3-2-3. Connecting the R-5000 with a transmitter or transceiver

1.Ground the REMOTE connector pin (pin 7) to mute the R-5000 audio during transmission.

REMOTE connector

The open-circuit voltage at pin 7 is about +4.8 VDC; the short circuit current is about 0.4 mA DC.

2.Connect the antenna to the R-5000 via the transmitter or transceiver antenna switching relay. If you are using a receive-only antenna, disconnect it from the R-5000 while transmitting.

Cautions:

1.Failure to disconnect the antenna from the R-5000 when transmitting on a seperate transmitter/ transceiver will result in damage to the R-5000.

2.Do not apply AC voltage to the REMOTE connector.
