The Major 4a/5a is the newer design of the well-known Major 4/5 An alphanumeric LC Display with
background lighting has replaced the LED Display. A gooseneck microphone with a high dynamic
range is part of the standard equipment of Major 5a as well as Major 4a. By using a plain text based
menu structure the programmable features have been extended significantly and at the same time
programming has become more straightforward. All buttons are freely programmable. Hence, each
of the buttons can be assigned two different functions.
A radio set can be connected directly (multiwire) or via 2- or 4-wire line. All viable tone sequences
can be transmitted and interpreted.
With the optional TIM (telephone interface module) a dial-up connection to the telephone network
can be established. It can be used to forward a radio to the telephone network and also for remote
control of radio sets via analogous land-line. To gain access to the radio a dial-up connection is es-
tablished. Major 4a/5a (if a TIM is included) can be ordered with a software option that enables the
substitution of a permanent line by using a dial-up connection.
There are two sockets for headsets. One can be used for a remote PTT foot switch. The 7 digital
outputs can be used for remote channel select or for other functions. For operation an external 12-
volt power supply is necessary.
The Major 4a/5a can be programmed via the serial interface or keypad. It is also possible to connect
a printer or a terminal to the serial interface. For printers with a parallel interface an additional
interface is available.

Display Elements Major 4a / 5a
LC Display
All alphanumeric readouts are presented by a LC display with background lighting.
Status LEDs
Carrier Display (Squelch)
The carrier display LED can be controlled by voice (2-wire connection) or via squelch input
(using the radio set). If the light is on, the radio circuit is occupied, that is, a carrier signal
(carrier is keyed) is present.
PTT Display (Push-to-Talk)
The PTT display LED is on, if the transmitter is keyed. Keying of the transmitter is achieved
by pressing the PTT button during telephony or by sending a call.
Loudspeaker Display (Incoming Call)
The loudspeaker display LED is on, if the loudspeaker or the earphone capsule in the
handpiece are switched on.

Talking to the Radio
There are two different ways to talk to the radio.
By pushing the red PTT button the transmitter is switched on and the transmission LED is
lit. This can also be achieved by an external PTT (see Connections). Now, talking to the radio is
possible via the gooseneck microphone. After releasing the PTT button, the person on the radio
can be heard in the loudspeaker. The loudspeaker LED is lit. If the conversation is finished, the
loudspeaker can be switched off using the loudspeaker button
The transmitter (and the transmission LED) can also be switched on by pushing the PTT button at
the inside of the handpiece. Accordingly, the microphone and the loudspeaker of the handset are
used for conversation in this case. The conversation is terminated by simply hanging up the hand-
piece.
The loudspeaker is switched on after sending a call by pushing the red or the external PTT button
or upon reception of a call. However, it can also be activated manually via the loudspeaker button.
The loudspeaker is switched off manually (loudspeaker button) or automatically after a certain time
is elapsed. This loudspeaker timer is started when the loudspeaker is turned on and is reset as
long as a carrier is present or PTT is keyed.
If desired, this timer can also be disabled. Furthermore, the loudspeaker can be configured for
open-mode („always-on“, see Table of Registers, Register 050).
In order to set the desired volume the volume button is pushed (Major 5a) or the loudspeaker
button is pressed long (Major 4a). The display now shows „volume:“ and the present value (0-9).
Now the new volume can be set via the keypad. The chosen value is saved permanently (also
after power-off).
The Major can remember up to 10 short calls. These are transmitted by pushing the short call but-
ton followed by the respective number (0-9).
These short calls are programmed in the registers 000 to 009 (see Table of Registers, Registers
000-009)
With the standard settings, „select number:“ followed by the previously transmitted call is displayed
in the LCD. Of course, after power-on no number is displayed.
In order to send a call the variable digits of the tone sequence (see Table of Registers, register
010) first have to be entered. The tones entered via the keyboard are displayed right-justified in the
LCD. The transmission of the call is achieved by pushing the call button . Alternatively, calls
can be sent automatically after the last free number is entered (see Table of Registers, register
082).
