2 Power the repeater from either an AC or DC source.
3 Launch the Tuner application and click Read to read the softpot values.
4 In the tree view, select RX, then select Rx Rated Volume.
5 Set the Communication Analyzer to output a -47 dBm RF signal modulated with a 1 kHz tone at
60% of full deviation on the tuning frequency.
The tuning frequency is the value displayed on the Tuner GUI under the heading Frequency
Points.
NOTICE: The Tuner aligns this parameter in a 12.5 kHz channel spacing, so 60% is 1.5
kHz of deviation. If Radio Management (RM) is set for 25 kHz operation, the repeater
automatically scales the deviation by a factor of two when it is outside the Tuner
environment.
Programmed TPL and DPL squelch requirements are automatically disabled for the
tuning frequency while in the Tuner environment.
6 Adjust the softpot value until the desired receive audio level is achieved at Pin 7 (in reference to
ground) on the Aux connector. The ground connection provided by the Aux connector is Pin 4.
Figure 22: Auxiliary Connector
NOTICE: Optimally, load Pin 7 with the application loading used during normal operation
of the repeater.
7 To save the new tuned softpot value into the repeater codeplug, click Write.

This procedure is used to allow adjustment of the transmitter audio level the repeater is expecting at
the Aux connector. Adjusting this level set has the same effect as increasing or decreasing RF signal
