DESCRIPTION
The Tactical Technologies Inc. Model CTR-751/V series ("Joey") is a 1 channel 1/2 Watt VHF-FM synthesized voice
transmitter, combined with a solid state recorder.
The transmitter and recorder combination ("Transcorder") requires 9 volts DC for its power supply, utilizes an external
antenna for the transmitter, and a single microphone for both the transmitter and recorder operations. It can be optionally
equipped with a scramble for added security.
The CTR-751 series transmitter operating frequencies are programmed via an open serial port on an IBM compatible PC.
The transmitter's firmware is compatible with ANY vintage IBM compatible PC's communications program - such as
Microsoft's Hyperterminal. The recorder can use the same PC serial port. Proprietary software for recorder operations is
included. You can also program the transmitter in the CST-751/V direct from the panel of a Citation 20 Synthesized
Intelligence Receiver Recorder Kit!
Features of the Joey Solid State Recorder include: Easily concealable, Multiple MONO recordings, Very low power consump-
tion, 2 Selectable sampling rates of 8 or 11 kHz, ability to download individual recordings, RS232 interface to standard PC
serial port, raw data download with audit trail identifiers and checksum information. The Joey recorder is also available with
either a 64Mbyte or 128Mbyte memory chip which respectively yields record times from 100 minutes to 440 minutes.
The supplied instructions are for the Window 95, 98, or XP operating systems.

1.) Connect the external antenna to the CTR-751 by inserting the
male end of the SMC type antenna connector on the transmitter to
the female connector end on the wire antenna. Twist the connector
clockwise to tighten (HAND TIGHT ONLY!).
2.) Connect the Microphone. Determine which of the two supplied
microphone configurations are best for your application: the long
leadwire microphone or the short/stubby microphone. Connect the
microphone by inserting the female end of the friction-locking 2 pin
connector on the microphone cable into the male connector found on
the CTR-751. This connector is keyed for proper installation. Push
the connectors firmly together.
3.) Connect the power lead to the transmitter. Connect the 9 VDC
battery lead by inserting the female end of the friction-locking 6 pin
connector on the power cable into the male connector found on the
CTR-751. This connector is keyed for proper installation. Push the
connectors firmly together.
4.) Any 9 VDC power supply (batteries, regulated supply, etc.) can be
applied to the CTR-751. When using disposable batteries, always use
either Alkaline or Lithium cells. Lithium cells are recommended for
longer operating life.
NOTE: DO NOT APPLY 12 VDC DIRECTLY TO THIS UNIT.
NOTE: THE CST-751 IS REVERSE POLARITY PROTECTED,
HOWEVER PLEASE BY SURE TO CONNECT THE + AND -
LEADS TO YOUR POWER SUPPLY CORRECTLY FOR PROPER
OPERATION OF THE TRANSMITTER. PAY PARTICULAR
ATTENTION TO THE MARKINGS ON SMALL BATTERIES.
WHEN USING THE FLYING LEAD CONNECTORS, THE
BLACK LEAD IS NEGATIVE AND THE RED OR WHITE
LEAD IS THE POSITIVE.
5.) Once power is applied to the CTR-751, the internal solid
state recording unit is ON and RECORDING. To turn the
recorder OFF, simply disconnect the power. Each time power is
applied to the unit, a new recording session begins.
6.) Turn ON the VHF transmitter. Locate the ON/OFF slide
switch. It is found between the antenna connector and the
microphone/power connectors on the top of the CTR-751. Turn
the transmitter ON by sliding this switch AWAY from the RED
DOT. The transmitter can be turned OFF by sliding the switch
TOWARDS the RED DOT.
NOTE: Once power is applied to the CTR-751, only the
transmitter can be turned ON or OFF. The recorder is always
ON.
7.) To turn the unit completely OFF, remove the power supply.

"Connect Using" pull down menu. Select the "Direct to Com
___" line that correlates to your Com Port.
c.) Select "OK" from the bottom of the window
d.) Your Com Port selection is automatically saved.
5.) Connect a 9 VDC battery to the battery terminal leads found
on the programming cable, and turn ON your Transmitter.
At this time, your computer screen should look similar to the
following screen shot:
Here are some commands to become familiar with:
f..........Begins the New Frequency programming
sequence.
v..........Verifies the frequency that is currently
programmed in the transmitter.
c.........Selects CLEAR transmission mode (for
units equipped with scrambling).
s..........Selects SCRAMBLE transmission mode (for
units equipped with scrambling).
Remember: All commands are lower case letters.
6.) Begin by VERIFYing the information about your transmitter.
Type a v.
Immediately upon your entering a "v", the program will report the unit's
ID (CTR-751/V) , and the frequency that is programmed into the current
channel. If your transmitter is equipped with scrambling capabilities, this
will be noted with an "S" after the model number (CTR-751/VS), and
whether the unit is in scrambled mode or clear mode (noted with a "c"
or an "s" before the frequency notation). The screen will look something
like this:
7.) Program your frequency
Type an f.
The computer will respond with "=1", as follows:
8.) The "1" is the 'hundreds" digit in your frequency (ie: 1xx.xxxx
Mhz). Now type the next 5 digits of your frequency.
Here is some information on VALID frequencies:
Your available frequencies are spaced in 12.5 kHz steps, beginning
with 150.0000 Mhz and ending with 174.0000 Mhz.
Simply put, "12.5 kHz steps" means that your frequency must end in
any of the following configurations:
xxx.x000
xxx.x125
xxx.x250
xxx.x375
xxx.x500
xxx.x625
xxx.x750
xxx.x875
xxx.x000
The first available frequency to you is 150.0000 Mhz. The
second is 150.0125 Mhz. The third is 150.0250 Mhz. And so on
through 173.9750, 173.9875, and 174.0000.
Your frequency will always start with a "1" - so that is pre-
programmed for you. And the last digit in your frequency will be
dictated by the second last digit, and the program will select that
last digit for you as well.
So, with a 7 digit frequency (xxx.xxxx Mhz) - and the first and
last numbers programmed for you (Dxx.xxxD Mhz) - you will
only have to enter 5 digits.
The first programmed digit (tens position) must be either a 5, 6,
or 7. The second (ones position) can be any number. The third
(1/10th position) can be any number. The fourth (1/100th
position) can be any number except a 4 or a 9. And the number
you select here will dictate the fifth number you are to program.
Program a 0 or a 5, your next number must be a 0. Program a 1 or
a 6, and your next number must be a 2. Program a 2 or a 7, your
next number must be a 5. Program a 3 or an 8, your next number
must be a 7. The previous list of examples shows this clearly.
And the 'last' digit in the frequency (1/10,000th position) will be
determined by that second last digit. If the second last digit is a 0
or 5, the last digit will be a 0. If the second last digit is a 2 or a 7,
the last digit will be a 5.
After you enter your valid 5 digits, the cursor will move to the
next line, similar to the following screen shot:
At this point, the program is awaiting another instruction from
you; either an f, v, c, or s. (Remember: c or s are only valid
entries on scrambled units.)
FOR SCRAMBLED UNITS:
At any point in the sequence where the program is awaiting an
input instruction, you can set the 'scramble' or 'clear' mode by
typing sv ("s" sets scramble mode, plus the "v" verifies the
programming) or cv ("c" sets to clear mode, plus the "v" verifies
the programming).
9.) After you have finished validating your entries, turn off your
transmitter, disconnect the cables, and close the computer
program.
Here is some information on INVALID frequencies:
If you enter an invalid frequency, the software will respond on
the screen as follows:
As you can see from the example, the frequency entered was
158.9685 MHz. This is invalid per the rules. The software
responds with a comma, then 6 zeros, and a carriage return. At this
point, the program has not updated your transmitter, and is
awaiting an input instruction (f, v, c, or s) from you. Enter an f
so that you may re-enter a correct, valid frequency.
Programming from a Citation 20 Receiver/Recorder Kit
Please consult your Citation 20 Operations Manual for directions
on programming transmitters directly from the Citation 20,
WITHOUT a separate computer!
The Joey's solid state recorder has been designed by Geonautics
International, an Australian Company, who is widely known in the
electronic surveillance field for their well engineered devices. The
recorder used in the Joey comes from their Whisper line of
equipment, and is a modified version of their A1 Whisper Tag.
The Whisper software package is used to control and download the
Joey Recorder. The program also offers limited playback features
through the standard Windows multimedia player.
INSTALLING YOUR RECORDER SOFTWARE
The computer program supplied to setup, playback, and maintain
the recordings you will make with your CTR-751 transcorder is a
module written by Geonautics for their stand alone Whisper line of
recorders. It is designed to operate under Microsoft's Windows 95
and 98 and XP operating systems. The software is called the
Whisper Player.
Installing the Whisper Player in Windows:
Insert the CD into your computer. If 'autorun' is enabled, the
installation program will automatically start. If it does not:
a. Click the START button.
b. Select RUN, and type
D:\ie\iesetup.exe

RECORDING AND PLAYBACK
NOTE: If the REC programming/download cable is connected to the
Joey, recordings can only be initiated via the Whisper Player
software.
Each time power (or a short) is applied a new FILE number and
recording will be created on the device.
Configuring the recorder for operations - programming
1.) Connect the CTR-751 REC programming/download cable to the
top of the Joey via the 6 pin connector. This connector is keyed
for proper installation. The cable will be marked with a "REC" -
indicating it is the cable for transmitter programming.
2.) Connect the D style 9 pin female connector to an open serial
port on your IBM compatible computer. If your computer's serial
port is a 25 pin connector, you will need to use a DB25 to DB9
serial adaptor (not included).
3.) Start the "Whisper Player" software.
4.) You must know the number of the Serial (Com) Port you have
attached the Joey to. The software comes ready to work with Com
1. If you are using Com 2, 3, or 4, you must select that port via the
"Serial Port" area of the software. Your serial port should be
configured for a data transfer rate of 115k baud.
5.) Apply power to the Joey by attaching a 9 VDC battery to the
battery connector found on the REC programming/download cable.
Once power is applied, the Joey and the software will 'handshake'.
After about 10 seconds, the software will report that the Joey is
ONLINE via the following response: $WSP, ONLINE. You will
see this in the Whisper Player Communications Window found in
the lower left corner of the software screen.
NOTE: You must wait for the Joey to report that it is ONLINE
before you can continue. If the unit does not report, disconnect
the 9 VDC battery, wait 5 seconds, then reapply the power to the
unit.
6.) Press the "LIST" button to see if the recorder has files
previously recorded on it. If the Joey has files on it, your
computer screen will look something like this:
