CONFIGURATION
The scat configuration process involves the following
procedures and should be completed in the order presented:
1. Hardware Installation - The Hardware Installation
procedure verifies proper installation of GETC
hardware.
2. GETC Software Installation - The GETC Software
Installation procedure provides instructions for
installing the GETC operating software.
3. Turbo Board Software Installation - This procedure
provides instructions for installing the Turbo Board
software.
4. Personality Programming - This procedure
provides instructions for programming and storing
system configuration data in the GETC.
5. Operational Checkout - The Operational Checkout
procedure provides instructions for verifying the
GETC operation when the configuration is
complete.
NOTE
When interfacing the SCAT system into a network,
refer to LBI-38896 for the Downlink GETC
configuration instructions.
EQUIPMENT REQUIRED
The following equipment and software may be required
to configure the GETC:
• IBM compatible PC with at least 640K memory,
monitor, and keyboard.
•
Hard disk is recommended; but, not required.
•
Serial Port configured as either COM1 or COM2.
•
TQ-3360 programming cable.
•
Male DB-25 to female DB-9 adapter.
•
Software distribution diskette 344A4414.
•
Oscilloscope.
HARDWARE INSTALLATION
Typically, a Station GETC is installed in the station
cabinet just above the station's radio assembly. The GETC
is mounted within a slide out shelf measuring 1.75 inches
high (one rack unit) by 19 inches wide.
Installation or removal of the shelf sub-assemblies
involves sliding the GETC shelf out of the cabinet and into
the service position. This position allows access to the
shelf's sub-assemblies. Refer to the MASTR II, IIe, or
MASTR III Application Assembly Diagrams for detailed
information on installing the GETC Shelf.
Stand-alone SCAT System
The Stand-alone SCAT system is based on a standard
EDACS Station GETC using 349A9607G5 Station GETC
software with 344A4414G5 Turbo software. Earlier SCAT
systems required replacing the station GETC software with
unique SCAT software 344A3835G2.
NOTE
Systems upgrading to Group 5 software and using
GETC Logic Board 19D904266G1 must be
upgraded with the Speedy (80C320)
microprocessor and Amps Modem chips, U4 and
U19 (19A704727P4). (Refer to Upgrading
Hardware section of this manual.)
A FerriShield Toroid (REG70469/1) must also be
installed around the Turbo Board’s harness for
EMI suppression, refer to LBI-38822 for details.
Network SCAT Option
SCAT systems integrated into a multisite network
require adding a Downlink GETC using 344A4895G5
GETC software and 350A1121G5 Link Turbo software.
Earlier SCAT systems replaced the standard software with
unique SCAT software 344A3835G2. In addition, a special
interconnect cable must be installed between the Station
GETC and the Downlink GETC.
The Network SCAT option consists of a Downlink
GETC, a GETC interconnect cable. The interconnect cable
provides the connection from the Station GETC to the
Downlink GETC using their Backup Serial Ports. Both the
Station and Downlink GETCs are configured with a Turbo
Board for additional memory and processing capability.
Data communication between the Downlink GETC and
the CEC/IMC Uplink GETC is carried on a four-wire, data
grade, type 3002 audio circuit. As shown in Figure 3, the
SCAT Site is configured as a dedicated site connected to the
CEC/IMC through the Uplink GETC. Therefore, the
maximum number of SCAT channels on a multisite network
is equal to the maximum number of sites allowed on the
CEC/IMC.
