The Technisonic RC-7000 Remote Control provides for remote slaved operation of the TDFM-7000 Multi-Band Airborne FM Transceiver. It is a secondary (slave) control point and is not intended to replace the functionality of the front panel of the radio. This microprocessor controlled remote allows for a second person at a location other than near the transceiver, to exercise channel and function control of all installed features. Active Channel(s), selected frequency or alpha numeric identifier, operating mode and status are displayed for all installed bands. Simultaneous operation on up to four bands can be controlled by the radio or the RC-7000. Simulcast and cross band repeat can also be controlled via this remote control. The RC-7000 weighs just 11 oz and requires less than 2 inches (depth) behind a 5.75 in. by 3.75 in. Dzus mounting panel. Data transfer between the TDFM-7000 transceiver and the RC-7000 is at 9600 baud via a 3 wire RS-232 serial interface. Power requirement is 150 mA (max) at 28.0 Vdc. Panel back lighting is 28 Vdc or 5Vac (software configurable).
