GENERAL INFORMATION
Midian’s SVR-1 is a simplex repeater maker that can be installed into a mobile or portable radio. The SVR-1
detects COR or VOX from an incoming transmission and records the incoming audio (up to 3 minutes). When the
COR or VOX is no longer detected the SVR-1 keys the radio and retransmits the recorded audio. The SVR-1
enables users to create low-cost vehicular repeaters or expand radio coverage into poor coverage areas.

RADIO PROGRAMMING

7100 Programming Instructions
It is necessary to program the radio before installing the unit. This is because the Option Board Feature of the
radio must be enabled in order to program the unit using the Motorola RIB box and cable or RIB-less cable and to
hear confirmation beeps from the radio after programming the unit.
1. In the Radio Configuration Window under the Option Board Tab, select Advanced Option Interface as the
Option Board Type. Do not check the Option Board Configuration Download box.
2. When programming the “Conventional Personality”, check the Option Board Feature box for all channels if
using a button to control repeat enable/disable. If doing repeat on a per channel basis, then check Option
Board Feature only for repeat enabled channels. Additionally the unit should be programmed to Power Up in
Store/Retransmit Mode.

The following step applies to the accessory connector and may be skipped by most users.
3. An accessory pin may be used to control the repeat enable/disable mode. This is useful in remote control
applications. To enable this feature, one of the radio accessory pins must be assigned to Option Board 1
(Input) via the CPS programmer. The MPS also needs to be configured to use this mode input (see page 17).
