Product features are as below

1. Built-in USB sound card chip, with high-quality audio input and output.

2. Built-in USB serial chip. E.g. launch control using RTS, receive control using DSR.（ECHOLINK User）

3.  The built-in audio detection chip controls the radio’s PTT button and outputs the sound to the speakers by the radio-compute-controller. （ZELLO User）

4. The control-software forwards the input-voice of the microphone with the detection of the SQL radio signal from the USB chip（ZELLO User）

5.  The USB-Radio Interface is compatible for AllstarLink.
   GPIO Detect COS and CTCSS input . GPIO outputs and control the PTT (ASL soundcard function).

6.  The user’s computer will not get Power/RF interference noise from the power supply from radio because the R1 has the optocouplers and the isolating transformer.

7.  R1 introduce the of electric conductor or circuit (inductance) to isolate Power/RF interference and high-frequency radiation.

8.  Full Metal case, shields all other interference.

9.  Industrial design with standard production process.

10. LED status indictors.

Control Principle:-
In general, the Internet voice chat software, with the help of output audio controller that detects audio input from the radio PTT, hence the audio will transmit over. On the other end, once radio receive the audio, the controller detects the SQL signal through the USB control network, the voice chat software will forward to the audio to the radio. In this way, it will be on the radio-linked network.
Controller applications:-
By getting the radio link to the network, you can set up radio links or relay links and extend the range radio transceiver or repeater, therefor global radio link is achieved. The softwares that this product supports are :-
AllstarLink、ECHOLINK, ZELLO, SSTV, psk31, SKYPE, QT, YY and other chat intercom and data transfer software.
Notes: There are some softwares are that not support on USB and control detection, thus at this time, while on the computer microphone input, we can use the software VOX function。

In February 2023, manual accessories 6-pin thread enhanced version, tentative number: 6P-10P conversion board, 6P-10P conversion board series accessories 6P-6P- plus cable. Including but not limited to the following models for connection use:
YAESU: FTM-100, FTM-200, FTM-300, FTM-400,FTM-6000 6P-10P conversion board series accessories 6P-6P- plus cable Description: The following is the picture of R1 connected to FTM-400: ( R 1 Switch position:Y/ K/ I )

The data transmission of the TNC port of FTM-400 is enabled by default. It is disabled by the “SQL” signal level control triggered by panel “A” and “B” receive frequencies. Therefore, the reception frequency SQL level for panels “A” and “B” should be set to favor “High Threshold”. If the SQL level is set too low, receiving SQL is opened due to radiation interference, which may cause port data transmission to be disabled.

Select: USB serial number
Regarding on this R1 appliance box, please be informed that when PC is restarted, it will become abnormal. Please power off/turn off the radio power supply first, then only restart the PC.
The reason for the above problem is related to the driving control principle of the R1 and PC. There is no solution on this problem yet.
For the extra info, if the R1 control encounter abnormality after the PC turned off, please set “PC shutdown = USB no power supply” in the PC BIOS.
MMSTV Set reference Select RX MODE : AUTO Select: USB serial COM number, Select Exclusive Lock and RTS While Scan

Below is the connection to use in ZeLLO

set the audio on both input and output to USB PnP Sound Device (windows operating system already has the integrated driver)
Important function microphone settings: System audio management interface, do not select the microphone to enhance or AGC, if you select the option , the audio of other party will be very loud and noisy.
Select ZeLLO detection as ” keyboard F7

Using the same settings, you can also control other keyboard trigger software, for example: ESChat…
Note: Note: The new version of ZELLO supports any keyboard value, and the internal default keyboard value of R1-2023 is “F7”. Therefore, only “F7” can be selected. If you need other keyboard values, you need to change the keyboard values inside R1-2023.

Connection to use in YY: ( YY is only available in Chinese Simplified version) On the YY channel, select both the microphone input and speaker output to “USB PnP Sound Device” on the system audio management interface, please do not select microphone enhancement or AGC, if you select the option, the audio of other party will be very loud and noisy If you want to set the external radio to receive the audio sent through the network from ach other, choose to press the mouse to speak: the middle button (selected the green point,  and click the middle mouse button).
External radio transmission is the internal default control, it does not need to set.
Tip: The middle mouse button control function should be reserved for YY software. In order to avoid mis-forwarding network communications, other software can not verlaps/reuse/override the middle mouse button. The last two suggestions are to disable the voice prompt function. This is to avoid miss trigger on communication.
