5.2 Terrestrial Data & Terminal Control Interface (J1)


The J1 Interface supports RS-422 synchrounous Terrestrial Data and RS-232 Remote Terminal
Communications. It is a Female 25-Pin D-Sub Connector. Refer to Table 5-1 for connector
pinouts and Section 4.2 terminal setup and menu descriptions.

Radyne supplies an interfacing Y cables that standardize the terrestrial interface to RS-530 or
RS-449 connection. The Y cable includes a DB 9 connector for Terminal communications that
allows the user to connect to a computer or terminal interface.

• RS530 Y cable is CAR5941
• RS449 Y cable is CA/4263

5.3 EXT REF


The External Reference Input (J2) is supplied to allow the customer to phase-lock the
demodulator’s internal oscillator to an external reference. All internally generated frequencies
within the modem will attain the stability of the applied external reference.

This female BNC Connector accepts a 1.5 – 5 Vp-

p @ 50Ω. The frequency range of the external

reference is 1 – 10 MHz in 8 kHz steps.
