CHAPTER 1
Overview
The IP-223 Remote Adapter Panel provides a reliable means of remotely controlling two (2) audio devices. The adapter has
multiple modes allowing it to connect to both digital and analog consoles, and performs a variety of other tasks related to
putting radios on a digital network.
The IP-223 is interconnected to the distant remote control console(s) by means of any available WAN (Wide Area Network) or
LAN (Local Area Network) connection.
Operating Modes
The IP-223 is capable of operating each audio port in different modes:
Local Mode – The radio is connected directly to the IP-223 allowing for simple migration and local cont rol of the rad io.
Tone Mode – The IP-223, based on Ethernet traffic, generates the keytones required to control standard industry tone-
equipped radio circuits. This allows an existing tone decoder and radio to be connected. This mode also supports a parallel
analog console.

CHAPTER 2
Communications System Design
Designing an IP-223 system requires an understanding of the radio network and how the various radios and communication
equipment are connected.
The first step in designing an IP-223 system is to create a roadmap of the radio, console, and any other communication
equipment locations. This roadmap must include the following:
• Multicast addresses for each channel of TX (transmit) and RX (receive) communication.
• Port numbers for each channel of TX and RX communication.
• Base IP Addresses assigned to each console and IP-223 on the network.
Network Requirements
Bandwidth
Each VoIP channel requires 50kBit of bandwidth while active. Full-duplex conversation (audio in each direction) requires
100kBit of bandwidth.
NOTE: Most radio voice communications are half-duplex (only in one direction at any one time), thus requiring 50kbits.
Some radio systems transmit go-ahead beeps when it is clear to talk. In order for the console operator to hear the beeps, the
system must support full-duplex communication. Full-duplex bandwidth may only be required for the first few seconds of a
conversation, due to the brief nature of the go-ahead beeps at the beginning of the transmission.
When using a PIB, TDI, C-6200, or the NI-223 for a telephone connection, 100kBit is required since it is a constant, fullduplex conversation.
Multicast
In general, Telex systems require multicast to function. The network must be able to support the multicast traffic generated by
the system.
It is very common for networks to enable multicast after an IGMP (Internet Group Management Protocol) join message is sent
out, and then prune off branches after a period of time. Due to the intermittent usage patterns of two-way radios, such a system
can appear to work flawlessly for a period of time, then no longer work.
23
Communications System Design
NOTE: When using Cisco technology, IP PIM dense mode is generally recommended. Generally speaking, sparse-
dense-mode can also be implemented effectively. We recommend explicitly joining the multicast group wit h an
IP IGMP static-join X.X.X.X command. For more information on Cisco and IGMP, visit www.cisco.com
Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP)
IGMP can be used to control where multicast is allowed to propagate. When a console on the subnet is expected to be
continually operational, multicast must be active for that subnet at all times.
Network Performance
Networks should perform well under any loading conditions. The default audio delay is 120ms, plus any delay added by the
network. While delay alone does not cause issues, variable delay (jitter) does. Jitter in a network cannot exceed the
maximum packet buffer of any individual product buffer. Refer to the individual product manuals for these specifications. For
example, the IP-223 can handle approximately 600ms of network jitter.
NOTE: Losing more than 5% of the total packets transmitted compromises audio quality and system performance.
Optimally, packet loss should be less than 1%.
24
CHAPTER 3
Installation and Level Settings
Local/Radio Connections
NOTE: Connections to radios differ from connections for remote operation; therefore connections are discussed
separately.
Jumper Positions
An example of the jumper positions are shown in Figure 82. In the figure, jumper 14 (J14) is shown in posi tion A, jumper 3
(J3) is shown in position B, and jumper 23 (J23) has been placed on the center pin indicating the jumper is in the NULL
position.
FIGURE 82. Jumper Positions
To adjust the position of a jumper, do the following:
1. Remove power from the IP-223 unit.
CAUTION: Failure to remove power may cause damage to the IP-223.
2. Remove the six (6) screws from the case top.

Local/Radio Connections
TX Audio Connection
The IP-223 has a number of options when connecting to the radio. Different jumper settings are required for different
revisions of the PCB installed in the IP-223 unit, and are noted below. Set the jumper position listed for the line according to
the connection type shown below.
If the radio transmit audio output is balanced,
• connect to pins 13 and 25 of the DB25 connector.
If the transmit audio is single ended,
• use pin 25 of the DB25 connector.
NOTE: Shielded cable is recommended.

below.
• If the radio receiver audio output is balanced, connect to pins 12 and 24 of the DB25 connector.
• If the receiver audio is single ended, use pin 24 of the DB25 connector. The audio source must be after the
squelch circuit to prevent sending continuous noise to the remote console.
• If a high-impedance point in the receiver is used, a shielded cable is recommended.

COR (Carrier Operated Relay) I/O (Input/Output)
The COR I/O connection indicates that audio is being received from the radio. The COR connection is provided at DIG6, pin
20 of the DB25 connector.
PTT Connection
Connect the radio PTT circuit to the PTT relay contact terminals on the DB25 connector. Usually the common of the relay
contact switch is grounded and the normally open contact connects to the PTT input. An alternative method to ground the
common of the relay internal to the unit is to jumper R377 (line 1) and R381 (line 2) with a piece of wire soldered closed.
Monitor Connection
Connect the radio MON circuit to the MON relay contact terminals on the DB25 connector. Usually the common of each relay
contact switch is grounded and the normally open contact connects to the MON input. An alternative method to ground the
common of the relay internal to the unit is to jumper R376 (line 1) and R380 (line 2) with a piece of wire soldered closed.
R1 and R2 Relays
The IP-223 provides two (2) relay closures for controlling the frequency of the radio, or switching a remote ancillary device.
The F1 and F2 contacts can be connected through the DB25 connector. Usually the common of each relay contact switch is
grounded and the normally open contact connects to the radio frequency control terminals. Information on prog ram mi ng the
R1 and R2 relays is provided in the “Setup Information” chapter of this manual starting on page 33. An alternative method to
ground the common of the relay R1 internal to the unit is to jumper R375 (line 1) and R379 (line 2), and for relay R2 jumper
R374 (line 1) and R378 (line 2) with a piece of wire soldered closed.
28
Tone/Console Operation
Digital I/O
In addition to the two standard relay closures, seven (7) lines of digital I/O are also included. These lines are open-collector
transistor outputs. They can be programmed on a per line basis to generate any of 128 combinations. They pull down to ground
and can be jumper selected to pull up to either +5V or the power supply voltage (minimum +12V).
Jumpers J8 (line 1) and J30 (line 2) are used to select the pull up voltage. Jumper position A pulls up to +5V and jumper
position B pulls to the power supply value.
NOTE: Some radios provide a pull-up voltage. When this occurs, place the jumper into the null position. Information on
programming the digital I/O lines is provided in the “Setup Information” chapter of this manual starting on
page 33.
CTCSS (Continuous Tone Coded Squelch System) Connection
The IP-223 connection can be used for a recorder output or as a CTCSS output:
Recorder output - The analog audio is generated at the connection.
CTCSS output - Each function tone can be assigned a CTCSS number which corresponds to a CTCSS frequency. See
“CTCSS Tone Frequency Table” on page 131.
Tone/Console Operation
T one and Co nsole op eratio n require jumpers set to specific locations. The following section discusses the jumper settings. See
“Jumper Locations” on page 125.
2-/4-Wire Jumper Settings
2-Wire / 4-Wire Selection: Line 1 Line 2
2-Wire A position J33 and J34 J5 and J6
4-Wire B position J33 and J34 J5 and J6
The RX termination J14 (line 1) and J24 (line 2) should be placed in jumper position A on 4-wire systems for a single unit at
the end of a line. If multiple units are connected in parallel, only one (1) unit should have the RX termination jumper in the A
position. The RX termination jumper should be in the null position on the rest of the units.
For 2-wire operation:
• PCB 750743 or PCB 750630 revision C and higher - Set J14 or J24 to the NULL position.
TX Side Settings
PCB 750743 or PCB 750630 revision C and higher
T wo (2) jumpers on the transmit pair allow a degree of control over the output impedance. The jumper positions for each line,
depending on how many consoles are placed in parallel, are shown below.
NOTE: PCB 750630 revision A does not have these jumpers.

Local PTT I/O
The Local PTT I/O is used to generate TX Ethernet traffic on a local keyed system as opposed to the 2175Hz detection on a
tone keyed system. The input is at DIG5; pin 23 of the DB25 connector. The TX condition is caused by an active low.
Cross Mute I/O
Cross mute information to local consoles is provided at DIG0, pin 8 of the DB25 connector.
Supervisory I/O
Supervisory information to and from consoles is provided at DIG1, pin 21 of the DB25 connector. The supervisory I/O is both
an input and an output.
Supervisory input and output in console, tone or local mode behaves as follows:
Console Mode – Input - An Ethernet packet supervisor is sent on detection.
Output - When an Ethernet packet is received. The line level is set.
While under supervisory control, TX traffic from the Ethernet to the console is muted. The console’ s
audio to the Ethernet is muted. Handset PTT and the IC button are disabled.
Tone Mode – Input - An Ethernet packet supervisor is sent on detection.
Output - When an Ethernet packet is received, the line level is set.
When an Ethernet packet is received, the line level is set.
Local Mode - Input- No affect on I/O.
Output - No affect, when Ethernet packet is received.
While under control, manual PTT and the IC button are disabled.
NOTE: Information on programming the supervisory I/O is provided in the “Setup Information” chapter of this manual
starting on page 33..
Level Adjustments
Once the IP-223 unit is connected to the system, the level potentiometers can be set. Access to test and adjustment points on
newer versions of the IP-223 are provided through labeled openings on the case top and on the front panel of the unit. On older
versions of the IP-223, access to some of the test and adjustment points is provided through labeled openings on the front
panel; however, the case top needs to be opened to access the other test and adjustment points.
30
Level Adjustments
General Alignment
The IP-223 has a TX alignment tone and an RX alignment VU meter accessible from the front panel of the unit.
• Press and hold the line button and then momentarily press the IC button twice to generate the 1kHz 0dB TX
alignment tone on both lines.
• Press and hold the line button and then momentarily press the IC button three times to display the RX VU
meters.
Radio/Line TX Level
The Radio 1 TX test points (TP2 and TP6) and the Radio 2 TX test points (TP8 and TP9) are located on the front panel of the
IP-223. These provide a point to measure the actual signal being placed into the radio or balanced TX line. The front panel
accessible adjustment Radio 1 TX potentiometer (R47) and Radio 2 RX potentiometer (R61) are used to adjust these levels.
NOTE: If the unit is placed into single-ended mode, the radio TX+ should be measured with respect to ground.
It is also possible to place jumper J9 (line 1) or J26 (line 2) into the A position to decrease the output of the TX line by a factor
of 10. The final adjustment should allow for undistorted audio to be transmitted for the full range of transmission levels at the
desired deviation. This can be accomplished by turning on the TX alignment tone and adjusting the TX output to 0dB, as
measured into a 600 ohm load.
Radio/Line RX Level
Standard Alignment Procedure for a 2- or 4- wire System:
• Inject a 0dBm test tone on the RX pair (4-wire pins 12 and 24: 2-wire pins 13 and 25).
• Measure the RX level on test point TP13 for lin e 1 or TP1 for line 2.
• Adjust potentiometer R175 for line 1 or potentiometer R110 for line 2 until 0dBm is measured between the test
point and GND. (0dBM = 2VPP = .707VRMS)
• Detune slightly 1-2dBm to provide overhead for large transients.
• AGC (Automatic Gain Control) compression potentiometers RV5 for line 1 and RV1 for line 2 control the
aggressiveness of the AGC circuitry, if enabled. The AGC can be used to enhance the gain capabilities of the RX
circuitry. Set RV5/RV1 fully clockwise and, if required, back off 10 to15 degrees maximum.
• Use the RX alignment tool (VU meter) accessed through the LCD display (press and hold the line button and
then momentarily press the IC button 3 times) to verify the dBm level. The reading should be 0dBm with the
AGC turned off. If the AGC is ON, it is likely the RX alignment software always displays 0dBm, the targeted
level for the AGC circuitry.
Line TX Monitor Level (Tone and Console Mode only)
PCB 750743 or PCB 750630 revision C and higher
The Line TX Monitor Level adjustment is used when the IP-223 is connected to consoles set in 4-wire mode. This allows for
local TX audio to be sent back on the Ethernet and played at other consoles so both sides of the radio traffic can be heard. The
alignment for TX monitor is similar to 4-wire RX alignment.
31
Installation and Level Settings
To adjust the TX monitor, do the following:
1. In the options section of the Per Line Setup window, select the TX Monitor.
NOTE: If this feature is not necessary, or the line is in 2-wire mode, the TX Monitor field in the Options section on
the Per Line Setup window should be cleared.
2. Verify the RX alignment is completed first.
To perform a standard alignment for a 4-wire system, do the following:
1. Transmit a 0dBm test tone on the TX audio pairs pins 13 and 25.
2. Measure the RX level on test point TP13 for line 1 or TP1 for line 2.
3. Adjust potentiometer R390 for line 1 or potentiometer R391 for line 2 until 0dBm is measured between the test
point and GND. (0dBM = 2VPP = .707VRMS).
NOTE: Do not adjust the RX potentiometers.
4. Use the RX alignment tool (VU meter) accessed through the LCD display (press and hold the line button and then
momentarily press the IC button 3 times) to verify the dBm level.
CTCSS Level
The CTCSS level is measured by connecting an oscilloscope or RMS meter to ground and Radio 1 CTCSS test point (TP7) or
Radio 2 CTCSS test point (TP10). With the radio connected to the CTCSS output, have the remote console open to receive
audio so CTCSS is present. Adjust the Radio 1 CTCSS potentiometer (R50) or Radio 2 CTCSS potentiometer (R53) until the
desired level is achieved.
Frequency Decoding
The IP-223 is factory tuned to the frequencies shown below. The detection frequencies cannot be changed as they are coded
into the software. However, any actual function or output can be made to work with any existing programmed frequency.
