Setting up the TEAM RoadCOM
1) Installation of a CB antenna
The antenna is one of the most important parts of the equipment. The type of antenna and its location has a great effect on the range of operation. Please consider the following criteria for selecting the best location and installation of your antenna:
> Make sure that the antenna is designed for radio operation on 27 MHz. > The location of the antenna should be as high as possible without any obstacles nearby. > The aerial cable should not be damaged and the plugs should be properly connected. > Make sure that the antenna cable is not bent too strong. > The bigger the mechanical size of the antenna, the higher the range of operation.
When you install a mobile antenna please note the following advice: > The antenna should be fixed in the centre of a bigger part of the coachwork.
> The mobile antenna coil should have the closest possible contact with a conducting metallic
surface of the bodywork of the car.
There are also some other possibilities to fix the antenna onto the car without the necessity to drill a hole into the bodywork of your car, for example mounting the antenna onto the gut­ter, mounting the antenna onto a holder on the cover of the boot or using an antenna with a magnetic foot or using a windscreen antenna. For base-station operation we recommend a stationary antenna on the roof, for example the TEAM ECO 050 or ECO 200.
> Please don't mount the CB antenna nearby a radio or TV antenna to prevent interference
of radio or TV reception.
> Keep an eye on power lines running along nearby when mounting the antenna on the roof.
" DANGER " > The base-station antenna has to be connected via a lightning arrester. > All connected cables including the antenna cable must not exceed a length of 3 m.
2) Aerial Connection
Before pressing the transmit key, a suitable aerial must be connected. The PL259 plug of the aerial cable ( coax ) is connected to the SO239 socket ( 21 ) on the rear panel. Make sure, that all plugs are firmly tightened and properly soldered. Unsatisfactory connections can dam­age the radio and will reduce the range of operation. The antenna should be matched with the radio, otherwise a part of the transmit power will be reflected at the antenna and will not be radiated. This causes also a drop in the range of oper­ation. The matching can be carried out by a length adjustment of the antenna radial for a min­imal SWR ratio which can be measured by a SWR meter ( e. g. TEAM SWR 1180P ). After the measurement the SWR meter should be removed from the antenna line.
3) Installation in the car
When you want to fix the unit in your car, you can either fasten it with the help of the includ­ed mounting bracket below the dashboard, or insert it into a car radio slot by using the includ­ed inserting frame. Always mount the transceiver where the switches are easily accessible. Other important points of view for the correct mounting position are:
Operation of the TEAM RoadCOM
1) Switching on [ Vol / Off ]
Before switching the unit set the squelch control ( 8 ) [ SQ / Asq ] to the counterclockwise stop but without activating the internal switch. The device is switched on by turning the vol­ume control ( 7 ) [ Vol / Off ] clockwise to the centre position. The symbols are shown at the LC display ( 6 ) and the LCD backlight is illuminated. When being switched on after a disrup­tion of the supply source the unit works on channel number 9 in FM mode and the LCD back­light is illuminated in orange or blue. Adjust the receiver sound with the volume control to the desired level. All settings, which are made during operation of the transceiver, remain memorised after the unit is switched off, as long as the power supply is not disrupted.
2) Squelch [ SQ / Asq ]
The strong background noise, which occurs always on free channels, can be suppressed by the squelch function. By turning the squelch control ( 8 ) [ SQ / Asq ] slowly clockwise you will find a point where the noise disappears. The squelch control should only be turned up far enough to stop the background noise on an unused channel. Turning the control further clock­wise will increasingly suppress stronger interfering signals as well as weak stations. The automatic squelch [ Asq ] can be activated by turning the squelch control counterclock­wise until the control clicks. In this position the normal squelch function is switched off and the squelch threshold is set to default.
3) Confirmation tones
In reception mode all entries made by the keys, except the VOX function On/Off switch ( 13 ), the PTT key ( 4 ) [ PTT ] and the call tone key ( 5 ) [ SIGNAL ] will be confirmed with a short receipt tone. If you want to switch off the tones, press the channel scanning key ( 15 ) [ Scan ] for about 2 to 3 seconds, until a second, short receipt tone comes from the speaker. Now, the unit will be silent, if any keys are pressed.
In the same way, the receipt tones can be reactivated.
4) Channel selection [ S ] [ T ] All channels can be selected by pushing the channel selector keys ( 2 ) [ S ] and ( 3 ) [ T ] at the microphone, or by turning the rotary channel selector ( 9 ) [ Channel ] on the front panel to the desired channel. The channel will be displayed on the LCD ( 6 ) with big digits and the frequency with small digits. No channel selection is possible while the radio is in TX mode. The channels step in a ring like system. That means you go from the highest channel num­ber to channel 1 and vice versa. For communication with a partner CB station, both trans­ceivers must be adjusted to the same channel and the same modulation type.
5) Audio reproduction sound selection [ Hi / Lo ] The RoadCOM is equipped with an audio reproduction sound toggle key ( 18 ) [ Hi / Lo ]. When being switched on after a disruption of the supply source the receiving sound is set to mellow, which is indicated in the LCD by the symbol "LO". By pushing the audio reproduction sound key ( 18 ) [ Hi / Lo ] the receiving tone is changing to a bright sound in the loudspeak­er. This is indicated in the LCD window by the symbol "HI". By pushing the sound key again, the receiving tone is changed back to mellow, indicated by the symbol "LO".
ENGLISHENGLISH
9) Transmitting
To transmit depress and hold the key ( 4 ) [ PTT ] on the microphone ( 1 ). ). At the LCD the symbol "TX" appears, and the bar meter at the bottom of the display shows the relative trans­mit signal strength. The sensitivity of the microphone ( 1 ) has been set to give good results speaking normally at a distance of 2 - 4 inches. Speaking too loudly will cause distortions and make the signal difficult to understand. While the set is in the transmit mode there is no key entry possible and the receiver is muted. On completion of the transmission release the PTT key ( 4 ) and the set will revert to receiving mode.
10) Call tone
If you press the transmit key ( 4 ) [ PTT ] and the call key ( 5 ) [ SIGNAL ] at the same time on the microphone ( 1 ), a call tone will be transmitted and can be heard only by the partner station, provided it is switched on the same channel and the same modulation type.
11) Channel memory keys [ 1 - 4 ]
The RoadCOM can store up to 4 frequently used channels and their modulations. The default settings of the memories 1 - 4 are the channels 1, 9, 19 and 40 in FM mode. These memo­ries can be overwritten with other channel numbers and modulation types. In case of data loss the default settings will be stored in the memories again. If you want to save a new channel you have to select it first with the channel selector switch ( 9 ) [ Channel ] or the channel selector keys ( 2 ) [ S ] and ( 3 ) [ T ]. Then adjust the de­sired modulation type. Then depress one of the memory keys ( 11 ) [ 1 - 4 ] for about 3 to 4 seconds until a second receipt tone and a short flashing of the channel number and the chan­nel frequency indicate the overwriting of the new channel number and modulation type into the corresponding memory. If you want to recall a memorised channel and the corresponding modulation type you have to depress briefly one of the memory keys ( 11 ) [ 1 - 4 ]. On the left side of the display the actual memory number is displayed behind a "M" in case of data storage or recall. The memo­ry number indication disappears by selecting a new channel.
12) Last channel recall [ LCR ]
By a brief depressing on the key ( 17 ) [ LCR ] the transceiver will return to that channel and that modulation type, to which it was adjusted, when the PTT key was pressed the last time. The actual channel and the actual modulation type will be stored temporarily in a register. If you press on the key ( 17 ) [ LCR ] once again, the unit will skip back to the previously selec­ted channel and modulation type stored in the register, provided, that you did not change the channel and/or the modulation type in the meantime.
13) Priority Channel 9 / 19 [ CH9 ]
The version “8000uk” is equipped with the priority channels 9 and 19. Priority channel 9 is selec­ted by pressing the key ( 20 ) [ CH9 ] once. To set priority channel 19, press the key ( 20 ) [ CH9 ] twice. When a priority channel is set, the channel and the frequency will blink in the display and all function keys including the rotary channel selector are disabled. Only transmission and acti­vation of the VOX function are possible. To return to the previous channel, press the key ( 20 ) [ CH9 ] once, if priority channel 19 has been selected, or twice, if priority channel 19 has been set. Once returned to regular mode, all functions will be enabled again. All other versions are only equipped with the priority channel 9.
( 3 ) and the rotary channel selector ( 9 ). Thus it is also impossible to stop most activated functions. Only transmission is possible. The function remains even active if the unit is swit­ched off in the meantime, provided that the supply voltage remains connected. To deactivate the key lock function depress the key ( 19 ) [ Dual Watch / ] once again and hold it for a short period, until you will hear 2 seconds later a second short receipt tone which indicates that the key lock function is deactivated now. At the same time the key symbol " " disappears from the display. Now the keys are released again.
17) VOX function
The VOX function is a voice activated control of the transmitter. That means talking into the microphone will make the transceiver turn automatically to transmit mode. Thus keeping the PTT key on the microphone depressed during sending out a message becomes unnecessa­ry. To prevent an unwanted transmission the VOX circuit in the RoadCOM is coupled with the squelch circuit of the receiver. This has the effect, that the voice activated switching on of the transmitter by sound signals from the microphone can only take place, when the squelch is closed at the same time. Therefore make sure that the squelch is closed on free channels before you activate the VOX function. this function. To activate the VOX function depress the button of the VOX function On/Off switch ( 13 ) on the left side of the front panel until it latches. If now the actual channel is free and the squelch is closed, the red standby LED of the VOX function ( 14 ) [ VOX ] lights up. This indicates that the unit is ready for radio operation with the VOX function now. If you speak loud enough into the microphone, the unit will switch itself automatically to transmit mode, which will be indicated by the symbol "TX" on the LCD. The LED ( 14 ) [ VOX ] remains alight also in transmit mode. During your message it may occur, that the actual loudness of your voice falls below the volume level, which is necessary for the VOX function to make the unit switch to transmit mode. If the duration of those periods of low speech level remains below a cer­tain time, which is called the VOX delay time, the unit will stay in transmit mode. If the duration of those periods exceeds the VOX delay time, the unit returns to the receive mode. In this moment the LED ( 14 ) [ VOX ] switches itself briefly off and on again. If the squelch is open for some reasons, the LED ( 14 ) [ VOX ] will be dark, even with activated VOX function. One reason for an open squelch could be that there is a station on the channel, for example the partner station. Another reason could be that the noise level has increased so that the squelch remains open also on a free channel. In this case the unit will not switch itself to transmit mode by talking into the microphone, no matter how loud you speak. The unit can be switched to transmit mode by the help of the transmit key on the micropho­ne at every time, also with active VOX function. To deactivate the VOX function depress the button of the VOX function On/Off switch ( 13 ) until it is released.
18) External speaker jack
The RoadCOM is equipped with a 3.5 mm jack socket ( 23 ) at the rear panel to connect an exter­nal speaker of 4 - 8 ohm impedance. At 4 ohms the speaker load can be 4 watts ( e.g. TEAM TS-500 ). When the external speaker is connected, the internal speaker will be switched off.
19) Signal meter internal/external
The bar meter in the LCD window shows in reception mode the signal strength of a received sig­nal ( S value ), and in transmit mode the signal strength of the transmit signal. There is also a 2.5 mm jack socket ( 24 ) at the rear panel of the RoadCOM to connect an external S-meter with a
2.5 mm plug ( e. g. TEAM SM 930 ). It can show the S values more exactly. Please note that the external S-meter shows only the relative field strength of the incoming signal.
