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.

FIGURE 76. Local and Tone Mode Connections

Page 12

Overview

• Ethernet TX and LINK LEDs

• PTT, Monitor, F1 and F2 relays (programmable to any

function tone or revert to F1)

• Four (4) PTT modes and three (3) monitor modes

• Nine (9) selectable PTT frequencies

• Seven (7) digital outputs for channel selection,

completely programmable per function tone

• CTCSS (Continuous Tone Coded Squelch System)

generation (64 frequencies)

• Hardware and software gain control

• Local handset port for monitoring activity and

transmission back to base or to radio

• RS-232C port on rear for initial configuration and

direct radio control

• Single function tone recognition (16 function tones)

• RX (Receive) audio squelch

• Crosspatch capability

• ANI (Automatic Number Identification) over-the-air-

protocol—decode and display

• Provides iDEN interface

• Supports Sepura SRM2000, TETRA radio

• E.F. Johnson RS5300 P25 radio interface

• Remote Crosspatch capabilities

• POTS line fail-over

• Phone line interface

• MDC and Fleetsync Decode

• 5/6 Tone signalling encode/decode

• Kenwood radios interface

Console Mode – Allows the use of existing tone-based consoles. The IP-223 decodes industry standard tones, converts it to Ethernet traffic to another IP-223 that can be in tone or local mode.

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.

Page 22

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%.

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.

3. Carefully slide the case top forward past the IC and LINE buttons, and then lift up to gain access to the PCB (Printed

Circuit Board) as shown in Figure 83.

FIGURE 83. IP-223 PCB Assembly

4. Locate the desired jumper on the PCB assembly and use needle nose pliers to adjust the jumper, if necessary.

5. Carefully lift up the case top and place it into position on the chassis bottom.

6. Secure the case top into position using the six (6) screws.

7. Connect power to the IP-223 unit.

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.

• 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.

Page 27

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.

Page 29

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.

Page 30

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. Please consult the factory for special requirements for frequency selections.

CHAPTER 4

Setup Information

The setup information for the IP-223 is accessed by using a web browser, such as Microsoft® Internet Explorer. This section describes the programming information for the IP-223. It includes information on setting the IP Address, accessing the IP-223 web setup windows, the setup window standards, and an explanation of the fields on each window used to program the IP-223.

Setting the IP Address Information

Before entering the setup information for the IP-223, the IP Address and Network Mask must be assigned to the IP-223 by the use of a web browser or Windows™ HyperTerminal™ if the assigned IP Address is not accessible on your network. Contact your network administrator to obtain the network IP Address and Mask.

For the IP-223 to interface successfully with the LAN or WAN, the IP Addresses of the IP-223 and your PC must be on the same subnet. IP Addresses consist of four numbers separated by periods. For example, 10.2.99.101. For more information on IP Addresses and subnets, consult your network administrator.

In order for the PC and the IP-223 unit to communicate via IP, both devices need to be in the same subnet.

NOTE: For operation on different subnets, a gateway address must be configured.

An example of IP Addresses residing in the same subnet:

PC IP Address:10.2.99.250

IP-223 IP Address:10.2.99.251

IP-223 Network Mask:255.255.255.0

To display the IP Address and Network Mask assigned to the IP-223, do the following:

1. Connect power to the IP-223.

The IP Address and subnet mask are displayed on the LCD momentarily upon power up.

2. To check the IP Address and subnet mask at any other time, press and hold the line button on the front panel of the

IP-223, and then momentarily press the IC button.

The IP Address is displayed on the top line of the LCD, and the Network Mask is displayed on the bottom line of the LCD.

Setup Information

Base IP Setup

Use DHCP Server Check Box

The Use DHCP Server check box indicates whether or not DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) is used. If selected, DHCP allows the IP-223 to acquire all of the information for operation on the network bypassing its manual entry.

NOTE: T elex does not recommend operating with DHCP enabled. Operating with DHCP enabled may cause the base IP

Address to change unexpectedly making changes to the software setup more difficult. If employing 5/6-tone selective calling and messaging, DHCP must not be used.

Unit IP Address Field

The Unit IP Address field identifies the unique base address assigned to the IP-223. This address identifies the unit for operations such as setup, software upgrades and communications in some operating modes.

Subnet Mask Field

The Subnet Mask field identifies information used by the IP stack to determine if an IP Address is local or if an IP Address requires the use of a gateway to be reached. Contact your network administrator to obtain the proper value for this field.

Gateway Address Field

The Gateway Address field identifies the IP Address of the node used to reach other networks. Contact your network administrator to obtain the proper value for this field.

DNS (Domain Name Server) Number 1–3 Fields

The DNS Number 1–3 fields are currently not used by the IP-223.

Packet Setup

Packet Delay before Playback Field

The Packet Delay before Playback field identifies the length of delay before playback (jitter buffer). The IP-223 utilizes a 20ms UDP/IP (User Datagram Protocol/Internet Protocol) packet to encode audio. Some buffering of these packets must occur before playback to help absorb network delays, jitters, and lost packets. The typical entry for this field is 6, which translates to a delay of 120ms before playback (each packet is 20ms of audio). Larger values may be required for complicated networks, and smaller values for less complicated networks.

The range for this field is 4 to 29.

QOS (Quality of Service): Precedence Bits Field

The QOS: Precedence Bits field is used to set the priority level of network traffic. Typically this value is left at 0 for normal traffic and 5 for voice traffic.

The range for this field is 0 to 7.

The On With PTT radio button indicates whether or not CTCSS is generated only when PTT is activated.

Tape Output Radio Button

The Tape Output radio button indicates whether or not CTCSS is generated. If selected, no CTCSS is generated. This audio output is used as an analog sum of RX and TX audio for the line. The output port is a single ended capacitor coupled.

Delay Setup

TX Delay Field

The TX Delay field identifies the delay, in ms, of TX audio. When TX Ethernet packets arrive, the PTT relay is closed and TX audio is delayed for the specified time. This provides the ability to overcome timing issues involving repeater attack time or trunking (clear to talk) delays.

The range for this field is 0 to 2000ms.

RX Delay Field

The RX Delay field identifies the amount of time, in ms, RX audio is recorded and stored. RX audio is constantly recorded by the IP-223 and when a COR or LAM triggered detect occurs, the IP-223 goes back the specified time of delay to start generating Ethernet packets. This provides the ability to prevent lost first syllables using COR or LAM.

The range for this field is 0 to 1000ms.

Squelch Tail Delay Field

The Squelch Tail Delay field identifies the amount of time, in ms, the RX audio is muted after PTT occurs. This provides the ability to overcome squelch tail ping-pong in crosspatch modes by muting the radio RX input after PTT occurs.

The range for this field is 0 to 5000ms.

The Tone Enable check box indicates whether or not the function tone is active. If selected, the function tone is active. The frequency for the tone is set on the Tone Frequency and Durations window described on page 112. The standard function tones and their frequencies are the default entries. These entries are shown in Table 7 on page 114.

NOTE: At least one function tone must be selected.

Relay Drop Down Menu

The Relay drop down menu, shown in Figure 9 8, identifies the relay(s), if any, closed immediately upon receipt of the function tone.

Available selections for this field are: no selection, R01, R02, or BOTH.

FIGURE 98. Relay Drop Down Menu—Per Line Setup

Relay Group Drop Down Menu

The Relay Group drop down menu identifies if a relay is grouped into separate functions. This allows more than one relay to be activated at any particular time by being in separate groups. For example, when F1 has R1 selected as its relay, and F2 has R2 selected as its relay, setting the two Relay Group numbers to the same value allows multiple relays with different functions. In this scenario, the relays for F1 and F2 are interlocked. When the Relay Group assigned to F1 and F2 are different, R2 does not activate when F1 is received. Furthermore, when there is no relay selected for a function tone, but the assigned relay group is used by another relay group, when the function tone is received, all relays in the group are activated. This allows relay R1 and R2 to be assigned to different groups and use other function tones within the same relay group to activate them.

Select either 1 or 2 from the drop down menu.

Relay Time (ms) Field

The Relay Time (ms) field identifies if the selected relay(s) latch ON when the function tone is received, or if the selected relay(s) is latched ON for a specified period of time when the function tone is received. To program the relay(s) to latch ON when the function tone is received enter a zero (0) in the field. To set the duration the relay(s) is latched ON, enter the desired amount of time, in ms, in the field.

The range for this field is 0 to 32000.

The range for this field is 0 to 127. H=high (O N), L=low (O FF). Using DIG6 for COR input limits the digital output value from 0 to 63.

CTCSS Freq Field - Local Mode Only

The CTCSS Freq field identifies the CTCSS tone frequency set for the function tone. Enter the desired Tone Number shown on T able 8 in “CTCSS T one Frequency Table” on page 131. If zero (0) is entered, there is no CTCSS tone frequency set for the function tone

CTCSS Default Check Box - Local Mode Only

The CTCSS Default check box indicates whether or not the entry in the CTCSS Freq field is ignored and the last selected value is generated during PTT. For example, F1 is used for all transmissions and CTCSS Default is selected for F1. F2-F8 have different CTCSS values programmed for them and the CTCSS Default check box is cleared. Selecting F2 and then keying up on F1 sets the CTCSS tone to the F2 value. Selecting F4 sets the CTCSS tone to the F4 value. When PTT is pressed, F1 is the default frequency and the F4 CTCSS tone is sent.

System Field - Local Mode

The System field is used to control radios serially connected to the IP-223. Once configured, the IP-223 directs audio to the system entered in the field.

When the function tone is changed by the console operator, this setting, along with the Chan field setting, directs the radio to the system and frequency configured in the field. This field works in conjunction with the Chan field.

This field can contain up to 3 digits.

Chan Field - Local Mode

The Chan field is used to control radios serially connected to the IP-223. Once configured, the IP-223 directs audio to the channel (frequency) entered in the field.

Setup Information

Relay Group Drop Down Menu

The Relay Group drop down menu identifies if a relay is grouped into separate functions. This allows more than one (1) relay to be activated at any particular time by being in separate groups.

For example, when F1 has R1 selected as its relay, and F2 has R2 selected as its relay, setting the two (2) Relay Group numbers to the same value allows multiple relays with different functions. In this scenario, the relays for F1 and F2 are interlocked. When the Relay Group assigned to F1 and F2 are different, R2 does not activate when F1 is received. Furthermore, when there is no relay selected for a function tone, but the assigned relay group is used by another relay group, when the function tone is received, all relays in the group are activated. This allows relay R1 and R2 to be assigned to different groups and use other function tones within the same relay group to activate them.
