TS4000 Overview 
 
 
 
 
The TS4000 has two serial ports that provide a data connection between the 
TS4000 and the host equipment.  The serial ports are standard RS-232 
asynchronous serial interfaces and are setup as DCEs.  The serial ports provide 
all the standard RS-232 handshake lines.  In addition, the TS4000 provides a 
number of configuration options that allow the serial port line usage to be 
customized for different host equipment (see Serial Port Configuration Options). 
 
Serial port 1 can be configured for either RS-232 or TTL signal levels.  To 
change the signal level setting, the modem must be opened and the four jumper 
plugs next to the serial port connector moved to the desired position (See 
Appendix A - Serial Port, Appendix F - Internal Jumper Block). 
 
The serial port connectors are standard 9 pin subminiature D with female pins.  
These ports can be mated to with standard PC serial cables.  To minimize 
emissions and interference, the serial cables used should be good quality 
shielded cable (See Appendix A - Serial Port). 
 
A variety of antennas can be used with the TS4000, but it is important that the 
antenna provides a 50 ohm load at the radio’s operational frequencies.  In 
addition, all cabling used with the antenna must be good quality coaxial cable 
with 50 ohm impedance.   
 
Caution: The modem should never be allowed to transmit without an 
antenna or dummy load attached to the antenna connector. 
 
The TS4000 requires a DC supply voltage between 12 and 24 volts.  Note that 
the minimum supply voltage depends on the particular radio module in the 
TS4000.  In addition, the power (watts) used by the TS4000 also depends on the 
particular radio module. 
 
Internally, the TS4000 has a high efficiency switching voltage regulator (as 
opposed to a linear voltage regulator).  The switching regulator minimizes the 
amount of power that the TS4000 requires.  Also, the power required (watts) is 
independent of the input supply voltage. 
 
The power supply current required depends on the input voltage used.  This can 
be calculated with the following formula. 
 
Max Power Supply Current (amps) = Max Power (watts) / Input Voltage 
 
Max Power = 10 watts (The actual value depends on the particular radio module 
in the TS4000). 
Power Supply Voltage = 20 volts 
 
Max Power Supply Current = 10 / 20 = 0.5 amps 
 
With the standard case power can be connected through either the power 
connector or one of the serial port connectors.  The power connector is a 2 pin 
Molex Micro-Fit 3.0 (Molex P/N 43045-0202) with pin 1 as ground and pin 2 as 
power.  The mating plug for this connector is a Molex P/N 43025-0200.  See the 
Serial Port section for details on connecting power through the serial ports.
