1.2. Description
The telephone hybrid is a two wire to four wire converter which provides the
interface between a caller on the telephone line and the input to the mixing desk. Built to a very high
specification, it is simple to install and automatically adapts to line conditions and programme content.
Analogue signal limiting, controlled from the DSP, is used in the send and receive paths to ensure that
signal break-up and severe overload problems do not occur.

Page 1-2 Introduction & Installation
HY02 Digital Eurocard TBU User's Guide
Both the input and the output are transformer balanced providing complete isolation.
The unit has a line connect control facility and the equipment is fitted with K-break and dial tone
disconnect as standard. All connections are via DIN 41612 Type B, 32 way ‘A’ loaded edge connector.
By using a high power DSP and a high quality 16 bit dual codec, the HY02 Digital
gives some of the best audio figures available - it provides full adaptive echo cancellation to 28msec
and gives unwanted sideband rejection figures of 69dBu on tone, reference peak output of +8dB. The
HY02 Digital has been designed to achieve the best possible audio performance from a telephone line.

1.4. Installing the HY02 Digital TBU
Connect the power and earth connections as per the information given in the
Warranty and Safety Information section of the handbook. The hybrid unit should be connected with
reference to Figure 1-1 below.
The telephone line NTTP port should be connected using a BT 6/502 cable mounted
connector into a suitable BT wall jack socket. A simple telephone handset can be used to take and
make calls when plugged into a handset connector BT 605A.
The Line Input is balanced bridging and will accept normal signals at 0dBu peaking
to +8dBu from a sound mixer ‘clean feed’. The input circuitry to the HY02 Digital has a very effective
limiter which will prevent high level overloading problems.
The Line Output connection will deliver a balanced/floating low impedance signal of
0dBm from the telephone line. The output of the digital hybrid unit is normally 0dBu from a balanced
source of 50 ohms or less across the useful bandwidth of the equipment. The bandwidth is restricted
by the line conditions between 250 Hz and 3.5 kHz. The output stage is capable of driving into 600
ohm loads at up to +8dBu. It is not necessary to terminate this output.
Isolation of better than 69dB is created between the input and output connectors
when the hybrid unit is functioning on an exchange line. The equipment may require some adjustment
to work with PBX systems.
The power supply needs ±15V dc to power the electronic hybrid processor from a
230V, 50Hz ac supply. The earth connection provided at the rear of the equipment provides protection
for the user against dangerous line fault conditions. A Remote Line Connect ( Divert ) switch should
be connected to control the acceptance and release of calls.
There are jumper gain controls available to the user for setting both the Receive and
Transmit levels through the equipment.
If connecting the DHY 02EC eurocard to a eurocard ringing detector, please
configure the connections as per Figure 1-2.

Introduction & Installation Page 1-5
HY02 Digital Eurocard TBU User's Guide
The earth bond at the edge connector must be connected to a technical earth to
ensure the safe operation of the equipment under all line conditions.
1.5. Using the HY02 Digital
1.5.1. Receiving a Call
With the equipment connected as in Figure 1-1, calls may be received and detected
by the ringer in the telephone handset. To receive the call, lift the handset and establish contact with
the caller. The call may be diverted to the telephone hybrid means of the Remote Line Connect Switch
(Pin 30 ). The hybrid unit will now act as a 4 wire to 2 wire converter with a signal input at the Line
Input and telephone signal output at the Line Output.
The call may be cleared by rusing the Remote Line Connect switch, or by means of
the K-break provided in the equipment. Automatic line clearance is provided when the caller hangs up,
if jumper JP2 is set ( default condition ).
Alternatively, the ringing detector card, RD 02EC, may be connected to the series
connection ‘Handset’ of the DHY 02EC and the handset connected to the ‘Handset’ connection of the
RD 02EC ( See Figure 1-2 ). Ringing tone will energise the Remote Line Connect switch through the
interconnection between the two units. The call will then be picked up automatically and passed to the
telephone hybrid.
With both auto-answer and auto-clearance in use, call handling can be completely
automatic in operation.
1.5.2. Making a Call
To initiate a call, lift the Handset and dial the required telephone number. When the
call has been established, use the Remote Line Connect switch and the call will be handed over to the
telephone hybrid unit. To clear the line at the end of the call, press the Remote Line Connect switch.
Please note that any adjustments and settings should be carried out by
competent engineering personnel.

HY02 Digital Eurocard TBU User's Guide
This section of the handbook answers some of the
popular questions asked about the HY02 Digital
eurocard unit and the way that it operates. If you have
any questions regarding the operation of the HY02
Digital, please contact your nearest distributor, or
Sonifex directly.
Q : Why do I need a telephone balance unit ?
A : To convert a two wire telephone pair ( duplex ) to a four wire ( 2 simplex ) one input pair and one
output pair.
Q : What is a mix-minus signal and why do I need one ?
A : A mix-minus signal ( also called a clean-feed ) is an output from the mixing console which
includes signals from all of the audio channels except the channel that is allocated to the telephone
line. It is the signal that is used in the TBU send input, which is sent to the caller on the telephone line.
There are two reasons why the clean-feed signal is needed : Firstly, the TBU is designed to separate the
caller audio from the desk output audio, with an output consisting mostly of the caller audio. If the
caller audio is sent to the TBU send input, a feedback loop is created ( causing howling on the line )
and the hybrid can not separate the two signals. Secondly, the caller should hear what the other
listeners are hearing and not hear themselves.
Q : What are the main advantages between a conventional analogue hybrid and the
HY02 Digital eurocard ?
A : There are two : The main advantage is that the HY02 Digital rejects signals equally across its
frequency band which results in a much better total rejection ratio. The second advantage is that the
HY02 Digital can handle line echo and reflections of up to 28msec. This provides dramatic
improvements on rejection ratios over satellite links.
Q : Can I use open speakers with the HY02 Digital ?
A : Yes. Due to the echo cancellation, the HY02 Digital can cope with a high level of acoustic
feedback without it becoming unstable.

2. Circuit Description & Controls
The HY02 Digital Eurocard Telephone Hybrid consists of TBU circuits mounted on
a eurocard sized PCB and usually housed in a host unit rack. The card must be used with a BABT
approved power supply to keep compliance - isolation is achieved by means of the barriers created at
the power supply and the hybrid electronics.
2.1. Electronic Digital Hybrid Unit Circuit
Description
The electronic digital hybrid unit comprises the following sections (see block
diagram, Figure 2-1 ).
2.1.1 Input circuits and limiter.
2.1.2 Telephone line barrier and transformer.
2.1.3 Output circuits.
2.1.4 Divert switch logic.
2.1.5 Line balancing electronics.
2.1.6 Dial tone detect circuits.
2.1.7 Displays
2.1.1. Input Circuits and Limiter
The line input connection at PL1 pins 16 & 17 is coupled directly to the line bridging
input transformer TR2. The input impedance is greater than 10K ohms balanced floating with a high
common mode rejection ratio. The input transformer is coupled to the limiter transistors Q11 and Q12
and amplifier Q3b via R25, C10, C11 and R27. The limiter output delivers full bandwidth signals
which drives the digital processor. Analogue signal limiting controlled from the DSP is used in the
send and receive paths to ensure that signal break-up and severe overload problems do not occur. The
telephone send circuit drives the line via a transformer/capacitor/divert relay combination. The receive
circuit uses an independent transformer coupled bridging circuit. This is connected to the send circuit
in two wire mode and to a separate input for four wire operation. An analogue sidetone cancellation
network is switched in if the board is ‘on-line’ and in two wire mode.

Page 2-2 Circuit Description & Controls
HY02 Digital Eurocard TBU User's Guide

Circuit Description & Controls Page 2-3
HY02 Digital Eurocard TBU User's Guide
2.1.2. Telephone Line, Barrier and Transformer
The telephone line port is a two wire connection into the apparatus through a line
cord and jack BT 6/502, with a surge arrestor BT 14A from the A and B wires to earth. The line
connection is switched by a divert switch that controls a relay between the hybrid unit and the handset
connected through a BT 605A connector.
The line is held, on the equipment side, by an electronic line holding circuit Q9, Q8
and Q7, the A leg fed through a 2.2 uF 250V d.c. blocking capacitor to the line transformer TR1
(ETAL P1200). A pair of zener diodes arranged in a back to back configuration across the primary of
the line transformer, are arranged to act as overvoltage protection. The line transformer is designed to
meet BS 6305. Figure 2-2 shows a schematic diagram of this part of the ciruitry.
2.1.3. Output Circuits
The output from the codec Q19 is presented at balanced line level via a servo
balanced output stage. Amplifier Q2d and transistors Q14 and Q15 form a low impedance push-pull
amplifier driving the output balancing transformer TR3. The diodes D16 and D17, R39 and R40 form a
bias chain for the drive transistors. The input at Q2d is filtered by R53 and C27 a simple low pass
filter.
The balanced output at TR3 is less than 50 ohms at the frequencies used and has a
high common mode rejection. The output signal at TR1 consists of the telephone line signal only, with
the local clean feed content nulled out to better than -69dB ref +8dB peak output.
2.1.4. Divert Switch Logic
With the system unenergised the logic connects the telephone line to the handset
through relay RL1 relaxed contacts.
The logic circuits Q1a and Q1b change the state of the relay contacts via Q23, Q19,
Q1f and Q5, diverting the telephone line to the equipment, when the divert switch is activated. The
logic is edge triggered and will accept remote commands. This logic also drives the indicator lamp at
the switch and remote lamp contacts.
The logic holds the relay in the divert condition until either power is removed or the
switch is operated again. K break and dial hang up tone will also untrigger the latch when required to
do so.
A signal from the logic operates input muting when the handset is in use preventing
spurious output signals at the equipment.

Page 2-4 Circuit Description & Controls
HY02 Digital Eurocard TBU User's Guide
2.1.5. Line Balancing Electronics
The DHY 02 is designed to achieve the best possible audio performance available
from a telephone line. To this end, a high quality 16 bit dual codec is used. The equipment ensures that
the dynamic range is as large, and the distortion and noise are as small as possible.
The send audio signal from the codec is processed via the DSP before being sent to
the telephone line. The send signal is checked for excess level and the input analogue signal is limited
as above if the signal is found to be overloading. The signal is then high-pass filtered, and, if enabled,
acoustic cancellation is implemented.
2.1.5.1 Duplex Control
Transmit/receive path level locking :
Off position : No processing.
Low position : +12dB dynamic levelling.
High position : +24dB dynamic levelling.
Attack and release time 1dB per 5msec. Hysteresis 8dB for no processing.
2.1.5.2 Adaption System
Network cancellation of 28ms. Double-talk detection and normalised adaptive FIR
system used with pink noise cancellation
2.1.5.3 Send Circuit
Transmit set to low :
Maximum output (soft limited) 0dBM
Sensitivity for max output : +6dB
Maximum input level : +20dB
Distortion at -1dBM to line : 0.1%

Circuit Description & Controls Page 2-5
HY02 Digital Eurocard TBU User's Guide
Maximum output level to line (soft limited) : +6dBM
Tx LED sensitivity : -7dB on, -10dB off
Output noise to line : -66dB
2.1.5.4 Receive Circuit
Receive set to low:
Gain : +9dB
Maximum output : +8dB (soft limited)
Distortion : 0.1% before limiting
Maximum input level : 20dBm
Noise : -66dB (-77dB off line)
Rx LED sensitivity : -14dB on, -17dB off at output
Frequency response : -3dB 250HZ, flat to 3.5 kHz.
The cancellation uses FIR filters with a normalised signal dependent adaption
algorithm. The adaption is disabled during double-talk and when the signals are too low in level. The
adaption coefficients are held digitally and are not subject to drift when no signals are present.
Typically 40dB of rejection is achieved with real signals although 60dB rejection can be measured
using test signals into dummy lines. Send and receive levels are set up by on-board links.
Although the board works in full duplex mode, links can program signal dependent
half duplex operation; this enhances the overall sidetone rejection/stability with little degradation to the
apparent full duplex operation.
2.1.5.5 Hardware Control
The DSP is used to control all facets of the operation of the board. On power up, the
digital devices are checked for correct operation and a status led flashes if errors are found. The DSP
reads the onboard links and sets the operational mode signal levels accordingly. The DSP also controls
the divert status of the board via the codec auxiliary data I/O channel. The signals are software
‘debounced’ for stable operation.
The send and receive LEDS are processed via the DSP. These have hysterisis built in
to minimise ‘chattering’. The divert relay and two/four wire mode control is driven via the DSP.
The signal is checked for overload, and digitally limited if needed. The ‘Tx LED’ is
turned on if the outgoing signal is above -14dB and the Tx signal is gain reduced if found to be below -
24dB. The Tx level is adjusted before being sent to the codec send port. The signal is processed in
16/32 bits throughout, to maintain good audio performance. The receive signal from the codec is
processed via the DSP before being presented to the output. The receive signal is checked for excess
level and the input analogue signal is limited if the signal is overloading. The signal is then high-pass
filtered and, if enabled, network cancellation is implemented.
The signal is checked for overload and digitally limited if needed and the receive is
disabled if the board is ‘off line’. The ‘Rx LED’ is turned on if the signal is above -14dB and signal is
gain reduced ( i.e. noise reduction is introduced ) if it is below -24dB. The signal is also gain reduced if
levelling is desired, and the send signal is dominant. Receive level is adjustable from 9 to 21dB.
2.1.5.6 Digital Cancellation Control
Fixed sidetone cancellation occurs in two wire mode prior to DSP processing. Full
adaptive network cancellation is achieved by DSP means. Echo cancellation is 28ms.
2.1.6. Dial Tone Detectors
Dial tones presented to the equipment at the termination of a call, ( hang up tone )
can be detected by the equipment and can be used to disconnect the HY02 Digital from the telephone
line as an automatic process.
Since there are several hang-up tones in use worldwide, there are jumper settings at
JP8, JP9 and JP10 to select the various possibilities :

Page 2-6 Circuit Description & Controls
HY02 Digital Eurocard TBU User's Guide
a) Single or dual tones
b) Pulsed or continuous tones
c) Long or short cadences.
The tone frequencies are detected by two independent tone decoders Q17 and Q18
each with centre frequency setting presets RV2 at 350 Hz and RV1 at 440 Hz.
Detected signals are processed by the logic at Q23 and present an unlatching signal
to the disconnect circuitry at Q6.
Alternatively when the caller hangs up the line voltage increases. This is detected by
Q7 and coupled by opto-isolator Q4 which creates a disconnect signal at Q6. This disconnection is the
K break.
2.1.7. Displays
There are three LEDs mounted directly on the circuit board which provide
information about the transmit and receive signals and status information :
The LD1 Status LED indicates any error conditions at switch on by means of a flash
code :
Number of Flashes Error
3 Q21 error.
4 Q22 Test 1 error.
5 Q22 Test 2 error.
6 Q19 Codec IRQ error.
The flashing stops after approximately one minute and then begins a high speed
read/write of the device in question. If any of these errors should occur, please contact your nearest
Sonifex distributor.
LD2, the transmit LED, and LD3, the receive LED, are on whenever transmitting
and receiving respectively.

see Figure 2-3, overleaf. For normal operation of the equipment, these controls will not need to be
altered.“Set” or “Enabled” implies that the jumper is on.
Do not adjust these settings without consulting a technical information file.
2.2.1. Jumpers
JP1 Controls whether the Remotes connections are actuated by momentary
or permanent contacts. Set over 1 & 2 for momentary. Set over 2 & 3
for permanent.
JP2 Set for line disconnect ( default ). If the caller hangs-up, this will drop
the line off using K-break.
JP3 Transmit Gain Adjust. The level of the output sent by the unit depends
on which of the three settings is selected. With no jumper set, -6dB is
sent to the line for a reference 0dB input signal. When set over 1 & 2,
or 2 & 3, -12dB and 0db respectively are sent to the line ( i.e. ± 6dB
change in level ).
Jumper
Setting
Transmit Level
( ref 0db input )
1 & 2 -12dB
None ( Default ) -6dB
2 & 3 0dB
JP4 Factory set on pins 2 & 3 - do not adjust.
JP5 Receive Gain Adjust. The level of the input received by the unit
depends on which of the three settings is selected. With no jumper set,
a -12dB signal received is output at 0dB. Setting a jumper over pins 1
& 2, or 2 & 3, adds +6dB and +12dB to the level, respectively. Set the
level so that the meter readings peak at the 0dB scale mark.

JP6 Factory unset - do not adjust.
JP7 Factory set on pins 1 & 2 - do not adjust.
JP8 Controls disconnect tones : Set for single tone, unset for dual tone
(UK).
JP9 Controls disconnect tones : Set for pulse tone ( Belgium, France ), unset
for continuous disconnect ( UK ).
JP10 Controls disconnect tone burst : Set for long burst ( 4 secs ), unset for
short ( 2 secs ) disconnect tone burst ( UK ). It is the length of time that
the line tone has to be present before the automatic disconnect operates.
JP11 Set for dial tone detect ( hang up tone ). If JP2 is connected and the K-
break has failed, this will automatically hang the line up.
JP12 Link for instant reset.
