Mine never goes solid. It starts blinking more quickly but not as quickly as the heartbeat LED. I think that means the test failed. On Sat, Nov 25, 2017 at 10:34 AM, Jesse Lloyd <ve7lyd@gmail.com> wrote:
I flip both middle switches (2&3) down. Wait for the LED to go solid. Flip them back.

Yes, I believe I am feeding unsquelched audio to the RTCM. How do you properly do the calibration procedure?

The calibration needs to work before the RTCM will squelch properly.

I am trying to prototype a RTCM based voting system with 2 RTCMs. I am using two JSLM2 Data Radios as transceivers. Using HP8920B service monitor to drive the radios.
Good news: I can get both RTCMs and both radios to transmit. Test tones sound fine. Deviation good.
Bad news: I can't get the RTCMs to register the incoming audio signal. There is no CTCSS in these radios, so that line is not connected. I have no COS signal connected either. Just audio in/out and PTT to the radio.
I have confirmed the radios are receiving and are sending audio to the RTCMs using an oscilloscope. If anything the audio is way high in level. I measured 1v peak-to-peak when I think the RTCM is expecting 200mV. Tried the 20db pad with no effect. My suspicion is that the RTCM is a high-impedance input so the voltage is floating up in the absence of appropriate load (say from a 600 or 2k ohm).
Second, I never get the green receive light on so I suspect there is actually some squelching or some such going on that is gating the audio signal off.
Third, I have not been able to the the Squelch calibration or Diode calibration to behave. Does this require the diagnostic cable described in the interface to be used? The procedure is not documented well.
I would love to see a know working config and wiring setup to confirm what I have done.
