Using the CTU with a TB8100
The CTU provides a selection of input and output connectors that allow the
TB8100 base station to be connected to standard test equipment, and also
to a PC running the Service Kit or Calibration Kit software. These inputs,
outputs and associated controls are identified in

The CTU is designed to make it easier to program, tune or calibrate
TB8100 modules. It also allows a user to monitor and control the inputs
and outputs available on the reciter’s system interface connector.

Important
Do not power the CTU from a PMU fitted with a 48V
auxiliary power supply board. The maximum supply volt-
age for the CTU is 32VDC. Use either a PMU 12VDC or
24VDC auxiliary output, or an external power supply.
Note that the auxiliary output can be supplied to the CTU
via the system interface connector on the reciter if the aux-
iliary DC power cable is fitted, as well as via a direct con-
nection to the PMU auxiliary output.
