals depending on the customer application. As inputs these control lines can be programmed to provide
functions associated with handset cradle or hang-up functions such as Mute, Quiet Line Disable, and Channel Revert.
Additionally, certain customer applications require outputs that provide indications of radio status such as Standby, Busy or
TX.
The radio can support only the Accessory J6 connector or the Optional second control head on J8, not both at the same time
without compromised performance. Audio signals are shared between the two options. However it is not likely that both
options would ever be required in a given application. The radio may have both connectors installed, but only one interface is
likely to be active at a time. This will allow for a “standard” radio to be installed in either of the identified optional
installation configurations.
