Length approx 1.5m/4ft 10ins.
This cable enables your Icom radio to control your Acom 'S' series linear amplifier. The cable assembly has a DE15 male plug which connects to the Acom's CAT/AUX socket, a 13 pin DIN plug to connect to the transceiver's ACC socket and a mono (TS) 3.5mm jack plug which connects to the transceiver's CI-V (REMOTE) socket.
For use with Acom 'S' series amplifiers, for example:
- Acom 600S
- Acom 700S
- Acom 1200S
- Acom 2020S
- PTT - The amplifier switches to transmit and back to receive at the same time as the transceiver.
- CI-V - The amplifier is able to determine the exact frequency that the transceiver is tuned to. It then automatically switches to the correct band and if amplifier has an ATU fitted, recalls the appropriate ATU setting from memory.
- Remote on/off -
Switching on the transceiver also switches on the amplifier ready for
use. Likewise, switching off the transceiver powers down the amplifier.
For
a more in-depth description of these functions and instructions on how
to set up the amplifier for your transceiver correctly, please consult
your amplifier's manual.
CI-V may need to be configured in the transceiver's menu. Please consult your transceiver's manual.
Disconnect any existing PTT cable before connecting this cable - it is not necessary and will cause incorrect operation.
There are two methods for your linear amplifier to
obtain operating frequency information from your transceiver
automatically. You can use the
information here to choose which you prefer. You will then need to buy
the corresponding Cat/CI-V or Band control cable as they are wired
differently.
Cat/CI-V control
The amplifier is able to determine the exact frequency that the transceiver is tuned to. It then automatically switches to the correct band and if amplifier has an ATU fitted, recalls the appropriate ATU setting from memory.
Pro - The ATU in the amplifier is able to more accurately match the antenna before you transmit.
Con - May make it difficult or impossible to control the transceiver from your computer e.g. for logging software.
Band control
The
amplifier is able to determine the amateur band that the transceiver is
set to. It then automatically switches to the correct band.
Pro
- Doesn't use your Cat/CI-V connection so you can use this to control
your transceiver from your PC e.g. for logging software.
Con - The ATU in the amplifier can only coarse tune the antenna when switching bands and can only determine the exact operating frequency when you begin transmitting.
