GENERAL INFORMATION

Midian’s VAE-1-SM1G is a GPS speaker microphone voice alarm encoder that can have a voice message stored

in it and when the emergency switch is activated the VAE-1 will transmit an emergency ANI and/or the

prerecorded voice message. The voice alert is ideal for providing location information when GPS location is not

available (i.e. in buildings, tunnels, etc.) The following is a common application:

Emergency Location and Lone Worker: The VAE-1 is ideal for providing voice location messages for Public

Safety (firefighters and police) or for lone workers in areas where GPS location is not available. For example,

firefighters can store a custom voice message into the VAE-1 as their location changes while fighting a fire in a

building. If there is a fire in a ten story apartment building and the firefighter is working on the second floor in

apartment 215, the firefighter can record “Second floor apartment 215”. If the firefighter moves to the third floor in

apartment 306 the firefighter can rerecord the message to say “Third floor apartment 306”. If the emergency input

is activated (by a button press or the lone-worker feature) then the VAE-1 will send an emergency ANI to identify

to the dispatcher who is in trouble and then the voice message will follow to inform the dispatcher the distressed

firefighter last recorded location. This enables the rescuers to concentrate their search efforts in one area of the

apartment building rather than splitting their search efforts between ten stories. Locator tones can also be

generated to provide an audible alert to the searchers.

The VAE-1-SM1G encodes ANI and Emergency ANI along with Midian’s GPS location reporting to Midian’s CAD-

800 or CAD-800U which uses a Google Earth interface to display the unit’s location on a map.

The VAE-1-SM1G also offers Man-Down and Lone Worker features. If the unit does not detect movement (Man-

Down) or receive any user interaction (PTT or Lone Worker Reset button) for a programmable period of time the

unit can key the radio and send the Emergency ANI.

In addition to the above encoding features, the VAE-1-SM1G can decode commands from the CAD-800 such as

Polling, Selective Calling, Radio Disable, Radio Enable, Spy (Remote Monitoring) and Emergency Acknowledge.

Polling allows the dispatcher to request a unit’s GPS location. Selective calling can be to call an individual unit, a

group of units or all units. If a unit becomes lost or stolen, it can be disabled, so it cannot interfere with the

system. If the unit is later recovered the unit can be re-enabled. The Spy function enables the dispatcher to

eavesdrop on a unit during an emergency or other condition. If multiple Emergency IDs are transmitted, the

dispatcher can stop subsequent Emergency ID transmissions using the Emergency Acknowledge feature.

HARDWARE INSTALLATION

Be certain to follow standard anti-static procedures when handling any of Midian’s products.

For all diode protected inputs (i.e. PTT Input, Mode Input, COR Input) the voltage level to be required for a logic

low is less than 0.5 V and a logic high requires at least 2.1 V.

J1 – RJ-48 10-Pin Connector:

J1:1 – Program In: The KL-4 Option B or KL-4F-PC2 must be plugged in to access this pin for programming.

J1:2 – PL DIS: Hook switch for mobile radio applications.

J1:3 – MIC: Connect to the MIC+ connection on the radio’s external mic connector

J1:4 – Ground: Connect to a ground connection on the radio’s external mic connector.

J1:5 – COR/LTR: Future use.

J1:6– B+ (+3.5-8.0 VDC): This connection is only needed if not using the internal battery of the SM1. Connect to

B+ (3.5-8.0 VDC) connection on the radio’s external mic connector. If connecting to a mobile this must be

specified when ordering or you must install a 6.2 V Zener diode at D1 if the voltage is higher than 9.7 V. Connect

to a regulated voltage point in a vehicular radio if engine noise is present on the battery line. With D1 installed, the

voltage input could be as high as 15 VDC (nominal is 13.5 VDC). R-5 O Ohm resistor must be installed. Note: If

connecting this input DO NOT install the battery into the microphone and U1 must be removed.

J1:7 – PTT: Connect to a PTT connection on the radio’s external mic connector used to key the radio. Some

radios look for a resistance on the microphone input to trigger PTT, R-50 in the SM-1 is used for this purpose and

will need to be picked on an individual radio basis. For Vertex radios this should be a 2.7 K resistor.

J1:8 – SPK Ground (SPK-): If connecting to a radio with a double ended speaker, then connect this line to the

negative side of the speaker connection on the external mic connector. If connecting to a radio with a single

ended speaker, this line is not connected.

J1:9 – SPK Hi (SPK+): Connect this line to the positive side of the speaker connection on the external mic

connector.

J1:10 – Program Out: The KL-4 Option B or KL-4F-PC2 must be plugged in to access this pin for programming.

J2 – 3.5 mm Stereo Connector:

The 3.5 mm stereo connector on the SM1 is a dual purpose connector; charging and audio. The tip is 6V for

charging, ring is Speaker + and sleeve is ground. Use only Midian supplied wall power adaptors and audio

accessories for use with the SM1.

Charging: To charge the unit, plug the Midian supplied wall power adaptor into an outlet and then plug the 3.5

mm plug into the 3.5 connector on the unit. When the LED is glowing green the unit is charging. When the LED

goes out then it is done charging. When the unit is in need of a charge the unit will emit a descending series of

tones to indicate low battery. Only use Midian provided accessories for charging.

Audio: The 3.5 mm connector can be used as an audio accessory port (i.e. ear bud). The connections should be

ring as Speaker + and Sleeve as ground. Not using a Midian supplied audio accessory could result in damage to

the unit.

PRODUCT PROGRAMMING

Midian’s SM-1 products are programmed via Midian’s KL-4F and KL-4F-PC2 or the KL-4 and KL-4 Option B, as

well as the MPS software. Please reference the KL-4 manual for setup instructions of the programming software

and hardware. From the product selection screen in the software, select the VAE-1-SM1G from the list and click

OK.

Set the parameters of the software to fit the application. If any clarifications on a feature are required, move the

mouse cursor over the feature name until the question mark appears and right click, a definition of the feature will

be shown.

After entering the parameters, save the file by going to File - Save As. Enter the file name in the File Name block

and click Save. Saving the file will allow for quick and easy reprogramming of units.

If using the KL-4F, plug the KL-4F-PC2 cable from the KL-4F’s RJ-11 connector (P10) into the RJ-48 connector

on the SM1.

If using the KL-4, plug the KL-4 Option B cable from the KL-4 connector labeled “P4 VPU-12A” into the RJ-48

connector on the SM1.

Push the power button on the KL-4F or KL-4 and within 15 seconds select Program Unit or Read Unit in the

software. Upon power up the unit will be awake for 15 seconds before going into Power Save mode.

After programming or reading the unit, turn off the unit for 3 seconds and then turn back on.

Wake on COR/Wake on VOX: Select the appropriate method that the unit should use to come out of power save.

Note: Most portables do not provide COR on the speaker mic port, so it will be necessary to use VOX detection.

COR Hold-Up Time This is the amount of time after loss of COR/VOX that the unit considers COR/VOX dropped.

VOX Settings > Sensitivity: This is a threshold detection based on the energy level in the audio.

VOX Settings > Attack Time: This sets the minimum time before the unit will detect VOX based on the sensitivity

setting.

VOX Settings > Decay Time: This sets the time before the unit will drop the VOX detection. Be certain to set this

long enough so that you do not have drop outs between words or on brief pauses.

Beep Options > Power Up: Enables a short beep sequence that takes place immediately after power-up.

Beep Options > Error: This beep may be triggered by any input event if programmed to do so. For example, if a

long press on the Mode Input is not assigned to a function, it may be configured to generate the error beep. If

there is a failure of the GPS module, then about 20 seconds after power up the error beep will be heard.

Beep Options > Mode: This is used to indicate to the user when the mode has been enabled/disabled (i.e. Lone

Worker enabled).

Beep Options > Go Ahead: This is a local beep out the speaker to indicate to the user that ANI has been sent

and it is okay to talk.

Beep Options > Wake Up Beep: Enables a short beep to be sent over the air immediately after PTT is pressed.

Enabling this beep is recommended when the 'Wake on VOX' feature is used.

Beep Options > Courtesy Beep: If selected, once the PTT button is released, the unit will generate a courtesy

tone to let others know it is done transmitting.

Beep Options > Enable Side Tone Pin: Future Use.

Voice Compression: If left unchecked the VAE-1 can store up to a 3-minute voice message. If checked the VAE-

1 can store up to a 2.25 minute voice message, but with a higher level of audio quality.

Trunking Delay Enable: Check this box if using a trunking system. This will cause the unit to hold off transmitting

the ANI until it has received a channel acquisition acknowledgement from the radio. This field is not used with

portable radios.

Key-Up Delay: This sets the amount of time the unit waits after keying the radio before it transmits the ANI.

CAD Settings:

System ID: Set this field to the same value as the System ID programmed into the CAD-800 or CAD-800U. Only

a CAD-800 with the same System ID can decode the GPS location information from the GPS speaker mic. This

field is a six character field that supports 000000-FFFFFF (0-9 & A-F) for a total of 16,777,216 System IDs.

Restore System ID To Default: Pressing this button will return the System ID to Midian’s default System ID of

4D6964.

Group ID: This sets the group number that the unit is a part of. The Group ID is a 3 character field that supports

000-FFF (0-9 & A-F) for a total of 4096 groups.

Individual ID: This sets the unit’s identification number. The Individual ID is a 5 character field that supports

00000-FFFFF (0-9 & A-F) for a total of 1,048,576 unit IDs per group. Between all groups and unit IDs the total

number of supported IDs by the system is 4,294,967,296.

Enable CAD Decode: Checking this box enables Midian’s FMP signaling features such as Polling, Radio

Disable, Radio Enable, Selective Calling, Remote Monitoring and Emergency Acknowledge.

Polite Transpond: If the unit is required to transpond in response to a command from the CAD-800, it will do so

immediately after receiving the command. Checking this box will cause the unit to check for a busy channel

indication (using VOX or COR) before transponding. If the channel is busy, the transpond will be postponed until

the channel is no longer busy.

Spy Duration: When a Spy command (remote monitoring) is received from the CAD-800, this sets the amount of

time that the speaker mic will key-up the radio and transmit audio from the microphone.

Number of Rings: This sets the number of times the speaker microphone will ring when it receives a selective

call before timing out.

GPS Enable: Check this button to enable the GPS or GLONASS features of the product.

GNSS: Select which Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) is being used GPS or GLONASS. GPS is the

United States’ form of GNSS. GLONASS is Russia’s form of GNSS. GLONASS is currently in development.

Please contact Midian for the availability of GLONASS in the GPS speaker microphone.

Beep Upon First Fix: If checked, the GPS speaker microphone will give a double beep once the GPS speaker

microphone has acquired a location fix. The time to acquire a fix is dependent upon various conditions such as

terrain, buildings, weather, etc. Under ideal conditions this time could be as fast as 30 seconds. A first fix

acquisition time of 2-3 minutes would not be abnormal under other conditions.

GPS Power Save Enable: Checking this box will help extend battery life by placing the GPS receiver in a low

power or “sleep” state for 30 seconds in between position fixes. Upon waking, the GPS receiver is left on at full

power until two valid position fixes are determined and then once again is placed in sleep mode. Under good

signal conditions it takes about 20 seconds for the GPS receiver to acquire new fixes after waking. Therefore one

can expect a new fix to be determined about once per minute, though this cannot be guaranteed.

Signaling Position Settings: Leading and trailing signaling types (ANI, FMP and FMP w/GPS) can be selected

here. For example MDC-1200 can be sent on the leading edge and Midian’s FMP with GPS can be sent on the

trailing edge.

ANI: The ANI specified in this selection is not the typical FMP ID used by Midian’s GPS speaker mics. Instead

this refers to ANI formats such as MDC-1200, FleetSync, DTMF, 5-Tone or GE-Star. One of these formats can be

selected to send a pre-ANI or post-ANI.

FMP: This refers to Midian’s signaling protocol used in the GPS speaker microphone minus the GPS location

information.

FMP w/GPS: This refers to Midian’s signaling protocol used in the GPS speaker microphone including the GPS

location information.

Protocol Format: Select the desired signaling format in which the ANI and ENI will be transmitted.

Tone Duration: This field only applies to DTMF and 5-Tone formats and sets the length of each tone.

Tone Gap Duration: This field only applies to DTMF and sets the length of the gap between tones.

Fleet ID: This field only applies to FleetSync and sets the Fleet ID of the unit.

Unit ID: This sets the non-FMP ANI of the unit.

Message: This field only applies to G-Star.

Status: This field only applies to G-Star.

Repeat Delay: This sets the time after sending an ANI that the unit will wait before sending another ANI.

FMP: This refers to Midian’s signaling protocol used in the GPS speaker microphone minus the GPS location

information.

FMP w/GPS: This refers to Midian’s signaling protocol used in the GPS speaker microphone including the GPS

location information.

Protocol Format: This displays the format selected on the ANI tab.

Fleet ID: This field only applies to FleetSync and sets the Fleet ID for the ENI.

Unit ID: This sets the Emergency ANI of the unit.

Message: This field only applies to G-Star.

Status: This field only applies to G-Star.

Transmit Forever: If selected the ENI will transmit continuously at the repeat interval until canceled.

Busy Lockout: When it is time to transmit the ENI, if this box is not checked the transmission will take place

regardless of whether or not the channel is busy. If this box is checked and the channel is busy (as indicated by

COR or VOX), the ENI will not be transmitted. Instead the unit will wait 2.3 seconds and then check again to see if

the channel is busy. If the channel is not busy at that time, the ENI will be transmitted. If, not the process will

repeat indefinitely.

Transmit Count: This sets the number of times the ENI will be sent.

Repeat Interval: This sets the time between ENI transmissions.

PTT Resets/Cancels ENI: If selected, pressing the PTT button will either reset the Lone Worker’s Transmit Delay

time or cancel the transmission of the ENI.

Live Mic Enable: If selected the unit will enable the mic of the radio to transmit mic audio to the dispatcher.

Revert to Clear: Currently not used.

Locator Tone Enable: If selected the unit will emit tones out the radio’s speaker after all Emergency ANI’s have

been sent. This feature is not available if Transmit Forever is checked.
