IDENTIFICATION OF CONTROLS AND CONNECTIONS
1 ANTENNA CONNECTOR
The antenna radiates radio signals. Before using
Quick Talk, make sure the antenna is fastened
securely to this connector. See page 21.
2 TELEPHONE JACK
The modular telephone jack provides temporary con-
nection to a standard pulse or rotary mode telephone
unit, which is used by the owner to program Quick
Assist voice messages and other settings.
WARNING: DO NOT connect the Quick Talk to a line
from the telephone company; doing so
will damage the unit, and void the
manufacturer's warranty.
3 BATTERY HOLDER
The battery holder accommodates the six (6) standard
"AA" alkaline cells required to power the Quick Talk.
NOTE: ALWAYS INSTALL A FRESH SET of alkaline
batteries before programming the unit.
4 SWITCH #1 TERMINALS
These terminals are for connection to a switch the
user supplies. Quick Talk transmits voice messages
determined by the state of this switch.
5 SWITCH #2 TERMINALS
These terminals are for connection to an optional
user-supplied switch. This manual describes how to
use Switch #2 as an On/Off switch to enable or disable
the Quick Talk transmitter, as well as programming
normal debounced and contact closure settings, and
latching mode. Refer to page 9 for details.
6 EXTERNAL POWER TERMINALS
Refer to page 8 for information about connecting an
external 12 Volt DC power supply to these terminals.
7 WATERTIGHT STRAIN RELIEF CABLE FITTING
The cable to your external switches passes through
this fitting. When the strain relief fitting is used with
recommended cable sizes, it provides a water-
resistant enclosure. Do not overtighten this fitting.
NOTES: Use Radio Shack Telephone Station Wire,
6-conductor, solid 24-AWG In-wall Type CM,
Cat. No. 278-874, or equivalent size round
cable (0.114 0.250 diameter).
If you cannot find suitable wire, call Ritron
at 800-872-1872.

this jumper controls selection of wide or narrow band-
width.

DO NOT remove this jumper. As described on page 8,
this jumper controls charging of optional Ni-Cd
batteries.

The Quick Talk
can be used with two-way radios that use "companded
audio." For radios with Companded Audio -place the
jumper in the COMP position. For radios without
Companded Audio - place the jumper in the NON-
COMP position. To determine if your radio uses
companded audio, call Ritron or your radio supplier.

any other fasteners or
further disassemble the Quick Talk unit; doing so risks
damage to the unit and voiding the manufacturer's warranty.
