Norman, Ralph's info is on but the only jumpers to worry about will be on the system board, not on the 10 volt card I'm pretty sure. There's one just to the right of where you plugged the long decoder in that has be cut open.
Once working you will notice the speaker audio will go away without a valid encoded signal. Ignore the controller till you get the speaker activating with/without tone. Depending on where your controller COS is wired into the station, the new decoder still may not control/effect the repeater controller. The controller will need to be connected to the RUS circuit, not the CAS circuit. Sorry, did a quick search and couldn't find an LBI to guide you too. My book are at home. 73 Don W5DK From: [email protected] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, March 04, 2008 9:36 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [Repeater-Builder] mastr II repeater tone (CG) board. Norm, There are some jumpers on the 10VDC regulator card that need to be set for CSQ or PL (Channel guard) mode. I disremember the settings, but they are in the manual and documented elsewhere on the web. There should be an lbi document on the repeater-builders website for the PL board to describe the jumpers. Also one for the 10 VDC card. Note, the stock GE PL deck will only encode or decode, but not full duplex both. In the M II station, the PL board next to the receiver mounted on the system board is usually for decode only. There is an open space next to the exciter for an encode only pl deck. You may not have that installed. They are a little harder to get ahold of. Another recent thread discussed the Comspec TS64M2 ? that is designed to drop into a GE in place of the regular PL deck. It does both encode and decode. You'll just have to run the encode audio over to the exciter connector. Otherwise you can mount an SS-32 or equivalent pl encoder in the exciter section for encode capabilities.
