RIGblaster plus
14
PWR red LED: This simply shows that 12 VDC is applied. The RIGblaster
must be on in order for your mic. to work through the RIGblaster. The RIGblaster
has no on/off switch since the power consumption is less than 0.2 watts in the
AUTO position. It will run for about 50 years for the price of a power switch. The
RIGblaster has extensive surge protection and it is not necessary to ever turn it off.
INSIDE:
You will find two sets of jumper blocks, three LED’s and of course, all of the
components and circuitry.
P1 jumper block: The simple solution that allows a RIGblaster to connect to
over 2000 different radios with the same cable. is for connecting the microphone
wiring to the appropriate radio and mic.
P5 jumper block: Allows you to select which serial line does what. You can
have the DTR, RTS and TXD serial lines control your choice of PTT or keying,
or disable them. This allows you to configure the RIGblaster work with almost
all software available to amateur radio operators.
RTS DTR TXD red LEDs: These are diagnostic LED’s that monitor the activity
of the DTR, RTS and TXD lines. You can check that your computer and software
is working correctly by looking at these LED’s.
FEET:
We have included your choice of protective feet or double-sided adhesive pads.
You may want to stick the RIGblaster down, up or sideways with the pads or use
the feet. The pads are nice as the keep the RIGblaster in place when you pull on
a mic. that has a coiled cord.
