4.0  INTRODUCTION
This manual describes the Futurecom Channel Module (CMDUHF).  The Channel Module is a
synthesized, microprocessor-based, high performance radio unit.  It is designed to increase the
coverage area of an existing radio site by receiving and re-broadcasting from host to user (downlink),
and from user to host (uplink).
The operation of the Channel Module is fully transparent to the user of the host radio system.  The
Channel Module can be monitored and controlled remotely via digital communication with the remote
system controller or Computer Aided Dispatch (CAD). This provides high level of radio system
reliability.
The exact operation of the Channel Module depends on the operating mode.  Most features
described in this manual may be enabled or disabled through programming.  The features of the Channel
Module are always selected to suit the particular radio system that it is extending.
The Channel Module can be programmed and controlled via the connector in the front panel from
a laptop computer with installed Futurecom CMDUHF proprietary software .
The unit has six indicators on the front panel, showing the current operating mode.  The
programming software can be also used to display the current status of the device, and measured values
characterizing the received and transmitted signals.
