Comm-Tac A Low Cost Approach to Interoperability and Digital Migration
Comm-Tac is designed to meet a growing demand for a low-cost method of solving tactical interoperability problems It meets a challenging need for quick, immediate grouping of dissimilar radios Comm-Tac Overview
Provides tactical interoperability on demand or on a permanent, full time basis Provides radio grouping at the hardware level, inexpensively and effectively Comm-Tac Overview
Front Panel View Easy push button operation for assigning groups. Three position buttons set a radio to Group A, Group B, or Off.
How it Works MOTOTRBO™ UHF Conventional MOTOTRBO™ System UHF System UHF Transmits through the system to MOTOTRBO™ and vice-versa UHF Conventional MOTOTRBO™
How it Works MOTOTRBO™ UHF Conventional MOTOTRBO™ System UHF System The Result is UHF Talking to MOTOTRBO™ effectively UHF Conventional MOTOTRBO™
Rear Panel View 4 individual DB-9 connectors for radio interface, fuse and power connector
PoweringComm-Tac Equipped with a locking connector plug for DC or AC power connections
Connecting Radios Radio resources are connected via radio termination cables purchased from Trident or made by the dealer
Connecting Radios UHF MOTOTRBO™ In the previous demo diagram, the UHF Radio is connected to Port 1 and the MOTOTRBO™ radio is connected to Port 2
4 Resource Capability UHF Conventional 800 MHX Smartnet Group A Group A VHF PassPort or LTR MOTOTRBO™ Group B Group B Connect up to 4 resources (radios) in any combination of 2 groups
4 Resource Capability UHF Conventional 800 MHX Smartnet Group A Group A VHF PassPort or LTR MOTOTRBO™ Group A Group A Or group them all together.
LED Indications The above diagram shows radios 1 and 2 connected as Group A radios 3 and 4 connected as Group B
Making Groups Simply press the button until the desired grouping is reached. Press once for assigning to Group A. Press twice to assign it to Group B. Press a third time and that resource returns to normal mode (ungrouped).
More Examples Nexedge VHF Trunking UHF Conventional P25 800 MHz Nexedge, P25 and VHF Trunking are grouped together. UHF is not grouped with any other radio and is in normal mode.
Can be used at system backbone level or customer level Comm-Tac can be used to map talk groups together that do not normally connect Connect Trunking to Conventional Platforms Applications
Public Safety, First Response Schools, Universities Public Places supporting many different radio users such as Sports Complexes Monitoring radio traffic not usually monitored Opportunities
Construction Companies Utility Companies Power Companies Chemical Plants Manufacturing Facilities Sensitive Environments Vertical Markets
Common Uses UHF Conventional MOTOTRBO™ Neighboring Power Companies can assist each other during outages.
Common Uses UHF Conventional MOTOTRBO™ By using Comm-Tac, assisting power companies can now communicate with the other company when they arrive on scene.
Common Uses “First Response” agencies can group with utilities during disasters or on a regular basis
Common Uses Response to facilities where radio communications and coordination are critical, but usually not possible
Comm-Tac offers adjustments and “Tuning Pots” under the cover for set-up and alignment Not all situations will require adjustments, however, Trident recommends taking appropriate measurements to be sure the Comm-Tac is operating at optimal levels Technical Overview
Set up and Configuration Alignment, settings and instructions are illustrated in the Installation and Operation Manual
Internal View ofComm-Tac Dip Switches for set-up
Alignments and adjustments such as: Squelch Settings COR VOX and sensitivity settings Audio Delay: Adjusted by internal dip switches to support trunking systems and channel acquisition time Set-up and Configuration
Audio Deviation can also be adjusted When combining 25 KHz radios with 12.5 KHz or narrow band radios, some alignment may be necessary to balance audio, etc. Set Up and Configuration
