Hello Everyone,
We will be holding the Webinar Sunday April 12th at 6:00PM
I am looking for people who would like to present system fusion related
content. I know a lot of people are doing stuff with fusion so please
feel free to contact me direct if you would like a time slot.
I will be posting more details this weekend as well as a registration form.
Best Regards & 73,

100% duty cycle change by Yaesu

Hello all....
Yaesu's change with the specifications of the DR-1X power output is
disappointing.
It does not provide confidence in Yaesu's technical expertise with
repeaters.
We purchased our repeaters as 50 watt repeaters. There had been much
discussion
about the 50 watts and 100% duty cycle but any repeater that can run 50
watts has
to assume 100% duty cycle. Just how long is a QSO or net....?
The 50 watts at 50% duty cycle is technically silly for a repeater....
50 watts for 12 hours then no activity for 12 hours...?
50 watts for 15 minutes then no activity for 15 minutes...?
We were also told (right or not) that if the repeater running 50 watts
became too
hot then the power was reduced...Correct or not....?
Very disappointed Yaesu...
However that said they are a good repeater with a very sensitive
receiver and
great FM audio (and digital). I would like to see the basic repeater and its
internal controller have more flexibility so you don't have to interface
a separate
controller. Reading all the problems with doing this makes it appear for
many as
just too hard.

Will

Will,
I wonder where you saw that the repeater was rated at 50W at 100% duty
cycle.
Just curious.

Stef,
There are no adjustments in the radio. Calibration is performed
electronically via the interface port.
Yaesu has not published the "Technical Supplements" for the Fusion
radios, and thus has not published the calibration procedures.
There are limits on how low a power amplifier should be set. 5 watts to
50 watts is a large dynamic range. Reducing the power by any significant
amount could result in instabilities or other unintended consequences.
My suggestion is to attenuate the transmit signal as needed. The "poor
man's" way of doing this is to use cable with high loss, such as RG-58/U.
I have an Icom FR6000 which does provide a tool with their programmings
software to calibrate the radio. I too wanted to adjust the power down.
I know this is a different radio, but the Tx became unstable at about
2.5 watts. I ended up setting it at 3.9 to provide sufficient safety
margin. Not much of a drop from 5 watts.
Hope this helps,
Chris, K9EQ

Ken,
The display is controlled by one of the two display boards mounted on
top of each other. The back board, which you can easily see, is for the
Tx and doesn't actually have a display connected to it. (I have no idea
why it needs to be there.)
The Tx, Rx, and both display boards have boot/run switches that need to
be in the run position. Boot is used to update firmware. So far we have
only updated firmware for the Rx, which contains the repeater controller.
Some things to try:
1. Verify that all connections are solid, particularly from the Rx to
the front display panel.
2. Try reloading the firmware (1.00Z) which is installed in the Rx.
3. I think this will work, but do this at your own risk: Connect an
FTM-400 display to the Rx and see if it works. If it does but the
repeater doesn't, you at least know where the problem is. At any case,
it's likely you will be returning the unit to Yaesu for repair if #1 and
#2 don't work.
I have 3 DR-1(X) machines and have never seen this problem.
The lack of the start up sounds indicates to me that the Rx controller
is at fault. However, if the Rx is not able to work with the display
board, that will cause the Rx not to work.
73,
Chris, K9EQ
(You didn't break anything whilst exploring, did you?) Whatever you do,
don't plug or unplug things while the system is powered! Especially the
display boards! That's a good way to brick the repeater.

Ken,
The only difference we have noted is that pin 8 (discriminator output)
is not. It is squelched, filtered audio. No CTCSS comes out so using an
external decoder will not work. The wiring to the RX section in the beta
and production units is completely different. Some of the wires are
soldered directly to IC pins and we haven't had the desire to let the
magic smoke out trying to find an alternate source of audio.

I can't even get the unit to reset (using the procedure outlined in the
User Manual).
As for the ADR working with the beta DR1, my understanding is that not
all the signals needed by the ADR are available on the back panel DB15
without a hardware upgrade. Perhaps someone can clarify this

NO! I have three at one site a Beta and two DR-1Xs. I have the
displays set to turn off after five min of no touching the screen.
The Beta has been on 24/7 since about May of last year. One of the
DR-1Xs since just after Dayton last year and the other one since late
last yesr.
Hope this info helps.
BTW will the ADR interface work on the old Beta box??
Thanks

Subject: [YaesuSystemFusion] Here's a first....
Our DR1x has been powered up 24/7 in our shop since around the 1st of
year (this is our unit we use for testing our ADR Interface).
I came into the shop this morning to see the display a solid white
color. The receiver seems to be working ok and the transmitter is
making power but not on its programmed channel - it should be on
442.675 but it is now actually doing so on 442.700.
Also, we're unable to make any changes as the touch screen appears to
be dead as well. A power cycle doesn't correct the problem and we
notice the usual "start up" tone sequence is not heard in the local
speaker either.
Anyone else experienced a similar failure?

I wouldn't be too quick to jump on the idea the AMBE will be 'patent
free' in 2017. The original patents are about to expire, but like any
company there are newer patents on improvements to AMBE and Fusion uses
the newer methods which are implemented in the AMBE-3000 series (and
their firmware license equivalents).
DVSI is known to enforce their intellectual property rights.
The AMBE chip is just a component like the microprocessors and other
patented components in your radios.

I can't fault Yaesu per se RF Best practices apply no matter what the
label on the box is. I would also network with folks that have "been
there, done that" While flatpack duplexers look ok on paper, you really
can't run them on a repeater where you need the split you do.
Good luck!

Mike N8NQP

Quick question are you guys using CTCSS or DCS?
If your using DCS and NOT using the 15 pin port, then upgrade to ver “R”
or “Z” for the DR-1X.

Thanks for the info Jim, I have been out of state in Texas for the last
month and had to leave the system in fixed analog. Now that i'm back I
will check out the 1x update and may very well take your suggestion on
the "Z". I really don't care about the rear port I just want the machine

John,
Any of the firmware updates for the DR-1X will work with the DR-1. The
only caveat is that the install notes will tell you they can't guarantee
if some of the functions on the 15 pin connector may not work. The only
thing I have found is that the dicriminator audio out no longer is. We
currently use the Z version firmware on the DR-1 with no ill effects.

Subject: [YaesuSystemFusion] DR-1 Lockup
It appears that our DR-1 has locked up in the middle of a digital QSO.
Almost like it has timed out only it never came back. We heard some
strange audio during one of the participants transmissions than the
repeater won't key up. I am going up to the site to check it later
today. I recall some users having a "lock-up issue". without going
through hundreds of messages is there a fix for this? Also, is there a
firmware update for the DR-1 that I can try? I don't see any files out
there for the DR-1 just the DR-1X. If someone has a firmware update for
the DR-1 can they pass it along to me.
Thanks,

Hi Terry,
Welcome to system fusion and I would point out that there is a group
dedicated to FT400 users which you may wish to consider. As a user who
has perhaps been through many frustrations that you may encounter please
do not hesitate to seek answers should you encounter any problem. I
hasten to add the manual is superb and I am sure you do not need me to
suggest reading it cover to cover before operating your "new toy". Enjoy
C4FM as the audio quality will blow your mind.
