C-5000 COMMUNICATION MANAGEMENT CONTROLLER INSTALLATION MANUAL PRINT MENU – Displayed by pressing F5 from the Main Menu. This menu lists the various printouts that the RSS software can generate. The most simplistic printer available will be the best to use. If an old Dot Matrix is available, use that. Simply hook up a printer, and with an Archive resident in memory, press the applicable “F” key shown below.
Glossary AM – Acronym for “Amplitude Modulation”. In this type of modulation, the amplitude of the signal is varied in proportion to the voice or data input signal. The signal quality can be severely degraded because of lightning or man made electrical noise. AM is only used in the frequency ranges 108 to 152 MHz and 225 to 400 MHz. All air traffic control functions use AM modulation. Audio Phase – The RT-5000 can invert the phase of the audio signal during transmit or receive.
C-5000 COMMUNICATION MANAGEMENT CONTROLLER INSTALLATION MANUAL Guard Receiver – Second receiver added to the transceiver to monitor a specific frequency. Some common “guard” frequencies are 121.5, 243, Marine channel 16, and Marine channel 70. However, this optional function can also be used to monitor a dispatch channel, or an important tactical frequency. Some Guard receivers have a single frequency that is set in hardware.
Repeat – This mode of operation uses a ground or air based repeater to retransmit your signal to another radio. Transmit and receive frequencies are different. RP - Acronym for “Remote Programmer”. Wulfsberg’s software to program the C-5000 with channel information via a connector of the front of the C-5000 is called the RP Software. It is recommended that this method is used whenever possible to program the C-5000 memory.

Appendix B – Mode 2 Operation Overview The C-5000 has the capability to control the RT-5000 in such a way that the user can monitor both the main and the Guard (ITM) channel at the same time. This mode of operation is more difficult to use than MODE 1. The Home Page The only visible difference in the HOME PAGE from Mode 1 operation is in the Main/Guard status fields. The illustration below depicts the HOME PAGE for a system comprised of two digital RT-5000 radios.
C-5000 COMMUNICATION MANAGEMENT CONTROLLER INSTALLATION MANUAL Setting the Active Transceiver You can toggle the active transceiver for a radio between Main and Guard by pressing the soft keys.

C-5000 COMMUNICATION MANAGEMENT CONTROLLER INSTALLATION MANUAL SECTION 6 -SYSTEM VERIFICATION PROCEDURE 1. General The following procedure is written for the purpose of verifying the installation of the C-5000 and associated radio systems. It assumes the user has basic knowledge of the operation of the C-5000 in order to perform this procedure. If need be, review the C-5000 operations manual before beginning the procedure.
C-5000 COMMUNICATION MANAGEMENT CONTROLLER INSTALLATION MANUAL 12. Using a signal generator or a known available channel, verify that all transceivers can receive normal signals. Standard signals that may be used are air traffic control tower or ATIS frequencies for AM channels (RT-5000 only) and NOAA weather channels for VHF FM frequencies. Verify the frequencies above 13.
