USING TH-D7A AS A COMMANDER
To use a TH-D7A transceiver as a “Commander” (an
external remote control unit), follow the steps below.
Basically, it is the same as using a TM-D700A as a
“Commander” (described on the previous page).
TS-2000(X) (Transporter) Setup:
1 Press [MENU], then turn the MULTI/ CH control to
access Menu No. 62A.
2 Enter your callsign (ex: WD6DJY) as a
“Commander” callsign, using [+]/ [–] or the
MULTI/ CH control. To move the cursor, press
[MAIN] or [SUB]. Press [M.IN] to store the
callsign to Menu No. 62A.
3 Press [MENU], then turn the MULTI/ CH control to
access Menu No. 62B.
4 Enter your alias callsign (ex: WD6DJY-1) as a
“Transporter” callsign, using [+]/ [–] or the
MULTI/ CH control. To move the cursor, press
[MAIN] or [SUB]. Press [M.IN] to store the
callsign to Menu No. 62B.
Note: You can use alpha-numeric characters, A to Z, 0 to 9 and
“-”. The callsign must be no more than 9 characters long
including “-”. Also, the following callsign formats cannot be
entered:
•
WD6DJYZ
If you use only letters and numbers for the callsign, the
maximum length is 6 characters.
•
WD6-DJY-1
You cannot use more than 1 “-” within a callsign.
•
-WD6DJY
You cannot use a “-” as the first callsign character.
•
WD6DJY-19
An SSID must be within the range of 1 to 15.
5 Access Menu No. 62C, then turn the MULTI/ CH
control to select a CTCSS tone frequency for Sky
Commander II+ (default is 88.5 Hz).
6 Access Menu No. 62D and select the
communication speed for Sky Command II+.
Select 1200 bps for TH-D7A (9600 bps can be
used only when you use another TS-2000 as a
“Commander”).
7 Assign the TNC band to the sub-band by
accessing Menu No. 46 and select SUB.
8 Select a 144 MHz band frequency in FM mode on
the main transceiver and 440 MHz band frequency
in FM mode for the sub-receiver for Sky Command
operation.
TH-D7A (Commander) Setup:
1 Access Menu 4–1 to enter the same callsign that
you entered for the Commander (ex: WD6DJY).
2 Access Menu 4–2 to enter the same callsign that
you entered for the Transporter (ex: WD6DJY-1).
3 Access Menu 4–3 to select the same CTCSS tone
frequency that you selected for the TS-2000(X)
(Transporter).
4 Set the same frequencies that you selected for the
“Transporter” for the VHF and UHF bands.
Note: Refer to Chapter 19, Sky Command II, of the TH-D7A
instruction manual for details on how to enter the callsign and CTCSS
tone frequency.
CONTROL OPERATION
First, switch the TS-2000 transceiver ON and select
T-PORTER (Transporter) from Menu 62E.
Then, access Menu 4–4 on the TH-D7A and select
“COMMANDER”. “PUSH [0] KEY TO START
COMMANDER!!” appears.
Press [0] on the TH-D7A to start Sky Command
mode.
When in Sky Command mode, the keys of the TH-D7A
(Commander) will function as described below. Only
[LAMP], [MONI], and the VOL control functions will
not change.
Each time you press the desired key, the Commander
will automatically enter transmit mode and send the
corresponding control command to the TS-2000
(Transporter).
