|
 | Status Display
On screen display of all critical parameters such as speed, mode, input source, and
selected functions. |
 | Self Contained Demodulator
Three-step shift selects either 170 Hz, 425 Hz or 850 Hz shift with manual fine tune
control of space channel for odd shifts. High/low tone pair Select. Mark only or space
copy capability for selective fading. Internal demodulator suitable for any speed up to
150 Baud. |
 | Printer Interface for Hard Copy
Centronics-compatible Interface for parallel input printers. |
 | Composite Video Output
Composite video output provides 1.0 Vpk-pk into 75 ohm for any standard video monitor.
Drake model 7030 recommended. |
 | RS-232 I/O Interface
Phono jacks provide RS232C connections In and out. |
 | Kansas City Standard AFSK Output
KCS tone pair of 2400 Hz mark and 1200 Hz space. |
 | Convenient Keyboard Arrangement
Keyboard layout IS the same as standard typewriter. |
 | Large Capacity Display Memory
Display memory contains 40 or 80 characters x 24 lines per page. Scrolling is
keyboard-selectable, forward and reverse through a total of 14,000 characters. |
 | Split-Screen
With a keyboard command, the display can be divided In two; the upper half for receive and
the lower half for transmit. Messages can be composed while receiving. |
 | Buffer Memory
3120 character keyboard buffer. |
 | Word Wrap-Around
In receive mode, word wrap-around prevents the last word on a line from
becoming
split in two. Moves whole word to next Iine. |
 | Automatic Transmit/Receive Switch
Automatic keyboard-operated transmit (KOX) or manual keyboard transmit.
Keyboard-selectable. |
 | Unshift on Space
Keyboard-selectable. Reverts to LETTERS case after reception of each space
character in Baudot code. |
 | Cursor Control
Full cursor control (up / down / left / right) available from keyboard. |
 | Line/Word Mode
Characters can be transmitted in word or line groupings. Keyboard-selectable. |
 | Automatic CR/LF
While transmitting, CR/LF IS automatically sent every 60, 72, or 80 characters.
Keyboard-selectable. |
 | Automatic Letters Code Insertion
LETTERS code can be transmitted continuously in a pause of transmitting from the
keyboard. Commonly called "IDLE" or "DIDDLE". |
 | Cw Identification
Keyboard-controlled cw Identification in RTTY modes. |
 | Echo Function
With keyboard Instruction, prerecorded cassette tapes can be read and
transmitted. |
 | Test Messages
Two built-in test messages. "RY" and "QBF" are
keyboard-selectable. |
 | Cw Practice

 | Oscilloscope Outputs
Mark and space channel filter outputs on rear panel. Supplements the tuning
LEDs and audio monitor. |
 | Audio Monitor
A built-In audio monitor circuit with automatic transmit/receive switching enables
checking of the transmit/receive tones. In the receive mode, it is possible to monitor the
output of the mark channel, the space channel, or incoming audio from the agc amplifier
prior to the channel filters. |
 | Selective Calling
Activated on reception of user defined "Sel-Call" characters and
terminated on receipt of user defined "End of Text" character sequence.
Automatic answer-back also available. |
 | Light Pen Graphics
A Iight pen (provided) may be used to create graphic Images which may be
transmitted to another Theta 9000E. |
 | Word Processing
Internal firmware contains a complete word processing system. 180 Iines of 72
characters may be entered, edited, stored on a cassette tape recorder, or printed.
Supports Insertions, deletions, word search, corrections, and margin justification. |
 | Single Power Supply
The Theta 9000E requires only 13.6 Vdc @ 1.3 amp. Plugs into 13.6 Vdc accessory
jack on PS7 or PS75 power supplies. |
 | Effective Packaging for RFI Protection
Well designed metal cabinet and protective circuits prevent RFI. |
