SLASSY
"Bundle" Special!
The SignaLink has a number of unique features that eliminate the common problems associated with connecting your radio and computer. It also provides some advanced features that are not available on other units.
No
Serial or USB Port
Required - All SignaLink models incorporates a unique Auto-PTT™ circuit that
eliminates the need to connect to a computer Serial or USB Port like
other units. The Auto-PTT™ circuit automatically detects transmissions
from the sound card and activates the radio's PTT circuit. A front panel
Delay Control is provided to select optimum triggering in the various digital
modes. Eliminating the Serial and USB Port connections also substantially reduces
the coupling of RF Noise between the computer and radio.
Complete
Isolation - Unlike other interfaces "claiming" to provide
isolation, all SignaLink models "truly" isolate your computer from your radio. This eliminates troublesome ground loops and prevents
hum and noise from degrading the signals.
Matched
Audio Levels - The SignaLink provides optimum audio levels to both the
computer and radio when using standard radio mic and speaker
connections. This greatly simplifies your setup and getting
everything adjusted correctly. All adjustments can be made using only
your radio and sound card controls.
External Speaker
Support - If you like to listen to your radio’s audio while operating,
then you’ll appreciate the front panel “Auxiliary” audio output jack.
This jack will accept an external speaker or headphone and can be
configured to be active when the SignaLink is ON or OFF. It can also
be set to ALWAYS ON.
Flexible
Power Requirements - The SignaLink consumes so little power that
it can be powered by the “Accessory Voltage” found on most radio Mic
connectors. This makes for a very
simple and clean installation. On
radios that don’t have power available, we have provided an external power
jack on the rear panel.
Front Panel Switches and Indicators - A front panel ON/OFF switch is provided to prevent accidental transmissions. The receive signals are still enabled in the OFF position for convenience in monitoring activity. Bright LEDs are provided to indicate when power is ON and when the PTT is active during transmit.
Every SignaLink is supplied with the following items:
