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.

Sockets Pinout Major 4a/5a
All AF in/outputs are equipped with transformers
and, hence, potential-free. PIN 5 is for supply
(+12V) of external devices (LIM-AC, FT634C).
Attention: Do not use PIN 5 to supply a radio
set. 200 mA output current is not sufficient.
There are two sockets for connecting a headset.
One is for connecting the headset, the other
for the use of an external PTT button (e.g. foot
switch)
The digital connections can be configured as
inputs or outputs, respectively. Usually, these are
used as outputs for remote channel select.
All of the schemes show the sockets as viewed from the rear of the Major.
