EchoLink-2
■ Selecting a Transmit Speed
Some repeaters may not respond correctly if a code is
transmitted at fast speed. If this happens, change the
EchoLink transmission speed from FAST (default) to SLOW.
1 Enter Menu mode and access Menu 205.
2 Set the speed to FAST or SLOW.
SETTING UP EchoLink Sysop MODE
Connect the TM-D710G to a personal computer to use the
system as a node station for EchoLink relaying.
When connecting to a personal computer and using the
EchoLink Sysop mode, the hard fl ow control operation RTS and
CTS computer terminals operate the same as and are changed
with the SQC (squelch control signal output to the computer)
and PKS (transmit control signal input from the computer) data
terminals.
The current band becomes the same as the data band which is
selected in menu No. 918 regardless of the transmission band
and operation band.
Use the PG-5H (interface cable kit) when connecting to a
personal computer.

Note:
◆ When using EchoLink Sysop mode, perform the following settings (1) ~ (4).
(1) Set the SQC output setting (Menu No. 921) to “SQL”.
(2) When unnecessary noise signals, etc., are sent from the link station
to the internet while CTCSS and DCS are active, use can verify the
usage condition of the operating frequency by setting “EchoLink RX
Monitor” ([Edit] > [Menu] > [Transmit/Receive]) via the MCP-6A to
“Busy Only”.
Because of this, when EchoLink Sysop mode is ON, all received
signals on the DATA band are output from the speaker irregardless of a
matching CTCSS or DCS signal.
(Voice signals are output from the DATA terminal only when the
CTCSS or DCS signals match.)
(3) To avoid having the EchoLink software detecting a busy state even
when the transceiver power is turned OFF, set the “SQC Output Logic”
([Edit] > [Data Terminal]) via the MCP-6A to “High”.
(When performing this setting, ensure that the EchoLink’s software
“Invert Sense” setting in the RX Ctrl tab of the Sysop Setup window is
not checked.)
(4) When the audio level adjustment range on your personal computer is
insuffi cient, adjust the AF output level “PR1 Pin Output Level” ([Edit] >
[Data Terminal]) and AF input sensitivity “PKD Pin Input Level” ([Edit]
> [Data Terminal]) of the transceiver via the MCP-6A. Adjustments can
be made in steps of 6dB.
◆ The settings in numbers 2 ~ 4 (above) can be performed only using a MCP-
6A.
◆ When EchoLink Sysop mode is ON, it cannot communicate with the MCP-
6A. When using the MCP-6A, be sure to turn EchoLink Sysop mode OFF.
